Smiths character for the movie would have to have been Gary Rich Burghoff ! Dead ringer!

RB is played by Gerard Depardieu

He’d have the contempt for women down flat at least.

Casselden is the twin of Dan Andrews (Premier of Victoria) lol

I have thought that too

Funny how he couldn't remember her, but now he vividly remembers talking to someone from Noumea when she first spoke to him.

People who aren’t committing perjury don’t feel the need to say that they aren’t committing perjury.

Hello! Have been listening to the proceedings today but had to ACTUALLY get some work done today so refrained from jumping on here Oh the restraint!!!

Very excited to scroll back through your conversations over the past 4-5 hours. WHAT A DAY! Just another round of BS, BS and more BS. But it is excellent!

Poor Ms Gaffney-Bowen. I don't believe it for a second. He's a fool.

So now he's saying GGB was on drugs and demanded he took salacious photos of her, smh

 

[Deleted member 249471]

RB claims GGB was on drugs and apparently dragged RB into her bed.
Casselden asked, she dragged you? (He's 6 foot 2)
RB replied, 'uh, no, she invited me to her bed to take salacious pictures of me'.
Apparently, the next day a stranger turned up to GGB's house to take the camera and pictures away.

“Where were you living when you killed Marion Barter, Mr Blum?”

for those following this not watching, he did NOT ask this question.

Have you looked on street view of the house in Rubiton st Wollongbar? I wonder when the driveway was done?
The dip in it is in a very odd location.

 

[vivienbee]

I know they have to build it up but I really, really just want them to get to asking about Marion.

For those keeping score...
A conviction will likely rest upon proving RB 'deceived with the intent of financially profiting'.
So he can admit to 'deceit', and can admit to 'financially profiting'.
But never the twain shall meet.
So it's pretty interesting to see him try to only ever agree to doing one of those things a time.

 

[Belleandsebastian]

I wonder if this is where he'll have a "medical incident"

I’m sort of shocked that he testified he didn’t have her permission to take the money. Now if they can prove he took the money he’s screwed.

Here we go…. Will 5 mins result in adjourned for today?
