September 30, 2006 (Press Release) --
NEW YORK -- Anybody who believes Nancy Grace was chastened by a young mother's suicide following their tough television encounter doesn't know Nancy Grace.
The prime-time prosecutor continues to focus nearly full-time on Melinda Duckett, piling up evidence to point to the Florida woman's guilt in the disappearance of her 2-year-old son, Trenton, all with the support of her bosses at CNN Headline News.
The case points a spotlight on the hard-charging Grace, who has quickly joined Bill O'Reilly and Keith Olbermann among the most polarizing personalities in cable news.
''I remain dedicated to the ongoing fight for crime victims everywhere,'' Grace said in a statement. ''Right now, our focus is on helping find baby Trenton Duckett safe and sound, and we will pursue the case until there is a resolution.''
Melinda Duckett, named Thursday as the primary suspect in her son's disappearance, shot herself on Sept. 8, a day after taping the interview. Grace questioned her about what she was doing on the day Trenton disappeared, pounding her desk and asking: ''Where were you? Why aren't you telling us where you were that day?''
While Duckett's ex-husband is among the people who say Grace shouldn't shoulder any blame in the suicide, questions were raised about CNN Headline News' sensitivity in airing the interview after knowing Duckett had killed herself.
''I don't fault Nancy Grace for asking the questions,'' said MSNBC host Joe Scarborough. ''That's her job. That's her shtick. She's an entertainer. The problem is what happened afterward. She's gone on a personal jihad against this woman. At what point does CNN step in and say, 'Enough's enough'?''
