The article said that too. Is she saying she spent 62 days in jail because she'd rather not repeat herself? That seems extremely odd if true.

Because she is refusing to testify, and it is producing significant public backlash, and she was released eventually anyway.
Seems like it worked out fine for Chelsea.
