Accuses Gonis of endangering daughter

Accusation0 Comments

Auerbach accuses estranged wife Gonis of endangering their daughter Sadie, saying his wife tried to commit suicide twice in one day: once by cutting her leg open in front of Sadie, and then by trying to burn the house down. Gonis responds by saying the leg gash was due to years of abuse in the marriage, and that the fire was an accident. Auerbach receives temporary custody of his daughter while Gonis gets supervised visitation rights until the judge is “convinced she’s mentally stable and is not putting their daughter at risk.”
