00:34Um, yes.
00:36And what were you doing with the basketball in Jacob's head?
00:40Um, when I threw it,
00:42and then he was gonna get a ball,
00:44and then I suddenly hit his face.
00:48Well, J.R.,
00:50did you hit him in the head a couple of times with the basketball?

01:04Um, well, I told him the first time to stop,
01:07and after the last time,
01:10I kicked him in the stomach.
01:12And then did he stop hitting you in the head?
01:17Yes.
01:18Had you ever done anything like that before?
01:20No.
01:23Why didn't you just walk away from him?
01:26Well,
01:27I was kind of...
01:32It was right at the moment.
01:35I just didn't think about it.
01:37So you just kicked him?
01:38Yeah.
01:39He's a little guy.
01:41Right?
01:42Right.
01:43Not a particularly smart thing to do.
01:46Right.
01:48Now, J.R.,
01:50you know how important it is to tell the truth here in court?
01:53Yes.
01:54And I don't care what you told your mother before.

02:38You hit him a couple of times in the head with the basketball.
02:41And it wasn't an accident.
02:42After he kicked you, did it hurt?
02:44Yes.
02:46So what did you do?
