I’m sorry but this is laughable. When is the last time you went to the national zoo? They don’t even man the parking lots anymore much less pay people to check “timed tickets”

Sincerely trying to be objective here but this makes no sense to me. BB already had Ryan incapacitated, but he told AP to go get his (other?) gun from the safe, which she would have access to and be able to open? Why would there be any need for both of them, one of them presumably with little to no firearm experience, to have guns drawn on an already-shot JR?

Exactly. BB, with trained firearm experience, recognizes someone as a lethal threat and acts accordingly, but needs assistance from a 23 yo with no firearm experience who has to go retrieve a securely stored weapon to finish the job? Ludicrous.

hard agree.. righteous people do odd things when they are under stress. BB had the option to tell AP to grab the kid and get out of the house and call 911.

instead of having her call 911, He directs AP to the gunsafe to get a second gun? no way.

I can't fathom what the initial plan was.

You might want to take the time to actually read what the au pair's lawyer is telling the court. Your imagination is not keeping up with the facts that are being presented as the au pair's defense. She says that Ryan was stabbing CB. BB shot him first in the head, but didn't kill him. Ryan was staggering around, so BB told au pair to get his gun from the bathroom, and then SHE shot Ryan through the heart and killed him.

I'm not making this up. It's in the links reporting what was said in court today on AP's behalf. This is her defense. She may think that if she sticks to this story that she can get off with a not guilty for self defense. She may not, in fact, turn on BB if she thinks they both can walk.

IF she does turn on BB, I fully expect it to come with a full serving of "he was controlling me and I had no way to escape -- he MADE ME DO IT!" But, given the way they have woven her defense story, she might think she can convince enough jurors to get off free.

I think you misunderstood - I don't care what the defense lawyer is saying because I don't believe it's true. He's telling some version of whatever the au pair has told him. I was positing other ways the story might have played out in which JR was not lured there specifically to be the scapegoat. Maybe we will learn that it was all planned in advance and he was brought there for that purpose, but there are other possible scenarios where he and CB are both killed by the au pair and/or BB, but it was more a crime of opportunity than planning.

NP but the last time I went to the zoo was in January. Not sure what has changed since then, but they were absolutely checking entry passes then. It's still on their website.

NP. I went to the zoo in may and needed a pre-purchased parking pass, which was checked. Not sure how much has changed since then but the lots were almost full by 9:30. I’m not defending any part of their story but merely stating zoo facts.

If I needed my au pair to be out of the house for something, I would absolutely make plans for her to take my children somewhere. Maybe the child was in a 3 day a week preschool.

I am a Fairfax resident.
I was an au pair back in 2013 and I have an au pair now, from Brazil as well. She said they have a group on WhatsApp and that’s where one of Juliana’s friends released those photos of BB and Juliana together.

Apparently Juliana would post those photos on IG restricted to “close friends” and she has been doing so since her extension, in October 2022. She never mentioned, though, that her boyfriend and her boss were the same person to anyone.

This same girl said in the group that Juliana was a member of another group dedicated to Brazilians that date American guys and in there she would complain all the time about the attention her “boyfriend”, a 38 yo man, would give to his daughter. Stating that he made her feel like the little girl was more important than her.
She said she remembers that clearly because she Juliana would post frequently and that comment was so ridiculous that she never forgot…

Anyways, as a Psychology major, I’m always interested in understanding how people’s mind work and I really want to know how all of this happened. Hopefully the little girl is somewhere safe with CB’s mom.

Are you sure you're a psychology major, and not a fiction writer?

Sorry if that same across as rude but I’ve been multiple times in the last couple years and they are certainly not checking timed passes. Also, there is plenty of street parking available so a ticket or pass isn’t fully required to visit the zoo. And on top of it all, there is the metro

If the first 911 call came around 7:45am, what time did the Aupair leave the house with the child? before 7 am? in the middle of winter, taking a 4 year old to the zoo at this time? Firstly, I can't believe that this child's mother had this brilliant idea, so she could be with another man and fulfill a sexual fantasy. And why did the Aupair call her husband when she saw a strange car instead of calling CB? And why did the husband drive back from work so quickly, instead of calling his wife first and asking what was going on? None of these facts make sense. anything

“Banfield had gotten Magalhaes tickets to take Banfield’s 4-year-old child to the zoo”.

Washington National Zoo does not require a ticket. So we are left with Leesburg and Reston, both of which are closer in proximity to the home but do not open until after 9am. Still WAY too early to have left for. Also, their daughter had preschool that day. Why would they have sent her to the zoo on a school day (which they paid for) when she could have gone to the zoo on the weekend?

Oh god, proof that internet randos have entered this thread and not local people. There is no such thing as the Washington National Zoo. There is the Smithsonian National Zoo, and it does, in fact, require timed entry tickets. Something you would know if you lived in the area. You would ALSO know that it takes at least 45 minutes if not an hour to get from Herndon to Cleveland Park. And finally, if you had little kids, 7:40am is like late morning for them, LOL.

I was thinking about that. Also noticing random off topics to push this thread down. Like the dishwasher one. Made no sense. Just buy a new one. Stinks of defense tactic trying to silence this thread. This thread ain’t going away! We all want justice.

OMG. Someone who lives in Herndon and has a foreign au pair with four year old child that are making the long drive in to the city to go to the zoo is absolutely going to buy a parking pass and sign up for the free timed entry tickets to be 100% sure their kid can go to the zoo. They're not just going to say "end, wing it, I'm sure you'll get in, whatevs!". Why is this so difficult for you to understand???

No, I think he's a murderer, but I'm also not going to believe everything written on this thread because I've been here long enough to know that people make shit up and this reads like it's fake.

+1 good lord. I mean none of us believe the zoo story and we’re not standing up for the AP. BUT know your facts before debunking.

Yes totally makes sense to drive into dc, to the zoo, in the middle of winter and on a school day, when this child was expected to be in class at 9am
