If he had this lawyer ... what did I think if he told his lawyer to tell the State that his girlfriend ... hit him in the head with a stick and he fell unconscious and fell on her and when he was — when he regained consciousness that she had died from suffocation because he was on her, he fell on top of her. And I told him, no one is going to believe this.”
