tour. let s bring in ted rowlands. he was in the courtroom watching it unfold. what happened, ted? well, wolf, it was not only emotional. it was incredibly engaging. she talked about what it was like to live a life with michael jackson, things like bearing his two eldest children. talked about watching a movie with him, to kill a mockingbird and calling gregory peck to talk about the movie, and watching his fall into addiction. it was absolutely mesmerizing. which side did she shep? aeg brought her on and she did one thing for them and that was to establish that michael jackson was using proposal for decades going back to his day for arnie cline who she worked for. for the jackson family attorneys, though, she humanized him more with these anecdotes and stories and jurors were riveted to that. so, i think in totality, she really helped both sides.
