Senator Chris Murphy

I was like, I am a fighter. Yes, I am a fighter. Ksenia is the opposite. Ksenia has got a soft heart, sweet heart, cries easily. She doesn't have a bad bone in her body. So when I heard that, it broke my heart.

Yeah, well, you're taking me back now. The last, like, I'll tell you the process to get that lawyer was, it was very, very difficult because first of all, I'm dealing with the mother and father, which are in Russia, and they want to be hands-on with a lawyer. They want to be able to see the lawyer in person. And they barely speak English. So I need a Russian lawyer.

So the process started to get a lawyer. And I will tell you, every lawyer turned us down because they said it's too risky. They said you're fighting Russia, like we can lose our license. And eventually, we got all of the lawyers we have right now, or had, and met the parents. The parents loved him. I didn't like him at all. I just didn't like him. I said, we can do better.

And the parents were persistent on, no, we like this lawyer. We'll go with him. Anyway, go with the lawyer. Long story short, the lawyer ended up telling Kassadin to plead guilty. Now, I was very upset about that. I was like, why would you do that? And he said, look, she's going to get 20 years in prison. I can get that down to five years if she pleads guilty.

I was like, I don't like this, but the parents liked the idea. So the lawyer got her to plead guilty. And guess what? She got the minimum of 12. It didn't work. But it painted this picture of Ksenia now acknowledging what she did. And it made me very, very upset. This lawyer, as the time progressed in this whole battle, we realized this lawyer is like a puppet to the KGB. Just a puppet.

He's doing everything they want. He made Ksenia sign letters Ksenia was never supposed to sign. She signed it because the lawyer said, no, everything is going to be good.
