When Baez called her a lying slut, not the persecution, I wondered if he’s was trying to use this type of defense. Like we thought she was guilty because she had multiple boyfriends and partied a lot. That’s not why I thought she was guilty, I thought she was guilty because she lied about what happened to her child, you lie when you don’t want someone to know the truth. |
I agree...I noticed the tactic right away. I think he was purposely trying to draw attention to her being this huge liar so that the jury can sit there and say...okay well we know she lies and she lied to the police so that's just part of who she is...and then charge her with lying...and that's it. Obviously worked.
