Dan Brown Plays Ignorance Card.

Posted by Taste of Liberty at 7:54 am. Filed under: General, Courts / Legal

Taking a page from liberal Democrats, Dan Brown gets amnesia on the stand.

He had almost no recollection of matters that related to timing. He would struggle to recall a year, was rarely able to recall a month. His general attitude in cross-examination was uncooperative,” Rayner James said, referring to Brown’s testimony during three days on the stand last week.

CBS reports this interesting piece of “evidence”…

A crucial piece of evidence in the case, points out CBS News Correspondent Richard Roth, is the underlined and highlighted copy of “Holy Blood, Holy Grail” that Brown insists he didn’t even read until after he’d plotted his own book.

Yeah, right.

And then Brown offers the ultimate defense… his wife did it.

In a written statement handed to the court Monday, Rayner James said Brown had copied from “The Holy Blood and the Holy Grail,” but acknowledged he may have done so “unwittingly because of the research materials supplied by Blythe Brown.”

The case has been sent to the judge who will supposedly decide in a couple of weeks.

Will the movie be delayed? Like one friend noted, “Not a chance.” “It all depends on the payoff price,” he said.

I guess we’ll know soon.

Maria Langer has some thoughts here.
