We promised, Daddy.

It's the truth.

We don't want to go back there.

Did you ever see John Grossman mistreat your children?

Did you ever see your parents mistreat your children?

Did you coach your children to lie about the child abuse allegations?

I would never do that.

Never.

In order to gain the upper hand, it's my belief

that Ronald Samuels would call and make these child abuse accusations.

They were investigated by the police in Minnesota.

They were investigated by the police in Boca Raton.

They were found to be unfounded.

The claims of child abuse were rejected by a Florida judge, and Heather was awarded permanent custody of the children.

While investigators were convinced Samuels was the mastermind behind the attempted murders, they felt they just didn't have enough evidence to bring a case against him.

The key was getting the alleged co-conspirators to cooperate.

But at what cost?

It wasn't an easy decision for anybody.

But the decision was made, and it was the right decision.

The decision was to make a controversial and highly unusual deal.
