c
yes bail was refused :woohoo:
reasons:
But Justice Boddice rejected that claim, saying the circumstantial case had many factors that "if accepted by a jury" would make for a strong argument.
He said those included:
- Baden-Clay was the last person to see his wife alive.
- He had injuries to his face that he claimed were from shaving, but a forensic analysis concluded to the contrary.
The analysis showed the marks were scratches.
- He told police that he was a heavy sleeper and had no idea whether his wife had come to bed but forensic analysis from his mobile phone showed it had been unplugged from its charger at 8.45pm on April 19 and reconnected at 1.48am on April 20.
Police also found evidence of a "face time" call between Baden-Clay and his father Nigel's number shortly after midnight.
-
Allison's blood was found in the rear of Baden-Clay's car, consistent with "her body being moved by being placed in the rear of the car".
- Baden-Clay was suffering severe financial difficulties and was due a large insurance payout on his wife's death.
- He contacted the insurance company after a body was discovered but
before it was identified as being his wife.
Baden-Clay demanded an urgent copy of Allison's death certificate and then made an immediate claim on the policy.
- He had been having an affair with another woman and told police it was long over but evidence presented by
police alleged it was ongoing and that Baden-Clay had planned to leave his wife for his mistress by July 1.
-
Entries in Allison's journal on April 18 and 19 talked of the affair and a hand drawn map of Ms McHugh's home was allegedly done by Baden-Clay - proving, the crown alleged, that they had been speaking about his relationship with another woman.
"I do not accept the contention that the crown case is a weak case," Justice Boddice said.
He said despite having many links to the community,
the risk of flight was too great.
