While Todd did not disclose what caused the tremulous relationship between them, he said that the prosecution has no evidence to support that the VC was forced into prostitution by his client.He asked Chief Magistrate Ann McLennan to disbelieve the testimony given by the VC, since she agreed to have his client take her to French Guiana, for the purpose of caring for her younger daughter, since she was expected to be out of the country.Todd stated that the VC was an invited guest at his client’s home, where they shared a good relationship.According to Todd, there was no evidence led by the prosecution to prove that the VC’s movements were controlled by the defendant.“From the time she (VC) entered French Guiana she kept her passport and she testified that the passport remained with her in a separate room.
