River Cruz on the Stand Q and A




    Question:  Why did the defense call River Cruz?

    Answer:    The defense called River Cruz in an attempt to impeach the testimony of George Anthony.

    Question:   Why?

    Answer:     Because if the defense can show George Anthony as a liar, it "impeaches" or, calls into doubt, the veracity of his prior testimony.

    Question:   Will this work?
    Answer:     Likely not.

    Question:  If the defense shows he lied about his affair, will this raise reasonable doubt for Casey?
    Answer:    No, and here is why:

    Objection:  River says that George said "it was an accident that snowballed out of control" and this could  buttress the defense theory.

    Answer:     Jeff Ashton masterfully got her to say that George believed it.

    Here is my take on it:

    I believe that George had an inappropriate relationship with River Cruz.  I think:

     that George put the touch on her for money; loan or donation.   It is who George is.

    that River sold her story for money.

     that George, in defense of Casey, probably said it was an accident that snowballed out of control.


    George testified truthfully, as did Cindy, at times, and other times, he did not.  This is the Anthonys.

    Readers, resist the temptation to pain with a broad brush.

    What makes a good investigator?

    The number one quality is the ability to accept the unknown; that is, to not have an answer, neatly tied up, in black and white.

    It is something that frustrates us all.

    That George Anthony had an affair with River Cruz, or that George Anthony and Cindy Anthony sold pictures for money, or that River sold her story for money, or Roy Kronk's motivation was both money and fame does not change the basics of the case:

    Premeditated murder.

    Look beyond the lies to the truth.  Discern deception from truth.
