“You had two faces. A public face of appearing to have a good
relationship with Don and Gail… agree or disagree?”
“I had a good relationship with Don and Gail,” is the response.
“I suggest your private face was the one you showed in your Facebook use… and how you truly felt about Don and Gail was how you
expressed it [there],” the prosecutor says, referring to messages where Ms Patterson is critical of her estranged husband Simon’s family.

Ms Patterson replies that she still believes he is a good person.
