You just see the violence and the blood and just the aftermath.
It feels devastating to see that.
But I have yet to hear that we've seen the clothing that Brendan was wearing.
They showed his bloodied jeans and blood marks on his jacket.
But the problem is he was there in...
he claims to have been trying to help his wife.
So he had her blood all over him.
So I don't know how they're going to, from an evidence standpoint, prove that the blood he got on him was from murdering her versus from trying to help her.
Just out of research purposes.
Right, and that's going to be a boon for the defense.
We're expecting, just because we do know that detectives that were once working on this case, that were moved off, believed after...
doing the digital forensic work that they do for a living, they determined, they believe that Christine is the one who set up the account.
It's a done deal.
Yes, because if you have that in combination with the au pair not being able to give me detailed memories of
Who set up the account, when the account was set up, who wrote what emails, because for me to believe her version, I would need to believe that she was sure about who did what when, and she clearly was not.
So that gave me a lot of doubt about her ability to convince me, the juror,
that she and Brendan set up that FetLife account.
Because yes, as you point out, that is key to believing these murder charges or to convicting Brendan Banfield of these murder charges.
You have to believe that he and the au pair set the FetLife account up to frame Joseph Ryan and murder his wife.
He didn't premeditate anything then.
