Pat Nixon held the title for most stoic wife until Maureen Dean gave an Oscar-winning performance during her husband's Watergate testimony, sitting primly behind him, blond hair pulled back, holding the Nancy Reagan gaze before there was a Nancy Reagan gaze.

Last week the courtroom was riveted by a prosecutor's videotape made of Nussbaum after the pair were arrested last year. It showed a woman with the blank gaze of a zombie, covered with scars and bruises, her right leg bearing green ulcerations, and with several bones and joints misshapen from injuries that were never properly treated. Sitting up front every day, just behind Joel Steinberg, is Michelle Launders, 27, Lisa's natural mother. She was 19, pregnant...
