I’m still just so confused how any of Cohen’s questioning is very effective for the defense so far in terms of proving whether or not forcible rape actually occurred. Considering the testimony of JD1 involved all the symptoms of being roofied, although of course there is no direct evidence (big eye roll), it doesn’t seem very impactful to argue over when Masterson apologized after unwanted anal penetration or in what order her horrific memories of crawling to escape from him took place. She seems to be doing an excellent job maintaining her composure and clarity on the stand. No idea how Tony takes notes this fast!

Again, Cohen’s performance seems antagonizing. It also seems ineffective. The way it reads to me, he is still badgering the witness.
