If I were Ms Klemm I would have insisted in a trial, just to see who these people were. I also would have had an attorney who didn't look like a fakatke

Oh, and another thing, I'm so tired of people pulling out the kid card. If the child sees something like this it seems like a good time to have a chat. Explain what they saw. I have explained much worse than this... why people have powder on their nose and boogers on their shirt, why people are out and about with someone not their wife. In this case I would have said that this woman took her good china to a picnic and we just don't do that.
She didn't have a trial because she had been advised by her lawyer that she would lose and the sentence would have been a lot worse. Lawyers usually have a good grasp on these things.

Also, because they were still at it when LE arrived it was witnessed by the police so whoever called would not be required to testify. In fact the police may not even know who called.
