O’Mara resumes questioning.

He asks if he knows the distance the gun was fired.

Root says he know it was within 6 inches.

O’Mara asks if that seems like it showed ill-will, spite or hatred.

“No,” Root says.

O’Mara asks about law enforcement shootings.

Guy objects on relevance.

Judge Nelson says he can put it in context.

Root says he has experience with law enforcement and non-law enforcement shootings.

He says memory issues are the primary concern for people involved in a high-stress event and it can take up to 72 hours for someone to recall what happened.

He says someone can remember something a little differently the next day and make slight variations and be thought of as lying.

O’Mara asks about the best practices for investigating a law enforcement shooting.

Root says they teach about use of deadly force in classes and that it can take 72 hours to remember everything.

O’Mara asks if delaying taking the statement can increase its accuracy.

Root says a better statement would be received.

O’Mara checks if the jury needs a break. He asks for a moment.

Language warning -

OMG You can't make this stuff up. Trayborg's praying for a hail mary pass in final seconds of the 4th quarter.

I think we need to recall Good -- he probably DID hear the smack Root just gave to Guy, pointing out #8 not believable.

Has the defense brought up GZ walked on to see another street address and when he was coming back, TM attacked him? That's what happened in those missing minutes.
