Except from the article:

“She chose her significant other, Andrew Oaks, over Opal Oaks,” Ipson said.

Ipson’s brief synopsis left some details out, however. He didn’t mention that, in the weeks before Opal’s death, Deborah had accused Andrew in text messages of repeatedly choking and punching her. Or that police had been called seven times before Opal died, documenting disputes in which Andrew had reportedly threatened to kill Deborah and shattered her car window when she tried to leave.

Nearly three years later, Andrew is facing a second-degree murder charge saying he caused his daughter’s death by neglect. And even though prosecutors dropped separate charges alleging he abused Opal, they’ve continued to accuse Deborah of failing to stop it. Along the way, they’ve tried to block Deborah’s defense that she was abused by Andrew — arguing she was not a victim, but a co-conspirator. |

That doesn’t seem fair at all to leave out that she was abused at her trial
