Miss Chandler, you and your boyfriend, Mr. Hilliard are suing his sister and mother for defamation of character. You claim... (SOFTLY) Wow. JUDGE LAKE: ...they are spreading malicious rumors regarding the paternity of your son, Brandon Jr. You are seeking the results of a paternity test to prove that your baby is indeed Mr. Hilliard's son. <i> You are asking the court for damages in the amount of $500.</i> Is that correct? Yes, ma'am. JUDGE LAKE: Ms. Jackson, you and your mother state that you have evidence that will definitively show Brandon Jr.'s not your brother's child. Today, you are here to prove Miss Chandler's case against you is without merit, and that your brother has been manipulated and deceived. Now, usually I would start with the plaintiff, but I have got to ask the defendant in this situation... What do you know about Miss Chandler? Annie has always, like, gone to the race track, and she talks to guys on Facebook, texting guys and... She has a lock on her cell phone so that my brother can't see her phone. She's cheated on my brother. He stayed at my house with his kids, and... JUDGE LAKE: Now, what proof do you have of that? She's admitted it to me. No, I have not. You slept with that guy at your house. You left Brandon and the kids at my house... We were not together. We were not together. Okay. Okay. Who's this guy you're claiming that Miss Chandler slept with? A friend of a friend that I know of, and she started talking to him. And next thing I know, she tells me... ANN CHANDLER: No, we were talking, and it was after me and Brandon broke up that I started talking to him. And yes, I slept with him one time... But Brandon still had... While we were... While we were broken up, so that should not even be brought up. GINA JACKSON:<i> Well, Brandon still was thinking that</i> <i> you guys were getting back together.</i> CHANDLER: And you should not be talking about me sleeping around. (AUDIENCE GASP) Um, what I do with my life is my business. Three babies, three baby daddies. (AUDIENCE REACT) I've got three babies with the same man. Okay, we'll see if that's true, won't we? We will. Yep. JUDGE LAKE: Any other specifics for me? A guy that she lived next door to, she started dating him when my brother went to California. With his sick son. AUDIENCE: Oh! He broke up with me, and I dated him for three days. You seem really into what's going on with them. It's my little brother. I... What's it to you, really? I mean, he is his own man. He's... Might have made his own choices. It's my brother, you know. She is... From day one, I've seen that she's used him. She holds those kids over his head all the time. <i> She says, "Well, if you don't pay me this much, you're not seeing your kids."</i> CHANDLER: I worked since the first day that me and Brandon got together. I worked. I was independent. And what are you doing now? That's why... I'm working. Okay, that's why you're gonna quit your job and take his money every month, right? I got a job. That's why you and your mama decided that I was a bad person because I took... And I don't even know why you're over there talking in the first place. CHANDLER: I took Brandon away, and I'm independent, and I took care of him for four years. JACKSON: All you do is give in to her. CHANDLER:<i> For four years.</i> JACKSON: So, what you've done for four years, you gave in to her. Four years, I took care of him. No. Yeah, you do. What have you done to us? To our family? He chose his family, me and his kids. And your mother, your father, your brother... I'm sorry, my family have been more a family to him than you guys have. Excuse me? My family took him in whenever you guys turned your backs on him because he chose me. We didn't turn our back on him. He turned his back on us. When he chose me. Okay. Because of you. CHANDLER: He chose me and his kids... Ms. Hilliard, step to the podium if you'd like to add something to this. KATHY HILLIARD: Yes, ma'am. He chose me and his kids. What would you like to say, Ms. Hilliard? Do you feel like your son chose Miss Chandler over you? Yes, I do. (SOBBING) I feel that... (VOICE BREAKING) We were robbed. No. CHANDLER: You guys have always been able to come around. (SOBBING) You chose not to. You guys could come around, but you didn't want to. You're the one that told me, "I don't need a family. I have a family." CHANDLER: That's right. Yeah. 'Cause you turned your back on me. Attacking me, coming to my house to... Trying to, like, take my stepson. Then why don't you keep that tater-trap of yours shut? (AUDIENCE REACT) CHANDLER: I'm sorry, but whenever you got something to say to me, I'll come 10 times worse. (SIGHS) JUDGE LAKE: Do you feel like they've kept your grandchildren from you, too? KATHY: Yes, I do. CHANDLER: I have always asked you to come over <i>and see your grandkids.</i> <i>You said, "Those aren't my grandkids."</i> I haven't told you that. Okay, that's why you called him a... (INAUDIBLE). HILLIARD: You told me that. A punk. You told me that he'll never be a part of you, even if this test comes back that he's your grandson, right? I never said that. You and Gina. You and... Yes! JACKSON: Oh, no! BRANDON HILLIARD: Yeah. No, I told you that I would still be his aunt whether it was his or not. All right, let's have some order in the court, because I'm trying to understand this situation. It seems like everybody is very emotional, and this has hurt all of you. I don't want my kids to do without their grandparents or their family. Mr. Hilliard, I have to ask you. JACKSON: Okay. Did you ever have any doubts? I did. The reason why was, after the first time we had sex... I don't understand how can you, like, know that you're pregnant 24 hours after. CHANDLER: Okay, I know it's weird. Yeah, uh, tell me that. I know it's weird, but I knew I was pregnant. And I was right. I knew that it was a boy, and I knew both of my kids were... JUDGE LAKE: And so, 24 hours after you guys were together, you look at him and say, "Honey, I'm pregnant." Actually, it wasn't 24 hours. JACKSON: But how does somebody who's a virgin can sit here and say she knew she was pregnant? I was a virgin. Me and Brandon, our first time was February 9th, 2009. I know the date. Right after we had sex... I know. ...I knew I was pregnant. I don't know how. Mr. Hilliard, when she said that to you, what were you thinking? What the hell? (LAUGHTER) How's that possible? JUDGE LAKE: I asked you to be honest, and you were. Okay. How's that possible? CHANDLER: But I didn't tell him that I was pregnant for another two months. No, she waited... She waited until he was in California with his sick son to call and say that she is pregnant, mysteriously. I didn't want to tell him until I had proof. Why do they have so much suspicion about you? Their problem is, I took him away from them. I was a woman, and I took care of my man. That's so not my problem. You can have Brandon. Honestly, you can. I took care of him, and he did not need them no more. Let me clarify. You are his sister, right? JACKSON: Right. JUDGE LAKE: Okay, I wanna understand from you. Why is it so bad that he... Your brother is dating Miss Chandler? What is it? CHANDLER: 'Cause I'm a real woman. AUDIENCE: Oh! I know how to satisfy and take care of my man. I'm sorry you can't do it. That's why you just recently slept with his best friend, huh? Uh, first off, we were broken up. Second, whatever I do while we're broken up is none of your business, so you need to stay out of it. So, don't call me, telling me about guys you're sleeping with. CHANDLER: Why don't you pay attention to your own life? 'Cause it ain't as good as mine, I'm sorry. JUDGE LAKE: Uh, that was a mouthful. AUDIENCE: Oh! Mr. Hilliard? (LAUGHTER) Did you believe that she slept with your best friend? Oh, no. I did. No. Oh! Well, you won't have to wonder... That was only a couple of weeks ago. We were broken up. That was recently. JUDGE LAKE: You all do a lot of breaking up! When are you all together? CHANDLER: Because of them. Because of them. This drama split our family apart. You do a lot of drama. No, you and him broke up because of you. This drama split us apart. Not because of me. Because, four years of this... (INAUDIBLE). How can you be with somebody? (GAVEL POUNDING) Let's use proper language for the court. I know you're upset. But four years of this split us apart, because we can't even go a day... JACKSON: No. ...without arguing about them. I cannot be with him and be a part of them. They have hurt me way too much. JUDGE LAKE: I want you to look at me and tell me right now. CHANDLER: I tried. No, you ain't. Why do you think they dislike you so much? Because I'm a woman, and I took care of him. I took him away from them. It's how they feel. What, are you his mommy, too? Uh, I was a better... I could probably be a better mom than you would ever be. You don't sit up with him 24-7 while he was sick, recovering from the hospital that he was born at. Okay, I didn't give birth to him, but... That's part of being a mommy, dear. One thing she's not claiming to have done for him, right? (LAUGHTER) JUDGE LAKE: Okay, now... What is that a picture of? This is a picture of all three of our kids. JUDGE LAKE: Mmm-hmm. <i>And the reason I had my doubts</i> <i>is because Junior,</i> don't look like the other two, really. <i>These two look like me.</i> CHANDLER:<i> I'm sorry, all my babies look adorable.</i> The baby looks like you, the other two don't. Uh, first off, Bella, Junior and McKenzie all look like their dad. JUDGE LAKE:<i> You've expressed to the court that you do have</i> genuine doubt about at least one of your children. Yes. CHANDLER: And you see this. (PAPER RUSTLING) This is a picture of my son and Brandon whenever they were babies. JUDGE LAKE:<i> So, that's Brandon Sr. as a child, and there's Brandon Jr.</i> CHANDLER:<i> The same smile, the same nose.</i> <i>They have the same hairline...</i> JACKSON:<i> They look nothing alike.</i> CHANDLER:<i> They look alike.</i> JACKSON:<i> No.</i> Nope. They look alike. I'm sorry, but whenever the DNA test comes back, I'll show you. I'll laugh at you. Okay. 'Cause you all are fools for not claiming that little boy right there. JACKSON: I have claimed him. Really? Yes, I have! Then why are you here today? Then why are you here... To find out if you're a liar. Do you feel like Miss Chandler uses your grandkids as pawns? Yes, ma'am. Just to get whatever she needs out of Brandon. Give me specifics. Well, for one thing... I don't think so, 'cause there's nothing I need that I don't already have. I got three beautiful kids, and they love me, and I don't care what you say. KATHY: I know one thing... CHANDLER: I have never... ...and it's better to shut up before I give it to you. (AUDIENCE REACT) CHANDLER: I have never... I have asked you to be there for my kids. And you refused. You asked me nothing! Have you ever been there for a Christmas? The only thing you have... Have you ever been there for any holiday? Our mama always invited you... The only thing you asked me was to stay the hell out of your life. My mom had... After you called my son a little punk. (GAVEL POUNDING) Let's calm down. Let's calm down, ladies... (OVERLAPPING DIALOGUES) I can't understand any of you when all of you are talking. (AUDIENCE APPLAUDING) Now, Ms. Hilliard. Yes, ma'am. Is there anything, and you know, I have a little boy, and I know how a mother loves, loves, loves their sons. Is there any of this that... Where you feel that maybe you've lost him, and that's what really bothers you? Probably, mainly, yeah. The closeness we had... JUDGE LAKE: You were close? JACKSON: We were all close. We've always been close. I've always looked out for my little brother. (SOBBING) Every girlfriend Brandon's ever had, I've always tried to be friends with them. I've always tried to... Being friends with them... Can you please... ...hold on a minute? Shut up, you witch! (AUDIENCE WHOOPING) JUDGE LAKE: Miss Chandler... What, you troll? Sound familiar? Troll! Troll. JUDGE LAKE: Miss Chandler. Troll! Miss Chandler, give them a chance to speak. I don't look like a troll. You know, everything from your position is that you're a real woman and before you, he didn't even have a life! But I've got two women here that say they love him very much, and I need to hear from them. What was your relationship like? Very close. (MAN IN AUDIENCE COUGHS) We were very close. My kids were my life. I stayed at home until they were 16. Then I worked. Up till then, I'm all they knew. CHANDLER: I'm sorry, but I want better things for my kids in life. I'm not gonna stay here and live off of the state, and not go work. JUDGE LAKE: But Miss Chandler, you gotta give her this. She raised the man you're with now. So, you gotta give her some credit. I understand that, but, she... So, give her credit for that, at least. Her problem is... I give you credit for that, but her problem is that I work for my kids. JUDGE LAKE: Now, I wanna get to, uh, the defamation of character suit that you've brought as well, Miss Chandler, against Ms. Jackson and Ms. Hilliard, because you say that they're all around town... What comes around goes around, dearie. I have never said anything about you on Facebook. Really? No, but you have me. CHANDLER: I said it to your face. Is it true that you've been around town basically telling everyone that Miss Chandler's children are not your son's? CHANDLER: Admit it. Come on. I don't. CHANDLER: You told me... Ms. Jackson, you tell me the answer. So, have you been saying it? Yep, I have. I ain't said nothing to a little kid. Me and my friends have. Are you kidding me? KATHY: No, I'm not. Okay, Kathy, keep lying. While you were talking over me... Sorry. ...you missed the fact I got the information you wanted confirmed. Ms. Jackson just said that she was around town, talking about you and saying that... Yep. JUDGE LAKE: ...your kids were not by Mr. Hilliard. Mmm-hmm. I already knew that. HILLIARD: We all heard about what you were doing on Facebook. Somehow. So, what are your damages? Their family has turned their back on my kids. KATHY:<i> No, you turned our backs on your kids.</i> CHANDLER:<i> No.</i> HILLIARD: No. And it hurts me because I know who I am. And I wish that they know the real me, but they never tried to even get to know me. I tried. Gina, sitting there... I go into your house to see the kids... CHANDLER: Hush. Shut up. ...and get the police called on me? CHANDLER: Anyway... KATHY: Really? Your husband called the police on you 'cause I pushed you out my door. AUDIENCE: Oh! That's why. KATHY: When was this dream? Anyway, saying that you're my friend and telling me that, or telling people that my kids aren't Brandon's, and saying that I'm a whore. That's not a friend. I don't know what kind of friends you have. JUDGE LAKE: All right. But that's not a friend. Okay. JUDGE LAKE: I've heard enough. The court has two things to rule on. Uh, the defamation of character suit and also the DNA results. Um, I'm gonna start with the DNA results. Jerome, do you have the envelope? I do, Your Honor. Jerome, do you have the envelope? I do, Your Honor. (PAPER RUSTLING) CHANDLER: Just wait. When it comes out that my son's his, I'm gonna laugh in your face. And if it comes back that he is Brandon's, I'll personally apologize. There you go. (OVERLAPPING DIALOGUES) You want to shut up? Thank you, mom. (AUDIENCE APPLAUD) In the case of Brandon Jr., <i> Mr. Hilliard,</i> your wait is over. You are the father. CHANDLER: Thank you. Yes! Now apologize. I'm sorry. HILLIARD: Yes! Come on. No, apologize. You, too, Kathy. That's your grandson that you've been denying for four years. That's your baby. Yeah, now I want to see my baby. I have never kept him from you. Don't even try it. I have never... You know where I live. What do you feel? (SNIFFLES) I love that little boy either way. And I am personally sorry (SOBBING) for the hell I've put you both through. (BOTH SOBBING) Come on, come on. (LAUGHTER) KATHY: Come on for what? (LAUGHTER) I apologize, but you ain't touching me. See, that's why. I try being nice to you... Get away from me. (GRUNTS) AUDIENCE: Oh! JUDGE LAKE: Oh, that's nice. Ms. Cherpes, you claim you and your grandmother have been given no choice but to drag the defendant into court today because you say he moved away and abandoned your nine-month-old daughter Aryah. You believe that the DNA results will prove that he is her biological father and you demand he stops running from his responsibilities. Is that correct? Yes, Your Honor. Mr. McQueen, you claim that Ms. Cherpes' relationships with multiple other men is what drove you away and you believe that today's result will prove baby Aryah's father is another man. Is that correct? Yes, Your Honor. So, Ms. Cherpes, tell me, what has Mr. McQueen done for your daughter so far? He has bought her one box of diapers and like, two things of wipes. (AUDIENCE EXCLAIMS) So, she's eight months old, nine months old. Pretty much nothing? Yep. And I can see that that really hurts you. You're very angry about that. Yes. Tell the court. It's hard because, I don't know, I didn't ever see it like this. How did you see it? CHERPES: Like he had promised. JUDGE LAKE: And how was that? (SOBS) Definitely not like this. I had moved out to go live with him and we had actually planned on having her. And everything went downhill from there. Mr. McQueen. MCQUEEN: Yes, Your Honor. So, have you done anything for this baby besides just these diapers? Yes, Your Honor, I actually have. What have you done? The first day I met her, I brought her diapers. The third time she let me see Aryah, I also brought her diapers and wipes. And the last time that I was trying to see her before I did leave the state of Michigan, I dropped of clothes and boxes of diapers and three packs of wipes to her grandmother. So you don't believe Aryah is your biological child and you're saying you still stepped up anyway to the best of your ability? Yes, Your Honor. What is your position right now? You have doubts. Yes. Explain to the court. I have doubts because I didn't have her full attention. When we were together, she had... Was more interested in getting other men's attention than mine. So, tell me. What was the nature of your relationship? Were you committed? Were you boyfriend and girlfriend? Yes, we were committed. Yes. So, you were boyfriend and girlfriend in a committed relationship. MCQUEEN: Yes. You were boyfriend and girlfriend, Ms. Cherpes? Yes. Mr. McQueen? Yes. On our porch, I asked you if you wanted this baby and that this baby was yours. And you just told me yes, that you wanted the baby and you wanted this family, and now, you're standing here. Explain yourself, please. How did it change? MCQUEEN: Yeah. It changed because I wanna know if it's mine or not. CHERPES: The only reason you're questioning me is because you were unfaithful. MCQUEEN: I was unfaithful, yes. And so, you caught him cheating on you. CHERPES: Yep. And is... How did this lead to the paternity question? I mean, if you say you were faithful, he cheated on you, that still has nothing to do with Aryah's paternity. It's because he doesn't trust himself, so he thought it was all right, so he assumes I thought it was okay to be cheating on him. So you're saying because he was out there doing the wrong thing, he thinks you were as well. Yep. While you were not. No. How did you find out he was cheating? I set him up. Not necessarily "set him up." I had told him I was going to my dad's for about four days. I had only went there for a few hours. And I told my dad that I just had this weird feeling and as soon as I pulled in the driveway, I just instantly knew. And he came to the window, looked out, and I told him to unlock my door. He had unlocked it but stood in front of the door to where I couldn't open it all the way, and he was like, "You're gonna be mad." And I played dumb. I heard her talking. So you open the door and someone was there. Yep. JUDGE LAKE: What happens from there? I asked him to make her leave and they were both smirking at me the whole time like it was a joke. And I had... I did not at all, Your Honor, think it was a joke. I had my three-year-old daughter with me, too. So I didn't want confrontation in front of her and I ended up kicking him out and took him off my lease the next day. Do you believe, at the end of the day, he thinks you're cheating because he's the one who's cheating? Yes. Mr. McQueen, is there truth to that? Are you just out there doing the wrong thing and you think she is, too? What evidence do you have that she's even cheating? I have heard numerous times and have seen her phone from the corner I view of walking by that she is getting attention of other men, she's getting money from other men while I'm working 12 hours a day, six days a week, trying to support our family. What did these messages say? I'm not too sure. I know she did lie to me, and actually, she did tell me she was going to her father's to do laundry and instead, I actually found out that she went to another man's house and spent the night. (AUDIENCE EXCLAIMS) Is that true, Ms. Cherpes? Yes. So you did. You went to another man's house and spent the night? Yeah, because he had brought a woman to our house. So I, to kind of avoid the fighting, I had left, yes. And so you find out he's cheating. Is this before or after you had this episode where you go to the house and there's another woman in the house with him? This was before. So before... It's been numerous occasions. It wasn't just once. Your Honor... There's been about three girls in my house, yes. (AUDIENCE EXCLAIMS) Now, at the point you realized you were pregnant, what happens? We were excited, actually. And then, about two weeks after I'd found out I was pregnant, that's when I caught him cheating on me. (AUDIENCE EXCLAIMS) JUDGE LAKE: Two weeks after? CHERPES: Yep. JUDGE LAKE: So you find out you're pregnant and you're supposedly a happy couple. CHERPES:<i> Yep.</i> <i> You're happy about the baby coming.</i> <i> He assures your mother he wants this child.</i> CHERPES:<i> Yep.</i> JUDGE LAKE:<i> And then, two weeks later, he's cheating.</i> CHERPES:<i> Yes.</i> I'm mad at Mr. McQueen because the responsibility is falling on me and her, my husband. It should be his responsibility for the baby, not ours. JUDGE LAKE: How is the responsibility falling on you? 'Cause she's... They're staying with us. I'm the one who cares for the baby when Mommy can't. She's been doing really good. But there's times she's one person, and she's by herself, so, you know, I've had to step up to the plate. I don't understand this. I guess I'm just... Older generation or something, but I don't understand how a father can do this to their child, 'cause I know she's his baby. She was so happy when she got pregnant because they had planned it, and he knows that. And then, now, he's doing this. WOMAN: Wow. Why? I mean, I don't understand it. So, Mr. McQueen, did you plan to have Aryah? Yes, we did plan on having Aryah. So, now she's here. What's the problem? The problem is that, when I was at work, she was doing what, I don't even know, talking to all these other men during all of this, and this was, you know, not okay with me, so... She was talking to men or she was sleeping with men? I don't know. I was working 12 hours a day, six days a week. It's all in his head. All of it. JUDGE LAKE: You say you planned this baby, you were excited for this baby. Two weeks later, you were making babies with somebody else. What is going on? That I didn't have her attention no more, and she was trying to get the attention of other men. How? How? She was texting other men, she was going to see other men, she was using me, like... Using you for what? Using me for a place... I didn't need to live with you. I was living with my dad. Yeah, and I took you out of there so you didn't have to put up with the bad situation. I could've stayed there. To what? Put her in a worse one? That was not the plan. It takes two to tango. (AUDIENCE APPLAUDS) All right. So, we've established that Mr. McQueen wasn't up to no good. But I wanna know about you. Were you getting back at him? Were you saying, "You know what, "I'll just talk to some other people "since he's on the phone and he's texting Jessica "and he's sleeping with women." No, I was talking to my... I have guy friends. I'm allowed to have friends. So you have guy friends. Yep. None of whom you've been intimate with? No. A week after I left my house, she moved her ex-boyfriend in, the one she was getting money with before. (AUDIENCE EXCLAIMS) A week after that, I heard she was sleeping with another man and then, three weeks after that, she chose another one. And if I was... Who, what are their names? Let's, I mean... If, you know, I was the child's father, then why did she refuse me to come to the delivery room because she had another man there. 'Cause you were arguing with me about her last name and I had informed you that I'm not arguing while I'm having our child. MCQUEEN: But yet, there was the same man that you were getting money from when you were living with me and we were together before Aryah was born. And he was there. Yeah, as a support system. I have friends. Mr. McQueen, is this other man named Glen Gerber? No, it is not, Your Honor. 'Cause this court has identified a man named Glen Gerber who Ms. Cherpes was intimate with. That would be the man she stayed the night with when she told me she was at her father's, doing laundry. (AUDIENCE EXCLAIMS) Is that true, Ms. Cherpes? Yes. So you told him you were at your father's house doing laundry, but really, you had spent the night with another man. Yep. That man is Mr. Gerber. Yes. And he's in our courtroom today. He's at court and I'd like to hear from him. Jerome. Will you please escort Mr. Gerber in? Yes. Go up to the witness stand right next to the judge. Thank you so much for joining us, Mr. Gerber. Yes, Your Honor. I'd like to ask you. Did you have a sexual relationship with Ms. Cherpes? At one point in time, yes. And so, how did you all meet? Online. And it quickly developed into a sexual relationship or... She was a single parent, I was a single parent. It was, kind of, just getting to know each other, to begin with. So, was it an intimate relationship? Yes. At one point, yes. At one point, it was. How often were you intimate? Not very often at all. Do you think there's a chance that you could be Aryah's biological father? I do not. I didn't see or hear much about the baby nothing's ever been said to me about being the dad until now. So, Mr. McQueen, you're saying that Mr. Gerber's testimony that he was also intimate with Ms. Cherpes further validates or fuels your doubt... Yes. ...as to what she was doing... Yes, Your Honor. ...while you were working. MCQUEEN: She also told me on Facebook that I was not her father and that said man that was giving her money and was at the delivery room, was her father. (AUDIENCE EXCLAIMS) Did you say that, Ms. Cherpes? Did you say someone else was baby Aryah's biological father? I may have agreed with him, yes. (AUDIENCE EXCLAIMS) What do you mean "agreed with him?" He made the assertion and you said that's true? He wasn't there anyway. I was doing it on my own, regardless of who was the dad. Your Honor, I asked her for a DNA test from day one. And she's refused me up until this point. CHERPES: I never know where you're at. So, Ms. Cherpes, tell the court. What has this been like, as a young woman raising this child on your own? CHERPES:<i> It's hard because she's not my only kid.</i> (AUDIENCE EXCLAIMS) JUDGE LAKE: How many children do you have? I have two children. I had my own house. I was living in the house that we had originally gotten together. And I struggled for the whole year to keep it. I was working 12-hour shifts, going to school, I was talking Aryah to school every day with me. And where were you at, Nate? MCQUEEN:<i> I was trying to get my life together so I can...</i> But why didn't you think of that before you wanted this baby, then? Why didn't that come into play first? I did. No. Yes, I did. Because she did not realize that I was working my... No, you didn't. Tail end off. Because why are you saying that now? You had the baby. You should've known ahead of time, to have gotten yourself together before you impregnated her. You're gonna dip it? Pay for it. (AUDIENCE APPLAUDS) I worked every day. Do you think your daughter's gonna care about you being gone and working on yourself or the time that you spend with her? I don't get to choose when I wanna be a mom. (AUDIENCE APPLAUDS) Mr. McQueen, Ms. Cherpes' statement is true. It's not a matter of convenience, when it works for you, when it doesn't work for you. You said to this court you planned this baby. And you do understand that it could be your biological child. MCQUEEN: Yes. Why not be more present? Because me and her don't get along and she's refused me... This isn't about us. Be an adult. This is for her... You refused me... ...not you and not me. ....numerous times, to even see her. You tried to make me choose between my other child and her when I know my other child is mine 100%. I just tried to take Aryah to you, to go see you, but I couldn't because your baby mama was there with your son. Like you can't... It's always about you. All right. There's only one thing to do at this point. Let's get the results. Jerome. (AUDIENCE APPLAUDS) These results were prepared by DNA Diagnostics and they read as follows. In the case of<i> Cherpes v. McQueen,</i> pertaining to whether Mr. Gerber or Mr. McQueen is the father of eight-month-old Aryah Cherpes, it has been determined by this court, the biological father is Mister... McQueen. CHERPES: See? (AUDIENCE APPLAUDS) You are the father, Mr. McQueen. Thank you, Your Honor. Where do we go from here? Back home and I'm there 100%, Your Honor. Thank you. Yes, I'm tired. JUDGE LAKE: I can tell she is just that. For eight months, she's had to fill in your shoes. And my husband's disabled and I'm taking care of my mother with Alzheimer's and then, I have the baby because he wouldn't step up and it's his child, and I knew it. Well, I'm sorry. Thank you. I really am. Thank you. So, now that we have the truth, let's do something about it. <i> Your blessing, and only blessing in this now,</i> is that at eight months, she really won't remember this. Yes. And you have to take that blessing now and run with it, meaning you gotta step in there, and you've got to make sure she understands that she has a father and you're there for her. Let's try to clear the slate now.
