So SM hasn't said what his decision is on testifying yet. Does anyone think he'd be STUPID enough to? On the one hand, I think if he WERE going to testify, they would certainly not want to give the prosecution 2 days of knowledge to prepare. They would want it to be a surprise or at the very least at the last minute. If he were NOT going to testify, wouldn't the defense just go ahead and say that today when asked? I remember at his last trial complaining that his attorney "wouldn't let him testify" or something like that. Pulleeeaase!
But on the other hand...I can't imagine in any world that he'd be stupid enough to do it.
So what are your thoughts? Will He? Won't he?
He just may testify. Remember all the press conferences he called locally? Disparaged Heather in all of them & played victim. He’s got a huge ego. He loved the attention.
He did it from their home here & television & newspaper interviews in Florida when they were there.
We have always given him too much credit, knowing she was the mastermind & believing he was the puppet. He was the “doer” in that family.
He got the benefit of the doubt & squandered it. He cried wolf too many times. He is not credible & never was.
Now we see his true colors & he’s more culpable & just as evil & self-righteous as Tammy with absolutely no remorse. Seems like this whole thing gave him (them) some kind of sadistic power! Have observed that behavior over the years IMHO.
The jury won’t see all those gloating photos with he & Tammy & the gun or even the branding photo where he so proudly displays his Tammy tattoo with his pants down low, underwear showing & wearing a gun & holster. We saw it though. We remember.
We’ve established he’s not that smart nor clever but actually pretty dumb.
Butfor Sidney, Heather & her child would still be here.
Look how his appearance has changed over the last six years? Dyed red hair, blonde hair, brown hair, long hair, short hair, no hair, goatee, full beard, mustache, clean shaven? She has him convinced he is a rockstar!
My bet is he will testify. He’s got to reveal the conspiracy against them not only for his freedom but for their Poston lawsuit. He’s just got to reveal his side of the story.
He had a very smart lawyer the first time (that he threw under the bus) and complained publically that he wasn’t allowed to testify & it was so unfair. (All this defense for six years has been on OUR DIME)
Hope Nancy is prepared for Sidney to take the stand. Also hope she’s a little more tough with him than she was with AC. Lots of questions left unasked there IMHO.
Otherwise, Nancy & the State have done an outstanding job bringing it.
Praying for a conviction.
