During the testimony of the man in the train station who saw the confrontation between George Eastman and Alice Tripp, why didn't he mention that she threatened suicide to George? This would have swayed the guilty verdict incredibly in George's favor.
shareThat is true! I swear Alice was very annoying and at times, I felt like drowning her! JK In the first movie, An American Tragedy, Alice is Roberta and her character is much more likeable and you feel more empathy. She is not a whining, screaming pain in the butt.

He did a good job! And yes, that was her forte!
shareSo she desrves to die?
shareNo, Alice didn't deserve to die... no one does. I can sure see a LONG time getting a jury, though. I can also see hung juries, mistrials and retrials up to the yinyang.
All it would take was ONE MALE Juror with a PMS afflicted wife, to louse things up.
They didn't know about Female Hormones and their affects back then, and certainly didn't talk about it. I can understand how it could affect things, though.
It's an interesting thought, anyway.
I do hope he won't upset Henry...
He didn't mention it because he was coached by the prosecution to answer only exactly what they ask. Do not volunteer that which is not asked. Since the prosecution wanted to win the case, they'd never have allowed that as testimony, whether or not it was germane to the case.
The defense should have done a better job with interviewing this witness
When she threatened that "she might kill herself", the witness was not there.
