A. No, no, no, no, you’re wrong. I didn’t say none of that. Like I already told you
before, my lawyer said that, and since I was on my way to hurry up and get out of
Pierce County, all I did was just initial that, but those words were not from my
mouth. No, I did not say any of that at all regardless of what that says. So you can
call [my attorney]. . . . That’s the one that made those statements, not me.

6 RP at 896-97. James continued “I initialed everywhere where it said initial so I can hurry up

and leave because I wanted to start my [sentence].” 6 RP at 899. He testified that the facts

recounted in his guilty plea were not true facts.

The following exchange occurred between the prosecutor and James:

Q. Yes or no, Mr. James. Mr. Smith knew that M.M. was a real person when he
opened the Wells Fargo account for A.J. Motors?

A. Nobody knew anything besides me, simple as that.

Q. Except you initialed . . . . That was included in your statement, right?

A. No, not my statement, no, not my statement, because I didn’t even make no
statement.

Q. You also deposited the $14,840 check into Mr. Smith’s A.J. Motors account,
correct?

A. That’s not correct.

Q. And you knew that Mr. Smith did this, correct?

A. Not correct. I don’t even know where you even got that from. Like I said, these
are not from me.
....

Q. You also knew that Mr. Broussard created a purchase agreement between
himself and Fast Lane Autos using a social security number that wasn’t his own,
correct?

A. Not correct, for the last time.
....

Q. . . . Mr. Broussard took that purchase agreement to TAPCO and obtained a
check in the amount of $13,400, correct?

A. I don’t know what happened.
