KEYWORD: Guideline E; Guideline B; Guideline F; Guideline G

DIGEST: The Judge’s finding that Applicant’s false statements were not deliberate was not supported by the record viewed as a whole.  The multiple nature of false statements is a reason to believe that they were deliberate.  Inconsistent statements can undermine a witness’s credibility.  Evidence that charges were dismissed is not enough in and of itself to show that Applicant did not commit the underlying misconduct.  Favorable decision reversed.
