We have just seen that Lyle had other examples of original writing
of mine. Why didn't they submit original writing as standards
or better yet, authenticate the standards by having them written
in the presence of the document examiner?
"In point of fact, none of the writing used as standards
were authenticated and this makes them moot.
"The second charge, that I submitted these `suspect' documents
as student SmurFFs, is unproven. That is because none of the
student SmurFFs for those years in question can be validated.
This is because of the way the evaluation process is administered.
Therefore, a chain of custody for the so-called suspicious SmurFF's
was not and cannot be established.
"In the 25 years that I have worked at this university, I have never
been accused of dishonesty. My work has not been criticized.
My teaching ability has always been praised. The biggest criticism
that I have received is that I am at times abrasive.
"You have heard enough to form the obvious conclusion about
how I was treated in the department and how heavy my teaching
load was. I hope you will pay attention to the fact that right
here under oath, Lyle, the person who has made these charges
against me, has tampered with the evidence three times.
