The Chamberlains arrived at Darwin court
today for the first day of their trial
1:07:06
for the murder
of their baby daughter Azaria.
1:07:09
Lindy was wearing a pink and white frock
with white accessories.
1:07:12
Women are trying to work out when
the baby is due, and also the zodiac.
1:07:16
My guess is Scorpio.
1:07:19
(audience shouts out suggestions)
1:07:23
Your job in this case is
to administer justice according to law.
1:07:28
Not according to rumour,
not according to preconceived notions of.
1:07:33
You will hear much of this,
ladies and gentlemen,
1:07:36
for the simple reason that possibly
the publicity concerning this matter
1:07:40
has been without precedent
in our lifetime.
1:07:43
You see in this court a couple of cameras.
1:07:47
I dont want you to feel that youre
being directly telecast to Australia.
1:07:51
That is not so. They were put in
for the convenience of the press.
1:07:55
(cheering)
1:07:58
OK, who wants to be in it?
Tickets are a dollar apiece.
1:08:01
The one who gets
the birthday gets the lot.
1:08:03
Was there anything in Mrs Chamberlains
demeanour on her return to the barbecue
1:08:08
that indicated
anything abnormal had happened?
1:08:11
No. She seemed solely concerned
with feeding Aidan more food.
1:08:14
Was she covered in blood?
1:08:17
"(Sally)" No.
1:08:19
As to the babys cry,
did that cry appear to you to be cut off?
1:08:25
Going from experience
with other babies, yes.
1:08:29
It was a relatively uneventful day
1:08:32
as eyewitnesses to that tragic night
at Ayers Rock gave evidence.
1:08:36
The witnesses from across Australia
1:08:38
shed little light on the events that led up
to the disappearance of baby Azaria.
1:08:42
Everyone that was there
were her friends, her witnesses.
1:08:45
- They were all Adventists.
- They didnt know each other!
1:08:49
- It was a ritual killing!
- They planned it all, did they?
1:08:53
The buckle gave me very strongly
positive reactions for blood.
1:08:56
What about the spray pattern?
1:08:59
The pattern under the dash
