Senator Linda Reynolds' parents have broken their silence, giving emotional testimony on how the aftermath of Brittany Higgins' rape allegation sparked 'brutal attacks' on their once 'universally loved and respected' daughter.
Janice and Laith Reynolds provided written testimony to the WA Supreme Court on Wednesday, as their daughter's blockbuster defamation trial against Ms Higgins continues.
Senator Reynolds is suing Ms Higgins and her husband David Sharaz over social media posts the couple made in 2022 and 2023.
The posts were critical of Senator Reynolds' handling of Ms Higgins' allegation she was raped in Parliament House in 2019 by her then colleague Mr Lehrmann.
