I read the article and I just don't understand these people.
Quote:
Yates' attorney and family were jubilant.
Its unbelievable, defense attorney George Parnham said. Im stunned, unbelievably happy.
Yates' mother, Jutta Kennedy, heard the news by phone from network TV reporters Matt Lauer and Katie Couric.
"I was speechless, shaking, '' Kennedy said. "I thought a decision would take a long time - I was told four to six months.''
Kennedy's usually somber voice was considerably lighter today as she said that her daughter appeared to be well thought of and well taken care of in prison.
"I saw her two weeks ago, and she's getting better. She's able to hold conversations, and yes, she was aware of the appeal."
Yates' husband, a NASA engineer who filed for divorce in July, said today he hadn't heard a ruling had been made. When informed of the reversal, Rusty Yates paused, then said, "It's good news.''
