She gets on CBS 60 Minutes with bombshell #1; ABC GMA with bombshell #2--Expect bombshell #3 with a Dan Abrams exclusive on NBC. The trifecta!
I hate being so cynical-but I can't help it.
The power of accurate observation is commonly called cynicism by those who have not got it. ~ George Bernard Shaw
What about Kim's parents? Have they given any interviews?
Nothing wrong with cynicism as abb and Shaw said. Many if not most people do the right things because they fear their neighbors, the public via government or God will punsih them if they don't. The problem in that that fear is not enough for a worisome segment of the population.
So I don't really care why Roberts is telling what seems to be the truth to me. I don't care that Roberts fuzz here statements while potentially under Nifong's thumb any more than I care what US POWs say while in enemy hands. All I care is that for whatever reason, Roberts seems to be telling the truth and she basically has from the start.
Imagine this case if:
1. Roberts had not said it was a crock from the start.
2. Roberts decided that Nifong had so much on her that she would corroberate Mangum's story?
The N&O type smear press coverage of this story would be continuing today. Grace, etal would be slamming these guys on TV every night. The inconsistencies in Mangum stories would be bandaged over by Roberts agreeing with whatever version Nifong decided to go with. The defendants ONLY hope would be that Mangum would be such a poor witness that the jury would not believe her.
Again, I don't care why she is telling the truth. I do care very much that she has looked at the situation and found telling the truth in her best interest for whatever reason.
Kim has no obligation to tell anybody anything. Besides, we knew as much as we needed to about this case from the discovery the defense received. Kim's main contribution were known long ago.
She kept silent while her fate was in Liefong's hands, meaning the prosecution of her violation of probation case. I'm sure she heard about what happened to Elmostafa. Anybody with half a brain would do the same thing - shut up until out of personal jeopardy.
