      This is a common tactic employed by covert narcissists. They challenge the most simple question in order to imply that the other party is not articulate or clear and then they engage in circular conversations. It's a form of manipulation and gaslighting I doubt it has anything to do with buying time or gaining clear understanding.
      Notice his manipulation attempt with the question about him telling the dispatcher and Owen's that he checked pulses before calling 911. The prosecution played the recordings and Alex said, see, that's what I said not what you said.
      Having been around a close loved one who did this, I can tell you it's exhausting, which is exactly what they intend.

      like there are so many reasons an innocent person would do the same things under the same circumstances. It’s a completely meaningless issue to point out. Nobody actually cares about the concept of a fair trial though. If they decide somebody was guilty then the prosecutor is actually a hero for something as manipulative as this.

I think he and his lawyers thought they'd pull it off. I think that was Poot's statement to the press..."AM thought he could pull it off."
