***Day 3 -Committal Hearing*** 11th,12,13th March 2013

[DrWatson]

Wonder why the defence want to cross examine about the scratches again? What have they got up their sleeve? And how are they going to imply that Rob Hoskins is an unreliable witness? This will be interesting..

I assume (correct me if I'm wrong Ali) that it is the defence who have determined just WHICH witnesses are to be cross-examined....

Third day of Baden-Clay committal hears that it is implausible that the scratches on Gerard's face were caused by fingernails

I'd find him guilty on the scratches alone

15 minute adjournment to give Defence time to prepare for witness. @abcnews #BadenClay

Sheesh - even with the half-hour later start, they haven't fully prepared?

Maybe they'll say he had a razor in the shape of fingernails???

Ursula Heger has that the wrong way round:

Ashley McDermid @AshleyMcDermid
#badenclay committal hears scratches "have all the hallmarks of fingernail scratches" & implausible they came from shaving.@9NewsBrisbane

Wonder if she worded that tweet wrong?? Didn't they just say it was "implausible" that the scratches were from a razor???

I thought I remembered the name Robert Hoskins from a report I read just back in Feb. In the report it states his surname as "Hoskings". It would surely have to be the same officer but perhaps a misprint on his name.

February 01, 2013

The court heard from forensic medical officer Dr Robert Hoskings who said Ms Quirk's body was found a week after she'd been killed but was badly decomposed.

Yup - she just corrected it. Unfortunately all the retweets still have it wrong

Maybe something unexpected was said? Change of tactics? Or just a bit slack?
