Latisha lied about her stepfather dying, the prosecution says, so she could actually buy some time to get rid of Gannon's body. The next lie came when Stout claimed she had been in touch with a high-profile attorney, who knows a thing or two about representing a woman in a high-profile case accused of killing a child. It was Casey Anthony's former lead attorney. I am, I'm not a bad person. I'm innocent. I agreed to even take a lie detector test for you. Well, that's, I mean, that's not for me. I don't have, I'm not going to give you a

Starting point is 00:01:21 light detector test. Well, I mean, it's not, it's not permissible, of course, because it's not. I said For you to believe me. But who are you, have you talked to them about this lie detector test, or you just told me about it? I got recalled from big-time attorneys. I got who's Baez law firm willing to come and make me. That's how much they know who is screwed up. Do you know who the Baez law firm is? You know I don't pay attention to that shit.

Starting point is 00:01:49 Do you know who they represented? No, tell me. A lot of big-time names. and they're and like people magazine people are like kids but they're not that the way that things are going and it's not the direction of my team and so if you don't want to be on my team to be like against them talking everything then these people will put it out there and joining me is Jose Baez the one and only who was referenced in that piece of audio that you just heard where Letitia stout talked about him contacting her about

Starting point is 00:02:24 representing him. Jose Baez, welcome to Sidebar. Thanks for coming on. Have you ever been in touch with Letitia Stout? I thought I had addressed this, I think about a year ago when it first came out in the news, but no. The answer is no. And I usually don't comment. I would say about 95% of the time, I would never comment as to as to whether someone reached out to our office because much of that is covered within the attorney crime privilege, but no, we don't have, we've never had any conversations with her. We never entertained representing her. I really don't know what this is all about. I'm a little bit disappointed that it's being brought up in a courtroom. I don't think it has any place in a courtroom as to when an accused person is seeking counsel. So I think it's

Starting point is 00:03:18 highly inappropriate on both sides, whether, you know, perhaps the defense objected to it coming in or it should have been redacted from whatever audios were played. But I think it's, you know, it's quite unfortunate. It's interesting you bring that up. And I will say this because if you listen to the audio clip in which she references your name and says that the Baez law firm has called her about representing her. She talks about her willingness to take a lie detector test. And she says they're not permissible in court. I think she misunderstands the verbiage, which she's correct, but they're not admissible in court. So it's interesting that she would even be allowed to talk about a lie detector test. Obviously, she can talk about whatever she wants on a recorded

Starting point is 00:03:58 phone call with her husband. But it's interesting that that would even be allowed in the courtroom. Yes. I mean, again, even the mentioning of polygraph tests, first of all, we would never call someone to offer out our representation. That's highly unethical and it's not something that my firm participates in. So I can tell you this. We have a full caseload and that was not a case that I was even on my radar. I'm not even familiar with the case, to be honestly. I know it's probably a murder case. That's about the extent of it. And I remember there was some issue with her traveling to Florida. But that's the extent of what I know about that case. And we certainly never called her. And I think it's, again, I think it's highly inappropriate to talk about polygraphs or lawyers

Starting point is 00:04:53 in a case. I don't know what that proves or disproves in a murder case, period. So I think it's quite unfortunate that this is going on. Yeah. I think it's probably all about her telling these multiple stories, that's been a theme throughout this case, is that she told multiple stories about what happened to her stepson. She's now using an insanity defense, so it's an affirmative defense, meaning you basically admit you did it, but you're saying you didn't know right from wrong at the time. Yeah, maybe it's part of her defense that she's insane. You can binge all episodes of this long crime series ad free right now on Wondery Plus.
