The Crown v Gerard Baden-Clay, 1st July - Trial Day 13, Week 3

[jens]

Is it possible that GBC told his Gorgeous Girl mistress - during the 'lay low' conversation - that he would say all kinds of awful stuff about her, but not to worry as he needed to do it so that he could be free to come to her?

Maybe that's why she said so little? Maybe it is part of the plot?

I would be interested to know if they have had any contact since he has been in jail, any visits, phone calls etc. Then again he could have made contact with her via his family.

Gerard has finished detailing her first route and is describing the second. #badenclay

Gerard says the first walking path is around the school, the second to "the old people's home". #badenclay

Gerard says these were the routes Olivia searched more than once that morning. #badenclay

She had different routes, and Gerard's sister searched some of them, on foot and by car #badenclay

Olivia knew the area, searched those routes #badenclay

The first is the call Gerard made to an insurance company to ask how he could make a claim on Allison's life insurance. #badenclay

Gerard is crying as he said the day before police had found Allison's body. He says his father told him he had an "obligation". #badenclay

Hang on a minute... GBC has just told the jury that Allison's car was in the carport overnight and his was out in the yard.

Then in the morning he walks past his car to get into Allison's to go look for her?
Why would he do this if his car was already out?

It was Allison's car that had the blood in it wasn't it? If that's the case then I'm thinking that perhaps he didn't want to wake the girls when he came back from 'his nightmare sleepwalking incident' after having used Allison's car and it was therefore closer to the gate. Huh??

#badenclay is being asked why he called life insurance day after body found, he says, through tears, Dad told him to. @9NewsBrisbane

 

[Amee]

Caroline Overington ‏@overingtonc 1m

He did so because his Dad told him he had an obligation to let the insurance people know #badenclay

Caroline Overington ‏@overingtonc 1m

He says he did not fill out a claim form #badenclay

When his dad arrived around 7am, Gerard says he went out in the Captiva looking for Allison #badenclay


Francene Norton ‏@francenenorton 39s
#badenclay says when his dad arrived, he went out looking for Allison straight away on the 20th April 2012. @abcnews

I really hope the PT ask him why he didn't call Kate Rankin first seeing she was going to the conference with Al. I mean really! Or asking her best friend or her parents? For the love of Pete.
