Hokey Polky. It was a quiet day in Lake Polk-be-gone....[More:]

She didn't really want to marry her therapist, with whom she'd been having an affair since she was 16. It was an abusive relationship. We learn this from an old friend -- who hasn't seen Susan Polk since 30 years ago, back when they were both patients of Polk's murdered husband.

And the woman who is taking care of Polk's youngest son? She testified for the defense today too, although it's not clear why: The two women hate each other, and Polk immediately had her declared a hostile witness. The witness recalled an incident where Susan Polk called from jail to berate her for buying the son the wrong DVD for Christmas.

And also, there's that little thing about the woman (whom Polk today accused of being an "attack dog") and her husband trying to "loot" Polk's estate. Oops!

In other news, Polk announced today that she'll be recalling her firecracker of a son, Eli (the one who was ejected from the courtroom during his testimony), to contradict the ersatz foster mother's claims.
Bless you, mudpuppie, for that regular dose of "Yes, there are People Waaaaaaaay Crazier than You!"

Wow, I am sooooo boring. I like this kind of weirdness injected into the throbbing vein of my daily life. Thanks mudpuppie.

Two more tidbits from The Chronicle, which was slow to post its update today:

Throughout the trial, Polk has cast aspersions on Briner, repeatedly asking for her to be ejected from the gallery and staring at her.

...

The defendant also asked Briner, "Do you just naturally embellish" and asked if she is familiar with Pinocchio, whose nose grows as the "tale gets taller." And then she asked if Briner simply made up accusations.

"No, I think that's what you do," Briner replied.
