Yes, which is why they aren't allowed to see the child.

I have to agree, even though I think he's a murderer.
Same. I think he's guilty but he's coming off as much less arrogant than I thought he would. Can't wait to see how they cross examine him!
Its interesting, he comes off likable but he has a resting dope face.
I listened to most of his testimony and he does not come across as likable at all. He came across as very arrogant and privileged. They lived a nice upper middle class life style, with two stable well paying jobs, and a side gig. Nice house in a nice neighborhood. One child, and a lot of support from extended family, in addition to aur pair. He had too much free time on his hands and chose to use it for improper purposes, like affairs and murdering your own spouse.
I hope the jury agrees with you and not me! To me he comes off (so far based solely on today’s testimony) as a likeable/normal/average guy. I hope the CW tears him apart, of course, but based on his performance today, I’m worried.

Christine was aware of at least 2 previous affairs. Both traveled a lot. They did couples' therapy and decied to stay married.
And this is when she made a huge mistake, never ever give the cheater second chance.
Stop victim blaming. If you knew them in real life and she had divorced him you would be gossiping about how she couldn’t keep her man and she broke the family up and blah blah blah. It’s always going to be the woman’s fault for you.
I don’t think he’s coming across as likable about. I think they’re trying to show him as the mild mannered goof who could never pull things off, but it’s not playing. The arrogance is in the lie. The jury has to know he’s lying.
Agree that we will definitely hear about the phone in the drawer when it’s always supposed to be with her! And now the CW can ask just about anything she wants once Brendan is done.
It’s absolutely heartbreaking seeing Christine’s parents. They are so composed, but you can see the grief and anger in their eyes.
