Lies and Deceit Quotes in Dark Places

How we cite our quotes: (Chapter.Paragraph)

Quote #1

"You were hiding, sweetheart. No way you saw what you say you did, or you'd be dead, too." (3.97)

Libby's childhood testimony is a thorny issue. On the one hand, it turns out that her memories are, in fact, false. But on the other hand, why do complete strangers think it's perfectly acceptable to tell Libby she was lying? How do they know?

Quote #2

"Did you really see with your own eyes what you say you saw? Or may you have been coached? (3.136)

Although Lyle turns out to be correct that Libby was coached, he's also kind of just telling Libby she was lying, isn't he? Is he trying to coerce her in the same way her coach was trying to coerce her during the trial?

Quote #3

"She's still a little liar." (3.148)

Well, that escalated quickly. This recalls the first quote we discussed here, about complete strangers attacking Libby for her past actions. Why do these people get so worked up about the possibility that Libby was lying? How are they so sure she actually was lying?
