Still thye would of have set-up cameras/lighting etc... how the heck did the court allow this to happen?
Coming back into Estrella as a convicted felon, she would probably HAVE NOT been allowed to give interviews because of security, etc. because she would be moved from "Un-Sentenced" to "Sentenced" area of Estrella.
Because she was in the basement of the Courthouse, there's that fine line between courthouse security and Sheriffs.
JA probably knew that if she got M1, this would be her only opportunity. She probably asked a LOT of questions BEFORE her original "Deal" with Troy, to find out what the SOP was AFTER the verdict. Transport is such that there is no "Perp Walk" between the court and the holding cell or Jail/Prison transport like other jurisdictions.
I am snickering to myself that a local newsman got in there, instead of the "reporters" from quasi "news" programs I will not name. The timing of the report, I had my questions, but better sooner than later. It won't be there to trivialize or take the attention away from the Alexander's impact statements, or any comments the family may want to give to the media....I hope...fingers crossed.
I don't think Sheriff Joe will be obligated, in anyway, to allow JA any interviews through the rest of the court process, and after that, she should be going to an evaluation center before her transport to Perryville, unless they're killing 2 birds with one stone, with her current "Suicide Protocol". (Lower Buckeye Jail used to do the evaluations, but I don't know what their current operations consist of.) I don't believe interviews are allowed during the evaluation process, which usually takes a month. (But that could be by-passed because of DR)
Would like KCL's opinion on this: I think at this point, the Alexanders may have seen this as just "another Jodie" and ignored it.
I think if I was one of Travis' siblings, I would know that anything I said in the VIS would NOT effect the convicted on a human level, but I would want it documented in the court records. For some reason, I think JA will try to continue doodling while the VIS's are being read. I don't think anything could be said, that would break her delusional state.
Kind of ironic that she'd make the motion for video taped VIS as to not prejudice the jury, when she directly goes out and has a video taped interview directly after her guilty verdict....how prejudicial is that? I don't think that the jurors would take her words very kindly.
