I have heard that 911 call. Maybe the father knew, and not the mother. Do you think that is possible, or the brother?
Yes, I guess they could have spun an insanity plea. I think the whole family has issues. |
Yes I agree that the mother testified the shower was to be earlier, this testimony was for the brother to collaborate what the mother had said, and that is that "they welcomed the baby openly." The defense attorney had been trying to show that parents were ashamed of the baby, so this worked against defense.
I thought about the father too, but if you remember he was an former police officer, don't you think he would have been able to hide the baby so it would have never been found? Also, why would he tell police officers that the car smelled like it had a dead body in it? Furthermore, why would he have helped her, knowing the law, if indeed it was accidental, and she came clean right away, she probably wouldn't have been in that much trouble, however, waiting, makes it look like murder.
