Cross-examination by Lael Rubin:
"Did you tell George Freeman that you screwed Peter in the ass?"
"No, and I don't use your kind of language, Miss Rubin...."
"Did you have sexual intercourse with Barbara?"
"Yes, we did."
"Mr. Buckey, did you see that portion of a [D.A.] report that states that Barbara said that she did not have sexual intercourse with you that night?"
"Yes."
"Would you describe your sexual relationship with Barbara?"
"In which location?"
"The Fantasy Motel."
"Sexual intercourse."
"Is there any reason that Barbara would say that you did not have sexual intercourse with her?"
"I'm sure she has her reasons. I'd like to hear them."
"Now, you're aware of the fact that Barbara told the district attorney investigator that she. . ."
"Objection! Hearsay."
"Overruled. It's not offered for the truth of the matter."
"Are you aware of the fact, Mr. Buckey, that Barbara has told district attorney investigators that she tried to seduce you but that you wouldn't be seduced?"
"I believe the report says that. I don't know her reasons...."
"Did you and Barbara sleep under your pyramid?"

"Mr. Buckey, have you talked with any of your friends about your relationship with Barbara?"

"Did Barbara get along with your mother?"
"I don't remember."
"Mr. Buckey, isn't it true that your mother told you to get rid of Barbara?"
"I know she wasn't happy that I had a woman living in my apartment with me. The whole family wasn't too happy about it."
"Why is that?"
"Objection. Calls for speculation."
"Overruled. "
"It was their morals. I didn't think it was immoral....I was very much in love with Barbara. " "Mr. Buckey," Rubin asked. "Do you have a belief that child molesters do not have relationships with adult females?"
"It's common sense. If you have a perversion for children you wouldn't have a desire for female adults."
"Is that your belief based on your experience?"
"What experience?"
"Having a perverted interest in children and therefore not having an interest in women?"
". . . I can't imagine it. . . . It's like mixing apples and oranges. It's like homosexuality. You wouldn't have an interest in females."
"Have you met or heard about individuals who are bisexual?"
"I've heard of it but I can't imagine it."
"Now, isn't it true, Mr. Buckey, that in order to counter a claim that you had a sexual interest in children, you came up with and fabricated this account of sexual intercourse with Barbara?"
"I have no sexual desire for children, never had and never will...."
