"It's time that somebody stand up for her" might just be one of the more interesting quotes from the Raye Dawn trial yet. Only because when said in context of anything having to do with Kelsey Briggs- most people would assume that the "her" is Kelsey. Oddly enough, in this quote it isn't. Rather the defense counsel said it about Raye Dawn during closing arguments. A defense attorney for a woman charged with child abuse in the death of her 2-year-old daughter urged jurors Wednesday to find her not guilty, arguing that prosecutors had failed to prove their case.
"It's time that somebody stand up for her," defense attorney Steve Huddleston said during closing arguments in the child-abuse trial of Raye Dawn Smith. "She has been through enough. It is time to stop it."
The second most interesting statement, again on Raye Dawn Smith: ""Does that look like a woman who would allow someone to abuse her child," Huddleston said". Seriously, pretending that we can tell an abuser by their "looks" is so 1980's.
