The kids lied to protect him after they had already told the truth in reports to the police the night of the wreck and the time after, as well as testifying to my lawyers about it.
They only began lying because his lawyers started telling them that he was depressed, suicidal, and going to lose his job, which, living in that home, he and his family would then be homeless (which, if he HAD lost his job, it would be justified because he didn't do his job, and they would have lost THAT house, but it's not like they were broke and couldn't get another one, or at least an apartment while he got a new job and saved money).
Well I hope he was charged with contributing to delinquency of a minor just like the guy who bought the beer for you.
But I also see how the jury could feel that he was not to blame for your wreck. In a way it does not seem fair for you to try and blame him when you took part in all of these parties and never complained until you got injured.
