Giles Corey's deposition is turned against him when the court interprets his evidence as an attempt to undermine the legitimacy of the witch trials. His deposition, which seeks to expose the ulterior motives of others accusing his wife, is seen as an act of defiance rather than a legitimate defense. Moreover, the court views his failure to provide a direct accusation as a sign of guilt, ultimately leading to his condemnation. This manipulation highlights the irrationality and paranoia of the trials.
