Summary
This is a page from a rough draft of a deposition transcript (page 106) stamped by the House Oversight Committee. The exchange is between Mr. Simpson (questioner) and Mr. Cassell (witness).

Simpson apologizes for attempting humor, acknowledging the intensity of the situation, and compares Cassell's conduct to that of Professor Dershowitz.
