- •Witness denies awareness of any prior incidents on the same scaffold, but Exhibit 3 (Feb. 19, 2023 incident report) directly contradicts this .
- •Witness retreats to 'I don't recall' when confronted with his apparent signature on Exhibit 3 .
- •Tie-off anchors were replaced two days post-incident at ~$48,000 — strong evidence of a known pre-existing defect .
John Edward Doe — 11-year site supervisor at Acme Corp., responsible for pre-shift safety on the east scaffold .

Internal incident report dated February 19, 2023 concerning the east scaffold
