Right, but even relating hearsay, to keep from looking like such an idiot, wouldn't she have wanted to say, "that's what I was told happened, but I know that it is impossible. I'm just telling you an impossible story that someone else told me because you asked."
Unless she just made the whole thing up. Which the committee could have checked by issuing a subpoena to Ornato. Which they did not.
You idiot. She wasn't the declarant.. she was never in the vehicle.
