Kim's public testimony began with a lie she had signed nine weeks earlier.
The disclosure inventory filled the hearing wall.
```
ALL ACTIVE ARCHIVE CONTROLS DISCLOSED.
NO PRIVATE DEFENSE CAN PREVENT
CURRENT CLAIMANT ACCESS.
SIGNED: KIM
```
Eleven claimant routes held the room. Each had its own evidence keeper and physical release. Kim sat inside a plain chair with no device, account key, or command line.
The former subscriber with the asleep hand asked the first question.
"Was that statement true when you signed it?"
"No."
"Which word did you believe was false?"
"All. The exclusion was active. It could block claimant access to my source route. I left it off the inventory."
Kim's voice held no sweet mask. The hearing rule prohibited performance filters and allowed the claimants to stop if her tone triggered an old subscriber response.
Nobody stopped.
Farah displayed the private exclusion's first code page. Kim could identify fields and could not touch the screen.
