Hi Katherine,KatherineQ said:Darin said she had wet towels, and so did David Waddell but I can't find it this instant. She had wet towels.
Officer Waddell never saw her put a towel on Damon let alone a wet towel. His testimony is clear on that fact. She didn't help Damon whilst in his sight.
Darin doesn't mention her putting a towel on Damon until his testimony (I think - would need to check that) which was after the 'wet towel' story had been concocted by Darlie after she saw her sink gone.
The ambulance officer who tended Damon did not see a towel on him.
The Crime Library story was where I first read about the case too. However, you need to be aware with those stories that they are a collaboration of information from various sources and they don't get them right all the time (in fact not even Barbara Davis who was in the courtroom wrote an error free book). Best thing to do is go to the transcripts and check them yourself.
There is no indepedent evidence about wet towels (except perhaps Darin but I would be reading what he said in the context of earlier statements).
She didn't get towels for Officer Waddell. Didn't happen. There is no transcript record of her ever doing this.She may have been getting wet towels for David Waddell.
