When the kids were "describing" [reciding] Abraham's garbage, they were parroting in unison--names always in the same order--it was so fricking obviously a script.

When they were interviewed by the police, and started relaxing, they not only expressed emotion and opinion for the first time [instead of looking nervously at Abe's damn camera and big meaty hand waiting to swoop in and "correct" their camera position], they also started talking about regular kids' stuff as well. Which grandma cooked the favorite pancakes, where they liked to travel, and some pretty strong feelings about Abe ("I hate him," said Gabriel).

Night and day, and any juror watching--were there ever to be one--will see the difference.

Abe is the abuser. Who knows, maybe he has friends who join in (why else take naked videos of the children on his iPhone), but Abe is not a good guy in this case.

Those kids need to be kept AWAY from him. The only reason the kids went along with his scheme is because he threw them against walls, hit them so hard their ears bled, refused to let Ella feed them warm food, and told Alisa he'd bury her in a field in Morocco unless she agreed to start spouting his shite.
