# 1 MR. BREWER:

Your Honor, at this point, Ms. Sharon Rufo, who is a resident of Missouri, is in Missouri. We've elected to proceed, through her deposition, with the videotape, the relevant time period between 1988 to 1994.

And the questions that are asked in the transcript are by Mr. Leonard from the defense counsel.

Thank you.
