Jury won’t hear Nowak interview
Diapers, latex gloves and other items found in an ex-astronaut’s car can be used as evidence when the woman accused of driving 1,000 miles to confront a romantic rival goes to trial, an appeals court ruled Friday. But the three-judge panel said that Lisa Nowak’s six-hour police interview after her 2007 arrest cannot be used.
Nowak has pleaded not guilty to attempted kidnapping, battery and burglary with assault. She is accused of trying to abduct Air Force Capt. Colleen Shipman from the Orlando International Airport.
