Well, today Emma cross examined the ex wife.. And my fiancée said that she did a fantastic job.. Showing her for the liar that she is !!! She even said she still loved him.. She couldn't remember dates, where she was pierced etc: and went from talking in a child like voice, to screaming and shouting at Emma and the judge!!!! As Emma said to my fiancée... She has hung her self x I'm just praying that the 2 step daughters crack on the stand.

sounds like a good day Mia!

[mia]

Feels like a good day, but were taking each day as it comes....god I've never prayed to hard in my life, that all will be okay. X

The 1st step daughter was cross examined by Emma. this morning. Completely contradicting herself, and her statement.. Yesturday, The ex wife [her mother] stated in her statement, and under cross examination by Emma, that she had never had cancer, and that she at no time had ever told my fiancee, friends or any of her children that she had cancer. The step daughter stated today, that her mother did have cancer in the past and that her own mother told her this !!! Looks like another good day for us... the 2nd step daughter maybe called this afternoon depending on time...im praying that she too is shown for what she is... x

another good day indeed. when my accuser argued with her own barrister i started to think i could win. i wish you all the best luck in the world.

Sounds like another good day Mia and their lies are unravelling

[RFLH]

oh dear - even with the help of reading their own lies before they go in they can't remember them!!

[Dave]

Another thing that made it easer for me, it is easier to remember the truth than to remember a lie, and the more complex the lie the harder it gets for them.

[mia]

Knowing that they have collaborated and are lying, is the only thing I was praying would be shown to be true !!! Tomorrow morning step son is in court, and then it's our turn!!! My fiancée pm, and my oldest daughter. Thursday, ex wife step daughter, my son and my youngest daughter, myself and my brother... It's all coming to a close really quickly... I'm petrified ...

[So angry and hurt]

So hurt and angry

Don't be scared just stand and tell the truth, this is your turn now, be proud that your there for your man and for the sake of truth and justice.
I had to go to court one time to give evidence and I was a wreck ( I had only been a witness to something ) but believe me when that barrister tried to tell me I had got it all wrong, I didn't feel scared I felt rather strong and certain because I was telling the truth ,and you are too.
You are doing the right thing and your partner hasn't done any wrong, remember that.

Hi Mia
Just wanted to let you know I am thinking of you and sending you strength, courage and many hugs. It sounds like things are all going in the right direction flower. Stay strong and positive, you are doing great. xxx

Thinking of you Mia. I am sure you really are petrified. It is a very scary situation.

When you give evidence, look at whoever is asking the question (Crown, Defence or Judge) and then direct your answer towards the jury and try to make eye contact with them, as though you are having a conversation with them, rather than making a speech.

Witnesses come across more credible when they look at the people they are addressing. Don't look pleadingly though .......

Speak clearly and concisely. Don't mutter or cover your mouth with your hand.

I am sure you will do well. You come across very well on here and I am sure you will when you get to give evidence.

Stick to the points asked in the question and don't elaborate.

Thanks for all your support and advice/guidence.. Well stepson lied as I thought he would, but was caught out each lie he told !!! Biggest positive is that the DCI made the mistake of thinking out loud, and stating.. That in hos opinion a piercing of any kind never happened.. Emma asked him to repeat again for the court, which he did .. Problems with air con means that my fiancée and all our family etc: will be giving evidence tomorrow. Summing up and verdict Monday or Tuesday. Judge also cleared the court today and instructed the jury that the 16 counts are in his eyes just 5... Feel that I should be happy, yet I'm petrified all is going to go wrong...

Thinking of you all

It sounds like your getting nervous as the end is so near which would be normal feelings.
