Jake Embert was gay and had transmitted diseases?

What was Susan talking about?

On the stand, Yvonne testified her brother was not gay and Susan was lying.

No.

The prosecution brought up another apparent inconsistency in the 911 call.

Susan told the dispatcher she didn't touch Jake.

All right, ma'am, don't touch him or anything, okay?

I'm sorry.

But Will testified that when he saw her at the scene... I remember seeing her on her hand.

Susan's defense team had one clear message.

The coroner's first determination was the right one.

This was a suicide.

The kind of death that can be hard to accept.

They planned their counterattack to the state's narrative around Susan.

They called her to the stand and asked her directly about that 911 call.

I was ecstatic.

As for telling the dispatcher Jake was gay, I don't know why I said that.

I had no proof that he was gay.

She did testify that she and Jake were having intimacy issues.

During that call, you told the operator that Jake was gay and had transmitted diseases.
