Are in the case, we re still very much in pretrial discovery where the rules are very broad in favor of her testifying. whether or not she can get on the stand at trial, that s another matter entirely. and that s where there s a lot more protection one spouse and the other. okay. so, trent, this is in the discovery phase. what kind of things could camille cosby reveal in a deposition that basically this would kind of give the prosecution more threads to pull, right? what might those threads be? yeah, remember, and brianna, this is not the prosecution, this is a civil case. so this is going to be a civil lawyer. yeah. what that lawyer is really trying to find out, brianna, is whether or not mrs. cosby understood mr. cosby used quaaludes, whether or not he had certain sexual proclivities, the truth is i don t think there s much she s going to be able to provide. don t expect camille cosby to
Back contributed to his inability to control himself when he was in the back of that van, and that s really what caused this neck injury. ordinary person in ordinary situation would not have had the same problem. i m not sure it s going to fly. i agree with darren, but i think they ll explore it. just to try to create some doubt there. so, darren, what about the medical examiner who performed the autopsy and testified she did not find any signs of a previous back or neck injury? how does that factor in here? right. well, ultimately it becomes a tale of two narratives. and the jury is going to be tasked with the ultimate responsibility of deciding which is the more credible, likely version. at the end of the day while i think that the defense will get to fully explore this issue and it would be a mistake not to allow them to, i don t think that this will be the thing that turns the case. but you never know. and that s why as much as pundits like trent and i may like to opine from th
