I got ask to be on the news should I? - Page 2 - YorkieTalk.com Forums

GinosMommy · 01-28-2008, 11:23 AM

I would do it and have them change my voice and name and black out my face.

I agree in having your face blackened so they dont know it was you, there are some strange scary people in this world ..sad but true

I'd just see if they would take a written statement from you, stating you would love to comment yourself, but do have family to think about! I would state what you want and need to, but still be carefull not to give links to yourself. And you do have to respect the fact, that it is just not you, it is your family, too that might have to endure the feed back from this!
You have done GOOD! Do what you feel is right for you and family! Hold your head up very high, and enjoy the peace in your heart, that has come from doing for the little animals!

I was going to suggest this too. Please, be very careful. Goodluck to you!

If your testimony will be used in court, and they are counting on that, shouldn't you talk to the attorney involved? Would that be the county or district attorney? They may have a preference one way or the other. I would go with whatever they suggest. You don't want to do something that would inadvertently hurt their case against this woman.

What did your hubby say? And what did you decide to do? Prayers for you as you make a very delicate decision.

They can actually distort your voice also

maxs_momma · 01-28-2008, 12:21 PM

Sweetr72 we were posting the same thing at the same time!

Good post, this is what I would do.. I would not do it unless they had my face darkened. And my idenity kept secret.. it can be done, and I would make them make a signed agreement on this at the same time..

It is a very scary thing now a days.. I wish you good luck and think you have done a wonderful job on what you have done so far..
