I completely disagree. "The contempt charge carries a possible sentence of 180 days in jail and a $500 fine." If she thinks telling the truth is worth $500 and perhaps more jail time than the rapists got, then I'm okay with her speaking out. She'll feel a whole lot better for the rest of her life if she stands up for herself and gives those predators the public humiliation and other girls a public warning about those guys. That's well worth $500 in my book. Judges are not magic. They and their orders deserve only the respect and obedience that are due based on the justice of their decisions. In this case, that's no respect at all.
As I said. jury trial, demand max sentence. DARE YOU
The judge has no authority to order to do anything; she wasn’t enjoined to the case, so his order doesn’t apply to her.
