[00:06:30] Speaker 2: no
[00:06:38] Speaker 1: you saw the crime scene photos right yes you saw how blue star was applied into the bedroom in the bathroom yes that line from the bed to the bathroom that's all of mapta's blood as you're pulling her in
[00:06:57] Speaker 2: correct
[00:07:16] Speaker 3: yes
[00:07:24] Speaker 1: you saw before you pulled her into the bathroom a pretty substantial pooling of blood correct
[00:07:39] Speaker 2: yes
[00:07:43] Speaker 1: that blood was so which wrong there was such a large amount of blood that it dripped down through to the bottom of that carpet
[00:08:05] Speaker 3: i don't know exactly how much blood was there
[00:08:07] Speaker 2: it was a lot though right
[00:08:09] Speaker 3: i don't know that
[00:08:20] Speaker 1: at some point i don't know when but i'll ask you recognize this to be a crime scene
[00:08:30] Speaker 2: right i did not think at that time sure but at some point you realized uh-oh i need to clean this up is that fair to say
[00:08:40] Speaker 1: that's what i did not think at that time sure but at some point you realized uh-oh i need to clean this up is that fair to say
[00:08:52] Speaker 3: that's what i'm going to do so i'm going to do so i'm going to do that for a long time so i did not think about that for a long time like with purpose of crime
[00:09:05] Speaker 2: at some point you realized this was a crime yes and when you recognized it as a crime you had to clean it up
[00:09:34] Speaker 3: so at that time i thought it was a moral crime
[00:09:50] Speaker 2: not a legal crime i did not know anything about legal crime at that time
[00:09:54] Speaker 1: well that was a mistake wasn't it okay what at the time you thought it was a moral crime
[00:10:05] Speaker 2: to dismember mamta dismembering any dead body is a moral crime a big crime and the worst kind would be dismembering your wife
[00:10:23] Speaker 1: yes and you didn't want anybody to find out about this so you decided to clean the crime scene yes you bought gloves from home depot
[00:10:43] Speaker 3: right yes i bought but that's not with that purpose you were doing gardening that day no what you're going
[00:10:52] Speaker 1: to use these rubber thick waterproof type gloves on the date that you found your wife dead
[00:11:00] Speaker 3: the real i went to the home depot not purpose of the buying the gloves just before i return i usually buy something when i go any store just that's the what i find next next to the check out register it has no purpose related to that but just i bought it doesn't mean it it i did at
[00:11:23] Speaker 1: that time doesn't mean it's related to that would you agree with me you're a smart man
[00:11:31] Speaker 3: i'm very hard working more than smart i'm smart as well but hard working you're very clever too aren't you
[00:11:42] Speaker 1: in some context yes paying with cash is almost untraceable would you agree with me on that yes turning off your phone so the cell towers can't pick up where you are
[00:11:57] Speaker 3: buying with the cash cell phone has nothing to do but mostly i buy credit cards wherever walmart wherever i go usually i use credit cards so you bought the gloves home depot

[00:52:32] Speaker 3: No.
[00:52:33] Speaker 1: You've been lying about how Mamta died for two years?
[00:52:37] Speaker 3: No.
[00:52:38] Speaker 1: Didn't you tell the police and the family and the community and everybody that was willing to listen to you that she ran away?
[00:52:45] Speaker 3: Not for two years, maybe three weeks.
[00:52:48] Speaker 1: No. Since 2024. I see what you're saying. I'll withdraw. From July 29, 2024. Up until the date that you were arrested, August 22, 2024, you lied to everybody during that period of time about where Mamta is, correct? Yes.
[00:53:18] Speaker 3: Yes.
[00:53:19] Speaker 1: You want us, not us, you want the jury to believe that you're telling the truth today? Of course. And you want them to believe you today, and if they do, you get a huge benefit, right?
[00:53:51] Speaker 3: I don't know about the benefit.
[00:53:55] Speaker 1: You beat the case if the jury believes you, correct? You beat the case if the jury believes you, correct?
[00:53:58] Speaker 2: You beat the case if the jury believes you, correct?
[00:54:03] Speaker 3: I'm 100% honestly, I put everything in front of everybody.
[00:54:10] Speaker 1: Today?
[00:54:11] Speaker 3: Yes.
[00:54:12] Speaker 1: But not previously?
[00:54:14] Speaker 3: That is correct.
[00:54:16] Speaker 1: And you're telling the truth today only to beat these charges, right?
[00:54:23] Speaker 3: Whatever I did, I accepted that 100%. Whatever I haven't done, I never accepted. Never done.
[00:54:32] Speaker ?: You didn't find Mamta dead, right? Sure.
[00:54:35] Speaker 1: You killed her.
[00:54:36] Speaker ?: Never.
[00:54:36] Speaker 1: You did. No.
[00:54:38] Speaker ?: No.
[00:54:39] Speaker 1: The evidence that we presented shows that you killed her, would you agree with that?
[00:54:58] Speaker 3: No, that's your job, you presenting, so no.
[00:55:02] Speaker 1: It's a difficult job, isn't it?
[00:55:04] Speaker 3: I don't know.
[00:55:07] Speaker 1: You've been planning to kill Mamta for months, right?
[00:55:13] Speaker 3: Never.
[00:55:14] Speaker 1: When Mamta called the police, that truly upsets you, correct? In February 2024, Mamta called the cops on you?
[00:55:33] Speaker 3: Yes.
[00:55:34] Speaker 1: You were holding her documents.
[00:55:36] Speaker 3: No.
[00:55:37] Speaker 1: Those documents are the reason that she would have became a United States citizen? No. And if she had gotten her citizenship, she would have left you, right?
[00:55:47] Speaker 3: She already have 10 years of permanent resident card.
[00:55:50] Speaker 1: But she wasn't a United States citizen, right?
[00:55:53] Speaker 3: No.
[00:55:54] Speaker 1: And if she had gotten that, she would have been free from you, correct? Even like she doesn't need a citizen to be free.
[00:55:58] Speaker 3: Even like she doesn't need a citizen to be free. She has already 10 years of permanent resident card. She doesn't need to do anything.
[00:56:04] Speaker 1: But she wanted to be a U.S. citizen like you, right?
[00:56:09] Speaker 3: Yes.
[00:56:10] Speaker 1: Yes. And you made sure that did not happen. No.
[00:56:14] Speaker ?: That's your perception.
[00:56:15] Speaker 3: It ultimately is going to be their perception.
[00:56:20] Speaker 1: But because of you, she will never be a United States citizen and she will never be with us ever again.
[00:56:30] Speaker 3: The document even you presented, you can check. I fill up those form. I have handwriting. All I have done that. You can see that. I have filled out. I have handwritten. Those are my handwritings.
[00:56:48] Speaker 1: I'm going to end with these last couple of questions. After you chopped up mobta, you were talking to blaming mobta. Isn't that what you said you were blaming mobta, you were telling this to your daughter? What memory were you trying to give when you're talking to her?
[00:58:03] Speaker 3: I wasn't trying to. I wasn't trying to give her any memory. She doesn't understand what I'm blaming at that time. You did not do a good thing. You leave us behind. Everything messed up. You did not do a good thing. You keep threatening multiple times. I did not take that any way seriously. So she did. That means we are miserable. Daughter is miserable. Myself is miserable back.
[00:58:39] Speaker 1: She was the bad memory in your life, mobta? Remember you changed her name in your phone to bad memory?
[00:58:47] Speaker 3: At one time, yes. Bad memory run away.
[00:58:49] Speaker 1: So she used to have a name in your phone?
[00:58:52] Speaker 3: Yes.
[00:58:53] Speaker 1: And then you changed it to bad memory? No.
[00:58:56] Speaker 3: I never saved her name with mobta because I have six or seven other phone numbers with mobta. I saved her name with Surma.
[00:59:05] Speaker 1: Surma. Yes.
[00:59:07] Speaker ?: Brave.
[00:59:08] Speaker 3: Yes.
[00:59:09] Speaker 1: So she did have some term of affection from you in the beginning. She was brave. She then became the bad memory. And then you deleted her name entirely from your list. Is that fair to say?
[00:59:24] Speaker 3: No.
[00:59:32] Speaker 1: Because of you, because of what you've done, we'll never have a mother ever again. Correct. You're now the bad memory, correct? Sure. The last question. Because of what you've done to mobta, you are now always going to be the bad memory of life. Yes.
[01:00:16] Speaker 3: Myself? Yes. No further questions. Yes.
[01:00:22] Speaker 1: No further questions.
