Question 24

True/False

Her story provides a fair amount of detail. Unfortunately, there is no one else who saw the incident to verify the story. Crocked is eventually called to testify, but then refuses to comply. According to precedent established in Branzburg, she will not be compelled to give her evidence since she is a journalist and the shield law protects her.
