The third day of the BP trial has featured a combative BP higher-up, a BP senior executive who resigned from BP in disgust, expert witnesses in the drilling field, and the star of today's show...the one, the only, Tony "I Want My Life Back" Hayward. Tony, sadly, did not actually make the trip to New Orleans for this trial; his testimony was from 2011, but was entered into evidence today. US District Judge Carl Barbier has prohibited the release of courtroom audio or video, but parts of Hayward's deposition have been available for public view when The Daily, a New York-based daily news app for iPads, obtained a leaked copy and published it in 2011, over the court's objections.
