you've known this family
for a long time.
>> Yes.
>> Judge Judy: Right?
>> Yes.
>> Judge Judy: Was it
Mr. Abrahamson's practice
to go to the casino before
you got the job there?
Think before you answer
the question.
Otherwise, I bring Molly up,
and Molly's not going
to be happy if I bring her up.
Do you understand?
>> Yeah.
>> Judge Judy: Was it
Mr. Abrahamson's practice?
Some people like the casino,
and some people don't go
to the casino regularly.
So you know them
for a long time.
>> Yes.
>> Judge Judy: And you're
not a regular worker bee.
So did you know
that it was his practice
to go the casino
for entertainment?
>> Yes, Your Honor.
I had worked there before.
>> Judge Judy: Okay.
And how frequently
did he go to the casino before?
>> Before?
>> Judge Judy:
Once a week, twice a week,
three times a week?
>> Maybe twice a month.
>> Judge Judy: On the weekends?
>> Yes.
>> Judge Judy:
And would you see him there?
>> Yes.
>> Judge Judy:
Where would you see him?
>> On the floor,
at the slot machine.
>> Judge Judy:
Did he go with his wife?
>> On occasion, yes.
A lot of times...
>> Judge Judy: Sometimes.
>> ...he was there
on his own, yeah.
>> Judge Judy:
And sometimes on his own.
>> Yes.
>> Judge Judy:
And when did this assault
take place?
Give me the date.
>> December 14 of...
>> Judge Judy: Of last year.
>> ...2015.
>> Judge Judy:
And when did you start
to work at the casino?
>> March of 2016.
>> Judge Judy: So you started
to work at the casino
knowing that he went there
twice a month,
either alone or with his wife.
>> That is correct, Your Honor.
>> Judge Judy: Right.
So it was not surprising to you
to find him at the casino
because you knew that
he was a regular at the casino.
>> That's correct.
>> Judge Judy: Great. Judge Jude
a video to show me, I assume.
There's something there
to show me
how you believe he harassed you.
When, by the way,
when did you leave the casino?
When did you leave that job?
>> At the end of May,
Your Honor.
>> Judge Judy: Of 2000 --
>> Of 2016.
>> Judge Judy: 2016.
So you have that...
Listen to me. Hey.
>> Yes. Yes.
>> Judge Judy: So you had that
job for less than eight weeks.
Yes.
>> Yes.
>> Judge Judy: Prior to that,
where did you work?
>> Before that I was working
for Dairy Queen, I believe.
>> Judge Judy:
What do you mean, you believe?
Where you working
for Dairy Queen,
or were you not working
for Dairy Queen?
>> Yes, I was.
>> Judge Judy:
A cone and a little ice cream
doesn't way more than 10 pounds.
What happened to that job?
>> I had left.
>> Judge Judy:
I assume there's one Dairy Queen
in your neighborhood.
>> Yes.
>> Judge Judy:
So it's very easy to find out.
Tell me what happened
to that job and when.
>> I had left that job,
Your Honor.
We had new management.
>> Judge Judy:
You had new management.
What did new management
have to do with you?
>> We weren't getting along.
>> Judge Judy: You weren't
getting along with the new team?
>> Right.
>> Judge Judy:
And from when to when
did you work for Dairy Queen?
>> October 30, I believe, is
when I started, and January 5,
maybe, was when I --
>> Judge Judy: So you worked
there also
for less than eight weeks.
>> Yeah.
>> Judge Judy:
And that was January of 2016?
>> Correct.
>> Judge Judy:
And then you were unemployed
for two months,
and then you got a job
and had that job
for another eight weeks.
Now, prior to working
for Dairy Queen,
who did you work for?
>> I believe I was unemployed
for a little while, Your Honor.
>> Judge Judy:
What's a little while?
From September of 2015,
when this assault took place,
to May of 2016,
did you work more than 16 weeks?
Eight weeks or less
for Dairy Queen and eight weeks
or less at the casino.
>> No.
>> Judge Judy:
Did you work for anybody else?
>> Yes.
>> Judge Judy: I'm listening.
>> Okay.
Little Store, Your Honor.
A Little Store, a gas station.
>> Judge Judy: From when to when
did
you work at the Little Store?
>> From May of 2015
until September,
when the assault took place,
Your Honor.
>> Judge Judy: Okay.
May, June, July, August,
so you worked at the gas station
for four months...
>> Yes.
>> Judge Judy: ...in 2015.
>> Correct.
>> Judge Judy:
From September 2015
until May of 2016, am I correct
that you held two jobs,
both for a serious of weeks,
one for Dairy Queen
and one at the casino?
>> Correct.
>> Judge Judy: What did you do
with the rest of the time?
>> I was in recovery
for a little
while after the assault.
A lot of the times
I was scared to leave my house.
It was one of the big reasons
why I didn't have any jobs.
I've also been going through
this disability, Your Honor.
>> Judge Judy:
Well, then my question to you...
And then we're going to look
at your video.
Then my question to you,
Mr. Pritchard, is,
if you were scared
to go out of the house...
>> Yes.
>> Judge Judy:
...what did you take a job
for at a casino where you knew
the defendant frequented?
