Fittuy Ric
: Tm sorry—she said yes when you asked Michael if he had
spoken to his wife?
: He said yes. And that she was still reluctant to talk to me. I
suggested to him that perhaps she could talk to me briefly
just so that she hears what I have to say. And he could listen
and remain on the phone, and she could stop at any time she

when she did get on the phone, and here’s what she told me.
She said she had grown up with [REDACTED]. That they

her lawyers were setting up for battered women, and a third
of it to the lawyers.
She then told me that they were trying to get ABC News
to interview [REDACTED] so as to give her credibility in
order to pressure the billionaire from Columbus, Ohio, into
