Key Quotes (2)

Lance A. Ito
I also want to pay tribute to our court reporter today since this was an extraordinarily difficult job.
Unusual acknowledgment of the court reporter, signaling the technical complexity and density of Dr. Baden's testimony.
Lance A. Ito
Dr. Golden--excuse me. I'm sorry. Dr. Baden.
Ito momentarily confuses Dr. Baden with Dr. Golden (the coroner), a small slip that reflects the volume of expert witnesses in the case.
