Of course he is only doing his job, but do you really think that in a state of panic a persons mind is going to react in the same way as a person not in a panic. I can't understand why people don't see that. As I said earlier we are all different.
I'm not sure what you mean...? Nel doing his job has nothing to do with OP's memory.
And I agree with you that panic can affect a person's memory, certainly just after the fact when your body is still full of adrenaline. You can and likely will forget certain details.
However, in OP's case, he's now had a year to reflect on that evening. And when asked to give his version of what happened on the night he killed his girlfriend in his house while she was there as his guest, whether intentionally or accidentally, he'd do himself more good to a) tell the truth; and then b) stick to his original story as much as possible (which I'm sure Roux is now wishing he'd done).
Thing is, if OP were telling the whole truth and nothing but the truth, I believe he'd have a repetitive series of concrete answers for Nel. And I think OP would never waver from those answers, even if he truly couldn't remember every minute that unfolded and occasionally got tongue-tied. Instead, he's adding details as his testimony proceeds and then forgetting what he said. That's classic liar mistakes, classic.
No matter how much you may want him to be telling the truth, which is understandable, you still must accept that no one in OP's situation would be given any longer of a rope to hang himself than OP has been given by Nel. OP is just really good with rope, I guess.
