ABC15 - Phoenix, AZ






It could be a very interesting week in the so-called "Baby Gabriel" case.

All of the key players in the national investigation are involved in significant events happening in the Valley this week.

Gabriel Johnson was last seen the day after Christmas in 2009.

His mom, Elizabeth Johnson , took the boy from Tempe to San Antonio where the boy vanished.

I guess we will have to wait til tomorrow AM to find out what transpired after the lunch break...The opening statements were interesting...I got the impression that the prosecutor was a bit green or camera shy because of her getting the names mixed up...She did look a bit inexperienced, nervous and hesitant...

This is gonna be a hullapalooza of a trial...Poor little Gabe...where ever he is...didn't ask to be used as a pawn...

RE: Tammi Smith trial - Baby Gabriel Johnson case - Phoenix, AZ


Judge McMurdie told the jurors to be on the 6th floor tomorrow (Wednesday) at 10:25 a.m (MST) and when they were ready for them, some one would come and get them.

Some Arizona media are reporting that the trial resumes at 10:30 a.m. MST on Wednesday.

It would be 12:30 p.m. CDT; 1:30 p.m. EDT.

InSession on TruTV (television) is streaming live; CNN.comLive is streaming and KPHO - Phoenix, AZ is streaming.

I noticed today CNN cut their Live Stream late this afternoon. I assume because they are on Eastern time. However, KPHO in Phoenix Live Streamed until the court was recessed for the day.

I had windows open for CNN Live and KPHO with the volume turned off on KPHO. When CNN cut away, I immediately clicked on my open KPHO window and did not miss any of the trial.
~~~~~~

The Defense said Tammi Smith will testify. It should be interesting to hear that "mouth piece" testify!

Today I noticed Tammi smirked and made several facial expressions. She needs to get rid of her "attitude." That woman really turns me off.

At times she took notes and when the camera zoomed in on her, she had a huge, huge ring on. Black. Looked like some type of costume jewelry. Tammi is sporting a new look. She has lost lots of weight and has jet black hair now.

Logan McQueary was the first witness to testify. He came across as credible. Finally, getting to know the facts in this case and what happened prior to the disappearance of Baby Gabriel.

Interesting trial. Logan McQueary resumes testimony on Wednesday!

Opening arguments begin in the trial of Tammi Smith, seated with one of her attorneys Michael Lee and Anne Phillips at the South Court Tower in the Central Court Building in downtown Phoenix.


Tammi and Jack Smith never met Logan McQueary before they began barraging him with phone calls and e-mails and offered him $1,000 to sign over his parental rights to his son, Baby Gabriel, McQueary testified on the first day of Tammi Smith's trial.

Tammi, the woman who wanted to adopt Gabriel, and her husband, Jack, told McQueary that if he signed the papers, Gabriel would return safely to Arizona, McQueary testified.

Tammi, 40, of Scottsdale, is charged with forgery and conspiracy to commit custodial interference with Gabriel's mother, Elizabeth Johnson.

RE: Tammi Smith trial (Baby Gabriel Johnson case) - Phoenix, AZ

Reminder:

There is no trial on Friday, 4-27-12. Trial resumes on Monday, 4-30-12, at 10:30 a.m. MST
which is 12:30 p.m. CDT/ 1:30 p.m. EDT.



The judge said there will be 4 trial days next week (Monday thru Thursday).

He asked the Prosecution about the status of when they might rest their case. The Prosecution told the judge the name of the witnesses scheduled to testify next week. One is a police officer and the others are detectives. I think they named 5 detectives. The Prosecutor told the judge that Detective Ramirez (might be misspelled) will take quite some time.

The State might rest on Wednesday or Thursday. If so, the Defense will present their case on Thursday.

The judge told the Prosecution and Defense to do a "dry run" on everything they plan to publish. He wants to make sure everything is working and there are no delays in the trial.

If you've watched the trial, you know that the Prosecution had problems with playing back recordings, etc.

Last week the judge told the jury there is new technology in the court room and he apologized to them for having to wait while the attorneys tried to get things to work.

During Thursday's testimony, Tammi Smith continued to smirk, make facial expressions and at times I think she smiled at inappropriate times. Oh, she wore a black gaudy ring Thursday. Huge. Inappropriate for a court room, especially since she is the Defendant.

Baby Gabriel case: Messages flew between principals

by Laurie Merrill - May. 1, 2012 06:10 PM
The Republic | azcentral.com
Phoenix, AZ

Frantic phone calls to Tempe police, MySpace posts offering to finance a surrogate's baby, a father's e-mail begging his ex-girlfriend to let him raise their son.

These were but a few of the virtual missives that flew back and forth between the principals in the Baby Gabriel case: The baby's mother, Elizabeth Johnson, 25; his father, Logan McQueary, 27; and Tammi Smith, 40, the Scottsdale mother who appeared desperate to adopt the baby who vanished in 2009.

As the trial entered Week 3, prosecutors presented texts, e-mails, voice messages and MySpace posts apparently showing that Smith and Johnson were in frequent contact before and after Johnson fled with Gabriel to San Antonio, the last place the baby was seen alive.

PHOENIX - It’s day 11 of the trial of Tammi Smith. She’s the woman accused of forgery and custodial interference in the case of missing baby Gabriel.

There were some dramatic new developments Monday. Prosecutors played recordings from when Tempe Police initially interviewed Tammi Smith as a person of interest in the baby's disappearance.

Woman in Baby Gabriel case hears her own words used against her

Posted: 6:38 PM

ABC15 (KNXV) - Phoenix, AZ






PHOENIX - Tammi Smith cried in court Monday as she listened to a two-hour taped interview between her and a Tempe police detective regarding the case of missing baby Gabriel.

At one point, lead detective Patricia Ramirez seemed to catch Smith in a lie when Ramirez asked Smith if she ever forged a court document in an attempt to adopt Gabriel Johnson, the baby boy who disappeared in December of 2009.

Valhall of The Hinky Meter started a thread for the Tammi Smith trial on Wednesday, 5-9-12, in anticipation of Tammi Smith's testimony.

Freckles did an outstanding job of providing info about the testimony in real time. Others also provided info.

Jack Smith was the first to testify for the Defense yesterday (Wed., 5-9-12) and late in the day Tammi Smith was called to the stand.

Here's the Link:

I posted the following at The Hinky Meter by Valhall:


Video with the article shows snippets of Tammi testifying. Also, a snippet of Tammi and Jack when they did an interview as this case unfolded. You can see what Tammi looked like back then compared to today! It is at about the :42 mark.

I bet it pizzed Tammi off that during the flight from Indianapolis, Elizabeth Johnson sat in First Class and Tammi was in coach. LMAO Tammi and Jack seem to think they are so much "above" Elizabeth and Logan McQueary.

PHOENIX (CBS5) -
New details emerged from Superior Court Thursday in the trial of Tammi Smith.

Smith is the would-be-adoptive mom accused of playing a role in the disappearance of baby Gabriel, the Valley toddler who's been missing since December 2009.

The Scottsdale woman took the witness stand in her own defense for the second day in a row.

"I wanted to believe the baby was alive," Smith told jurors. "I wanted to believe with all my heart that there's no way I held a baby that somebody killed."

KVNX - Phoenix, AZ

Scottsdale woman took the stand to defend herself for her involvement in the Baby Gabriel case.

Tammi Smith faced a line of questioning Thursday about the paperwork that helped put her on trial in the first place.

Smith is accused of lying on a court document in a plan to try and adopt Baby Gabriel without his father’s permission.

NOTICE:

Valhall is allowing the former Hinky members to use Ventrilo - Live Chat during the duration of the Tammi Smith trial.

Of course, as indicated prior to THM being shut down, Valhall expects us to follow the rules regarding Ventrilo - Live Chat and I know we will all do that. If not, chickenbutts aka EDRN, will set us straight.

If you need any help regarding Ventrilo, chickenbutts is tech savvy!

I think it is very nice of Valhall to allow us to use Ventrilo. Special thanks to you, Val! We really do appreciate it.

The Tammi Smith trial will resume testimony on Monday, 5-14-12, at 10:30 a.m. MST
(12:30 p.m. CDT/ 1:30 p.m. EDT)


Hope to see you there!

I will certainly try to be there Monday. I'm feeling not quite so lost without HM since many of you are here. I will miss Val very much though. I hope she joins us and posts her thoughts. It might be more enjoyable for her without the responsibility of the HM. I am thankful as well for the opportunity to use Ventrilo.

RE: Tammi Smith trial - Phoenix, AZ

Trial resumes: Monday, 5-14-12

Time: 10:30 MST (12:30 CDT/1:30 EDT)

Live Streams at: KPHO - Phoenix, AZ; AZFamily-3TV - Phoenix, AZ; CNN.comLive

Shortly before the trial starts, the stream will be made available and you can click on.

I will post Links to the AZ TV station Homepage sites. You can click on the trial from the Homepage. It will be at the top of the page below the Header

After the video box is available, we usually post the Direct link to the Live Stream.

Links to these sites (Homepage):

http://www.kpho.com/
KPHO Phoenix, AZ - Homepage

http://www.azfamily.com/
AZFamily - 3TV Phoenix, AZ - Homepage

http://live.cnn.com/
CNN.com - Live: Today's coverage
You can click on the box that will say: "Baby Gabriel . . . "
_______

Valhall is so kindly allowing us to use her Ventrilo - Live Chat (with Audio) as we have been. We can use it through the duration of the Tammi Smith trial.

I just checked and it works as before! You do not need a mic to type in the Live Chat. Only if you want to talk. You will be able to hear others talk whether you have a mic or not.

Valhall expects us to continue to follow her rules for the Ventrilo - Live Chat and especially not talking during trial testimony.

The Ventrilo is open and you can go there any time prior to trial.

I have a lot of things going on tomorrow but I hope to be on Ventrilo. See you there!

Hi everyone! I am going to try and catch as much of this as I can today; won't be able to do play by play, but will try to summarize here and there. Still grieving for Val, but good to see some old friends....

Hi, Freckles and Weezie! So glad to see you!

A very warm welcome to RC!

Freckles, I don't think I'd post minute by minute. The former Hinksters are spread out at different sites.

I know it is one heck of a job to do the minute by minute like you did at THM. Wow! You must type 150 wpm!

There are many that don't even know we have a thread here and I think it would be senseless to type all of that and perhaps no one would be checking here for updates.

Thank you so much for the awesome job you did at THM last week. I was just getting ready to click on and read your minute by minute because I missed some of the trial. The site just shut down.

Should be an interesting trial day today! If yaul are not going to be on Ventrilo please comment here during the trial. Like we did at THM!
