The moustache 😀 I noticed that. Making her look old, hagard, beat down, and like she may have been desperate and dependent on him...she should serve as much time as he does, the rest of their lives.

Did they have other nannies or was she the first?
I hope that Christine's family get custody of her daughter. I hope they instill in her all the love her mom had for her and help her retain any memories she has of her. I doubt that's being done with Brendan's evil mom. MOO

She reminds me of an ugly version of Michael Jackson’s son and also the guy who was recently sentenced for rape and faking his death (name?).

BB is embarrassed by her current look since he killed his wife for the Blonde Brazilian Bombshell and she looks like death now🧐 Everyone is thinking how stupid he is for falling for the girl with the moustache and missing tooth.

I’ve never seen a defendant look so obviously guilty. He is putting more time into not looking guilty than anything else.

Today on CTv they said that he is going to admit to the affair but not the murder, and that she is lying. Good luck with that.

I think that Court TV assumed there would be more about their affair brought into evidence because the whole thing did sound like good TV.

Hype. They exaggerate the upcoming trials as though they are going to be blockbusters.

Yep, she should serve as much time as BB.
She had no problem pulling out her gun and ending JR's life.

I don't get the prosecution's fears that they didn't have enough evidence to convict them both so they groveled to get the au-pair to testify against BB and will suggest to the judge time-served to boot.
She played a willing partner role in taking Christina away from her daughter forever,

Hopefully the judge sees that she has no remorse and is a cold blooded killer and gives her the 10 years.
imo

I thought that she is off the hook?

No.
For her cooperation the prosecution is recommending to the judge that after BB's trial when she is sentenced in March(?) that she's sentenced to time served.
She would already have served about 2-ish yrs but the judge can sentence her up to 10 years for manslaughter.

Has anything been reported on what area of investigations BB did for the IRS?

Thanks for the clarification. I hadn’t heard that. All of the CTv crew are saying that she is packing up to go back to Brazil.

Where has the au-pair's deal gotten the CW?
I don't get it.

Anything yet on BB & au-pair's writing style that didn't match up with how Christine writes when they pretended it was Christine writing Joe from the fetish site?

I don't get it.

Do you mean has she helped the prosecution? Her timeline matches when BB went to McDonalds, she places him at the scene, the 911 call, the guns and she confirmed the name Anastasia.

I don’t think anything matches up there because it was so out of character for Christine. But I guess everyone could have a secret lifestyle. From what I saw today it seems like BB was the one who was communicating with Joe. I don’t think that JM has the cultural language skills to create that banter.

I notice her lawyer has changed her image for the stand - no longer blonde. Now wearing glasses and a moustache.

We all see through this nonsense.

She is just as guilty as the husband for the murder.

The difference between hot-to-trot “nanny” Julia and witness nerdy school girl Julia is astounding.

Surprised defense counsel doesn’t have a before photo in evidence like Georgia did with Donna Adelson (not a frumpy granny in sweaters). MOO.

Those eyeglasses on her aren’t flattering. I like big glasses and I have a good amount of them but hers wouldn’t look good on most women.

Does anyone know if J had any criminal past in Brazil?

She’s just as guilty of murder. It doesn’t matter if B was planning this with other women, she’s the one who jumped on board, participated in and went through with the sick plan. She shot a man dead. I don’t understand this prosecution plan at all. Lock them both up for good!

J’s big payday from Dateline or 48 hours won’t last long if she’s only getting a measly 25-50 grand from the media outlets acting like vultures for the story.

It's pretty insane what hair bleach and make up can do. Yikes.

I would assume the au pair background check would catch that? No idea though. Mooo .

Once Juliana was finished seems like pace picked up.


No court today, resumes Tuesday.
