The two also discussed Brunell banging her head on a door jam during their relations.

“Could they have made that up if they tried?” Krakowka said. “Those are the kind of details that go way past just fantasies.”

“Men look at women when they have sex with them. What was he looking around counting the holes on the ceiling tiles?” her lawyer Victor Bunitsky said to jurors.

Brunell's attorneys also argued she was doing her job as a nurse.

Krakowka argued Brunell’s position as someone supposed to help offenders makes her actions even more egregious.
