He is on Team Wendi, as is Jason Solomon. I am very skeptical of their arguments, but they are no dummies generally. Lat's Twitter today is very complimentary of KM's testimony in terms of her demeanor, deference, etc. He seems to think that the play (ploy?) here is to gin up sympathy with the jury by making her seem like a demure Filipina who could never have done something this terrible. And to be clear about Lat's POV, he is Filipino-American and a former federal prosecutor, so he has a reasonable amount of insight on such things. Again, I'm not convinced of his view and I'd have to see the testimony in person to have a strong opinion about it.
As for KM's testimony, I do think that having her take the stand and firmly state her innocence may have a positive effect on the jury. Her problem is all the other evidence to the contrary. In their rebuttal case and closing statements, the state will need to very very carefully lay out for the jury how her gauzy story of innocence is contradicted by the factual record. In fact, that might be a good roadmap for the summation. State could say, "KM said X, but here's facts 1, 2, and 3 contradicting that. KM also said Y, but here's facts 4, 5, and 6 contradicting that...." To make sure the jury is not swayed by KM's professions of innocence.
