It says she was instructed on the safety measures to take, but not "why." Gives strong "you don't tell me what to do" energy.
Nah bro, more likely it's 'well you didn't say it could seriously injure or kill me so it's probably not important to listen to.'
This is coincidentally also the framework for how adolescent males navigate the world.
Asking why you have to do something is smart in every case. I ask why I'm asking to do something all the time. If it's not a valid reason why I should be doing something, I just don't do it. And if somebody won't tell you why you're supposed to be doing something and that's a giant red flag. So somebody asks you why just tell him
Let it play out in court. If she's the only one that got injured, and it's because she intentionally did something wrong, then the court will take that into account.
If people are regularly injured, and she's just the worst case, and it's a common problem, then the court will take that into account too.
The media only cares about clicks, so you can't trust their filter to be fair to the real story.
