Dixon: I'm not happy to be in court

After Dorothy Dixon testified against her brother, Couey's attorney Daniel Lewan attacked her credibility on the stand.

He got Dixon to admit that she and her brother used cocaine on the night of Feb. 23 2005 when Jessica disappeared.

"I had a $20 rock," she said, volunteering that she had been "ripped off."

Dixon said she wasn't happy about being in court. Lewan reminded her that she was arrested and accused of lying to law enforcement about her brother's whereabouts. She bought Couey a bus ticket to Savannah, Ga. after authorities started looking for suspects.

Dixon said she never saw Jessica at her mobile home.

Bullarky this person or subhuman knew that the little girl was there, and they lied. They should be held accountable.
