Edelson has now set his sights on the testimony of political aide John Light one of the "building blocks" of the Crown's case. "This guy is a partisan player...he is involved in dirty tricks." Edelson says Light was bitter because he was first courted, then stood up by the O'Brien camp. Edelson completely dismisses the testimony of the "trinity" of witnesses Light, Greg Strong and Thom Bennett. "This is all chatter, this is political chatter, this is rumor, this is gossip, nothing more, nothing less."
