bbm - I agree, Cuckoohead.
I imagine we may hear worse, but the baptism day near-rape (and that's what she described, IMO) that JA recounts is just about the worst lie and accusation she has told the court, his family and the world. This really bothers me...
I never knew TA, of course, but I think he was very serious about having Jodi be baptized in the church in which he took so much pride, and where he had worked so hard to be a good Mormon. IMO, he felt he was doing work for his God in bringing one more soul to leading a better life. That, coupled with his very probable inexperience with sex, just screams "lie, lie, lie."
On this special and one-of-a-kind day for Jodi (at least in TA's mind, it should have been for her), I don't see TA doing anything sexual with her at all, at least not within just a few hours of the ceremony, even if she had stripped to the nude and presented herself to him. Maybe that night, perhaps. It did not happen as she described it -- I will never believe it. What a sacrilegious and slanderous thing for her to do, IMO. It is my impression that TA and his sibs were pretty serious about their beliefs -- how could they tolerate these words being said by her!
Let me stop.... Grrrrrrrrrr. :furious:
