"Yes." 07:25 "And did you have any assistance in the home during that time after she went back to work? A nanny or a babysitter?" "Yeah, we had babysitters. We had a a babysitter who came probably 12 hours a week." 10:24 "After dealing with the physical pain of birth and in starting to heal, how was her demeanor and experience during that that maternity leave?" "I think it was fine at first. It was always when she had to go back to work. That's when she struggled." 14:50 "Sometimes she'd come with us with Callan, but oftentimes we did kind of like a divide and conquer. So she'd be home with Callan and be out with the older kids." "And what types of family activities did did you all do during those summer months?" "We went on a couple vacations. We went to the beach. We went out on our boat and went to friends' houses." 15:16 "During those those months, when you're going to the beach and out on the boat and in visiting with friends, were there any signs of anxiety in the defendant during those months?" "I would say starting in September, yes, but in the previous months, not so much." 19:45 "Now, at some point in time after Callan was born, did you hire a nanny?" "Yes." 26:00 "We were walking downtown, and she said, "I think I'm going to start taking Zoloft. And did she tell you why she wanted to start taking Zoloft? She said, "I think it's really going to help with my anxiety and with going back to work. And did she tell you how she was going to go about getting Zoloft? " "Yeah, I, I asked her, "How are you going to get Zoloft? It's a prescription, and she said, "You know, usually just ask the doctor, and they'll give it to you." 28:44 "Yeah, she wasn't really improving. She just kind of seemed to be gradually becoming more, more in like a depressed state." 28:59 "It was just small things. I was planning a trip with Cora to San Francisco, and she was nervous about us going. And I remember we went to a Halloween event, and just leading up to it, I remember she was. It just kind of seemed like she didn't want to go for some reason." 30:31 "Did Lindsay tell you that she was advised to double the dose of the Zoloft? "She may have. I I don't remember." "Did that refresh your memory?" "Yeah." "And so, did Lindsay tell you that she was supposed to double the dose?" "I guess she did. Yeah." 40:13 "And so, looking in Exhibit Two, we have the the Zoloft that was prescribed..." 44:27 "Would it surprise you to know that she, at any given time, the most she was prescribed was three, but most of the time it was two medications that she was prescribed at any given time?" "It wouldn't be terribly surprising." 48:59 "She was in rough shape." "Rough shape?" "Yeah." "How so?" "She wasn't talking much. She had low energy. She was really depressed. I just remember when she showed up. My sister-in-law gave her a big hug." 53:57 "And when she told you she was suicidal, did you ask her if she had a plan on how to kill herself?" "Yes." "And what was her response?" "She said no." 56:54 "And she didn't describe that as hearing this external voice telling her to harm the kids. Correct?" "Correct." 58:00 "And how many times did she tell you this that she had thoughts of harming the kids?" "A couple times." "And was that a couple times over the course of a night or two in December?" "Yeah." 01:09:12 "And while you were there with her, did she, did Lindsay talk to you about the treatment that she was receiving at McLean Hospital?" "She told me about her experience. It didn't really seem like she was getting any treatment." 01:11:50 "Were you aware, or did Lindsay tell you that she then asked the doctors to discharge her on January 5 because she wanted to to go home and get ready for the party?" "I wasn't aware of Lindsay asking the doctors to be discharged." 01:37:47 "And you felt comfortable leaving Callan and Dawson home with her that day?" "Yeah." "And why is that?" "She seemed to be doing a lot better." "In what ways did she seem to be doing better?" "Her mood seemed better. Her, she was more active, and she was able to she was able to partake in more things." fnFGzSTkQIq vrODwFWkmRz KHmCOojAcIZ ivR7EdoDLTA
