A TV news crew chases down suspended lawyer Diana C. Minella to answer questions about the hundreds of clients she left in the lurch, but all they get is stonewalled. After Wednesday's bankruptcy hearing, Minella pretends to ignore the reporter and camera as she sits in a car.
As a lawyer, I realize her attorney probably told her not to say anything, because she faces trouble from several angles: her bankruptcy, the Texas State Bar, and possible criminal charges. You have to be careful when you open your mouth, so you don't get yourself in any more trouble. Still, as a former journalist, I think it's better for the subject to get in front of the story and try to steer the way you want it to go than to let someone else take the wheel.
Hat tip for the video: Strange In San Antonio.
