While Muller was allegedly drugging and raping Huskins, Quinn had various tasks he had to perform to pay a ransom.
Quinn and Huskins said Muller told them the other would be shocked or have their face cut if they didn't comply.
"They were really brave and I'm so proud of both of them they did an excellent job," said Aaron Quinn's mother Marianne.
Muller did not cross-examine Quinn or Huskins.

"I'm sure that they were relieved," said Chief Deputy District Attorney Sharon Henry.
Muller telling the judge, "I don't know how I'm supposed to put on a case your honor."
"Matthew Muller has been given discovery but because he decided to represent himself there were logistics around getting him everything," said Henry.
Earlier in the day Muller said about the discovery he hadn't seen, "It could be an aardvark or an eggplant for all I know."

As the conclusion of the day, Muller's final words to the judge included, "I'm not match for millionaires, I don't even have one attorney."
He also said, "I did not plead guilty in federal court because I'm guilty."

"If you get to know him he's really a complete different person than what you thought," said Huei Dai.
When asked why he didn't cross examine Quinn and Huskins she said, "He believes if you're putting someone on the stand like that you're going to victimize them again and it's not right. He is all for justice."
She said she didn't know if Muller had other people who worked with him.
Muller will be back in court in two weeks. Quinn and Huskins are expected to testify again at trial.
