Allen is establishing LS was of sound mind enough to continue covering her own butt, immediately after Al came home, pointing directly at her knowing full well, right from wrong.

And he's doing a fantastic job.

 

[Cindizzi]

Good point.
And how many of us here are using our common names? We almost all of us have alt IDs.

I must confess that cindizzi is not my legal Government name.

 

[Ontario Mom]

Holy crap, when AL said yes, it was common for her to manipulate him, LS started smiling.
Anyone else see that??

BACK IN SESSION. Defense starting cross examination.

Defense is asking about custody of Gannon and Laina between Al and their biological mother Landen.

Tolini is asking Al to verify if something is written in Gannon's handwriting. Al says he can't because he hasn't seen his handwriting in three years.

Al said his mom is a nurse practitioner in the mental health field. He told defense that he has raised concerns about Letecia's mental health to his mom.
Al: I don't ever remember having the thought Landen was involved in any way. She loved her children.

Al reiterates to defense that his suspicions of Letecia started when he didn't find her car parked at the elementary school, where she told him it was.

Al: “My intent was to find my son...My intent was not to hold someone accountable I wanted to hold my son and wrap my arms around him and that's it."

Tolini: You become more and more frustrated with the cockamamy stories she tells you on Feb 14th.
Al: More calculated than frustrated.

Tolini: I mean none of these stuff, it’s ridiculous? Al: Is that what you're saying? Tolini: Would you agree with me? Al: Of course.

Tolini: She told you all of this is a blur. I got up and hoped it was a dream. Al: Ok.

Tolini brings up that, on the call on the 14th, Gannon refers to herself as Tecia when talking about not knowing where Gannon is. Al says he doesn't remember that.

Tolini says Al told detective being with Letecia was like being on a roller coaster.

Al tells Tolini that in the past, Letecia had mentioned one of her step fathers' allegedly sexually abusing her.

Al said he doesn't remember her explaining a pattern of abuse thinks it was an isolated event she told him about.

I know at some point she saw someone about anxiety and got a prescription for something.
Tolini: When you interviewed with detective the first time, were you having concerns about her involvement? Al: Yeah

Tolini: So you told the detective that Harley would say her mom is freaking nuts, crazy? Al: That's what I said

Allen: Did she have a severe mental health disease or defect back then? Al: No sir

Al says he believes Letecia has anxiety but carried herself and functioned normally.

Al is finished and second witness is called, Macon Ponder. He is from Panama City, Florida.

Macon is the senior underwater bridge inspector in Panama City.

[Curious Me]

We all know this is about the bridge that Gannon was found under.

Mr. Ponder is from Florida. Works as a bridge inspector. They get a list of bridges each month, and go out and inspect those bridges each month. Escambia River Bridge being described now. Inspect that bridge every two years. March of 2018, two years prior it was inspected, but doesn't have to be in March. Did Mr. Ponder have anyone with him when inspecting the bridge in March 2020? Yes, they always have someone watching their back and taking notes.

His partner and him noticed a suitcase down there. They didn't inspect it then, but made note to inspect it. It was down under the bridge where they dropped their measurement tool over the side of the bridge. ​
