Defense witness: Don't put words in my mouth
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 2 дек 2012
- Looks like one of the defense's final witnesses wasn't ready to play nice with prosecutor David Walgren. During an intense cross-examination Thursday, Dr. Robert Waldman accused Walgren of putting words in his mouth. The judge stepped in and told Dr. Waldman that that's how cross examinations usually work. Walgren asked the judge to strike several of Dr. Waldman's responses because he was being "unresponsive." When Walgren asked Dr. Waldman how many hours each week he did dialysis work, it took the doctor about a minute and a half of back and forth before he could explain.

That is simple the guilty party, one who causes harm to another with knowledge and intent to do so. In this short minute it is the attorney who is trying to set up the Dr. to say what he wants him to say to use against someone or him... probably to "depose" the Doctor so he can discredit his testimony and thus the voracity, reliability and relevance of his testimony.

@no way That's not really appropriate in this case. The witness responded to court instructions when asked to do so by the judge and although his answers do seem uncooperative and perhaps even evasive, that doesn't constitute contempt of court.
This witness has probably been HEAVILY coached by the defense team in how they want him to answer to the prosecution. And asking the kind of qualifying questions he does, and trying to remove the teeth from what the cross-examiner is asking, is a legitimate tactic.

I’d hire the doctor as a lawyer...

Easy to discover. Simply check his billing records. Suddenly you will find he was working many medical jobs all full time at 160+ hours a week and depositing the paychecks.
😂😂😂..this killed me
Anyone that can't (or won't) answer a simple question like that is clearly embarrassed by the answer. His COMPETENCY is being questioned and if he gave the true answer of how much he works in dialysis per week the answer is probably 4 hours per week, thereby revealing that he doesn't know what the heck he's doing and is just dabbling a little bit in the field.

@@kristkratos I disagree with you. Doctors should only be corrected if the title "Dr." is the topic of question, or if their profession is currently being used to further some aim (like a doctor is being cross-examined).
No one should EVER correct someone -- especially the damn doctor him/herself -- if "Mr." is used instead of "doctor". Testifying in court, or doing duty at the hospital are nearly the only situations where a doctor should even think of being referred to as DOCTOR.

A lawyer never asks a question he doesn't know the answer already
Blassas Tugan 🤣🤣🤣 I use to tell my ex I don’t ever ask questions I don’t already know the answer to.
People do say that. I guess because questions are asked in court to get facts into evidence, not to elicit information as they usually would be. If you don't know the answer, it's best not to ask as you don't know how helpful (or truthful) the answer will be!

Addiction dr is a hard profession to be in. They have a high rate of lawsuits bc the addicts themselves either think it’s easy money for more substances or that it’s entirely the doctors fault if they go back to it.
Folks , this guy was likely an "expert witness" called by the defense. This probably wasn't his first time in the courtroom so he knows exactly how to "work" the questioning.
Exactly and the prosecutors whole goal is to try and poke holes in a “expert witness” testimony. Or just basically make him look like he isn’t an expert in front of the jury. Or who ever. I would assume That’s why he would not specifically answer the amount of time he works “in dialysis” because to someone not in the medical field the amount of hours a dr would be there would seem very minuscule.
@@k45207 Also time 'working in dialysis' is wholly unquantifiable, and inappropriate to gauge whether he is an expert. The doctor is right, he has patients, he sees them, he reviews them. The dialysis itself is done by a machine obviously and he doesn't need to sit guard while the thing works, so the amount of time he works in dialysis is immaterial to his actual expertise.
Osteotome that’s is correct “working in dialysis” is a ridiculously worded question. The act of dialyzing is just a machine working lol the problem is the dr. Is back pedaling from the start. The first question, I mean if you can even call it a question lol “ and you also do the dialysis work” and he answers “I do” which kind of green lights the weird line of questioning lol And to your point I’ve never really even seen a dr in a dialysis center, because what would they do there lol I just don’t think they he spends much time with pt’s with ESRD as there primary care dr. especially as it sounds like he works for a treatment facility.
@@k45207 yeah in the UK dialysis units typically run by nurses and healthcare assistants. There are doctors on the ward on call but they have other more important things to do generally and are only called when there's an issue. So if I were a diabetes doctor I'd say I'm technically working for the dialysis unit when I'm on call which may be 20ish hours a week
True, he does seem to be one and I understand that expert witnesses are pulled in as career testifiers, to push a narrative. But that doesn't change the prosecution's clear misdirection and entrapment attempts. What we saw here was not something you can use to push for either side morally. But if this is the state of the law, then it should be changed.
For people saying he should have just answered the questions as the lawyer asks them, should probably watch a few cross examination processes first. It's basically a game of chess. If a laywer is asking those questions, he's doing it to discredit the witness. And the witness is one move ahead of the lawyer every time in this instance. It might seem like he's being 'petty' when what he's actually doing is side-stepping the trap that the lawyer is putting out. If that lawyer is good at his job (and I've no doubt he is) the questions are designed to push the witness into saying something that will undermine his testimony. He's every right to give his answers in a way that doesn't unfairly prejudice his testimony.
Niko Cross examination is not always used to discredit the witness, In this case it seems that Mr. Walgren's tries to lay the groundwork to elicit helpful testimony for The People. The Doctor may have thought that Mr. Walgren sought to bash him, but the Dr.'s evasiveness came across badly to the jury. The witness, in this case, discredited himself more by trying to evade the questions than by just anwering truthfully.
Quinn Eibert. I didn't say prosecution is 'always' trying to discredit the witness. I said when the prosecution asks these questions, he most certainly is looking to undermine the Dr. I didn't see anything in what the witness said, that made him look discredible.
Niko Fair enough. The way the Doctor seems discreditable, in my eyes, is because of his evasiveness. The questions posed seem easy to answer, and the doctor's fairly hostile responses make him seem uncooperative -- make him seem as if he's hiding something.
The questions asked you could see were aimed to try and discredit him though. Easy answers yes how ever they were asked in such a way that would possibly give some discredit. If I asked you if you borrowed money and have yet to return it or asked if you had a loan that you intended to pay back which sounds better and which is asked maliciously to discredit a statement (obviously that question wasn't used in this case to simplify it) if you chose the 1st it would open up means to prove your disloyal to keeping your bargains up thus you're untrustworthy.
Even the questions where he was asked with his picture on the company site that X means this, if he said yes it traps him into that statement but saying yes I think its a great statement of the company (as a whole not individual) Word play is a lawyers game, which is why they word questions the way they do.
TorrentOfficial I agree with you actually. What I'm really stressing is that because the questions are (seemingly) easy to answer, the witness's evasiveness is off putting to the jury. He might know what's coming up, but it's better for the witness to go down the garden path and answer incisive questions than to mud wrestle and lose credibility early. The Pros will eventually get the answers he's looking for.
I don't know why I like this doctor's testimony so much but I rewatch this every once in a while.
Same. I think it's absolutely hilarious. So many aspects of it crack me up
This guy was a hard ass but the lawyer still held his ground and was able to rephrase his questions adequately to get him to answer enough of the questions he wanted him to answer.
@PELA MELA wasting everyone's time by being difficult is not "in check", the attorney still got the exact answer he wanted. it just took the doctor 5 minutes of willful misinterpretation and combativeness to get there. he's not smart just because he said everything in a thoughtful, measured tone. no matter how slippery he tried to be, he still gave the answer the cross-examiner knew he would in the end.
@PELA MELA you are literally commenting on how well the doc wasted the court's time while bemoaning me for wasting yours. Bummer.
@PELA MELA and still you reply.
@PELA MELA someone's got a case of the last wordsies
@PELA MELA you're objectively wrong. the lawyer wanted the doctor to say that sometimes his care is better than other doctors' care, and after a lot of fighting, the doctor said yes. the doctor lost.
Love watching lawyers lose their bearing when they're caught off guard by someone intelligent. Haha.

Arrest him no balls
He was not intelligent. He was hired by the defense because he is paid to be evasive as to the facts of this case. He even throws in an impromptu commercial for Malibu Bullshit Hospital. He got paid to evade, and the prosecutor could of been a better lawyer, but they get paid to plea bargain, not to actually go to a real trial.

Love how this guy does not feel intimidated by the lawyer, and that he is both confident, comfortable to temain true to his profession whilst giving evidence. I also feel the judge in this trial can see that too ⚖
Interesting observation. My life experience made me understand that doctors who work in drug addiction treatment field are used to deal with liars, manipulators, deceivers, frauds and tricksters of all sorts. And that is why this Doctor is not intimidated by the lawyer, since lawyers, just like most drugs addicts, are pathological liars, tricksters and professional manipulators. If lawyers said the truth they'd end up in "Liar Liar" movie.
Doctor simply treated him like one of his patients.
I was watching this and realized my wife works with him in dialysis. I’ve been listening to stories about him for the past 7 years and they all now make sense.
I don't understand why more people don't just see what's going on here. This doctor is a DEFENSE witness. When the defense was questioning him, there was no animosity, no parsing of statements, no insistence upon "specific" questions. He had no problem whatsoever explaining himself in rather boring detail to any and all defense questions which were, just like with this prosecutor, complex and multi-layered questions requiring complex and multi-layered responses. Now all of a sudden he wants to get his Irish up and do this ridiculous song and dance to avoid answering the prosecutor's questions by insisting on a yes or no format? The judge should have held him in contempt and sent him to County for 30 days just to refresh his memory of how easy it is if a witness simply....TELLS THE TRUTH!!!
@@viking956 The flat truth isn’t always what matters in a courtroom. Of course a defence witness is going to be more guarded when being cross-examined by the prosecution. Because even if the witness or the defence did absolutely nothing wrong, it’s literally the prosecution’s job to trip them up, twist their words, and make it appear as though they did. It’s what they get paid for. They need the win and at the end of the day, that’s what matters.
The witness threw glib, non-specific, embellish, denigrate, cast dispersion, a function of, and negatively into his answers with ease. His superior command of the English language gave him a huge advantage in this situation.
So many ppl think he's stupid but he's answering very smart way doesn't give him a hit .

I’ve watched this so many times. and yet I still pay it a visit here and there.
They lawyer only has circumstantial reasoning and needs to confirm that, the witness makes a nonsense of such generalised arguments and more importantly destroys their "Bingo ... Bango ... Bongo ..." emotional power (hey jury it's as simple as A leads to be leads to C) ... an act of genus on the part of the witness ... in essence he is saying , prove the specifics of the case and I am going to make you pay for characterization (generalizations) that amount to slurs, in essence you don't have a case because you're making stuff up ...

As a person who has been in treatment this Doctor is absolutely correct. Medically Assisted Treatment is very situational to the person. Some doctors can help one patient and fail with another. It all depends on the person and their mental structure. A world famous Doctor can fail with a patient because that patient has outlying circumstances that cause recovery to be extremely difficult. Also this stigma against MAT patients and programs needs to end NOW. These options save peoples lives. It saved mine.
Yes but It don't awnser or remove the possibility of an imcompetant doctor treating a patient ineffectively/inappropriately. Both scenario's happen, just that there seemed to be an inability to admit this in the courtroom.

@KentuckyBucky I will elaborate, within this video you can see the reluctance of the doctor to be drawn into the argument about denigrating other doctors and his approach to not doing that. But I find it bizarre that one professional can't scrutinise another and it not be viewed as denigrating rather than constructive. Sounds like it closes the option of an open dialogue between patient and doctor to review ongoing treatment that's in process. Please understand that it looks very suspect when there many professions that do the same and there has been found to be many systemic and cultural cover ups that stiffle care, progress and accountability!
I respect him asking for specific meaning to his questions. When your on the defence your very freedom is on the line, why would you accept a vague line of questioning leading to vague answers that could be twisted to condem you.
He's an expert witness for the defense. Someone else's freedom was on the line, and he hurt his credibility with the jury by arguing over stupid shit. This was day 19 of the Michael Jackson doctor trial, and I'm pretty confident that the jury wouldn't have been pleased with him wasting even more of their time.
the attorney was setting the doctor up for something. but the doctor was clever enough to not get caught in what the attorney was trying to accomplish.
The doctor still answered his question, just differently phrased.
@@MsTiagosk8 he was never asking the doctor a question in the first place, all the questions are set up to get a statement that can be manipulated, absolutely no interest in the answers, unless the answers contain the statements
The doctor isn't clever - at all. A competent expert witness doesn't evade cross-examination in a fashion so trivial and childish as to turn the court's perception against them - they flip the opposing counsel's examination on its head and use it as further opportunity to undermine counsel's argument whilst strengthening their own. If you can't avoid incriminating your side without compromising your professionalism in the eyes of the jury, then you're not a useful expert witness. Furthermore, regardless of your opinion of the justice/legal system, if you're going to agree to play the game in order to earn a bit of cash on the side, then you have an obligation to act with integrity - even if it means your ego takes a hit when the opposition's attorney manages to out-manouver you. People love to rail on attorneys, but they generally act with principle once they get inside the court room (what goes on outside of trial is a different matter). You would think that people would be more concerned anytime a healthcare professional isn't capable of acting with the same integrity - especially since such cases usually revolve around the welfare of patients under their, or their colleagues', care.
@@johnblake5688 This is a honest question..Bro what are you tsking about in context to this video
@@emmanueloluga9770 I think it's fairly clear. You said the doctor was clever enough to not get caught in what the attorney was trying to accomplish. I'm saying that the doctor wasn't actually clever at all. He incorrectly assumed that every question the attorney asked was an attempt to lead him into a trap and that the best course of action would be to act as evasive as possible. Consequently, he undermined his professional credibility and integrity as an expert witness, and managed to turn jury opinion against both himself and the defense - which was the side he obviously fell on. That last point highlights another serious issue with this guy - expert witnesses are supposed to be impartial. There can be no doubt that this guy has more interest in trying to strengthen the case for the defense (the side which hired him) and undermine the case for the prosecution, in an attempt to negotiate a larger paycheck from the defense, than in trying to assist the court with reaching an unbiased, factual, and fair conclusion to the trial. That a doctor would be more concerned with padding his bottom line than with the pursuit of an honest resolution to a medical negligence case is deeply troubling - yet people seem to be holding this guy in reverence because he essentially played the adult version of 'I know you are but what am I?'
an intelligent man that knew the right answers to the wrong questions
I don't know the whole background, but it seems that the witness absolutely mopped the floor with the lawyer. Well done!

Actually, that doctor was smart to avoid falling into the traps of that attorney of state, also showed a lot of commitment and principle to his work.
I just think he was a bit of a bitch about the hours questions, unless there was a truly important implication in answering that question in that particular manner which of course I have no idea there was.. But if you ask me he was a bitch about that question haha any moron could make a fairly close guess and if you can't well there's something not correctly working with your memory
@Gian brother thank you for reading only the part where I gave my opinion, and not the part where I humbly and smartly say “UNLESS THERE WAS A TRULY IMPORTANT IMPLICATION IN ANSWERING THE QUESTION IN THIS PARTICULAR MANNER WHICH OF COURSE I HAVE NO IDEA THERE WAS“. Go ahead, read my response this time the part to which I admit I might not know about court proceedings and then reply again. You want to make me look like I'm an idiot that doesn't know there could be more complexities to this, where all I was saying is that there is bullshit in his argument that he doesn't count.. Of course he does bro! Never said he should have or shouldn't have that's why I specifically said what I said.
@Gian and I didn't call him a bitch or a moron at all. I said he was being a bitch about the counting question, and I said any moron could give you an estimate of how much he works, which is true. But not one time I called the man a bitch or moron directly, and I'm not calling you one either, but please read things carefully next time
@Tre Andang oh ok I guess if you have a civilized debate over something and try to sort things out you're insecure about your intelligence. LISTEN PEOPLEE Tre Andang said it, don't have discussions your insecurity will show!!
@@kevinsyler2272 Presumably, giving a specific answer would tie him to specifics in further questions, such as not enough hours to qualify for 'x' claim of experience. It's the way the guy was asking general, wide-ranging questions, designed to cast a wide net of potential "Ahh, but you said earlier..." sort of arguments. The Doctor game him no room for arguments, beyond 'Yes' to a very wide-scope question.
I imagine the other side coached him to be glib/evasive/specific. There's not enough context in the clip to guess at which. Or perhaps his job is that unpredictable from one week to the next, and to give a specific measurement would be misleading.
“I believe YOU’RE exactly correct, I THINK experience is important” the way he answers these questions make me wonder just how much his lawyer costs 😂😂😂
Can you imagine he and his wife getting into an argument
I don't know why, but court procedure is fascinating

I suppose because they are mentally engaging and unusual, which satisfies your curiosity
What the doctor was saying is if he was able to successfully treat a patient it doesn't mean that prior treatment was bad treatment.
The lawyer didnt say it was, he was asking and it took the doctor a really long time to admit that yes... yes. yes.... some doctors dont always get it right with treatment. Why is that not allowed to be said? Tribalism.
dominionofme learn what subpar and incompetent means before you say the lawyer didnt say prior treatment wasnt bad.
moments after saying high experience is necessary lol
dominionofme he implied it
dominionofme, probably the business or one of the doctors colleagues were being sued. The doctor did not think it was right to do so, so gave the lawyer nothing to work with
At the end, he ended up answering the two questions... Haha but at least he made it more difficult for the lawyer.
The prosecutor is very competent and anyone being cross-examined should be as weary as Dr. Waldman. I would always fake a stroke on the witness stand and throw in temporary insanity for good measure!

i think it's his way of highlighting sections that he's had agreed or needs agreed
Or writing in shorthand.
2monsterhairuglythe
Shorthand writing gives me a headache when I read it.
I see a lot of comments saying that the witness was being unnecessarily difficult in this exchange but the truth is this is how the game is played. Prosecutors are masters getting idiots to say shit & then trapping them with their own words. The trick is t subvert their expectations and not give them any kind of answer they can latch on to. What this man did was genius. Bravo.
That's what I thought at first but I'm not so sure after reading someone's comment. Because the thing is this might be true when there's no jury but when there's a jury deciding the verdict this witness might come across as defensive therefore possibly hiding sth. So I wonder.
He wasn't prepared to play ball and why should he? I wish more witnesses would do this because attorneys don't know how to deal with it and cry to the judge. Attorneys might like to dish it out but few of them can take it.
The jury will hate this doctor.
It’s like when cops ask me .... what are you doing .... I respond with what are you doing?!
Right! And the prosecutor shouldn't have gotten so angry cause he's literally playing the game. Sorry it's not going so easy for you buddy but sometimes people are prepared and you don't get to slip words into the mouths of others as easily as you're used to
This man was showed every single video in history about "How you might go jail if you answer one question wrong" He was also likely a IVY league college graduate, this is what you end up with.
As someone who’s gone through both courses of schooling, average Doctors are insurmountably more intelligent than lawyers.

If you’re ever dealing with a lawyer, this is a very strong and clear way to approach them. Answer no ambiguous questions, and allows no room for the lawyer to interpret your answers.
No, not really. It makes you look uncooperative and like you're hiding something. The goal of all testimony is not to score points, but to prevent points being scored. That is best done in a jury trial with simple, short, non-confrontational answers.
Bad advice.
This Dr looks shifty as heck and seems evasive, like he's trying to tailor his evidence to suit one dude rather than being independent as expert witness's are meant to be.
Good advice, to be honest. People tend to forget that "Anything you say can and will be used against you in the court of law."
This, exactly. unless you get an attorney to tell you otherwise
'How many hours a week do you work in dialysis' is not an ambiguous question!
That was like watching a good tennis game 🏓 👏 The Doctor was the 🏆 winner !
