Hospital security arrived.
Then officers.
Emily gave her account without me answering for her.

She said the argument began at the Prescott estate after she told Ethan
she wanted to separate.
Margaret accused her of trying to embarrass the family.
Brandon blocked a doorway.
Emily said Ethan grabbed her.
She described being pushed into the guest house and having her phone
taken.
She described multiple acts of violence.
I will not turn my daughter’s injuries into spectacle.
What mattered was that the medical team documented what they observed.
