Cannot be proven? I remember reading a case once about a wrongful death case against a railroad, where the only eye witness to the accident was the conductor. The dead guy's family (the plaintiff) had to call the conductor as its only witness to prove their case that the railroad was negligent. The conductor basically covered his own arse and testified to facts which did not establish any negligence. Since this was plaintiffs witness rules of evidence at the time precluded them from impeaching him on the stand. The plaintiffs never-the-less won. How? Their attorney argued in his closing statement that the conductor was a liar and the jury agreed. Moral of story.... its up to the jury (fact finder) to determine the credibility of the person testifying as to the facts. Pawson needs to get the financials filed pronto if he doesn't want to be haunted by the lie he told. Not even his mother would believe him.
