Agreed. And I'm really wondering about that too. I mean it seems like there has been a ton of new (at least new to me, and I thought I was pretty well-informed about this case) information today that only came in as a rebuttal. And if it never got brought in for rebuttal would we have ever learned of it? It seems like some of this information is rather important, so wouldn't it have been better to introduce in direct examination? And if this is just the tip of the iceberg, how many more things will we never learn about because it wasn't proffered in direct, and won't appear in rebuttal since they have to limit it to what Defense brought up? Like Emma's phone calls with Chad - it sounds like there's a lot of information to be gleaned from those, but will they ever be released? I hope at least some of them come in for rebuttal on Emma's testimony, but who knows?I’m finding rebuttal more interesting than I thought I would but curious as to why some of it wasn’t just brought in during the state’s case in chief.
So if JP hadn’t called GD and had him tell about his dad calling him into the room that morning then we may not have heard about how he told others that he found TD alone and didn’t know where CD was. BTW I’m still not convinced that his co-worker didn’t misunderstand something but he sure seemed sure of it, didn’t he?
And EDM’s refusal to hear the autopsy results and apparently initially the response of all the Daybell kids sure sounds like they didn’t want to know so they could hold on to the delusion that CD didn’t kill their mother.
