I think Baez DID do a decent job. He got off task and should have cut it off before the Kronk nonsense, but it was a better job than I anticipated him ever being able to do.
I do believe George might very well admit this on the stand. Then he'll promptly kill himself the day the jury comes back. I think he's sick, tired, and going to martyr himself right out of this life. I met George, spoke with him, saw his despair when he handed me a stack of flyers to take back to the Tampa Bay area. It makes me sad.
I do think the prosecution will have to regroup, but there are enough epic holes in the defense story to turn this around. I think the truth will ultimately win.
I'm heartsick for the elder Anthonys. The 'father's penis in her mouth' thing made me physically ill. I don't understand how George maintained his composure. I think he'll do this to save his little girl, because I think ultimately he has nothing to lose. He likely won't be around next year. Only way someone can let themselves be described as a child molester.
This whole thing is disgusting. I was on a high after LDB's great opening and this just makes me want to cry. Yes, I worry about reasonable doubt, but I do think that Baez wrote himself into a cave with his bizarre conspiracy allegations. People can believe one or two people might have had reason to collude, but all those people? BS.
