The day before the article I had watched a Law& Order SVU from last season about a man who hired someone to stalk his rapist so she could not testify. I am really floored by the case how easy it can be for someone to frame someone in this manner. Especially in this case since she tended to use cash seemingly which helped to show no paper trail of where she was.
After showing it to a few friends including a lawyer and two judges, they seemed surprised by the amount her bail was. They seemed to think she must have had a bad lawyer to have the bail set and kept so high for her to be in jail so long. They also could not seem to think of any overt negligence the police did. They were also sure she will get a settlement offer, in the past decade NYPD has spent hundreds of millions on settlements.
