Chapter 89 Section 8

As we all know, the witness's first statement at the beginning of the case is always closer to the facts, and can better reflect the real existence and real occurrence, because at that time, the theory about the case has not yet been formed, and the investigators' inquiries are mostly "what happened?" ?” But there is little framework, little inspiration, and little “Please recall carefully…” By the time they are in court, their stories have been polished and polished, removing the irregularities, removing the edges and corners, and removing any theoretical differences. inconsistencies.

An example was cited in the article. Charles Roberts, the driver of von Pros's family, once mentioned in court that he drove Sunny to various doctors to prescribe medicines, and then went to various pharmacies to buy medicines.Later, when Richard Kuhl appeared in court as a rebuttal witness for the prosecution, he took out his own transcript and cited the classics, pointing out the different statements made by Charles now and then. It can be seen that when the testimony of the witnesses is unfavorable to the public prosecutor, the "Kur Transcript" becomes a "shield" for them to resist the attack, and on the contrary, it is used as a "spear" to stab the opponent...

Therefore, we believe that there are reasons to believe that the "Kuer Transcript" as the first-hand information of this case will not only make the statement of the defendant more complete, more reasonable, and more consistent with the facts, but may also help both parties explore the truth of the case effort... Such a lengthy speech actually has only one meaning: the defendant asked the court to "obtain by subpoena" (also called subpoena) Kool's transcript. In the same year, Sunny's mother, Mrs. Aitken, died.In her will, which was amended before her death, the old lady disinherited her youngest granddaughter, Cosima von Pro, because the 16-year-old girl "insisted on her father's side".Cosima's $30 million was split equally between Princess Anne-Lowraine and Prince Alexander, bringing their respective inheritance totals to $45 million.

After another full year, on Friday, April 27, 1984, the State Supreme Court finally overruled the first-instance judgment of the "Von Prop Case" and ordered the lower court to review the case.Soon, the "Deshowwich Team" received the "Kool Transcript" they had been looking forward to and fighting for for a long time. Professor Aaron Dershowich's instructions to the "Kool Transcript Team" were clear and simple: find out when the witnesses first mentioned insulin. At the team meeting a week later, the members listened to the group's report. Richard Kuhl's first interview on the case was with the von Osberg siblings on January 5, 1981, two weeks after Sunny was "in a permanent coma".Referring to the black leather case, the siblings said that "the maid saw some medicine bottles in his (that is, Klos von Prowess - author's note) traveling bag", which contained "Valium and several bottles of prescription drugs" , without mentioning insulin and syringes.

Three days later, on January 8, 1981, Richard Kuhl found Maria Singlaham, and the maid gave a very detailed description of the contents of the black leather box she found twice. For the first time, in February 1980, Mariah said: "There was Valium and some prescription drugs...in powders, liquids and tablets...all had 'Zotoma Drugstore' printed on the label, which was the address at the time, in Mann. Intersection of Diessen and 75th Road, now moved between Mandison Road and 77th and 78th Avenue. Prescribing physician: Rosenberg. One of the patient's names is Klos von Pro... the others do not know." No mention of insulin and syringes either.This passage matches Maria's court testimony.

Regarding Maria's second discovery of the black leather box at the end of November, Professor Aaron Dershowich later transcribed the original text of the "Kool Transcript" in his book "Reversal" as follows: November 1980 (Thanksgiving Day)-Sunday, 5th Avenue apartment in New York.See the same item in Cross's box and call Alexander.But no labels - all have been torn off! ! Still no mention of insulin and syringes.Compare Mariah's own testimony at the first trial: Steven Vermiliti: Is there a label on it?
