It's deserving of calling her someone who gave Kobe a price tag for his freedom.

Per her own lawyer, she “insisted on that statement as a price of freedom.”

So it was a requirement, a hoop to jump through, for him to be able to get on with his life.

There's nothing about this to indicate guilt. You infer guilt on your own, but that's not present in the statement, nor the reason the statement was made.

there's a reason you said "sounds like" and "basically", and not "actually", because the actuality doesn't jive with the "basic" interpretation.

Again: “insisted on that statement as a price of freedom.”

>As is it fair game to ask Lisa about it.

No, it's not at all fair game to put that burden on her, and certainly not right now.

…which is why it's really not at all fair game to press her on that.
