Usher Labels Tameka Incapable of Being a Proper Parent


Closing arguments have wrapped in the child custody case between Usher and Tameka Raymond with Usher labeling Tameka an incapable parent and Tameka branding Usher an absentee father...

In his closing statement Usher's lawyer described Tameka as handicapped telling the court,
"We believe the evidence is that Ms. Raymond is incapable of being a proper parent to these children. That she does not have the emotional stability or capacity to bond with them, and therefore she is handicapped."
Tameka's lawyer countered that Usher is on the road constantly and that it would not be Usher caring for the children but a village of nannies and family members, including Usher's mother, who Tameka's lawyer pointed out, does not have a good relationship with the singer.

Usher is seeking sole custody of the children while Tameka is trying to maintain joint custody with a $3,000 increase in support.

A ruling is expected next week.
