It's in the transcripts, I think when Dusek did redirect. He asked if she was concerned about Barbara hurting her children. She said, "no."

He asked if she was so comfortable about Barbara that she gave her permission to go upstairs. Brenda said that Barbara just went up on her own.

I'm not too good at searching through the transcripts, maybe someone can find them. It all sounded interesting in light of recent speculation here.

The testimony of Denise was weird to see. Her body language and darting eyes and giggles at the most inappropriate places just screamed, liar! liar!

A couple of times, it sounded like she was reciting a script and lost her place.

I'm convinced the whole scenario at the the vd's Saturday night was concocted by a committee of drunks. So many strange, nonsequiter-ish comments in Brenda's testimony reminds me of spaghetti being thrown against a wall. I wonder what will be left sticking.....

There are two threads going. Since not everybody is on both of them, I thought some of you might be interested in these comments ...

Shen said she lifted long green fibers from Danielle's clothes.... Now I know Danielle had clothes in her room. I know she was found naked the long green fibers were collected from both places... I think Shen made a mistake in admitting that she took fibers from danielle's clothes. I think later she tried to cover it up by saying that the different sets of long green fibers were not similar... I could be mistaken, but right now that's what I think....

The original statements were that the searchers identified her by her clothes. That has always struck me as odd. What evidence was on those clothes? DNA of the killer? Why was LE in such a hurry to get the pics that the searcher took before LE got there.

Barbara had opportunity:

If you read the transcripts of the pizza eaters, Denise, Rich, and Keith. They say that they don't remember seeing Barbara until it was time to leave, or at 2:30AM. So where was Barbara while, Damon, Brenda, Denise, Keith and Rich were at the table? If Damon came down- soon after Brenda went up and said "rude", why did Barbara stay up there for 20+? minutes or more, while the rest of the people were in the kitchen? (if that is what happened) Maybe she was checking up on Danielle???? Note: Soon after pizza- mood gets "Somber".

I started seeing Barbara as dangerously aggressive after reading Ms. Welty's/sp? testimony. She described how Barbara shoved her hand/arm arm down Welty's blouse -to cop a feel- while at Dad's the same night of all this stuff. Just think, Barbara wasn't trying to hurt Ms. Welty, she was trying to check out Ms Welty's breasts.
