Chapter 15 - LINDA’S TESTIMONYLinda testified during property and custody proceedings.
Amanda asked:
“Did you intend Rachel to become angry Sunday?”
“Yes.”
“Did Jason know?”
“Yes.”
“Did you throw the towel expecting reaction?”
Linda hesitated.
Then:
“Yes.”
“Why?”
“To show people.”
“Show what?”
“What she is like.”
Amanda looked toward judge.
“Had Rachel ever physically attacked you before?”
“No.”
“Threatened you?”
“No.”
“Jason?”
“No.”
“So you manufactured the first incident to prove a pattern that did not exist?”
Linda's attorney objected to characterization.
Fair.
Still, answer stood.
Linda cried.
“I thought she would take Owen away.”
“Did Rachel ever say that?”
“No.”
“Jason?”
“He was afraid.”
