Daniels testifies about her personal biography as prosecutors paint a sympathetic picture
Prosecutor Susan Hoffinger, asking stormy daniels about her background, making her a sympathetic character.
Hoffinger knows that Donald Trump’s team is going to try to undermine Daniels’ credibility, so she shows that the adult actress is a dynamic, compassionate, intelligent woman.
Daniels testified that she had received a full scholarship to veterinary medicine, but did not attend because of the cost. She got into the adult industry in high school, when Daniels met someone at the horse stable where she worked, who was an exotic dancer.
I started dancing on the weekends, which was really cool because I didn’t have to miss any classes, and I could make more in two nights than I could digging manure for eight hours a day.
Hoffinger also prompted Daniels to discuss how he left home early at the age of 17. “My mother was very neglectful, she would be gone for days at a time,” Daniels recalled.
I wish I could say she was addicted of some kind, because that would be some kind of excuse…
Hoffigner asked Daniels if she had been supporting herself since leaving home as a teenager. “Yes,” said Daniel.
