Mrs. Patricia St. George, would you state for the court
0:05
the grounds on which you are petitioning for divorce? Adultery. The court may well wonder why
0:15
After 22 years of seemingly happy and profitable marriage, you're bringing this petition now
0:22
May I ask what's changed? In my marriage, nothing. My husband has been a philanderer since the day we met
0:29
and his infidelity continued before the wedding, after it, and I can only imagine to this very day
0:36
Objection, Your Honor. Surely not to this very day. So why now, Mrs. St. George
0:46
Because I've had enough, finally, of being disregarded and lied to. I also have two daughters
0:55
and I believe standing up to their father sends a message to my girls
1:00
that they should never allow any man to undervalue them the way their father has me
1:08
And Mr. Summers, I'm loathe to sound grand, but I am also here today for every woman in America
1:14
who questions whether she has the strength to break free
