She had to come up with something and this is what her and her lawyer, Mark O'Mara, decided would be her defense. There were never any claims of abuse until then. NEVER!

On that day she and her attorney, the shameful Mark O'Mara helda sham of a press conference where she reversed hr entire story and then and.only then started with the abuse defense. I knew Michele, Michele was not the type of woman to get abused.<br />I was intimately involved with this case. I was involved in the year or so leading up to the trial and sat in on evefy word of testimony. Michele never showed one moment of remorse, if anything she and her family gave a smug sense of satisfaction that they seemed to be getting away with it.<br />A couple of very brave girls that worked with Michele gave testimony that helped seal up the prosicutions case.<br />All in all, it was better than nothing but the sentences were.just slap on the wrists.
