Poor Sally. What an absolute

He said earlier he lied in the original interview because he didn’t want his wife to know, right? To the affair she always knew about?

Exactly, makes zero sense. Also if DdeH knew about his affair with Marion in 1997 as he now claims, even if she wasn't involved in the con, that's adding someone else to the suspect pool. He's throwing his wife under the bus imo.

Poor Sally. What an absolute ******

And poor Marion. May your memory never, ever be tarnished because of your dreadful fate that led you to this horrible, horrible excuse of a human being.

Did Casseldan say to his assistant, I'm saving that.....?

 

[caitlincurious]

Saying he couldn't keep up with Marion sexually because she was insatiable - disgusting.

He is a typical, categorical, misogynist. Portraying women as innately salacious, adulterous, bewitching, and himself as a harmless man swept along by them. Gross

brace yourself... bombshell approaching

 

[Derleedl]

I actually want to cry. Not sure if it's infuriation, frustration or disgust.

What year does he currently say he was with Marion during this Jun-Aug period?

 

[Passingthru]

He knows an awful lot about responding to lonely hearts ads for someone who was married for forty+ years

And who didn’t want to continue an affair because he was married with kids…

 

[TootsieFootsie]

He has an accent like that actor in the TV series Allo Allo.

During DDH time on the stand, at one point she said in reply to a question about the relationship between RB and Marion that she knew about her.
And at the time I remember thinking that one comment stood out to me because the way she answered sounded more like she knew for a long time. but it was the only time she said it.

He is vulgar.

 

[bbbounce]

I cannot believe he just alleged that Marion knew he was on an invalid pension but that she was attracted anyway because of his “physique and size”

Note that long glance at camera by LC re leaving ad around house.... mmm

 

[Deleted member 249471]

Can't be Jun-Aug 1997 because she was o/s! If it was during her sale of house, that was April 1997 (not Jun-Aug). Is he suggesting it was Jun-Aug 1996? Then it doesn't add up that she asked him to store her boxes.

Yes, and his wife denied any women calling the house looking for her husband.

 

[Passingthru]

I thought only drug dealers did that. (Having people call a phone booth.)

 

[Ponderer101]

oh dear. could be one of his kids that took a message from Marion answering HIS ad

 

[CrowGirl87]

they've only got 5mins left????

 

[Deleted member 249471]

Sometimes they let it run until 5pm
