instructs the witness's attorney before entering the courtroom:
- ... and be careful with the double-barreled questions.
- How? "The witness scratching his head. I do not know what that is.
"Relax," the lawyer puts his hand on my shoulder, I'll give an example. Imagine that you ask, is it true that you wear a yellow tie and is a neighbor of the accused? So attentive, eh, because if you answer "yes" to say that is true, that is a neighbor of the accused, will also be saying that you wear a yellow tie, and not, as your tie is green.
The witness nods as glances at his tie.
"So," continued the lawyer, in this case should answer "no" to the first part of the question and yes to the second. Do you understand?
The witness remains silent, staring at the floor.
- Do you understand? "Repeated the lawyer patting her back.
"Yes, yes. Perfectly.
The witness enters the room and he is about to take back seat and whispered to the lawyer:
- Would not it be better to take my tie?
