Why is this such a big deal?

I was just playing devil's advocate. My question still stands. If a person is charged with a felony should they be allowed to travel out of the country while waiting for trial?

As for this girl, its hard to say she's innocent when she admits to what she did and that she would do it again if given the chance. I don't care one way or another about her or her cause, I'm trying to see it from a legal standpoint.

To answer your question, yes.

She has followed all stipulations placed on her when she was charged.  The prosecution in this case had/have no problem with her request to leave her home state and/or the country.  The additional charges came after a judges ruling and don't affect that ruling.  She is still innocent of all charges until proven guilty.
