first thing any lawyer would tell about something like this -- when you are a suspect in a criminal case and at risk for being charged, under no circumstances do you tell the police anything other than your name.
tell them you want a lawyer and your lawyer will answer all their questions. which of course he won't.
the less you tell the cops, the harder cops/prosecutors have to work to make a case against you. cops/prosecutors are lazy. they'd rather go after some moron who admitted everything.
if all the cops had was a library sign-in log and a video that looked to have been shot inside the library, it's unlikely they'd be moving forward with a prosecution.
convicting her on a misdemeanor public indecency charge would take way too much work. no prosecutor would justify to his bosses putting that much effort into the case. too many real bad guys out there.
