Los Angeles attorney Tre Lovell told Fox News Digital the defense is focusing on three major strategies: the brothers’ rehabilitation, testimony from character witnesses, and revisiting the sexual abuse they claim to have endured as children. Sarah joined FOX in 2021, where she has assisted on coverage of breaking and major news events across the US and around the world, including the fallout following the "Defund the police" movement, the assassination attempts on President Donald Trump's life and illegal immigration.
