Agreed. However, MOM went ahead with a re-re-cross to clarify for the jury. If the characterization of Zim’s answers on the tape weren’t a minor cause for concern if left unclarified, there would be no need for MOM to continue. Standard tactic.
The rule is repeat, repeat, repeat....
Of course he did his follow up, that’s his job, i was pointing out it was the pros that asked for special permission to do a re-re direct because it was their case that got hurt due to the witness.
