Boating Accident/Death off Diamond Island

Hmmmm...

Conspicuous in her absence from the either the Defendant's or the State's witness list is the second passenger, the one who survived with a broken jaw: Nicole Shinopolous, from Massachusetts.

This is very curious.

I assume she's a friend of the defendant; have they reached some "confidential settlement" of her personal injury claim, such that she no longer has a dog in this fight?

Can she not found, or does she refuse to testify as the State would want her to?

Moir didn't list her as a witness, so it seems she won't testify on Blizzard's behalf.

Were she to testify truthfully, she'd be able establish the facts as they unfolded on that dark and stormy night.

So I ask: will she testify, and if not, why not?
