I’m wondering... If it isn’t admissible in an actual court case (because she can’t be cross-examined), would it have been a tool during Grand Jury hearing?

Could have been. The guy is a slime ball but she stayed married and supported him while knowing that. Its taking the testimony of one scumbag against another, who do you believe?

If he takes the stand, it can be used to impeach his testimony. Maybe he can do one of his ambulence chaser summations, like the one that got him rich, to win this case but I doubt it.

I could see them using this for a grand jury probe, but not in court. She could easily commit perjury to exact revenge with no threat of earthly consequences to her. But what do I know, I got my degree in Dental Hygiene and have been "just a housewife" for over 30 years now.
Is there a distinction made between perjury committed on the spur of the moment out of fear and a premeditated perjury done to injure another person?
