I never got credentials to the Maxwell trial because I did not qualify. I had to hire a line sitter to come about 2 am to save me a spot until I got there at 7. Then had to wait from 7-8:30 am outside the courthouse until my feet were numb. I did this most days. (More)
I don’t like to complain because victims had to wait in line too — and they deserved to be in there more than anyone. Yes, I tried to give my seat on the last day of trial to a victim but it was denied. More
I was almost thrown out of the courtroom when I tried to ask the court administrator why there was no seat for the victim. He screamed at me, and at the victim. He than snarked “now go write a story about that!” More

BREAKING: GUILTY on five of six counts including sex trafficking of a minor which is punishable by up to 40 years.

Is there material to do a whole show on this misogynistic topic? Uncontrollable mom anger? You have to advertise for subjects to interview? Come on @tamronhall -- use your platform for greater good.
Btw, the absolute best years of my life were the ones I spent home with my kids. The things we did together: parks, swimming lessons, arts and crafts, reading, watching Little Bear, playing ball, getting dirty!! Building lego towns…Those times are forever etched in my heart. ❤️
Btw, I worked nights — so it wasn’t easy on such little sleep. I wasn’t perfect. But I never felt uncontrollable rage. Mostly felt bliss at watching them discover the world.
