This was a search warrant issued at the time of her arrest (within less than an hour according to the article). The woman subsequently pled 'no contest' to the charges and unlocked her phone.

In short, this doesn't mean this is a settled issue - none of this has been tested in court.




Could she have refused and held in contempt for 48 hrs? After which she could no longer be held in contempt?
