Davis said he couldn’t remember the exact date, but knew the conversation occurred after a tabloid story exposing Edwards’ affair.

With Davis sitting inches away, the aide testified, Edwards and Baron discussed Hunter.

Davis recalled that Baron told Edwards that: "The press wasn’t going to find Ms. Hunter because of the way he was moving her around so much."

Davis, who by then knew the stories about the affair and pregnancy were true, said he told Baron to stop talking.

"I didn’t want to be aware of this," Davis testified.
