His legal team will have worked on what he told them and ultimately under HIS instruction, that what he/ Ford paid them for. An awful lot of time and money wasted when could he have come clean and just admitted it. Taken his punishment like man.
But no, he had to lie and lie, possibly, but more likely probably, got other people to also lie on his behalf. Wouldn't be the first time either
All this episode does is leave a nastier taste in the mouth and shows Ward, in an even poorer light - if of course that's possible!
I'd forgotten how naive and gullible some people are, to be taken in by the crap that came from his camp, I could tell it was bollox from day one!
