Trip to tip 'really significant'
Case back on. Stuart Trimmer continues: The tip is really significant. Why the second time, why visit again on April 13? On April 11, theres a lot of activity at this tip, a lot of cars moving about and people moving around. Fortunately for us we have camera shots clearly showing this defendant carting a box which appears to have a white object in it up the stairs, and then also carrying a separate box later on up the stairs. He has a dilemma here, why the second visit on Wednesday April 13? Whats the purpose of that? The Crown suggest that if at the desk where Helen was, she had become unconscious or sleepy, and has been without much mess, suffocated there, its a matter of two minutes work taking her body out round the corner, while sliding her body on the duvet. Its reasonably hidden from your neighbours there. Are there her body fluids on that duvet? Had she vomited? Something you wouldnt want to leave behind? What about the pillow, was that put over her face?
Prosecutors says 'no doubt' Stewart was a liar
This is all in his mind, and there is no doubt that Stewart is a liar. The words that he said, from the first time he spoke about it on April 12 to his sons, right until there was a change in November when he spoke to his solicitors, he ran with lie number one. Lie number one had a number of assets to it that were very important. It wasnt a simple white lie, this is a very black lie, a wicked lie, a cruel lie. To his sons, to his girlfriends brother who sits behind me, he spins the lie. To everybody he comes across, to policeman of all ranks to the operator on the phone when he calls, to a host of community workers, to all the dog walkers, to all those good-hearted people who wanted to find Helen Bailey, he lies. He leads them to believe Helen had just gone, gone to Broadstairs, that she wanted space and didnt wanted to be contacted. Careful and clever, isnt it?
