What I don't understand is why they stopped a Tim's Horton's. Was it to pick up something for TS to drink with the Oxies they may have given her.

Something is not adding up here IMO, there's pieces of this story that are not making sense.

It's possible he bought a coffee.Some people claim that coffee ups the buzz of painkillers.

As predicted by the Crown TLM is a sketchy witness and may very well be minimizing her participation however she has been convicted and did not do this alone.

McClintic says she debated what to do but bought the hammer: "everything was going to be ok, cos I wasn't going to let anything happen

RaffertyLFP: McClinitic said she bought items at Home Depot "because that's what I was instructed to do

McClintic says she gave Rafferty the change, put the hammer and garbage bags in the trunk and they drove out of Guelph.

Crown asks McClintic if she tried to get help at Home Depot, percoset place or Tim Hortons. She says no each time.

 

[flipflop]

AM980_Court AM980.ca
McClintic didn't know where they were going. She starts to get emotional on the stand. She didn't ask for help at the Home Depot.

RaffertyLFP:
McClinitic said she did not seek help from anyone during stops at Guelph

 

[margaret_diane]

I'm confused. I don't think he went to pick up a prescription for her, he went to Guelph to BA'S house to pick up some Oxies.

See Matou's post #253.
She has quoted a tweet that reads as follows:

@RaffertyLFP
McClintic said Rafferty told her she had to pick up prescription in Guelph. They stopped at a Tim Hortons in Guelph

 

[tygomuk]

RaffertyLFP:
McClinitc said they left Guelph and drove into a rural area for about half an hour

 

[paris_paris]

good grief... they knew each other for 2 months... based on sex and drugs... and he trusted her to go into a big department store by herself while he waited in the car with a kidnapped child... much more to this story... moo

McClintic did not know where they were going. She did not ask anybody for help when she was alone.

McClintic says Rafferty told her they could not just keep Tori, and they could not take her back. People would be looking for her.
