Main points: Lee Allen was irresponsible, the drinking claims are not legitimate, Neptune was a fantastic diving company, and Andy Allen is a psycho crazy that threatens people in order to get them to do her bidding.
-You were on the Hepburn expedition, scheduled for July 3-10, 2011, correct?
-Along with Lee and Andy Allen?
-You were aware that this couple had previously completed only 50 dives?
-And you felt this was "crazy" to do this expedition with such little experience?
-You have alot of diving experience, correct?
-Neptune's guides were the best you'd ever seen?
-You noticed Lee ignoring these guides? Even lying to them?
----------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-You claim you saw the crew sitting at a table with alcohol bottles?
-But you only looked for 5 seconds?
-You have no way of knowing if any alcohol was consumed?
-You also never mentioned seeing this?
------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
-You "could be wrong" that you smelled alcohol on Reggie Rodgers's breath?
-And he was speaking and walking fine?
---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------
- You stated in your affadavit that the worst thing about Lee was his risk taking?
-And he repeatedly asked to dive to the 2nd level of the wreck?
-You got tangled in the rope?
-You saw Lee give the "go down" symbol?
-This was while Mr. Rodgers's back was turned?
-So,Mr. Rodgers didn't see this?
-He told Lee to go ahead and join the rest of the group?
-You thought this was the correct decision?
-You were impressed with Mr. Rodgers?
-In fact, you had "never seen a better diver"?
-Hathaway promised everyone a FULL refund?
-Mr. Fernandez, you did not wish to testify today, did you?
-But Andy Allen threatened you, didn't she? With a lawsuit?
-And you couldn't afford that, could you Mr.Fernandez?
I sectioned off the parts the alcohol parts because I only plan on bringing them up if it is mentioned on direct. Also, I wouldn't mind adding a zinger on the end. You know, to keep a nice, high sass level.
