A: Do not give her attorney anything. I am not sure exactly what all the facts are in this case but I would not give her attorney anything.

There is no upside to giving it to HER attorney YOUR videos of her, and possibly many downsides that I can imagine in future litigation or false claims.

Those videos protect you. She is obviously erratic and unpredictable.

Unless compelled to do so by court order, I would not give her the videos. You have nothing to gain by doing so.

Hopes this helps.
