TUCSON (KGUN9-TV) - The young woman at the center of a custody battle 16-years ago took the stand on Friday.

Her father, David Watson, on trial for her mother's murder, her grandma and another woman.
 
Jordynn Watson is now 20-years old.
 
 
At the time of her mother's disappearance, she was four.
 
Prosecutor Nicol Green asked Jordynn if she remembered anything from that day or any conversations that happened between her and her father.
 
"I don't remember if there were. At least with me. I don't recall."
 
Green played a video of seven-year-old Jordynn Watson being questioned by a detective the day after her grandmother Marilyn Cox was killed.
 
The video shows Jordynn saying she spent that day with both her grandmother's and Marilyn Cox dropped her off at home.
 
She said David Watson was home in the backyard, but she didn't actually see him until after she was in bed.
 
In the video, Jordynn says her father wished her goodnight like he always did and nothing seemed unusual.
