I'm so disappointed by this!! Can that poor man have no control in his life without her interfering and intimidating him!

What I find extremely sad and upsetting about this is that the judge just allowed her to do the very thing she's accused of. Controlling the poor man! So basically victims have less rights than the accused and that is VERY wrong IMO! What about HIS constitutional rights?!? Sheesh. I'm really upset about this. This is SO wrong!!!!

So what is the point of an alias if it is going to be made known to the perpetrator

Exactly! I really feel for him. She's controlled him his whole life (IMO) and even now he is finally free she is still trying to control him. It's appalling.

Giving the abuser the alias and address? That’s insanity! I’m so disgusted. At least the judge ruled against her taking off her GPS.. ugh

The judge on Friday granted a request from the state ensuring the stepson’s medical records only be viewed in the office of the defense for the purposes of the case, NBC Connecticut reported.

Also on Friday, the judge denied a motion from Sullivan’s attorneys filed in August asking the court to remove her GPS tracker. The judge said the issue can be revisited later on.

The next hearing is set for Dec. 19, according to Kaloidis.

While I expected this ruling I am disappointed nonetheless. I figured defense would also argue how can our client avoid being anywhere near a person whose name and location that the defendant or her counsel do not know?

I appreciate the judge leaving her GPS tracker on. IF she is stupid enough to attempt to in any way to, by her physical presence, intimidate or harass S there will be a digital trail to support that.
