Syracuse, NY -- Victoria Afet was rolled into court again Thursday, but without a straitjacket this time.
Afet, 23, appeared briefly in a wheelchair to hear the results of a mental health exam and be formally charged with a robbery that predated the crime that has made headlines: the murder of 93-year-old Connie Tuori at Skyline Apartments, in Syracuse.
Before she was rolled in, her lawyer, Susan Carey, asked a judge to prohibit pictures of Afet in court. It’s been a constant refrain during the proceedings, and prosecutor Melinda McGunnigle has joined in Carey’s requests.
