Witnesses, as we all know, are unreliable. Despite the brave and concerted efforts of counsel, emphasizing the fine points of distinguishing an interrogative question from one which calls for a "yes," a "no," or an assertion that one had a temporary degenerative white matter neuron disease at the time and therefore cannot recall the matter at issue until such time as a trial is convened, and the witness's memory returns flawlessly, deponents will say anything, and at the worst possible moment.
