It appears that the "ballerina" is absolutely insane and diabolical.
-
So basically she had him reverse his vasectomy get pregnant. Try to deny him any rights and clean him out with support and alimony.
-
Ashley playing the victim but in control throughout their relationship. SMH
-
The defendant comes across very controlling and manipulative. Not likable
-
The constant interruptions of the defense lawyer is very annoying! He’s trying to break the rhythm of this great witness.
-
Guilty, she got her mum to take daughter to park then shoots Doug , toxic women n Crocodile tears
-
That defense attorney must be afraid he's not ever going to talk. Jeez
-
Ballerina really going for the "woe is me" look. Yesterday, she looked like an Amish woman.
-
I keep saying they need to get a DNA done on the child. I mean, she paid for him to undo his vasectomy, then she was pregnant within 3 months. Now, the child was born early, and she is determined for him not to see the child. His other daughter should ask for DNA to see if it's her half-sister, and if the DNA doesn't match, that's more to prove why she was wanting to get away from him but wanted his money for the child.
-
That must have been one of Doug’s best moments to see his baby girl at 6 months 🥹🙏
-
There is a special place for that defense lawyer! He is going to get her a guilty verdict ....
-
Hey lawyer is going to get her convicted.
-
It seems clear to me that Ashley is insane
-
This lady tried to do anything she could to keep him away from his child and when she thought the court was going to give him parenting time she killed him
-
Ashley looks rough, sleepless nights, tears, anxiety. I bet she’s scared to go to prison
-
She couldn’t get him out of the babies life legally so she killed him. WOW
-
The lawyer is the best money Doug ever spent!!!
-
Her attorney needs to just sit there
-
i cannot stand a parent that tries to not share their child w/ the other parent. it’s disgusting!! LOVE YOUR CHILD MORE THAN YOU HATE YOUR EX!! do what’s best for your CHILD!! did some ppl skip kindergarten !?! SHARE!!!
