A judge granted a motion on Friday allowing the Connecticut woman accused of holding her stepson captive for over two decades to access his alias, address and medical records, according to her attorney and NBC Connecticut.
Kimberly Sullivan appeared in Waterbury court on Friday to request the information, which her attorneys argued she has a constitutional right to access.
Sullivan was arrested and arraigned in March on charges of kidnapping, assault, unlawful restraint and other crimes in connection with her stepson's alleged captivity. She is out on bond, which was set at $300,000, and has pleaded not guilty.
On Friday, a judge granted the defense’s motion to give Sullivan access to her stepson’s alias and address. The judge also granted their motion to preclude the stepson’s attorney from addressing the court about anything other than the plea and sentencing, according to Sullivan’s attorney, Ioannis Kaloidis.
Kaloidis told NBC News that the ruling granting his client access to information about the alleged victim “was the only logical conclusion to reach.”
