Mr. Fields, you state
that you're here for the sake of
your one-year-old son. Yes, Your Honor. You claim the defendant
has lied to you, cheated on you and
even told you herself that you are
not the child's father. Yes. Yes, Your Honor. Ms. Nichelson,
you deny being unfaithful, and say Mr. Fields
is the one who has cheated and you can prove it. Yes, Your Honor. Furthermore, you say you're furious you have to
prove paternity to him. Yes, Your Honor. Now, Mr. Fields, what exactly
has Ms. Nichelson done to make you
doubt paternity? Well, Your Honor,
Sharice is a liar. The reason why I'm saying
this is because Sharice gets off of work
at 5:00 in the morning and she doesn't
come home until 9:00. Not to mention that I found numerous amount
of panties in her vehicle. SHARICE: Excuse me... Along... Along with an overnight bag. Your Honor... If you have an overnight bag,
and we live together, why do you have
an overnight bag, Sharice? Excuse me.
Your Honor, Tyrel's the one
who's a liar. He's the one
who's the cheater. He sends me videos, um, pictures...
I've seen text messages, Facebook, Twitter,
Instagram, all of that... There's proof
that he's cheating. I also have a video... Okay, Your Honor, and I've
told her everything. I've told her
even before I've
done such a thing. Excuse me.
This relationship
is at rock bottom. You're a liar,
you're a cheater. I have proof
that you're
doing so, so, I mean... What proof
do you have? I have a video
showing that he's having sexual conduct
with this lady. Your Honor... (AUDIENCE GASPING) May I show you? Uh, you submitted this
video to the court? SHARICE: Yes. I had to black out
some things,
of course, but... Your Honor, I'm going
to tell you how much of a dishonest
person she is. SHARICE: Excuse me. He's in a public bathroom... JUDGE LAKE: All right,
first I'd like to
see her evidence. You've submitted
a video to the court. Yes. Let's take a look
at that evidence. AUDIENCE: Wow! SHARICE: But I'm the one
who's cheating. TYREL: Your Honor... SHARICE: But I'm the one
who's cheating. That's a video
you got from where? He sent it to my phone
about two weeks ago. JUDGE LAKE: He sent it
to your phone? About two weeks ago,
Your Honor. Why would you send
that video
to her phone? Your Honor,
I did it
out of anger and I told her that I was
gonna cheat because
she said she was gonna cheat. Your Honor,
just this morning, before we got here,
hours ago, she told me that
she slept with another man and she took my son
to go see him last week. And that's actually his dad. Excuse me, Your Honor. I did not see... I did not say that.
I did not say that
this morning. What I said to him was, "You keep telling me that,
'He's not your son,
he's not your son', <i> "so, yeah, I'm gonna let
you believe that
he's not your son."</i> Your Honor, she told me
that she was going to fail
the lie detector test and she slept
with another man. SHARICE: I never
told you that. I never told you
that, Tyrel. So, listen,
this relationship obviously isn't
going very well. No. Obviously not. Neither one of you
trusts the other, but I need you
to take me back during the
window of conception so I can understand what
exactly is going on and why is there
an issue surrounding
this child's paternity? Mr. Fields,
why are you doubtful? The reason why I'm
saying this is because I have a calendar
to show the conception of his time,
and the conception that
I caught her cheating. You believe the
conception dates are off? Yes. Now, to be clear,
you all were in a committed
relationship during this time? Correct. So you didn't think she was
having sex with anyone else but she was? Yes. And you know that? Yes. How do you know that? Her own cousin even told me
she was having sex
with another dude and that dude
called her phone. Excuse me,
was my cousin there to actually see
that we were having sex? Your Honor, her cousin
knew the guy's name, the car he drove
and everything. He doesn't drive a car,
he catches the bus,
so that's already a lie. So the guy he's
talking about,
you know who that guy is? Yeah, he's my co-worker. Were you in a
sexual relationship with him? No, I was not. Your Honor... Your Honor, one day
I went up to her job, the dude that I believe is
that child's father, he did a sexual
gesture to her in front of my face and she
pretended like
she didn't even see it. That's the same dude that
called her phone the same night I went to go
pick her up
from her house. Your Honor, how am I supposed
to see a gesture if it's behind me? He said
he seen it... If my eyes are
forward-looking
at you how can I see what's going on
behind my back? So you never
saw this gesture? I never saw. JUDGE LAKE: What kind of
gesture was it, Mr. Fields? He did a thrusting
sex gesture. JUDGE LAKE: So he was
implying that he was having sex
with her? Yes, and also, when I spoke
to him on the phone, he said blatantly that she was
on his top. And he was saying
that she wouldn't
leave him alone. Excuse me... Every time I came
into work, this
gentleman spoke to me. We're co-workers,
why aren't we able
to speak to one another? You are just insecure
of yourself. Your Honor... Obviously, that's what
the video just showed. I'm not the one who's
cheating. It's you. Your Honor, if you're
in a committed relationship, why is this dude calling
your phone at 11:00 at night? It was not 11:00 at night. So, if you are in a
committed relationship, why do you have
videos of women twerking on you? (AUDIENCE CLAPPING) I just do it. I just
do it, Your Honor. And you know
what she says? She says, "Go ahead and do it.
I want to see you do it. "Send me the video
after you're done." Excuse me, why would
I want my boyfriend
to cheat on me? What sense...
What female wants that? Does it make sense? It doesn't. Your Honor, she says... Who wants to be
cheated on? She says that out her mouth, along with her sister,
saying that she's a cheater and that...
That boy is not mine. (AUDIENCE GROANING) SHARICE: Your Honor... So, now, her family
member told you? That's correct.
Two family members. Her cousin and her sister
said that that baby's
not mine. (AUDIENCE GROANING) Your Honor, what
I want to know is, how are you listening
to other people when they're not even
the ones who were laying... Were with me while
I was having sex? (AUDIENCE APPLAUDING) You... You've... I've been with
you since I was 16. Four years ago, Tyrel. Four years! This man
took my virginity. I've just been with him
all my life, really. He's all I know. (CRYING) And for him to
deny my kid, that hurts. It hurts so much. (CRYING) It really does. It hurts so much and
it's just crazy. SHARICE: (CRYING) I feel like, he believes that it's his son, but something's telling him
to not believe it, because his insecurities are
telling him not to believe it. Why... Well, Sharice, why do I not believe it? Because of yourself. You're insecure. Why am I insecure? You told me that you were
the same way
with your ex-girlfriend. Why am I insecure? You're insecure because
you think
that I'm cheating when you're the one
who's doing it
in reality. So you believe
you do nothing
to make me believe that? I don't do anything. Okay. What proof do you have? Explain to me... I've clearly got proof of you. Look at him,
he looks
just like you. Explain the hickeys
on your neck and the hickeys on your chest. I never had
a hickey on my neck.
Never. You don't even
suck on my neck. But, yet,
I got a hickey? I don't like it,
number one. Your Honor... Excuse me. Your Honor,
look at the furry head. Her coworker... <i> Same hairline.</i> <i> One of her coworkers</i> told me she was
giving a man
oral sex in a back hallway
at her job. SHARICE: Your Honor... That's a lot of people
talking about her. Exactly. You're getting
a lot of information that I
haven't even heard of. But you were seen walking
in the back hallway with him,
on camera. When was this? What camera?
Where is it at?
Where's the footage? Since I'm cheating,
where is the footage
to show the judge? Do you have any evidence
of this, Mr. Fields? Yes, I do,
but it's currently not here. Therefore that's
not evidence. And therefore... I cannot hear it. If you're going to
come to court, you've
got to be prepared. (AUDIENCE AGREEING) You're making a lot of assertions. Did you bring
any evidence? Yes, I did, Your Honor. What do you have, sir? I have a calendar. Jerome, would you
please hand me Mr. Fields' evidence. This is a calendar
you've prepared? Yes. And this calendar
is to outline <i> what, exactly?</i> TYREL: <i> The conception
of my son.</i> JUDGE LAKE: <i> So you claim
the estimated conception date</i> <i> is around September 24th,
which is outlined in green.</i> <i> That's correct.</i> <i> And then you have this
altercation with the coworker</i> <i> on September 27th?</i> <i> Correct.</i> Right after he did
this gesture, which implied he was
sleeping with your girlfriend. Correct. And then, <i> on October 24th,</i> <i> the doctor confirmed
that Ms. Nichelson was
four weeks pregnant.</i> TYREL: <i> Yes.</i> Now, as you count back
four weeks, <i> it's right during
the week where</i> <i> you believe she was
having sex with the coworker.</i> Yes, not to mention,
we weren't having sex at all
around that time. (AUDIENCE GASPING) Your Honor, first off,
those dates are wrong. We went to school
together out in Pittsburgh, okay, I found out that
I was... We arrived there
the 22nd of October, I was told that
I was pregnant the 25th of October,
okay? Two weeks after that,
that's when I had my
first doctor's appointment. And they told me
that I was five weeks. So if you
count by... Count back five weeks, that's not...
That doesn't even add up. <i> Two weeks after
October 25th is what?</i> <i> The second week
of November, am I correct?</i> <i> Count back five weeks,
it's still October.</i> JUDGE LAKE: <i> Yes.</i> SHARICE: <i> Where are you
getting these dates from?
That's what I want to know.</i> TYREL: Either way
we weren't having sex. Tyrel, we never
used protection! Either way, we weren't
having sex at that time. We never used protection.
I don't understand. And, so, were you intimate
with Ms. Nichelson
in October? No. (SCOFFS) Oh, my God! Your Honor, I didn't
even want to have
sex with her. Your Honor, sorry. We had sexual relations
every day.
Every day. Without protection.
Without protection. So for you to sit up here
and deny my baby, that makes no sense because
you know that you never used a condom
and I was never
on birth control. Your Honor,
she had to beg me. She said, if I don't
give it to her,
she'll get it elsewhere. What sense
does
that make? What sense does
that make? I'm not pressed for it.
You are, clearly. Clearly that's what the
video showed. Clearly. So at the point you find out
you're pregnant, you tell Mr. Fields? I was there. When she found out? Yes. At that time, did
you have a doubt? At that time I was excited. But then I started thinking
about, overall, what just went on,
what happened
previous to that, and I started having doubts. Not to mention
I've been there
since the whole nine months. <i> I take care of my son,
I do everything
for him.</i> SHARICE: <i> If he's doubting
my kid,</i> what sense...
You're providing
for him. Why are you providing
for a child you
don't think is yours? <i> I told you that
I'm going to provide
for my son until</i> <i> I'm proven otherwise.</i> SHARICE: <i> All right.</i> (AUDIENCE APPLAUDING) JUDGE LAKE: Commendable. Your Honor, not to mention
I wasn't even
invited to the baby shower. You weren't? You were not...
You were not able...
I asked you to come. My mom did not
want you coming because none of my family
likes you. And you allowed that? And you know it. You know it.
We've been together
for four years. They've disliked you since
the second year of us
being together. And you allowed that? And you know it. Allow what?
It ain't my fault they don't like you,
it's because of yourself! Okay. It's because of yourself. So, Mr. Fields, when you didn't get
an invitation
to the baby shower, and you already were doubtful, that made you feel... That just added
icing on the cake for me. It added fuel
to the fire? Yeah. Your Honor, he even told me
that he didn't want to come,
due to my mother. That's false.
Your Honor, <i> the baby shower,
at that point,
didn't matter</i> because I had already had
my own baby shower
out of my own pocket. I buy everything
for him. He has all the toys.
Every release, he has. I buy everything for him,
his clothes. Before she was... When I first found out
she was pregnant,
I went right out, got a whole bunch of clothes
for him, everything. I was there for
the whole nine months,
I was paying the rent. I was there providing
for you and him. That's correct.
But, yet,
you brought me here because you're
denying the baby. So why provide for a child
that you
don't think is yours? You told me multiple times... You named him! You've told me... You're denying him,
but you named him! You told... He has your middle name
and last name. Would I name a child after him
if he's not his? You've told me multiple times
that he's not mine. What do you expect for
me to believe? I tell you this because you want to believe
that he's not yours, I'm going to also make you
believe he's not
yours until you... JUDGE LAKE: All right, so,
this is the part
right here because... Yeah. As the man says
he has doubts, as you get angrier
and angrier,
you begin to tell him, "Well, if you don't think the
baby's yours, "then I'll just tell you
the baby's not yours." And you do understand,
Ms. Nichelson,
that's just making a bad
situation worse. Mmm-hmm. Because... (AUDIENCE APPLAUDING) What you've giving him is, you know,
something to
hang his hat on, I mean, literally. And that's unfortunate. Not just for you two,
because you're going
tit-for-tat and back and forth
and can't get along, <i> but for the child!</i> <i> How many times have you
said to him,</i> <i> "This isn't your child,"
then?</i> SHARICE: <i> It only had to be
about twice.</i> That's a lie, Your Honor. Is there proof? How many times
has she said that? I can't even
count on my fingers. Is there proof? Your Honor, if... If a girl tells you that
he's not your son, and she wants to go
take him to go see
another man, then what is that
going to make you believe? She took your son
to see another man? That's what she told me
hours before we got here. Your Honor,
that's nowhere near true. Nowhere near true. JUDGE LAKE: So you didn't
say that to him? No. What did you say? I told him
that it wasn't his. I didn't take him
to see no other person. But did you
tell him you did? Yeah, I told him. Okay. We were arguing. And did you tell him that
another man was his father? Yes. Okay. But it's quite clear
that he is. And she told me that she
failed a lie detector test and she slept with
other people as well. Number one,
the lie detector test, I clearly passed. I clearly passed.
You wanted it,
I took it. JUDGE LAKE: Wow. I just don't
want this anymore. So once you get
proven otherwise, just
see yourself out my house. AUDIENCE: Oh! Your Honor, it's not going to
change the fact that
she's controlling. I'm controlling? I had to... I've had to take her to court
to get custody for my son. I'm controlling? Because she's kept him
away from me. We both have
half custody! We went together! Because I had to
take her down there. Not to mention she has
an open court for you,
for custody violation because you refused
to give me my son. You're saying
he's your son, but when we get here
it's something else. TYREL: <i> But I also told you
he's my son
until I'm proven otherwise.</i> SHARICE: <i> Okay.</i> All right, I think it's time
for the results. (AUDIENCE APPLAUDING) In the case of<i>
Fields v. Nichelson,</i> when it comes to
one-year-old Khazier Fields... Mr. Fields, you are his father. How do you feel now,
Mr. Fields? I feel awesome.
I feel great. It's not going to
change anything. I still want to
continue to be there. I'm still going to be
the best father to him
that I can be. You always knew this! JUDGE LAKE:
Well, this could have gone
a completely different way. But, luckily, and I am thankful, as immature as
both of you are, I am so thankful you were smart enough to
find your way to
this courtroom, to <i> Paternity Court,</i> so
you can just get the answers. (AUDIENCE APPLAUDING) Watching you two argue, if I didn't know
you were dating, I mean, sometimes,
it literally sounds
like brother and sister. I mean, it's like,
this is kids
having kids. There's two young people
trying to figure their own way out
into adulthood and now responsible
for raising
a young man. You guys got a lot
of work to do. But the immaturity
is clouding
your judgment and your ability
to co-parent and to focus on
what's important. I need you to work on that
and I'm serious. Because, ultimately,
there's an
innocent child out here that needs
you two to grow up. Am I clear? Yes, ma'am. Yes, Your Honor. I wish you the best of luck.
Court is adjourned. Good day. Miss Bosley, you and your son
have petitioned
the Court for a DNA test because you are certain he did not father
the defendant's
three-month-old son, Maverick, and there are two
other possible fathers. You say your son made
a young and dumb mistake by signing
the birth certificate and you need
today's paternity results to get his name off of it,
is that correct? Yes, Your Honor. Miss Jackson, you admit
to cheating with another man, but claim to be certain that Mr. Bosley is
Maverick's biological father. -Is that correct?
-Yes, Your Honor. So, Miss Bosley, explain why
you opened the case. Well, I opened the case because I feel like my son made
a terrible decision by signing
the birth certificate. You know, basically,
I just feel like, you know, we need to know.
We need to know because <i>I don't want my son to have to
go through life wondering
if this is his child or not.</i> So, you feel like you've got
to save your son from -a mistake he made.
-I do. Mr. Bosley, you signed
the birth certificate. -Yes.
-Even though you had doubts. I did sign
the birth certificate. Not saying
it wasn't the right thing,
it was stupid because I didn't...
I didn't know her. So, Miss Jackson,
Mr. Bosley says
he made a mistake. Well, my testimony is in the beginning, we were...
we were working together, and he was starting off like,
"Oh, I love you. Do you believe in first...
love at first sight?" And then, the next day,
well, the next day
we was talking, and then we had sex. And then he was
talking about, you know,
the kids, and all of that. And then I asked for a break because we were
moving too fast. I always said we were
moving too fast
in the beginning. So... you meet and
you almost immediately
start a sexual relationship. [Pearl] Correct, Your Honor. And start talking about
having babies? Correct. At first,
I didn't believe it
because I heard it once before. Yeah, 'cause you know
that's what men will say -just to get you
to lay down with them.
-[Pearl] Yes. Yes, Your Honor. They make it sound like
they wanna have a family. [Pearl] Mmm-hmm.
Yes, Your Honor. But they saying it
to everybody. -Mmm-hmm.
-[Judge Lake] Mmm-hmm. -So, you do sleep with him?
-Yes. And then, you know,
I had my own place
at that time. And he... I moved him in,
then that's when... I was cheating.
I made my mistake. I'm sorry.
I made my mistake
in the beginning of that two weeks
of me not knowing
if this is real or not. So, Mr. Bosley... -[Pearl] So, Your Honor...
-[Cydric] Well, Your Honor. [stammers] The situation
was how she told me. We were at the house
chilling, relaxing. And she basically came from
out of nowhere, a dude,
one of her ex-boyfriends, popped up at the house... -[audience exclaims]
-Yeah. -Popped up at the house--
-[Judge Lake] Popped up? -Yeah.
-So... -[Pearl] No, no.
-No, wait, what happened? He popped up at the house
and she went to go talk to him
for a little minute or so. But the whole time I'm looking out the window
trying to make sure
there ain't nothing going on. But at the time,
I was fine with that because we wasn't really...
we wasn't really together. We was just talking.
We didn't never fully
get together until-- So you sitting, but you
wasn't fine 'cause you
were looking out the window while she was talking. Because I just wanted
to make sure, you know. Exactly, 'cause
you weren't fine with it. You have admitted,
Miss Jackson,
"I made a mistake." You used the word "cheating"
and then you cleaned it up
and said "a mistake." [Pearl] Mmm-hmm. What happened?
You tell me 'cause I can't
get it out of Mr. Bosley. -I gave oral sex
to this person.
-[audience exclaims] -I don't... What man,
Your Honor--
-And he... -And he says--
-What man will believe
that she only gave oral sex? This is exactly why
you'll don't have no business, young, running around here, using sex like
it's like a...
an extracurricular activity. [audience exclaims] [Kenyatia] And, Your Honor,
just to interject, if you don't mind... Just to interject,
if you don't,
if you don't mind, I wasn't there
during the whole
sex and cheating thing. I found out
she was pregnant at maybe
about four months, maybe. And I told my son immediately, <i> that's not your baby.</i> <i> Like, you've been with her
not even long enough.</i> So, Miss Jackson,
when you found out
you were pregnant... -[Jackson] Mmm-hmm.
-...you told Mr. Bosley? Yes, Your Honor,
and then, he was like, "Oh, wow, you are?" You know, he was
excited about the situation. -Your Honor...
-And then... You'll had known each other
all of two months then,
and you'll was excited? It wasn't two months,
it was a month. -It was a month?
-Yup. [Cydric] No, I wasn't excited. The two guys
she cheated on me with, those were the guys
we worked together with. -Oh, so all of you
are co-workers?
-Yes, we all was co-workers. Your Honor,
I only cheated on him once. And that's with
the person that was at work. But I did have sex with two...
with one other person that was there at the job. And that was the person
that came to the house. The other person that
I didn't have oral sex with. -This is a mess.
This is a mess.
-[Kenyatia] Yeah. How many people
you gonna sleep with
at the same job? When are you working? [Kenyatia] That's why I'm here. -This baby, this baby
is what matters.
-[Judge Lake] Right. It just adds up
that she has slept with
three men on her job. There should be
no young woman out here sleeping with three men
at her job. And that's why I'm like,
"What's going on here?" [applause] I feel like, Your Honor,
it goes a bit deeper than that -because you just don't
have women out here...
-Oh, it's deep. It's deeper. ...sleeping with men
on their jobs. Like, something is
a bit deeper than that. Oh, no. Oh, no, no, no. It does go deeper.
It does go deeper than that. This is about two kids, young people,
you are out here spinning, and you're engaged
in activities
that create people, and it did. Maverick is three-months-old. <i> Beautiful, innocent child.</i> <i> And I'm trying
to get the circumstances</i> as to what was going on
when he was conceived, and you can't even
tell the story. My last menstrual cycle
was March 14th. And when I did have
oral sex with that person, -I was on my menstrual cycle
at that time.
-[audience exclaims] This is not about
just the oral sex. -You need to understand this,
Miss Jackson.
-[Jackson] Mmm-hmm. This is about the fact
that your child's
paternity is in question. If you have slept
with two co-workers, given oral sex to one, while you're supposedly
getting to know Mr. Bosley, no, it's not so far-fetched
that people would also assume that you may have slept
with that person or maybe even another person. At this point, you giving
yourself away for free. And that's another thing
that I haven't gotten to yet. 'Cause there's no reason
a beautiful
young girl, like yourself, should be running around here laying around with
this many men. It's unacceptable. [applause] And like I said,
I'm not saying this to you. Look at me when
I'm talking to you,
Miss Jackson. I'm not saying this to you
'cause I'm angry at you. I'm saying it to you
'cause I don't know if
you have anybody in your life to sit you down and say,
"You don't do that." Did you grow up
with your dad in your life? [sobs] No. He denied me, too. And it hurts.
[sobs] It hurts. I understand. I don't want my son
to grow up like that... without his dad
in the picture. Because I know how it feels, and I have my daddy issues. And growing up is hard. I understand
what you're saying. The way you feel about that, your actions are reflection of the fact that
you don't feel worthy. But that's not the way
we go about it, baby, because now you see
what has transpired has led you to
repeat the cycle. And that's what
we gonna break today. -[applause]
-Somehow, some way. So, Mom, I wanna ask you, you say you know
who Maverick's
biological father is. -Well...
-Well, Your Honor, I was... Actually,
how the situation
went about, um, I was in her phone one day. And I scrolled down to...
I was on Snapchat, basically. And I see a dude,
and I... I say,
"Whoa, he look just like my son."
I'm like, "What?" Your Honor,
he sent me that picture, and immediately,
just, in all honesty, I was like,
"That's not your son." Immediately, because
this made me think twice. And, Mom,
once you got that picture, -you believed this other man...
-[Kenyatia]
Oh, yeah, for sure. -...is the father.
-For sure. Well, you submitted
the messages that you saw. -See, look.
-And this is between Miss Jackson and the man
you believe is the father. <i> It says,
"I need some..." blank.</i> <i>That's what Miss Jackson said.</i> <i> He responds, blank,
"You can come this way, babe."</i> And then Miss Jackson responds,
blank, "Hell yeah." [Kenyatia] So, so, Your Honor, he resembles this man
in my eyes. And so you think
this other man <i> -is Maverick's
biological father.</i>
-[Kenyatia]<i> Could possibly be.</i> -[Cydric] Possibly.
-Well, this other man is here, -and I wanna hear from him.
-[applause] Jerome, will you please escort the other gentleman
into the courtroom? Wow. We're gonna go right up here.
Stay to the left. I see. -[Jerome] Right up here.
Upstairs.
-[man] Mmm. Mr. Green, thank you
for joining us today. Yes, ma'am. I wanna ask you
what's your relationship
with Miss Jackson? We met through a friend,
and then we started
talking through social media. All right, so,
was Miss Jackson interested in
a sexual relationship with you? Yes, Your Honor.
She was trying to have sex. So, do you believe you are
Maverick's biological father? No, I, no...
No, I don't. I just came here
to prove that I'm not. So, each of the young men have submitted
their baby photos and when you align them
with Maverick's, <i> there's Mr. Bosley as a baby,</i> <i>there's Maverick in the middle,</i> <i> and Mr. Green as a baby.</i> I just wanna know.
That's all I want, really. You know, it's a...
It's a kid on the line. And no disrespect to you,
that's why I called you up
that day, you know. -Mmm-hmm.
-[Pearl] It's not a kid,
it's a child. And I just wanna know. [Judge Lake] And at this point, what are you
hoping for, Mr. Bosley? Do you hope Maverick
is your son? Yeah, I do. -Okay.
-If he's mine, then, we can move on, but if he's not mine,
I'm gone. It's simple. What are your hopes,
Miss Jackson? What are you hoping for? I know you want
to break the cycle
for your beautiful son. [Jackson] I want him
to step up. Walking in the house
and going back out,
that's not enough time. Because that's... it feels like
that's what happened to me. [Kenyatia] Your Honor,
if I can just interject, my son, I love him, however,
he's wrong in this, too, because you can't just keep
running around making babies and not doing
what you're supposed
to be doing for them. -Period.
-[applause] I told Pearl
when I saw that picture, I felt like, okay,
this is not my son's baby. So, we've had
a conversation. Even if it's not his baby, I'm still gonna extend
the olive branch to her. -[Judge Lake] Well,
the olive branch...
-[applause] The olive branch
has been extended -and accepted, because your son
signed the birth certificate.
-Oh, yeah, for sure. But I even asked him
did he wanna sign
the birth certificate. -She didn't ask me that.
-Yes, I did. -You don't remember.
-Why'd you sign it? Same way he was
sitting out there
looking out the window, while she was sitting in a car
with another man. And the same reason why
she came back in and said she had had oral sex
with another guy. -And he still moved in.
-I signed it because
I felt like he was mine. [overlapping] ...messages,
and it's still in here. It's the same reason why. Jerome, I'm ready
for the results. [applause] In the case of<i>
Bosley v. Jackson...</i> pertaining to whether
Mr. Bosley or Mr. Green is the father
of three-month-old
Maverick Bosley... It has been
determined by this Court, the biological father is Mr... Bosley. [applause] That is your son. -Okay, I...
-Your biological son. Well, that's... It's off my chest.
That's all I came here for. That's all I wanted. I wanted him
to be my son. So, we got
what we came here for. [Judge Lake] I'm happy.
I'm happy for Maverick. But the way you have
approached your
sexual relationships thus far makes me want to caution you, that if you continue to use sex
as just an activity that you will
end up here again. And if he tells you
a half a line or tells you,
"You look cute today," you gonna be
back up there with him, and you know
I'm telling you the truth,
that's why I see that tear. You know
what I'm saying, right? -Yes, Your Honor.
-And every woman
has that moment. The next thing you know,
you in the bed, half way down to making
another baby with him. And I think
you know what I'm saying. I can see it in your eyes.
You get it, right? Yes, Your Honor. I just can't stand to see
a beautiful young woman just give herself away. [stammers] And you ask... you gotta ask God
for discernment. I'm, well, I'm about to be 50,
Jerome, I'm about
to be 50 years old and I still ask God,
I pray for discernment. Let me be able to see
what's really going on.
