Earlier I summarized a few key takeaways of Jolie Levine's deposition. Finaldi hoped she'd be a strong witness to support him, but like others she wound up clearing up years of tabloid innuendo.

The most desperate component is how Finaldi—after his disappointing deposition with Levine—drags up Leroy Thomas to try and impeach her.
Thomas was part of Hayvenhurst 5 who sold tall tales to Hard Copy, Maury & police about MJ ordering him to tear up a nude photo years prior.

In fact, the description of this photo evolved by Leroy & morphed from being an Asian side profile without any genitals visible (suggesting it was Levine's son) to a white boy with all genitals exposed (suggesting it was Spence). The cops used his unfounded claims in their lies.
Thomas was paid $20,000 by Hard Copy. He also appeared on tabloid Maury show to take a polygraph. He failed this test when describing the photo destruction story. After this failure, he suddenly implied he still had the photo & was writing a tell-all book to reveal more details.
Leroy Thomas is such a flawed witness that he doesn't appear in any of the state's case files from 2003-2005, despite Sneddon resurrecting almost every other 1990s tabloid gossiper.
This is what speaks volumes about Finaldi—he has only these ultra-toxic witnesses to support him.
