:51:03
exactly one week
before her death. ls that right?
:51:05
- She did.
- Will you tell us
the substance of that meeting?
:51:08
She told me she was desperately afraid
her husband intended to kill her.
:51:12
Did you speak to Mrs Greenhill
subsequent to that first meeting?
:51:15
Yeah, l, uh, telephoned her five days
later to make sure she was all right.
:51:19
She said she was living in
a constant state of terror,
:51:22
locking her bedroom door at night.
:51:24
So l urged her to move
into a hotel, contact her lawyer.
:51:29
Uh, there was no action that
the police could have taken
under the circumstances.
:51:33
Unfortunately, no crime
had been committed.
:51:37
Your witness.
:51:41
Lieutenant Martinez,
:51:43
do you feel guilty now about
not having taken action?
:51:47
Why should l?
l went by the book.
:51:50
l don't see how
l could have prevented it.
:51:55
You didn't believe her, did you?
:51:57
l thought she was maybe making trouble
for her husband. l don't know.
:52:02
Well, Mr Greenhill sent me to this,
uh, uniform store on Grant Street...
:52:07
to, uh, to get outfitted.
:52:09
He, uh, he said he was tired of seeing
me in the same uniforms every day.
:52:14
Did he tell you
what time to be back?
:52:16
No, actually he said
there was no need to hurry.
:52:20
And in less than one hour after you left
Mrs Greenhill alone with her husband,
:52:25
she plunged to her death
from the 18th floor window.
:52:27
- Objection. Leading.
- Withdrawn. No more questions.
:52:33
Mr Loo, you were with
the deceased for over a year
before she married David Greenhill.
:52:39
- ls that right?
- Right.
:52:41
And during that time, who gave
you your orders and instructions
around the house?
:52:45
Mrs Greenhill did, of course.
:52:47
So it may very well have been
Rita Greenhill's idea...
:52:50
that you leave early
that day for the fitting.
:52:53
Well, it could have been.
:52:56
Now, you saw the defendant get off
the elevator and cross the lobby.
:52:59
- ls that right?
- Yes.
