Former Waco-area pastor trying to get access to grand jury testimony in preparation for his murder trial

"Matt Baker is curious to find out what his alleged former girlfriend told a McLennan County grand jury last month that led to his murder indictment in the April 2006 death of his wife, Kari." (read more)


also...

"Baker has acknowledged that he gave his wife’s cell phone to Bulls after she
died and that they racked up hundreds of hours of calls on the phone." (read more)


And from the many witnesses (like the commenter in the post below) looks like the two of them spent lots and lots of hours together in perso on top of all the hundreds of hours on the phone.

Vanessa - Powerful Testimony

Former Waco-area pastor indicted on murder charge in wife's death
Tommy Witherspoon - WacoTrib.com

Here is a snippet of today's article by Tommy about yesterday's testimony and indictment. Wow.
"On Wednesday, Long and Shafer escorted Bulls into the grand jury chambers, where she testified for about 30 minutes. That was after 54th State District Judge Matt Johnson granted her immunity from any legal repercussions that might come from her testimony, courthouse sources said."
Whatever that woman had to say must have been HUGE......DAMNING, in fact. For both of them. It's all confidential right now. But like all the other evidence, will come out soon. Thank God that Vanessa told what she knew. It's certainly time.
