It’s certainly her right to withhold that information, but it leaves a hole in the published story that makes it much harder to assess whether her description of what happened is likely true.
Right now, I’d say it’s about a 6 on a plausibility scale of 0-10. With the relevant details, she could maybe boost that to an 8… or drop it to a 4.
