Confronted 22 challenges with no interruptions and 4 weighted fallacy points, conceded the unsecured roof was "inconceivable" and that Robinson likely did not act alone, and answered head-on "No, I can't think of a legitimate reason"; charged R-2.2 for attributing Dore's conviction to litigation trauma rather than the anomalies.
