Back out on stage, Joan Naylor said: "Mr. Meredith, I have another statement here from a woman named Bonnie Kerr. She states that she worked for you as an assistant editor at the Take It Back Publishing Company. She says that in a state of rage over her inability to find a particular manuscript, you shoved her against a concrete wall. She badly bruised her back and cracked a bone in an elbow. Do you have a response, sir?" Meredith said: "Have you absolutely no shame, no ethics? That is my response." Joan said: "I have a statement from a woman named Terri Anne Colverdell. She states that you slugged her hard on her left arm after she failed to bring a book to you as you had asked. She worked as a desk assistant in the Take It Back Reference Library in Charlotte. Did that happen?" Meredith only closed his eyes and shook his head. The camera was right on him. I was no longer able to read anything from his face. The peace and serenity were gone. That was certain. Nothing else was, though. Was he going to attack, to bolt, to blow? I could not tell. Henry said: "Another statement, Mr. Meredith. It is from Rene Jeanne Jarvis, who worked as a cleaning woman at your home in Charlotte. She swore in this statement before a notary that she watched you—with her own eyes—slap your wife because she failed to have some laundry and dry cleaning picked up. She thinks she remembers it was a dark blue suit you needed to wear that night at a meeting of your Take It Back Foundation board of trustees." "You are sick people," said Meredith. To the camera, he added: "I ask you my fellow Americans, has there ever been anything like this in the political history of this country? Can this be America? Can this be our treasured democracy, where four self-riotous members of the press, unelected, unchosen by anyone—decide to lynch a candidate for president of the United States right here before the whole world on national television?" |
