Rovaan,
Schwab crossed the street only Once. The question was asked twice.
He wanted to be on the east side. That's where he went and that's where he stayed.
Try it again. Read the bold print SLOWLY and try to assume that I'm not being irrational.
Q: Did you -- did you look to see what the source of that blood was?
A: Well, I examined the paws and I considered that perhaps the dog had cut its paw and that is where the blood the came from. I didn't notice anything wrong with the dog's paws, but also, IT IS A DARK CORNER, so I wasn't completely sure, you know, whether there might be a piece of glass wedged into one of the paws or something, but I didn't -- I didn't see anything like that at that time.
Q: Okay. So WAS IT DARK -- IT WAS DARK IN THAT AREA, sir?
A: THAT IS A VERY DARK CORNER. That is a dark area -- that side of the street is dark.
Q: THAT SIDE OF THE STREET MEANING THE WEST SIDE OF BUNDY?
A: YES. The WEST SIDE OF BUNDY IS -- IS DARKER -- IS DARKER THAN THE EAST SIDE OF BUNDY, just because of the nature of the street lights that are there.
Q: SO WHAT HAPPENED AFTER YOU LOOKED AT THE DOG? YOU NOTICED ITS PAWS AND ITS LEGS AND ITS COLLAR?
A: Yeah.
Q: What happened next?
A: Well, I was -- I was confused, I didn't know exactly what to make of the situation, and I didn't know what the dog would do. AT THAT POINT I CROSSED THE STREET. I CROSSED FROM THE EAST SIDE OF BUNDY -- I'M SORRY -- FROM THE WEST SIDE OF BUNDY TO THE EAST SIDE OF BUNDY to see basically what the dog would do.
Q: All right. YOU SAY YOU WENT FROM THE WEST SIDE TO THE EAST SIDE OF BUNDY?
A: YES. That is another part of my route. That is what I do. I cross the street at that point. THAT IS WHAT I DO. IT IS A LITTLE LIGHTER ON THAT SIDE OF THE STREET.
Q: SO YOU LIKE IT BETTER BECAUSE IT IS LIGHTER ON THE EAST SIDE OF THE STREET?
A: YES.
Do you really think that Schwab crossed back over to the dark side of the street? --Jasper
