"
Mother of Accused NSA Leaker Reality Winner:
My Daughter Wasn’t Read Her Miranda Rights"
Democracy Now! 3/2/18
"I was stunned to see her brought into the (court)room in an orange jumpsuit.
I had covered other cases similar to this. And I was under the assumption that she would be brought into a back room, allowed to change into whatever she wanted to wear, and then brought out in those clothes.
And when she entered, she had shackles on her feet, she had cuffs. They brought her all the way up to the defense table and then took the handcuffs off. I believe they kept the shackles on her legs, so she sat down with those
. . . seems to me that what’s going on here is some serious dehumanization of somebody right before a judge’s very eyes." - Kevin Gosztola
