[0:00] not all if you were to open a pack of this selfos what color would it be i never use this by myself [0:10] but it should be like brownish white and are you saying that you is this a powder powder type [0:17] brownish white yes who bought the selfos and put it in your house i exactly don't know it's supposed [0:25] to be mamtha mamtha would have bought this poison because it doesn't uh here it come from back home [0:33] everything come from back home she does meaning this was brought from nepal that is correct did [0:40] you bring this from nepal no so mamtha traveled internationally from nepal to the united states [0:48] with poison i did not say that you said she brought it into the house a lot of other stuff clothes this [0:56] that you don't have to go over there to buy this focus the poison the poison yes mamtha brought this [1:03] from nepal he had it brought to her sure okay he brought them ordered them to for the cockroaches [1:29] sure was already able to walk about a tent withdraw was ten and a half months old at this time in july [1:44] that's my question at the time that you saw a month july 30th how old is less than a year less [1:55] than a year less than a year she could walk she was a little mobile no to yes yeah a little bit she [2:06] could crawl about right yes and you're saying you left poison on the lower shelf of this closet that [2:19] could access i did not left that i didn't leave oh this was mamtha's poison not yours usually poison [2:28] any kind of those stuff usually we don't put right there on the top we put on the tops uh closet at [2:34] that time i find on the bottom that's all i know usually we put it on the top shelf but that time it [2:41] was on the bottom shelf okay i'm gonna get past this i think about the last section of this question [3:08] that selfos that poison you were able to see it in her her vomit yes after looking at carefully yes well [3:24] you said it was a powder right yes doesn't powder absorb into fluids that's why i say like clear [3:34] fully look then you can see otherwise not when you saw mata in this condition according to you what do [4:05] you do next i tried to speak to her and when i didn't hear back from her i went close to her okay [4:23] now close to her you're trying to what are you what are you doing to her uh response nice [4:31] when i didn't get a response back i tried to put my hands on her and try to see if she's [4:44] that's when i saw all that at some point you drag her into the bathroom [4:52] that's after quite a while to get more water when you're touching mamta is it fair to say [5:14] she's dead at that point maybe but i tried all the medical procedures i knew then whatever i know [5:35] and she didn't respond to any of them according to you you did chest compressions cpr yes you are you [5:45] did mouth to mouth yes knowing that she had poison yes you're putting your mouth on her ingested poison [5:54] mouth yes and so she didn't respond to the chest cpr she didn't respond to mouth to mouth she didn't [6:01] respond to your words how long does this go on for exactly i don't recall the time plus minus 30 minutes [6:14] a little bit over or around 30 45 minutes i don't exactly recall you were military trained at this point [6:23] right yes you also were trained basic training as a police officer correct yes and a light never went [6:33] off to call medical professionals yes yes right away lagging right away no not right away actually ever yes [6:55] yes you never called 911 no you said you were military trained yes and trained as a police officer [7:06] yes you trained to save lives yes you were also trained to take lives correct yes you were trained [7:15] to kill yes you were trained how to kill with your hands no the army didn't teach you how to kill with [7:23] your hands they use weapons firearms they didn't teach you how to fight in the military i don't recall [7:30] those i don't think so so no hand-to-hand combat in the u.s army is what you're saying i don't think [7:37] so no they trained you how to kill with weapons yes what types of weapons uh machine guns m16 m ak-47s [7:48] stuff like that some heavy machinery yes they also trained you how to kill with knives correct no so the [7:57] military never expected close up encounters with an enemy combatant they didn't train you for those [8:03] types of scenarios i had only the basic training so like i never get any training with the knife or [8:09] pistol or shotguns i never get that any trainings you only learned how to kill with weapons you didn't [8:17] learn how to kill with your hands i did not you said that you brought water to mopta it was already there in [8:49] the uh stand got it so you had to get water from the stand and you tried giving it to mopta yes she [9:01] drank it i didn't mean to say that i was going to give the water in her hand mr pot explain that what [9:13] does that mean i didn't mean to give it to the hand you were going to pour the water into her mouth [9:24] that is correct did she drink the water that you're pouring into her mouth no and you're pouring [9:36] according to you you're pouring the water into her mouth after you had tried to give her cpr after [9:45] mouth to mouth after mouth to mouth yes testified about a stethoscope tell us about this stethoscope [9:59] it is a device to i don't know how to explain your device [10:05] it's a device that measures the heartbeat and the pulse and so you thought that maybe you couldn't [10:18] hear her heart so you went to go get a stethoscope yes where was it uh downstairs where the baby plays [10:28] but these are all life-saving measures you're trying to take to save mopta right yes when you were in the [10:42] military you were awarded cls yes combat lifesaver course yes cls what did you learn in that class [10:53] uh in that class if there is a big wound how to cover that big wound with available resources even [11:00] plastic how to put the tourniquets on uh anybody like get severely wound big wound how to you know like [11:10] uh control immediate clean the airway breath and circulation those are the basic stuff i learned [11:17] how to put the nasal some i forgot the terminology now something in nasal that those stuff i learned [11:24] nasal you mean the nose yes okay we just clarified it wound i had heard that he wouldn't yeah the military [11:38] was training you to save injured soldiers right yes and basic medical intervention is cpr [11:48] yes also in the military they were putting you in these situations that way you become familiar and [12:05] not panic right rehearsal we do rehearsal uh battle training uh you the practice yeah you were you were [12:25] battle ready when you came out of the military right yes you even got a certificate for being able to save [12:32] lives yes yet you completely failed to save mapta's life yes and again you're an i.t guy right information [12:51] technology is your specialty civilian yes you're pretty savvy when it comes to cell phones you're pretty [13:02] familiar depends on what it is and it never once crossed your mind my wife's dead let me call 9-1-1 [13:15] first i know first first it did not come then it came later on when it came later on what'd you do [13:30] with it what'd you do with that thought i scared i panic i was very panic i was scared so as opposed [13:40] to getting her life getting professionals to save her you thought let me go get a stethoscope [13:58] yes yes and not only did you what's wrong when you woke up at 4 a.m was your phone on you [14:07] on my room in your room yes when you according to you saw mapta you said that her phone was laying [14:17] on to the left side of her and a video is playing i don't know it was video or not screen light was on [14:29] look like video or call i don't know look like screen was on and even seeing that phone right next [14:36] to her body you didn't think to call 9-1-1 at that time i was very panic i did not uh able to do that [14:47] okay so after you got the stethoscope what you do next try to find what i know like heartbeat pulse [14:57] and there was none yes now which do next i was tired try to keep try to keep try doing keep tired [15:07] keep thinking i don't know exactly every moment what moment by moment what i did i was trying to [15:13] do the same medical intervention let's get into your emotional state you keep saying that you felt scared [15:29] to call 9-1-1 why because i was thinking not in the initially initially i was just 100 percent [15:41] focusing on the what i know the medical intervention later i feel like i'm i'm gonna get blamed because [15:47] of our relationship wasn't good and then that day before i was about to move out for the you know [15:54] another place i scared about that i'm gonna get the blame that's that's what i scared about everything [16:00] and here you are today yes being blamed by the commonwealth's attorney's office correct yes at [16:10] that time i don't think about your fear of being accused of murder was stronger than your feeling [16:19] to save her life can you please repeat that again and say your fear of being prosecuted for murder [16:29] we'll take it in pieces your fear of being prosecuted was stronger than your feelings [16:36] to save mamta no it's not like that by the time i found her mamta was dead [16:54] already yes she has gone she has already gone sorry have you heard the expression consciousness of guilt [17:04] that's uh can you repeat that did you feel guilty for her death yes did you feel responsible for her [17:22] death yes you are a contributor to her death correct yes you never saw mom to put poison in her food [17:47] correct no and on july 29th only two people could have put poison in mamta would you agree with me on [18:04] that yes it was either mamta poisoned herself agree with me on that yes or the more obvious one you [18:18] poisoned her yes and you're saying you did not poison her never never never you would never hurt her [18:33] never not even withdrawn again and i want to be crystal clear you have never hurt mamta ever physically [18:50] never you're telling the truth on that one yes recall watching your interview with detective [19:14] vantura when she came to your house she came a couple times yes female detective yes she asked you [19:24] about this plate smashing incident you remember this yes you hurt mopta that day right that wasn't hurt [19:33] it didn't hurt no did mopta say when you smashed the plate in her face it didn't hurt that wasn't [19:39] hurt that was not hurt that wasn't no intention no hurt no uh that wasn't anything sir did you watch the video [19:47] you did okay yes tell me if i'm doing what you did correctly you took the plate and you smashed it into her face [19:54] no you didn't do that that wasn't like even you look interview again like that wasn't the i was saying [20:02] like mumta fall down with the wire and then that comes in my head i push like this that goes to [20:07] montage that's what i said that's what happened i mean we saw it on the video but for the members of [20:17] the jury could you stand up and show us how you did this thing with this plate it was a small kitchen [20:29] kitchen this was in your heather courthouse no this was in the wickersham okay you're in the wickersham [20:36] apartment continue our kitchen was on the back right here it was a little bit hot days kitchen all [20:44] the way back a little aisle here and then
