He says his wife has memory loss and she doesn't want to talk about it.

Didn’t he literally just testify that he didn’t tell his family about his name changes? And now he’s claiming she doesn’t remember because of a medical condition?

 

[TootsieFootsie]

He says she "forgets things"

He says she "forgets things"

We noticed.

There were some pretty detailed things she remembered yesterday. Is it selective memory? Maybe he has it too. seeking to discredit her.

June/September again....

 

[Passingthru]

Not this again… It was June, not September…

 

[TootsieFootsie]

Here we go again, disputing the date..

Casselden is genuinely three seconds away from saying "ffs" at all times.

He says his wife has memory loss and she doesn't want to talk about it.

But forgets about what?

 

[gingertn]

June/September....again

 

[KeenSleuth17]

LOL the document will speak for itself. Yes, it does.
Face palm. He needs to brush up on his skills, it seems his conning skills have deteriorated.

 

[vivienbee]

Why is the judge using the most prehistoric looking laptop I've ever seen?

 

[Passingthru]

Speaking of which… where is his representation?

 

[gingertn]

He is just intentionally taking everyone's time. He is not 'refreshing' his memory, this is his way of attempting to control a situation he has very little control of. This is his only play for control.

An update for those reading from work...

RB claims he NEVER had an affair with Monique Cornelius and that they were very good platonic friends. They met through his furniture factory and she even went to his house in Lux to visit his baby.

Casselden said this contradicts his wife's statement from yesterday. RB then made a song and dance about Dianne surviving brain surgery, he then provided a document to the court from a hospital to prove the surgery. Casselden asked why wasn't the court told of 'memory issues' earlier. RB replied that his wife 'doesn't want to talk about her surgery'.

Then Casselden brought up RB's initial statement where he said that he DID have an AFFAIR with Monique Cornelius. RB said it was a platonic affair.

There are issues now that RB keeps checking notes he brought in, which he IS NOT allowed to do. SO they have just confiscated them, hahahaha.

 

[TootsieFootsie]

His voice sounds a lot stronger now.

 

[Passingthru]

Wait… his “former” solicitors? What the heck happened?

 

[vivienbee]

Does he currently not have a solicitor?
