So I probably can't get a summary up until tomorrow maybe (which works because there's a 10 day break god why).

But the quick version is just that this was a complete disaster. But it kind of had to be. She made up all of these absolutely insane, monstrous stories in the UK trial, so she needed to keep with them here, because she never expected she'd actually have to speak about them again. She told stories about some of the most vile and sick abuse I've ever heard, and she never gets medical treatment and she shows pictures where she says her nose was broken and her nose is fine the next day, or she shows pictures after a violent fight of the ground and damage and goes "Now if you can believe it, this is actually a lot more cleaned up but it was so much worse". She starts every insane lie she's about to tell with "If you can believe it" or "I know it sounds crazy." And she's just like, excited to tell these details about horrific assault.

But she can't just be like "Yeah, listen, we were fucked up and we both threw blows at each other, but he started it most of the time and I got hit." Because she didn't say that in the UK trial and they'll just shred her on it if it wasn't accurate. But she's just completely course corrected to "I am a saint and the perfect wife and I just took all of this horrific abuse and I swear the only time I hit him ever was to protect my sister." I don't know how anyone can possibly believe this. I don't know what the jury is thinking, but I think they have to smell the bullshit too. And if they don't yet, the cross is going to massacre any credibility she may have.
