Satisfactory Essays
Open Document

Christine knew that her alibi would not be believed. After all, people thought she was married to Leonard. First, in court there is a rule that spouses can not testify against each other in court, so when Christine went up to the stand to testify against Leonard everyone knew she was not really Leonard's wife. Second, Christine’s testimony was full of negations against Leonard's own testimony. She talked about her previous marriage, what time Leonard left the house and came back. Christine's testimony pulled a very strong case against Leonard. Hence, since... Christine was not actually Leonard's wife, she could testify a strong case against him.
