If the reporting from the media is correct today I would have thought JG has done an awful amount of damage to both cases. Any sympathy the jury may have had upon seeing those videos / photos will have evaporated upon hearing her evidence, in particular her justification for lying to police and hysterics in police interview and also the reason for the delay in calling the police. The fact she says poor Ellie was dead but she only called the police after the youngest went in there is another example o her and him failing to out their children's needs first. They should never have allowed a 3/4 year old into that room knowing a child had died in there ! Also she is supposed to be so distressed at the death but functions sufficiently well to make up a story and provide an Oscar winning performance in interview whilst grieving. It just beggars belief it really does . Her reason being once again to protect Ben Butler!
Re her ring I had noticed this and call me a sceptic I did wonder if they had married as if you are married there are rules on not being able to force spouses to give evidence against each other but maybe that is me just be over cynical ! Have to say I wouldn't have put anything past them. However once they became co defendants they would be hard put to try and apply that rule ! It still wouldn't surprise me if he had proposed to keep her sweet and on side because at the end of he day that is all she has really wanted ! It just seems odd to be wearing a ring now when for the last 3 years I have not seen that in any of the pictures .
