"Doc, if we now see that SP had told previous girlfriends that he didn't want children, I would assume that he told Laci that as well. Why do you suppose he went along with "trying to have a baby" with Laci for about one year before she became pregnant?"

One possibility is preservation of his image. If he refused to have the baby Laci may complain to his family, her family, and their friends. This would make him look bad and he would perceive this as very threatening, perhaps intolerable. It will be interesting to see if the prosecution has uncovered any evidence that he did not want the baby (I'm guessing there are bits here and there -like what we read in the NE and what he told Amber).

I'm wondering why the guy didn't just have a vasectomy on one of his "business" trips? I somehow feel his "issues" had more to do with money and expected responsiblities as in "spending time" with his son. Lots of fathers are "absentee" fathers but they don't kill over it. They just don't spend time with their kid(s)! I think he didn't want the expense (less for HIM) and he sure didn't want to be expected to vary his "schedule" of personal activities.

It promises to be an interesting trial, for sure.
