When Brad speaks of his cleaning episodes while Nancy was on vacation, he says that he "bragged" to Nancy on the phone before she returned that the house was clean and "when was (she) coming home"? Then Stubbs asks him about Nancy's satisfaction regarding the cleanliness of the home when she returned from that trip. (Brad said Nancy went to Lake Norman. I thought she went to Hilton Head? I'm confused on that.)
In that depo, Brad is pleased with himself for cleaning the house while Nancy is on vacation, but then answers Stubbs with the facts that no, he didn't clean the playroom and he didn't clean the bathrooms or floors therein. (He didn't mention cleaning his room either...Nancy had said that the sheets were, well...you know, and little brown bugs in the mattress, when she returned). He "organized" the garage, too, he said. I'd like to see a photo from LE of this "organized" garage, as well as hear testimony from the pesticide guy.
He paints himself as Cinderella, cleaning, doing everything to please his wicked stepmother :bigstick:. The stepmother returns from her vacation in a "grumpy" state, then is displeased because Cinderella-Brad didn't clean the playroom, bathrooms, bathroom floors, nor did he put out the trash in her opinion. Stepmother wants to know why there is no milk or juice or laundry detergent? Cinderella goes to the market not once, but twice within minutes to appease her. And he goes at or near dawn! Now that's dedication. We know he went, because it's on the HT video.
Another thing I have noticed is, at least one of the girls and Brad have problems with allergies. Why would anyone have pesticides applied in their home (most of the pesticides for "bugs" are neurotoxins, remaining as active residue for a long period even after they dry. Physical contact such as a child's touching a baseboard, will transfer it to the skin which absorbs it systemically). Why would they use pesticides, Pledge, cleaning products other than diluted vinegar and water that Brad mentioned when there are issues with allergies and child safety? I know that pesticides are worse enemies than many little bugs that they kill, but that's not an issue in this case. I can't be the judge of why they chose these chemicals, while going "organic" via diet. Guess we have to do what we can and sometimes don't think about the effects of other environmental hazards.
Brad has said that Nancy drank "...more than (he) would have liked." Nancy had her health issues with Crohn's. She was careful with what she ate but allowed for plentiful alcohol (not just from Brad's viewpoint about the alcohol). We already know about alcohol and Crohn's. I still wonder about very early alcohol related or possibly other toxin-related liver issues in Nancy, even though our expert on the boards thinks this may be nothing, and whose opinions are probably more educated in that area than mine. I will wonder until I know for sure.
My best observance of Brad's agitation, heavy duty pen battering, drinking from his cup and being really bothered is when Stubbs questioned him on the green dress of Nancy's and whether or not he laundered it. But oh, maybe it was an orange dress, he says! Did she wear dresses very much, being an athletic mom of two pre-schoolers? When she did, Brad can't remember what color it was, while he can remember the wet spot from the wine spill, everything he did with the children at the party, what Nancy said about "child duty for Brad". He remembered that he played outside with the kids at the BBQ and that they "played and picked up rocks and sticks". He said that he ate one of Nancy's BBQd ribs and liked it. But he couldn't remember what color her wine stained dress was that night??
The "Celine" questioning really got to him too. As well, I remember Stubbs asking him a question about whether he went anywhere BEFORE he went to Harris Teeter the first time. I remember his facial expression and slight flinching type of reaction to that. I can't say what video or where it was.
He puts himself out there as someone who has selective CRS when it's convenient. (CRS when he's in the closet boinking Heather, CRS when he's at a party the night before Nancy dies, CRS regarding a "Celine", CRS about people he works with, CRS about MANY things. I don't think a man who can speak as articulately as Brad or have the education and job expertise got there if he REALLY has a terminal case of CRS). Just some of my observances from this entire saga. "I don't recall", or "if I remember correctly", those kinds of answers get him through many tight spots. So far, that is.
