I think it's possible, but unlikely that Barry could have impersonated Suzanne in a lengthy conversation about the friend's daughter's upcoming wedding. Suzanne was supposed to take some part in the wedding, and I'm not sure he would have been familiar enough with the details to pull it off.this is why I am not so sure SM was offed on Saturday evening. BM has already proven he can pose as his wife... he did it on Facebook...and voted for her. The back and forth texting with the friend on Saturday is key. Were the texts brief during the day or lengthy and detailed before they stopped? If brief, Barry could easily have been posing as SM while developing his alibi timeline. If SM was already deceased when the texts started coming in...BM could have been surprised, then started responding to them to buy himself some time. So it depends on what the content of the texting was. I am sure those texts were reviewed...IOW, as I mentioned before...the deed could have been done Saturday am before BM went to the worksite. That would still fit the DA's timeline of "Saturday". I realize it is likely Saturday evening, but I still have my doubts that BM bought the chlorine before offing his wife. I think buying it was a reactionary move...not a planned one. Time will tell.
Also, the conversation was said to have taken place throughout the day. At first it was between 3:00 pm and 9:00 pm, and then was reported as earlier until AM finally said it ended abruptly around noon. Whatever the case, it would have been difficult for Barry to maintain such a conversation while he was at the jobsite or running around town. Imo
