And they made the argument over and over again that this wasn't Munchausen by proxy. This was CRPS, as though those two things are mutually exclusive. And of course, there's also the fact that they don't seem to believe that Munchausen by proxy is even real. So we had talked about this Dober motion earlier on, and here is Jonathan breaking that down with us.

It's really hard not to feel Beata's presence looming in this courtroom. It's the central question that most people are duking it out about online. You know, was she a martyr or a monster? Technically, of course, it doesn't matter for these specific counts, but also it deeply does.

Depending on which side of the dichotomy you fall, you either think Johns Hopkins was being rightfully protective of Maya or senselessly cruel to Beata. And this also colors the view of Beata's death, Was she an innocent mom who believed that ending her own life might save her daughter? Or was she an abuser who feared that her lies were about to be exposed?

We've heard snippets of her throughout the trial, from doctor's notes, from recordings, and from the notes she left behind upon her death. But this week, we got a much more intimate and disturbing look into Beata's mind via a number of emails that she had written to herself. These were drafts, they believe, of the blog that she maintained that was written in Maya's voice.

These letters chronicle the ketamine coma that Maya underwent in November of 2015, which the plaintiff has taken great pains to paint as not so terribly serious of a procedure. So we are going to have my producer, Tina, read us a bit from these letters. This is from the first batch.

So this is the procedure that the plaintiff has painted as being of no real risk to Maya. And this business about the child being the youngest, most rare, most unique pediatric case of something to have ever existed, this is a huge red flag. There are so many parallels in this to the Mary Welch case, which was the case, if you'll remember, that we discussed in season one.

So in this, her son had allegedly this extremely rare condition. In his case, it was something called normal pressure hydrocephalus, which is a condition where fluid builds up on the brain. And Mary also talked to friends about how the medical community was, quote, learning so much from his case.
