:24:00
- Who worked up the slides for you?
- Technician at the hospital.

:24:04
Wouldn't it have been better...
:24:06
to have these slides worked up by
a pathologist or expert in this field?

:24:10
Yes, but the police
were in a hurry.

:24:13
I happened to know this young fella
came on at 7:00 in the morning.

:24:16
Wouldn't it have been especially better
to wait for the expert...

:24:19
if the possible question of rape
hung on the result?

:24:21
- It would have been.
- In the newspaper of August 1 6...

:24:26
it was stated that you found
no evidence of rape, is that true?

:24:29
It is not true.
I made no such statement.

:24:31
But did you form an opinion as to
whether Mrs. Manion had been raped?

:24:35
- No.
- Why didn't you form an opinion?

:24:37
It's impossible to tell if a mature
married woman has been raped.

:24:41
That's all.
:24:43
Did you have an opinion about whether
she had any recent relations with a man?

:24:47
Well, as far as no sperm
was present...

:24:50
it didn't appear she had
a recent relation with a man.

:24:53
- That's all.
-Just one more question, Doctor.

:24:55
The fact that no evidence was present
in her body...

:24:58
does not mean that
she was not raped, does it?

:25:00
No.
:25:01
Do you know what constitutes rape
under the law?

:25:04
Yes, sir.
:25:05
Violation is sufficient for rape.
There need not be a completion.

:25:09
- No further questions.
- The witness may step down.

:25:12
The people recall Alphonse Paquette
to the stand.

:25:15
Since counsel for the defense
has forced the question of rape...

:25:19
it becomes necessary to take this
additional testimony from Mr. Paquette.

:25:23
You're still under oath, Mr. Paquette.
:25:25
Mr. Paquette...
:25:28
would you take a look at Mrs. Manion
seated there behind the defense table.

:25:31
Was she dressed in this manner
the night of the shooting?

:25:34
- No.
- How was she dressed?

:25:36
She had on a real tight skirt and
sweater kind of thing, sort of glued on.

:25:41
She was wearing red shoes
with high heels.

:25:43
- Was she wearing hose?
- No, she was bare-legged.

:25:47
- Was she wearing a hat?
- No.

:25:49
What kind of hair does Mrs. Manion
have under that hat?

:25:53
We'd be very happy to show the court
Mrs. Manion's hair.

:25:56
Mrs. Manion, would you
take off your hat, please?
