Then, to make matters worse, the Hartford Courant reporter, Christine Dempsey was there. I had been friends with her since my days as a writer at the Courant. In her last story of the arraignment, she wrote, "an animal activist began yelling at Berry's family". She got snotty with me when I tried to explain exactly what happened BEFORE we were outside of the courthouse. (not that I needed to). She told me " there were at least 3 outbursts and it's not about the cat!" and proceeded to walk away from me. I KNOW that!! I was simply there in support of ALL the families involved. Let's see what kind of one sided story she comes up with THIS time. I was always taught you get BOTH sides of the story before writing a story. Guess her ethics are different than mine. I'm glad the victim's family members refuse to talk to her. God only KNOWS what twist she'd put on their comments. Next court date is April 3.
