Snippet of Vanessa Bulls Testimony

The judge in Matt Baker’s trial has just now sent the jury to deliberate… We are on a verdict watch now. If anyone hears anything before I do, please let me know.
At the end of the trial, Matt’s shoulders were slumped, and he was withdrawn into himself as he rocked in his chair slightly. He wasn’t feeling confident. Once the judge sent the jury to deliberate, Matt stood up and no one talked to him. He clearly felt alone as he stood there as everyone avoided him. I think reality is starting to set in…

Thanks for those of you who told me about this…
I’m watching it now. It looks like both sides have finished presenting their evidence and now will present closing arguments after a break.
What I saw this morning was the prosecution showing their evidence in tapes, emails, etc. as exhibits. They showed emails where Matt and Kari write to each other when she is feeling really ill. She wrote that she felt worse than she had in a long time–that her hands were trembling and Matt replies back with an email offering to make her a chocolate milk shakes and then says, “Just kidding”. It’s bone chilling, if you read the transcript or saw what Vanessa Bulls said. Bulls testified that Matt talked about poisoning her with a shake, but after tasting it Kari wouldn’t drink it. This was two weeks prior to her death.
Another time, the prosecution reveals emails between Matt and Kari where he writes of having a good time the night before and Matt mentions something about getting “pills”. Kari asks him that the previous evening wasn’t good enough? My heart bleeds for Kari…
Both of these support (corroborate) the testimony of Vanessa Bulls and what she told the court. I wish I had tuned in to see her! I missed it.
Matt Baker is 1000 times more evil than I even saw on 20/20 and 48 Hours. I knew when I saw him there that he was creepy and complete untrustworthy, but I didn’t know the extent of his sickness. This man needs to be locked up for life!!
I think it will take me an hour for my stomach to settle. I almost had to put the garbage can on my lap as my stomach was so worked up just listening to the court and seeing Matt sitting there during the testimony as if he were an attorney himself: completely emotionless and detached.
I haven’t found video of Vanessa Bulls testifying, but I have found a detailed description here. Vanessa details all the ways that Matt thought about killing Kari.
From the WacoTrib blog, and Bulls testimony:
(Baker) started talking about things he could do. He talked about putting something in milkshakes. He talked about making it look like she had hung herself. He talked about tampering with the brakes of her car. He talked about maybe doing a drive-by shooting,” Bulls says. Baker told her that he ordered “chloroform” Online and had looked for Ambien and roofies, or the date rape drug.
What do you think of Bulls testimony?

I think it is the nail on the coffin for Matt Baker, personally.
What I find so sad about Bulls testimony is that she knew Matt was intent on trying to kill his wife and she did nothing about it. That baffles me, but when people are young, they don’t ever believe they have really met someone crazy enough to do it. That’s the only thing I can think of…
And then to read that after the murder, when Bulls went to his house with her family to see if Matt was okay, that he winked at her, it is just chilling. If that doesn’t convince a jury, nothing will!

Nancy Grace had Dalia Dippolito’s phone call from jail to her soon-to-be ex-husband on her show last night. Did you see it? It was fascinating, mind-boggling and chilling all at the same time. You get to see into the world of someone who is manipulative and I suspect is a psychopath! Dalia tried to tell her husband she was innocent and everyone else is lying –so common for a psychopath.

Read moreI tried to find video snippets of the show online today, but I am unable to locate any. If you get to see it, I think anyone can see how psychopaths are able to manipulate people into trusting them. She is so persistent that she won’t give up until she gets her way! She makes everyone, if only for an instant, question if maybe she is right. Obviously, she has perfected her game, but this time she took it way too far and the reality of what Michael and the rest of the world saw on the video can’t be explained away this time, though Dalia sure tries again and again.
I am confident Dalia can make most people question their sanity (judgment of right and wrong/truth and lies) and take up her defense more than the majority of the time. I suspect Michael may have fallen victim again had it not been for the police video tape that is undeniable. He shouldn’t even be talking to her or helping her in anyway! Very sad to see into the world of such horrific manipulation!
