Well, these past weeks have brought more than a few ‘long-time-lurkers’ bubbling to the surface. Like me. I am Brisbane-based, and, had I been called for Jury Service, I would have excused myself. I have a strong bias toward his guilt.
I met GBC, some years back: albeit briefly, at a business event. I can add no insight. [What I think I remember of that encounter has been clouded by what I now know of him.]
I assure you (shudder!) that I was not one of his hinted-to other conquests. I mention this random meeting to explain my initial curiosity in this most tragic and awful event.
On this forum, I have read the occasional dissenting views re his guilt, with interest. Some have challenged my sense of his culpability. I welcome this. It makes me think.
It also makes my blood boil that the person who took Allison’s life is also responsible for creating so much additional grief through their denial and deflection of guilt. No doubt Allison and her loved ones would be mortified that her personal life, and the ending of it, has been under such intense scrutiny.
Despite the character assassination from the mouth of the man she once loved, and others in his circle, surely there is capacity in this jury of her/our peers to see the ramblings of the amoral, desperate and delusional Mr Baden-Clay for what they are?
I cannot believe they will not see the truth.
May justice be done.
PS: Apologies for the long-winded first post. And my sincere gratitude to the many W/S people who have done an astonishing job with the court posts/tweets. Here is another ‘cheers’ to all you regular and occasional posters for you very-respectful introspection. Thank you, all.
