Prior Statement Cross-Examination Builder for family law

CONTEXT:
You are a litigation support analyst assisting criminal defense counsel in a aggravated battery matter. The attached materials are: (1) the certified deposition transcript of Dana Ruiz, the State's eyewitness, and (2) the witness's prior statements: police interview transcript (1/14/25); sworn statement to investigator (2/20/25). The issues that matter are: lighting conditions; distance from the altercation; identification of the defendant. This work product supports a family law matter, where financial transparency and the statutory best-interests and equitable-distribution factors govern, and where the parties will often remain in each other's lives after judgment.

INSTRUCTIONS:
Compare the deposition testimony against each prior statement, fact by fact. Identify every place the accounts diverge and classify each divergence as exactly one of:
- DIRECT CONTRADICTION — the statements cannot both be true.
- MATERIAL OMISSION — a fact asserted in one account is absent from the other where it would naturally appear.
- SHIFTED DETAIL — timing, sequence, distance, speed, or identity changed between accounts.
Then, for each DIRECT CONTRADICTION and SHIFTED DETAIL, draft a two-step cross-examination sequence: first a lock-in question committing the witness to the deposition testimony, then a confrontation question presenting the prior statement, each with its cite.

In this engagement, additionally: Focus on divergence between sworn financial disclosures and the documentary record, and between claimed parenting involvement and what the communications record actually shows.

TEMPLATE — format your output exactly as follows:
## Divergence map
| # | Topic | Deposition account (verbatim + cite) | Prior statement account (verbatim + source + cite) | Classification |
|---|---|---|---|---|
## Cross-examination sequences
For each qualifying divergence:
**Divergence #__ — [topic]**
- Lock-in: "[question]" (commits witness to: [depo cite])
- Confront: "[question]" (prior statement: [source + cite])
## Consistencies that hurt us
Briefly list facts the witness has stated consistently across all accounts, with cites — these are the points cross should avoid.

EVIDENCE REQUIREMENTS:
For every finding, identify the source document by name and cite page:line for transcripts, timestamps for audio/video, and Bates/page for documents. Every divergence requires two citations — one per source — and verbatim language from both. If a prior statement referenced in the materials list was not actually provided, say so explicitly rather than working from assumptions. Do not classify a divergence as a DIRECT CONTRADICTION unless the verbatim language supports it; when in doubt, classify down to SHIFTED DETAIL and flag it under "Borderline — attorney review."
