IT is day two of the trial of former Brookfield real estate agent Gerard Baden-Clay, 43, who stands accused of murdering his wife Allison Baden-Clay, 43, on April 19, 2012.
4.30pm: The jury was played an interview with another of the Baden-Clay children, recorded at the Indooroopilly Police Station on Friday, April 20, 2012.
The girl, aged eight, told the police she was speaking to them because her mother was missing.
``I saw her last night,’’ she said.
``In my room. She was saying goodnight to me,’’ she said.
The girl burst into tears and rubbed her eyes with her hands at the table in the interview room.
Baden-Clay dabbed his eyes with a tissue in the prisoner’s dock.
“She sings a song to me… ,” the girl said through tears.
She said she went to bed after 7pm and her mum was with her in the room for about 10 minutes.
“And then she came to check on me after five minutes,” she said.
The girl said she had dinner at her grandmother’s the night before and was picked up by her father. She said her mother opened the door when they arrived back home.
“I did some homework and she helped me. Then we went to bed,” she said.
She said she woke up and her father came in to her bedroom.
“He didn’t know where mummy was but he thought she went for a walk. We woke up and had breakfast and then we got worried so my granddad came over and he stayed with us and my dad went out to look for her and my Auntie…,” she said.
The girl said she went to school and then to her grandmother’s house. She said they got worried because her mother had not come home.
The girl said her mother checked on her again before she went to bed but the clock didn’t tell the right time.
``She told me she would,’’ she said.
