Some might think it a little strange that a witness such as Mr Holbrook did not 'offer' his complete recollection of the events and by implication not say something that would have been relevant. It simply doesn't work like that. Having been the main prosecution witness in a L@ser case I can say that the court draws from the witness what they need, and only that. I had a very clear idea of what had happened, but was never invited to (or given the chance to) describe the incident from my perspective in full, I was asked specific questions and answered them. I left the witness box feeling a little under used and wondering if the court had fully understood what had happened, but the result was the right one in my opinion.
