However, she threw her boss under the boss, the first guy arrested. He was held for two weeks but had a very solid alibi and was nowhere near the scene. Her behavior was odd. Her contradictions, confession, retraction, etc. all were bizarre. I heard a good quip from someone on a call in show here. She probably didn't do the killing but she knows more about what actually happened than she is sharing. What happened to the girl killed was horrible and I feel for her family.

This is a short and somewhat balanced overview of the contradictions in the case:

From what was reported yesterday, when you expanded things she said, they were a lot less damning. The accusation against the owner of the nightclub was more like speculation.

Clearly she's a cunning linguist.
