It may not have been what the public wanted, but no matter how damaging the testimony may have been to Dixon, it still would have gone her way. Lipscomb may have had the dirt, but it would have been turning the spotlight off of Dixon. Lipscomb has already had his day in court. This is Dixon's trial and the finger still needs to be pointed at Dixon. Lipscomb's testimony would have discredited him and his company and not necessarily done the amount of damage to Dixon that would have been expected. The cliche here is not what would have been the lesser of two evils but what would have been the greater of the two evils remembering that this is Dixon's trial. BTW. thank the gods for tweeting!
