Catching Up

Some of us are in Florida on an extended vacation -- anyone who has ever visited Ottawa in January will understand why! -- and others are busy having babies and waiting to hear if they will have to testify at the Inquiry.

Friday before last, David and his new wife Cristina were thrilled to announce the birth of their first child, a boy named Robert David. It's wonderful that despite his incarceration for nearly one quarter of a century, David is now able to have a semblance of a normal life.

No word as of yet as to whether or not David will be required to testify in person at the hearing. There should be some determination about that soon.

His lawyer has requested that Milgaard be able to answer questions in writing or via a tape recorder. Journalists were concerned yesterday about David's mental health during any form of testimony since he tried to kill himself four times when he was in prison (I thought that it was three times but I guess that I was wrong.) We'll see what the outcome is. It's been a long time coming!
