1:36:00
...in the two weeks surrounding
Carolyn Polhemus's death?

1:36:03
No, sir.
1:36:05
Sounds about right.
1:36:08
Given that number,
isn't it fair to say that...

1:36:11
...the specifics of any one examination
may slip your mind?

1:36:16
I take notes while I do the autopsies.
1:36:19
Notes, yes.
1:36:22
These notes led you
to tell Detective Lipranzer...

1:36:25
...that the murderer was sterile?
1:36:27
Looking back, you must have thought
you were a fool...

1:36:30
...to have escaped something so obvious
as the use of a contraceptive spermicide.

1:36:36
All the sperm were dead.
1:36:39
I didn't have the forensic chemist's report
about the spermicidal jelly.

1:36:43
In the absence of any other explanation,
I thought the guy was sterile.

1:36:50
Do you recognize your notes
of your autopsy of Ms. Polhemus?

1:36:56
Yes, sir, my signature.
1:37:03
Unless there is any objection...
1:37:05
...would you please read the short passage
marked by the paper clips?

1:37:10
Page two, Counsel.
1:37:12
Read it out loud, please.
1:37:13
"The Fallopian tubes...
1:37:16
"...are ligated and separated.
1:37:18
"The fimbriated ends appear...."
1:37:33
That's not right.
1:37:35
Your own autopsy notes?
1:37:37
You dictate them
as you perform the procedure.

1:37:45
But not right.
1:37:46
I show you the records of Dr. Lubin,
a gynecologist...

1:37:49
...who performed this procedure
on Ms. Polhemus six and a half years ago.

1:37:56
Would you explain to the jury
what a "tubal ligation" is?
