Los Angeles — Taylor Swift's mother broke down in tears as she
gave emotional testimony on Wednesday in a Denver, Colorado,
courtroom, during a radio host's lawsuit against the pop star.
"I know what happened I heard it from my daughter's mouth," said
Andrea Swift, Taylor's mother.
"He sexually assaulted her, that guy," Swift's mother said, looking
at Denver radio host David Mueller, according to local broadcaster
KMGH The Denver Channel.

She also said she "wanted to vomit and cry" after hearing about the
alleged groping, the broadcaster reported.
Mueller's lawsuit alleges that Swift made false accusations - that he
groped her during a meet-and-greet in 2013 - that led to him being
fired, according to court documents.
Swift counter-sued, accusing Mueller of assault. She alleged that
during a staged photo opportunity, Mueller reached underneath her
dress and touched her buttocks.
