  Shomaker said the money was supposed to come from Wright, who would get it from Mark, who would get it from "her" life insurance policy. She is referring to the victim in this case Teresa Sievers.

In 2016, Shomaker called Detective Downs and asked if there was a way she could get financial help.

After that she began receiving a check for $400 each month, Shomaker said.

Shomaker forced to look at Rodgers for the first time by pointing to him. It was a quick movement. #trialtweets #jimmyrodgersontrial #teresasievers #nbc2courtcoverage

   Shomaker is asked to identify Rodgers. It's very difficult for her to look in his direction but she identifies him.

Fitzgeorge is asking Shomaker about Rodgers' alleged nickname "Jimmy the hammer."

In a deposition, Shomaker said she couldn't think of any nicknames Rodgers has, Fitzgeorge said.

Defense cross examining Taylor Shomaker now who said in deposition she didn't know anyone to ever call Rodgers "Jimmy the Hammer" despite saying it's his nickname. #trialtweets #jimmyrodgersontrial #teresasievers #nbc2courtcoverage

   Investigators first visited Shomaker's house in July 2015 then returned in August 2015.
   
   Shomaker said between those times she did not call detectives.

Defense also addressed that Shomaker has four children, not only the two she mentioned earlier, and that she recently got married but did not change her name. #trialtweets #jimmyrodgersontrial #teresasievers #nbc2courtcoverage

  After about an hour, Shomaker got in a police car with investigators and they went to the Washington County Sheriff's Office. They did not threaten to arrest her, Shomaker said.

  When investigators arrives with a warrant, Shomaker said she was "scared" and they told her she had to find someone to watch her kids. At the time investigators told Shomaker Wright and Rodgers were suspects in Teresa Sievers' death.

"You were pretty drunk that night, correct," Fitzgeorge asks Shomaker of the night before Wright's wedding in May 2015.

Shomaker said yes, that's correct.

Shomaker said she can't remember exactly when Rodgers talked about making money from the trip to Florida.

She does remember he hoped to make $10,000.

Fitzgeorge asks if Shomaker remembers saying Rodgers was going to make money selling antiques.

Shomaker said she remembers this.

Fitzgeorge is treading dangerously close to pissing off this jury. She better back off a little.

Shomaker said she remembers talking to the police in July 2015 then had several unrecorded statements the day of the search warrant then gave a recorded statement later that day.

Do you recall giving a deposition in November of 2018 when you were asked did they tell you they were going to take your children away from you, Fitzgeorge asks Shomaker.

Shomaker said she doesn't remember that because it has "been a while."
