ADA: The night that you were placed under arrest, you made extensive statements to the police, didn't you
Defense lawyer: Objection!
Judge: Let's have a sidebar

ADA: You would have this jury believe that the weapon Rocco Rodden had what his size?
Bordone: Yes.
ADA: Thank you. After you stabbed him twice, you were able to run away?
Bordone: I was
ADA: Then you slashed again...
innercitypress.bsky.social
Bordone: Sometimes I wish I had be beaten. I see this family in front of me and I see so many similarities
ADA: But you didn't run away, you pulled out your knife
Bordone: Yes.
ADA: You escalated the violence
Bordone: The more I tried to get away the more I was in
innercitypress.bsky.social
ADA: But you were the one with the weapon
Bordone: He had his feet, he had his hands. I thought they would come and stomp me and kill me.
ADA: Isn't it true you pulled out your knife to stop people from coming toward you?
Bordone: I saw everyone who just stomped
innercitypress.bsky.social
ADA: You could have run away, right?
Bordone: True. But I knew I couldn't run much longer.
ADA: You were tired?
Bordone: I was starting to see black.
ADA: But you pulled out your knife and you threatened Rocco Rodden
Bordone: I begged him to stop.

ADA: Your sneakers came off, didn't they?
Bordone: They did.
ADA: Were they high-toppers?
Bordone: No. People were stepping on my feet and holding my jacket.
ADA: Then Rocco Rodden approached you?
Bordone: Yes.
ADA: And you pulled your knife out?
Bordone: No
innercitypress.bsky.social
ADA: You weren't scared when you punched Rocco Rodden, were you?
Bordone: I was terrified. I felt like if I got two more of those I'd be out. It was like thunder.
ADA: But it missed your head, right?
Bordone: He might have missed a little of it
innercitypress.bsky.social
ADA: When were you hit, and where?
Bordone: Shortly before this.
ADA: Not captured on video, right?
Bordone: No, it was. It was shown here in court, it's a blurry video [There is a longer video]
ADA: Rocco Rodden raised his hand up, right?
Bordone: Don't remember
