Jasper,
I think Roberts was not camera shy, YET, on June 13. And in the interview with Diane Sawyers he was past worrying about being called to the stand.
Fuhrman wrote: "While we were waiting for the detectives, Ron sent Brad to interview the couple who had found the Akita, believed to be Nicole Brown Simpson's pet, wandering near the scene." (Pg.22)
Clark wrote: "One key witness was Steven Schwab, the dog walker who had first encountered Nicole's Akita running loose in the neighborhood. We hadn't been able to get him up before the grand jury, but his testimony was crucial to our time line. If the murders were committed after eleven o'clock, Simpson would be home free; He couldn't possibly have done the killing and hooked up with the limo driver in time.
The problem was that that the first time Schwab talked to police, he said that he believed he'd first seen the akita around 11:15 P.M. This statement was made to the cops at about five on the morning after the murders; Schwab had been awakened from a deep sleep and was slightly confused about times. Upon more clear-minded reflection, however, he realized he'd actually seen the dog at about 10.45." (Pg.102)
I take it Schwab wasn't called before the grand jury because he hadn't had his "clear-minded reflection" yet, the one that replaced what he told Brad Roberts at about five in the morning of June 13.
This and Robert's notes from the interview could be the reason why he was hidden by Clark throughout the trial and could be safely reinvented by fuhrman after the trials.
A possibility?
