By rights, Oscar could say the same to Nel! Haha! Saying "you're lying" repeatedly could be seen to sway the judge and subconsciously imprinting "fact and truth" in her mind, inaccurately.
Also, Roux should've been able to tell PT witnesses during cross that they're "lying". He never did, once.
Sorry this is such a late response. I am just catching up with today in court.
Yes he did say some like you are lying or you have to be lying on a number of occasions to one of the early witnesses but I cannot remember which one and I don't have the time to go through all of them again. We discussed on here how we thought it was bad to do this.
I don't like hearing Nel saying either "you are lying" or "you are a liar" to OP. It is a bit uncouth. There has to be a better way of implying the same. I think I heard him also use "you are not telling the truth" which I feel is far more preferable.
I have missed virtually all of todays court proceedings. Can anyone tell what was being discussed when Nel called OP a liar. I would like to watch what was being questioned at the time and witness how the judge responded.
