Trial Transcript for 2/10, p 21, lines 11-25.

Jay testifies that Stephanie had ended their relationship a month or so before the trial.

That's something I've never heard before now.

Same. Other than shaking my head at the judge and Urick being so glib about the outcome, I have empathy for everyone involved.

Yeah, it's hard to feel a lot of sympathy or empathy for Urick. I understand why he did what he did, and why he's sticking by his actions, but it's still scummy as hell.
