Sandra Jo Streeter,
Would you direct me to my testimony that you appear to be quoting in your questions that are clearly an attempt to rehabilitate
Cohen after he committed perjury in one of his answers. See below. Who charges people with perjury in these matters? You
are a prosecutor, no?
Kelley Lynch
PERJURY
Leonard Cohen:
Around Page 276:
...
Q: Okay. Do you remember testifying on March 23rd at another hearing?
A: March 23rd, yes.
Q: Of this year. You were in this courthouse testifying, correct?
A: That is correct.
Q: Now, you were asked if this was -- if your relationship with Ms. Lynch was purely a business relationship. Do you remember that?
A: I did.
Q: And you actually said that it was, yes, purely a business relationship.
Page 277:
A: I have said repeatedly that there was an intimate relationship, but the lady denies it. So I did not want to insist.
Q: I’m not asking you about what Ms. Lynch said. I’m asking about what you said. You said that yes, that it was purely a business relationship, correct?
A: May I explain?
Q: I’m just asking for if that’s what you said on March 23rd.
A: Yes.
Q: In fact, you were asked a follow up question that -- asking you if that was the extent of it, and again you said yes, that was the extent of it.
A: Correct.
Page 319:
Q: And finally, there was a question about a previous relationship you’ve given, the description of your relationship with Ms. Lynch. Why at that hearing did you say that you only had a business relationship with Ms. Lynch and not just once or twice, why did you say that?
Page 320:
A: Because, as it turns out, the friendship that Ms. Lynch displayed was false and deceptive, so it was not really a friendship.
Kelly objects.
Cohen: The intimate relationship we had, she denies. So I’m not going to insist. So, therefore, it was not -- from that point of view, there was not an intimate relationship and there was not a friendship; it was all business. It was all business from the point of view of Ms. Lynch.
By Ms. Streeter: And in your mind --
Kelly objects. Speculation as to what Ms. Lynch thought.
Court: Overruled. The question was why he did it, and he’s testifying to his subjective reason.
Streeter: In your mind, if a woman says that you don’t have an intimate relationship with her but you do, why does that matter?
A: I’m sorry, Ma’am?
Kelly objects; vague.
Court sustains.
Streeter: Why does it matter if - if you’ve had an intimate relationship like with Ms. Lynch, she said you don’t -- didn’t have one, why does it matter? Why does that impact the answer to the question, that particular question a couple of weeks ago?
Kelly: Objection; vague.
Court sustains. I think we’ve adequately covered this.
Streeter: Okay. Right. Perfect.
Leonard Cohen Re-Cross:
Kelly: When you testified on March 23rd, you said that -- you didn’t give the same answer that you gave now, correct, regarding your relationship with Ms. Lynch?
A: That’s correct.
Q: Okay,. But you -- when you did testify, you stood in front of the counsel table, you raised your right hand, correct?
A: Correct.
Q: And then the same oath that you just took right now, correct? Before testifying, correct?
A: Correct.
Q: And yet you gave two different answers; yes or no?
A: Correct.
Q: Okay. And you understand that you were under the penalty of perjury on March 23rd?
Streeter: Objection; argumentative.
Court: Sustained.
Q: What's brown and looks really good on a lawyer?
A: A Doberman.
A: A Doberman.
