[14]
But even when the accuser says “You were
found on the spot where your enemy was killed”
and the accused says “I was not,” a statement of facts
is involved; for he must say where he was. Consequently cases of bribery and extortion will require
as many statements of this kind as there are
charges: the charges themselves will be denied, but
it will be necessary to counter the arguments of the
accuser either singly or all together by setting forth
the facts in quite a different light.
