Yesterday, I called the McDonnell trial a circus. Now, just a day into the proceedings, it’s become a soap opera:
New from #McDonnell trial: Maureen's lawyer said she had a "crush" on Jonnie Williams, who filled a "void" in her life & "broken" marriage.

"The very foundation of their marriage was broken long before" Jonnie Williams showed up, -Maureen #McDonnell's lawyer in opening statement

The made for TV movie is already writing itself.
However, there are likely strategic reasons for making such an admission. It puts a whole new spin on what went on with Jonnie Williams.
