Yeah, real life doesn't quite match the Law and Order drama

But I didn't get any admonition - actually there was an objection ("Asked and answered") raised by the defense - but I WAS answering the question, just not the way the district attorney wanted. I was NOT going to speculate about hypothetical situations that never would have happen while I was an attorney there. The other ex-employees basically followed suit, which pissed off the district attorney because he wanted to use this info in his closing, for sure.
