Racecar driver Kurt Busch testified in court on Tuesday that his ex-girlfriend is a trained assassin who travels the world killing people for money.
"Everybody on the outside can tell me I'm crazy, but I lived on the inside and saw it firsthand," Busch said of his ex, Patricia Driscoll. A snippet of Busch's alleged proof:

The two were in court because Driscoll is seeking a protective order against Busch, whom she claims assaulted her last year. Driscoll denies that she is an assassin, saying Busch got the idea from a movie script she's writing.
