The produce brothers brought their old market receipts. Some had faded until the ink was barely visible, but the dates matched their travel records and a deposit they made after arriving without their full inventory budget. One brother wanted to describe every deputy in the county as dishonest. His older brother stopped him and asked whether condemning strangers would make the document more accurate. "We know the men who stopped us," he said. "Let's start with them."
The woman from the fairground sent her original phone video, along with a copy and a statement describing when she began recording. She had filmed Kincaid pulling Harvey from the row and continuing to hold his arm while the older man stumbled. The audio captured Rusk telling the crowd his office welcomed complaints and later ordering music to resume. The recording did not prove why Harvey was targeted in his pickup two days afterward, but it established that county officers knew he had publicly challenged the sheriff before the second detention.
Audrey watched the footage once, then set it aside. Harvey asked whether she had seen the moment his cap fell. She said yes, and he made a small embarrassed movement as though the dropped hat were somehow worse than being manhandled. She reminded him that a cap on the grass was not a moral failure. Harvey knew that; he had simply spent too many years being required to look dignified while somebody else behaved without dignity.
On Thursday, November twelfth, Bobby Kincaid appeared for his recorded deposition at the county courthouse annex. He wore a brown sport coat and an uncomfortable expression. A court reporter sat near the window with her machine, and a camera recorded the testimony from a fixed position. Drummond attended with him and stated that the deputy would invoke his right not to give answers that might expose him to criminal liability on certain subjects.
Audrey began with routine matters. She asked whether Kincaid had been in patrol car seven, who had driven, where he was standing when Lyman searched her sedan, and whether he had personally seen a bottle removed from beneath the driver's seat. Kincaid acknowledged his identity and his presence but began declining answers when her questions turned toward the actual search.
"You were holding my left arm when Deputy Lyman said he found the bottle, weren't you?"
Kincaid looked at Drummond. "On advice of counsel, I decline to answer."
"Did you see his hand enter the area beneath the seat?"
"On advice of counsel, I decline to answer."
"Did you tell him on the roadside that you had seen the search?"
"On advice of counsel, I decline to answer."
