Additional information on this site indicates she risked facing trial for serious charges of some sort or another, back in November of 1999. Anybody here have a clearer notion of just what, exactly, is being hinted at here...?

CBS turns over interview with murder defendant

November 10, 1999 Web posted at: 10:58 PM EST (0358 GMT)
NEW YORK (CNN) -- To keep a producer [Mary Mapes] from being thrown into jail, CBS News on Wednesday turned over the transcript of an interview that Dan Rather conducted with the third defendant being tried for murder in the dragging death of a black man.

The trial of Shawn Allen Berry, 24, got under way in Jasper, Texas, on Wednesday after a judge refused a defense request for a change of venue.

Two other men, white supremacists John William King and Lawrence Russell Brewer, already have been convicted and sentenced to die for chaining James Byrd Jr. by his ankles to a pickup truck and dragging him along a country road until his body was torn apart
