3.50pm: The 15th witness in the trial is one of the Baden-Clay daughters, a 10-year-old, who will give evidence to the court through a pre-recorded video taken at the Indooroopilly police station on April 20, 2012.
``About mum,’’ she said when asked if she knew why she was there.
``She went for a walk this morning and she hasn’t returned.’’
The girl said she knew mum went for a walk in the morning about 5am but dad was still asleep.
She said at around 7am her mum was due to go into the city for a meeting except she was not home.
``That’s about all I know about what happened,’’ she said.
The girl said she was sitting at home getting ready for school and getting worried around 7am.
She said her Grand Poppa and aunty came to help look for her mother to see if she was still walking.
``Except there was no success and so then a police car came to talk to dad and when that happened Aunty Livy took us to school,’’ she said.
The girl told the police she lived with her dad, her mum and two younger sisters.
``It was really just normal like every other night, she just put us to bed,’’ she said.
``She just comes in and says goodnight and gives us a pat.’’
She said she went to bed early around 7am or 6.30am.
``I went out to get a drink of water and she was lying on the couch just watching television,’’ she said.
``I just said I’m just getting a drink of water… about 10 minutes (after she went to bed).’’
She said she thought her father was downstairs in the car or getting something from the fridge because the light was on downstairs.
``When I was getting a drink of water he came up the stairs,’’ she said.
She said her father was wearing pyjamas and shoes and told her he was going to do the ironing.
``Probably just walking into my room and laying down in bed to go to sleep,’’ she said.
The girl said she woke up at 6.30am.
She said her father was awake and she asked where her mother was. She said he told her ``I think she’s gone for a walk’’.
The girl told police that they looked out the window as it got close to 7am to see if her mother was coming up the drive way.
She asked for a tissue and sat on the wide, brown couch in a school uniform in tears.
She told the officers her mother had been unwell.
``Just sometimes she has a headache or she’s just really tired,’’ she said.
The girl said her father told her he had scratched himself shaving and had covered it with a Band-Aid.
``He said he scratched it about three times in a row because he had really old razors,’’ she said.
She said her father usually shaved after he had a shower.
