She is shaking so hard! Reminds me a bit of her sister.

I missed what was said about inmates. Can someone fill me in please?

Afraid to be on camera and names public

For some reason I can not post without jumping off anothers post.
This poor girl looks so frightened and nervous.

How much do you want to bet that the defense will bring up that Vanessa is the natural mother of Ada and is not raising her as well as her drug abuse history?

Hope the State will introduce any issues and take the sting away from the defense.

This family is so broken and destroyed at the hands of this :censored:

She looks like she is going to completely shatter. Poor thing

 

[CarolinaMoon]

Of their 4 biological children, 3 have been shown to be severly damaged mentally. Rachel, Damien, Vanessa. Alexis seems to be the only one who held herself together through life. One has to wonder about the "perfect" family. I know parents aren't always to blame, but I have to wonder what went on in that home...

I think Damian was fine until the death of his mother? It's said the death of his mother shattered him

Vanessa appears to look the most like Michele or is it just me?

 

[scorekeeper]

got a phone call.....sorry

back to testimony

Vanessa was on the nanny committee
she met Jilian
called Alexis
asked if name Gypsy
V said no....nothing to worry about
said not to worry about her dad being with her because Jilian was nothing like her mom

 

[Leilei]

I just want to hug her... omg these poor kids

I wouldn't say they were mentally damaged but emotionally crippled by their father and what he did. The two girls I have seen on the stand bth remind me of a teenager stuck in their late teens emotionally. I imagine the son had similar problems and took his life.

You did it Vanessa, good job hon

Still having to jump off posts.

This girl says she had the perfect family. She adored her mom. Must of been a heck of a shock to find out her father is less than perfect.
She seems very smart, and well adjusted in spite of the unfortunate circumstances. I noticed she looked a little disgusted when she had to point out her father.

To hide no tears maybe.

Gypsy did nothing for them except make spaghetti according to this young lady. Not exactly what Gypsy stated yesterday.

 

[scorekeeper]
