he would do something so awful no evidence of any Financial reason in fact all of her assets had been placed
00:00:37
into trust for their three children you will not have any evidence of another woman in Fred's

enforcement and he walks them through the events as he describes them there's no
00:02:29
evidence that lesie Mueller was rendered incapacitated lesie Mueller did not have
