That's also my assumption - that AW and FW are not speaking and that FW would never go out of her way to help AW.
Here's my question: Did Gerlach know AW and RN were having these conference calls? Inquiring minds want to know. Did they know they were being recorded (probably) and if so, did they share misleading information for prosecutors to hear? If so, that was very dumb and risky as they aren't smart enough to know if they were incriminating themselves.[/QUOTE]

Fred knows (when she is not telling the media they are innocent) that Angie had the means to stop the crimes at any time. Fred blames Angela is what I believe. None of Angie's phone calls mentioned her talking to Fred. I have never seen video of Fred at one of Angie's court hearings. I have seen her in court for one or two of Billy's, Jake's, and GW3's hearings.
Normally there are signs up in jails warning inmates that phone calls are recorded and telling them not to incriminate themselves. That what they say can and will be used against them. Angie knew the calls were recorded but when no one said anything for 6 months she probably thought no one was listening to them. That's when she started talking trial strategy and I don't think she made it up to throw off prosecutors.
She told Rita to not testify against them, she told Rita how to explain away the custody documents, she told Rita who her attorneys think may have committed the crimes, she told Rita about her attorneys' trial strategy. Angela's attorneys must be livid. They did not seem upset she lost her phone and mail privileges, (one of them had sent a letter to the other). Her attorneys must be relieved she is off the phone.
Yes Gerlach knew Angela and Rita were talking. Canepa very specifically said in court that, aside from the search affidavit, Gerlach knew about the box of custody documents from phone calls from Angela Wagner. Angela told Rita, Rita told Gerlach.
It is my impression the box was found during the search of Angela's house.
My 2 Cents from listening to court hearings....
