Expert concludes Roy Moore wrote disputed entry in accuser's yearbook, lawyer says

a reply to: pavil

Very little experience. None actually.
But I didn't say the document examiner worked pro-bono, did I?

a reply to: Phage

Ah, I guess I stand corrected again. OK, let's do it your way:

I have no proof of any monetary exchange concerning Gloria Allred. I only make the suggestion that she is getting paid because she deserves hazard pay for even getting within visual distance of the Alabama state line.

That, and the fact that she certainly doesn't appear to be hurting for cash...

Much better.

It would seem that you are suggesting the same of the accusers. Since they actually live there. Must be some good pay.

a reply to: Phage

Much better.

I'm glad you approve.

I certainly am. However, I am afraid I have no data on the pay scales. I simply haven't kept up with the going cost of lies.

After the election, perhaps we could check the GDP of Etowah County to garner some idea?

We won't know till someone asks them. I give you my background in more than at least 6 cases I can recall I know about. The fee structure varies but starts for the ones I have knowledge of , at $5,000 and that's just a basic setup with no court work. Not sure of the rate of a 27 year veteran of the State Crime Lab. Very doubtful they would do it for free. It's not like there such a huge demand for their services that they would do for free.

It's a county full of paid liars?

a reply to: pavil

Do you think he lied?
Does that cost extra?

As I've stated here before. According to newspaper reports Allard gave the report of the expert to the Press. I'd like to see it to see what was actually evaluated. His credentials seem solid as I've also stated.

That being said I've seen two experts in court give totally opposite opinions on the exact same subject. You get what you pay for in court at least. Get a wrong answer, you seek a new "expert". It's how our legal system works.

a reply to: Phage

Well, my assumption is that it's a county which contains some paid liars.

Where did you get 'full of' out of that?

TheRedneck

a reply to: TheRedneck

I figure that if it affected the GDP of a county it would require a large scale payoff.

a reply to: Phage

I would assume liars are paid well.

TheRedneck

a reply to: TheRedneck

You also would seem to assume that the women are liars.

a reply to: Phage

True. So shall we just say they are well-paid associates?

TheRedneck

a reply to: TheRedneck

You are free to say what you will.

a reply to: Phage

Thank you. What would you say, though?

I guess this will have to be explained as well.

Three weeks ago, Washington Post’s Philip Bump consulted former FBI agent Mark Songer, a forensics documents examiner, to examine a yearbook produced by one of Roy Moore’s accusers as evidence he assaulted her. The expert concluded that the “writing seems consistent with one writer.”

The problem is, Nelson has admitted to adding "notes," under Moore's signature. If the "writing seems consistent with one writer," and Nelson has admitted to what she added, this whole thing is one big inconsistent mess.

1% lie contaminates and neuters the other 99% that might be truth.

a reply to: TheRedneck

I think that Moore has an attraction to very young women and acted upon it. I don't think that the women were paid to lie.

But my opinion has no practical effect.

a reply to: Phage

Fair enough. I actually agree that he had an attraction to younger women. I just don't think he ever went beyond the attraction part.

TheRedneck

a reply to: TheRedneck

I said "very young."

a reply to: Phage

I didn't.
