Matt Baker Gives Jailhouse Interview

Matt Baker interview with KXVV.com

Matt Baker, who was convicted earlier this year for murdering his wife Kari Baker, sits down in his first jailhouse interview since his conviction. Matt, who is still clinging to his innocence, tells us he believes he would not be in prison if he did two things differently. He says that he wouldn’t have had an affair with Vanessa Bulls, “I would have completely steered clear of that. And number two, I would have sought out better help for Kari.”

Read moreI’m sad to report, if Matt did two those things, he probably would have gotten away with murder, and that is what Matt has realized now that he has had some time behind bars to get honest and face reality.

Matt Baker has always claimed that his wife, Kari, committed suicide. I don’t believe him whatsoever. You can read my thoughts on Matt Baker here (scroll down for the earliest post). In this interview, he is now saying that maybe her death was a result of accidental reaction to alcohol and medicine. That’s a new theory, Matt! I suspect he wants to win an appeal because he also complains he wished his attorneys would have called witnesses, “I was dumbfounded when they called one.”

Matt Baker also says he now wishes he would have taken the stand in the trial.

In the second interview, Matt confirms for us, he does want an appeal. Then he says something chilling. He says, “I honestly know, and I know it is hard to…to get it across, but I loved my wife, even though I made a mistake.”

That’s the understatement of the century, Matt. Your mistake was that you got too cocky and confident and your behavior, words and history caught up with you and gave your lies away.

Update:

Karon made a fascinating statement below and I wanted to repeat it here. It was too good to miss:

Matt gives himself away in this interview. He says that her death was either suicide or a mixture of alcohol and meds. He must have forgotten, there was a typed suicide note? If he didn’t type the note himself, and if he was innocent, he should be, absolutely, certain that it was a suicide. A person doesn’t leave a suicide note with an accidental death caused by a mixture of alcohol and meds. He is just throwing ideas out there and hoping one sticks. He knows he killed her and typed the suicide note.

Superb catch, Karon!

Shannon Price smiles about what it was like….

I just watched an interview with Shannon Price for Entertainment Tonight. I saw the link through Celebitchy.com.

My heart stopped when I watched the first minute.

Read moreWhen the reporter asked Price what it was like for her to take him off of life support, Shannon gives a quick positive expression. She grins…do you see it? It’s astounding!!!! And very hard to watch. I don’t know if it would be classified as a micro expression or not, but it very telling about what she felt when she pulled Gary off of life support. If some people don’t see it, it is likely a microexpression.

Shannon also says that she has a copy of the will and that Gary wanted her to have everything! Is this a motive?

When the reporter asks her, “Did Gary die broke?” Watch Shannon smile as she says, “No”. That brings me back to her statement in the earlier interview I reviewed today where she said, “You know….We’ve been struggling… a lot… with financial stuff, but now that he is gone, its a little more difficult.” That becomes all the more chilling…

Shannon ends the interview with “Gary is my best interest right now, so I am going to do what he wants.” That’s absolutely chilling.

Joran van der Sloot: Caught on Tape

MSNBC Video of Joran van der Sloot at the Tac Hotel
with Stephany Flores Ramirez, “Caught on Tape”

There is chilling video of Joran van der Sloot coming out on MSNBC showing him smiling as he gets a key to a room in the Tac hotel. The video shows a timid girl, bowing her head, walking behind him after he receives the key. I suspect it is Stephany Flores Ramirez.

Read moreWhat is more haunting is to watch Joran walk out of the room later, closing the door behind him. He is not smiling this time. To think about what likely just occurred in that room, it gives you a horrible feeling that he can just walk away without worry. He goes to the hotel clerk and tells them not to disturb “his girl”. No one disturbs the room for two days, even though the TV is blaring behind the door. It gives you the chills.

When footage is shown with Joran talking to investigators about his belongs being left behind back in Chile, we see the arrogant Joran enjoying the spotlight again. He smirks and expresses positive emotions. He loves being the center of attention and it obviously doesn’t matter if it is negative attention. It’s flat out creepy to watch. It doesn’t bode well for an innocent victim being accused of something he didn’t do, does it?

When the police paraded Joran in front of the press, his eyebrows are down, suggesting he didn’t like it, but there was obviously nothing he could do about it. It supports why he didn’t say a word.

Thanks, Anne, for the story information.

Shannon Poses with Gary in Deathbed Photos?

TMZ is reporting today that Shannon Price is behind the deathbed photos being shopped around for five figures. Read the story here. There is more here. I will be watching the mainstream media to see if they pick up this story. Thanks, Alma, for the update.

Update: KSNT has picked up the story at 1:44 PM.

Read my review of Shannon Price’s interview with GMA today here.

Shannon Price: “I’m just happy he’s …at rest.”



Shannon Price on Good Morning America June 7, 2010

Shannon Price did another interview and again, she is setting off alarms in my head. This time she is shown in a wheelchair and stays put in that wheelchair through the entire interview. Shannon also talks about her seizures, “As you guys know, I recently have seizures.” The word “recently” really stood out to me.

Read moreAt one point during the interview, she had to stop, because she thought she might be having a seizure. Interestingly enough, watch the footage ABC shows. She doesn’t stay put when she fears one is coming on. She gets up! Isn’t that ironic? Wouldn’t she be afraid she’d fall? I would think medical advice would be to stay put, in a sitting position, if you fear a seizure coming on.

GMA asks Shannon what happened the day Gary fell and she says, “I asked him if he could make me some food, and he went downstairs and I heard this big smack. I rushed down there and I found him lying in a pool of blood.”

The “pool of blood” is something she never mentioned in the 911 call at all. It’s new information. Also, if Shannon rushed down as she said, would the blood already be pooling in a matter of seconds to a minute? I am not an expert, but I would be curious what an expert would say.

Also, if Gary was unconscious as she first said, how was he laying? Was he laying back on his head where he hit it? If so, could she have seen the blood pooling then?

GMA plays a part of Shannon’s 911 call where she sounds cold and callous and Shannon replies, “You know, I was with him there the whole time. I was trying to find towels and stuff like that, but yeah, seeing him in a pool of blood was difficult, I mean, you know, um….if it was someone else in my situation, I mean… I’m sure they wouldn’t know what to do either.”

She was with him the whole time? Does she have a selective memory? I remember clearly how she was talking to Roxie the dog and said to Roxie, “Come on” as in “Let’s go” when she said she couldn’t stand seeing the blood. It was then that she yelled at Gary, “What’s wrong?!”.

Shannon explains the divorce away by saying “It wasn’t what we wanted, we just had a disagreement…”. Does anyone believe her? She also talks about how they wanted to renew their vows, but didn’t due to health issues, but supposedly planned to soon. This is new information, too, according to GMA.

Another time Shannon says in an angry tone about her relationship, “We loved each other. It was golden”. Watch her squint her eyes in anger! She does this several times in interview. This woman is incapable of expressing sadness, sorrow, love or any emotion of sympathy for her ex-husband. It’s flat out bone chilling.

When asked about her financial situation, Shannon says, “You know….We’ve been struggling… a lot… with financial stuff, but now that he is gone, its a little more difficult.”

What?

Does that make sense?? Nothing would have changed for her if Gary wasn’t working from last week to this week. However, if she was somehow involved in Gary’s death, could she be thinking, “…now that Gary is gone, its gonna be a little easier”? This is awful to think about, but that would make her statement, which doesn’t make sense, make sense! Chilling to think about…

Gary Coleman’s parents have wanted to talk to Price, but she hasn’t been willing. Shannon says, “Well my brother called them…um… and talk to the mother, and said, if you have any questions, let me know and she didn’t really say anything, so…”

I was stunned at how Shannon referred to Gary mother, even with them being estranged, as “the mother”. It is so removed and cold and the fact that she won’t speak to his parents is flat out heartless. Why can’t she do that?

Shannon says, “…I just hope Gary is happy and he is in a better place, and he is not suffering anymore, you know, with all the health issues he’s had over the years. I’m just happy, you know, that he’s finally peaceful and at rest. We have discussed death a few times and he said it would be very unfair if he left me…all of the sudden… and … I mean…. I really respect that, you know, because I loved him and he loved me, and you know, we just can’t live without each other.”

These words of Shannon’s jump out at me: “I’m just happy, you know, he’s finally peaceful and at rest.” She doesn’t talk about how he suffered at the end. Instead she talks about how he had all these health issues over the years! Is that why she is happy he is finally peaceful? As if his life was hell and it needed to end? Is that what she thinks? The connection of these two thoughts are eerie.

I could understand her talking about how horrific Gary’s last day was due to complications of his injuries, but to relate it back to his health issues he had over the years, you have to wonder if they were grating on her nerves. It’s horrifying to think about. Did she want to be free of Gary and saw no other way? By the way Shannon’s thoughts are revealed, you can’t help but question this.

In the interview, Shannon told GMA off camera that Gary didn’t want a funeral or to be buried. He wanted to be cremated. The media reports that Gary had a will. I wonder if that will be in there, or if this is just what Shannon wants…
