Ia this blog wrong, or does someone not understand English? Above, the response to Hardin's question: "..would you have seen it from your seat" is "No." But the headline on the first page of the website says that the witness says she would have seen it if it happened......
Read the questions again...
R: Did you see Ms. Osteen grab and hit Ms. Brown. Would you have seen it from your seat?
Perhaps the witness was answering the "did you see" portion of the question and not the "would you have seen" part of the question.
I see the same thing on every blog and discussion board I visit. People pay attention to one little portion and that is all they see. Read the entire thing, then go back and read it again. Selective reading will get you the same results as selective hearing and selective memory.
This is a case about money and greed....
It needs to be thrown out!
Psst. Hey, you, taxpayer. You're paying the judge, court reporter, jurors, bailiff and other government personnel in this stupid case so a lazy flight attendant can try to steal money from rich people who were mean to her while she was at work (Awwww, poor wittle baby!). Sucker!!!!!
Well I'm torn. I see that from the flight attendant's view, she could be aimming for the big pyoff. The idea of her hind quarters and religious problems are a joke.
But I can and have seen people like the Olsteen's who have believed their own headlines. If she did push, shove or hit - yes cotinue. If she tried to enter the cockpit, yes continue.
The one fly in the oinment for me is why did they pay the$3,000.00 fine if s was innocent.
I don't have selective reading. She already answered the question twice that she never saw the assault. If she is not answering 'No' to the question posed, then that question is not answered - and there is no evedence entered that she she was in a position to see around Osteen's back.
