(MENAFN) During the civil trial over the 2016 accident, Terry Sanderson, a retired optometrist who accused Gwyneth Paltrow of crashing into him while skiing over seven years ago and leaving him seriously injured, testified on Monday. This was the first time that Sanderson took to the stand to testify in the trial. He filed a complaint against Paltrow in January 2019, and later filed an updated complaint a month later. Sanderson began his testimony by addressing his absence from the courtroom for most of the previous week, stating that he didn't want to be present while his daughters testified, so they could speak freely.
During his testimony, Sanderson recounted his recollection of the incident, which allegedly occurred on February 26, 2016, insisting on the stand that he was downhill while Paltrow was uphill. Sanderson claimed that there was nothing in front of him when the alleged incident occurred. He recalled hearing a "blood-curdling scream" before he said he "got hit in my back so hard." The next thing he remembered, he said, was that "everything is black."
Sanderson's testimony sheds light on the details of the incident that occurred several years ago and has been the subject of ongoing legal battles. As the trial continues, more information about the incident is expected to come to light, potentially impacting the outcome of the case.
