I didn't mean 2 against 1 to indicate odds of success, but as a simple fact that 2 people would be saying 1 thing and 1 saying another (or maybe not). Juries have to decide between conflicting stories all the time. If there is no physical evidence to back up either side, they usually go with whatever seems to make more sense (and which side is more attractive, likable, sympathetic, etc.)
