To whom it may concern:

The first time I saw Janet Brouse enraged was on a Sunday afternoon in March or April 2006. Her husband sent me an invite via e-mail to his house for a barbecue that he was going to have later that day.

Upon my arrival, Janet was ranting and screaming at Daniel about something while their children looked on. She stomped around the house slamming doors, etc. I don't recall what exactly she was mad about or what she was yelling. It appeared at the time that it was about the fact that myself and others were invited in an impromptu manner to the Brouse house -- a type of invite that was rare (because thier social functions were usually planned well in advance.) I do remember that Janet said to me, "he's an asshole." Shortly thereafter, she stormed out, got into one of the family cars and drove off. She returned a bit later and seemed to have calmed down some. She was still upset and may have been crying. She looked like she had been crying. She apologized to me for her behavior, and we continued with the barbecue.

At that time, I did not know that this was a regular or "normal" occurrence in the Brouse house.

Sincerely,
Wally
