So then he committed perjury and lied under oath when he swore otherwise.
Thank You --
There's no reason for perjury, there would be no benefit for perjury, there is no conceivable motivation for perjury. The document itself shows that Charles Goldberg, Carlson's attorney, asked at this point in the deposition, "You're talking about mandatory reporting?" I don't know anything about the acoustic quality of the room, or Bishop Carlson's aural acuity or Mr. Anderson's clarity and volume, but apparently Carlson wasn't the only one who thought he was asking a run-on question about mandatory reporting.
And since Carlson already had it in the record that he understood the criminal nature of statutory rape --- as every one of them knew, Carlson, Anderson and Goldberg --- this continued attempt to discredit Carlson as a witness is either pointless or malicious.
