OkayThis isn’t the first time we’ve heard SB had Star on the sofa.
Very small, under age 3, too young to be questioned.
I’m in agreement with this. After yesterday and similar reactions on here today, I’ve just been sat quietly observing. I said a couple of threads ago that Mr. Ali and Kath Goddard both have a client agenda; Brockhill is just so unlikeable as a person/defendant that Frankie would always look better than her, simply by saying very little.I agree with you for what it's worth. I know we're in a minority but lots in here have been taken in by Mr Ali and and this narrative that FS was a victim and couldn't speak for herself. I agree she was domestically abused but that doesn't excuse her behaviour. People ignoring here how she just blatanly lied today on the stand. I don't think she killed Star but there is a lot more she is not telling and for that I cannot feel sorry for her. I know there's one or two on here that will jump down my throat at that but I think it's just down to a matter of opinion at this stage and that's where the thread can derail.
Anyway, what I'm confused about is that apparently Star was found lying between two couches... today FS said she found her cradled by SB on the couch? Also, why did they put her back in the place they "found her" (on the ground) before paramedics came? Setting the scene or something? Nothing adds up from that fateful day
Undoubtedly FS was abused by SB, but I firmly believe that FS also abused Star. I know people are of the opinion that she is likely confused because of the events of the 22nd, but Frankie and her legal team have been preparing for this for a year now. The tiniest of details will have been poured over, and over and over; I can’t give that mistake, or lie, as it was in my opinion, a free pass.
I’d also be very interested to know if FS had a capacity assessment before being deemed fit for court as this would’ve had influence over the QC that was assigned to her, and the preparation prior to the trial.
Anyway, regardless of whether people agree or disagree with my opinion on this, I hope the thread can get back on track with respectful discussion; I know I’ve had to have a word with myself for coming across as too blunt in my posts. The majority of posters are top notch and clearly so passionate about this case reaching the right conclusion.
