Reginald McKamie, Sharon Brown's attorney:

"You look at passenger Steele. He did not even know that Victoria went up there. How credible was that. The other passenger, she said she didn't hear anything. How many people came here and said they heard Victoria Osteen and Sharon Brown. How credible is that?

So, who are the more credible witnesses? I'm telling you that the more credible witnesses are Sharon Brown and Maria Johnson.

If they tell you that this should be brought in a criminal court, tell them that that is not your job. And that you don't need to be thinking that.

Your job is restricted to this charge. And if something starts saying this should be in criminal court. Tell the judge because that is not your job.

Let's talk about damages:

The evidence is undisputed that she had medical damages.

Medical expenses: $2,625 and $400 to $1,200

Physical pain: If it's medium damages... $200,000. If it's a case that you feel is large damages: $1 million. But this is not a large damage case. And I wouldn't tell you that. It's a small price for the pain. I would ask you to put $5,000 to $10,000.

Mental Anguish: The big damages here are indignation, wounded pride, loss of dignity, public humiliation, grief. Sharon Brown, when Victoria assaulted her was humiliated and she grieved and she lost her trust in her faith providers.

Luke 13: Much is required from those who are given much. For their responsibility is greater.

Yeah, it happened because of Victoria Osteen.
I would recommend for mental anguish in the past: $200,000. I'm asking you to do that because this is probably a medium pain. It's not the loss of a leg, but it's a medium pain.

Mental Anguish she will sustain in the future. Sharon Brown is 48 years old. She has a lot of living to do. She is going to have to deal with this for the rest of her life. She has to be reconnected and to accept faith providers. I would submit to this it forces me to suggest that you put $200,000 for future mental anguish.

I would ask you to ask the defense team what is a person's dignity worth? How much is loss in faith providers worth? Let them tell you that.

Thank you."
