How can she really be sure…
Ten: she swore she saw him do it
I heard her swear to it
Ten: they proved it.
Weren’t you just telling us…
Ten: so?
Then I’d like to ask you something. How come you believed her?

I didn’t see as well as they told me…

[to 5] do you think…

4: obviously you don’t think the boy is guilty
I have a doubt in my mind
10: still…you know
I’ve got a proposition to make
3: what have you got to say about that?
Idk it doesn’t sound right to me
Four (during el tracks scene) : So?
Then let me ask…
10: get to the point
The old man who lived downstairs heard the boy say——
3: he screamed it
The old man downstairs heard the boy scream I’m going to kill you and one sec later he heard a body fall (pause) one second, that’s the testimony. Right?
2: Right
The woman across the street looked through the window of the last two cars of the el and saw the body fall. Right?
12: So?
Last two
Me: an el train takes 10 seconds to pass a given point, or 2 seconds per car.
That el had been going by the old man’s window for at least 6 seconds maybe more before the body fell according to the woman
Me: According to the woman
The old man would’ve had to hear the boy say I’m gonna kill you right as the front of the el was roaring past his nose, its not possible he could’ve heard it.
