How can a defendant be acquitted when a witness has changed their story?

Because the witness can't keep their story straight. If you think about it like this:
I'm a witness and I've just witnessed crime. If I start changing the story, then who is to say I'm telling the truth or not? As a witness, the story must be kept the same and not changed.

What is the meaning of the idiom cross-examination?
It is courtroom jargon rather than an idiom. To cross-examine means for the other side in the case to question the same witness. The "cross" part is added because the goal of the other person questioning the person is opposite that of the first person to do so. If a defense attorney asks a witness what they saw and their description paints the defendant in a positive light, then the prosecutor will want to cross-examine the witness to try to find holes in the story or convince the courtroom that they didn't see what they claimed to have seen.
