And by the way, the defense doesn't dispute this relationship at all from what we've heard so far.

Brendan and Christine also had a young daughter.

Her name is Valerie.

And Juliana said Brendan wanted out of this marriage.

Now, they weren't together at first.

This was something that evolved over time.

She had, from what she testified to, had spent about a year in the house and then renewed for another year in her program.

But he felt a divorce was not an option.

He wanted full custody of his daughter, and Juliana said money was also involved and part of the issue.

So the alleged catfishing scheme comes about using this website called FetLife, as in fetishes.

And they would take Christine's laptop.

and phone to message the people while Christine was in the house.

This is an incredibly important point because Christine being inside of the house, according to Juliana, was the reason why they would message these other men at home and from her laptop because Brendan told her if there's some sort of investigation, it would always look like the messages were coming from Christine, coming from her phone, coming from her computer.

And according to Juliana, Brendan was looking for someone who would be aggressive and would bring restraints and also a knife to this meeting at the house.

She said they were also looking for someone to agree to come to the house before ever meeting Christine in public.

So then who's doing the messaging to all of these men?

Are both of them?

When the defense asked Juliana who was doing this, there were times when she couldn't remember who was doing the messaging, but she did say it was both of them at different times on different days.

And we see the messages in the court presented to the gallery on the Telegram app between Joe and Christine's account.

And that account used an alias as well, Anastasia.
