Baby Gabriel update: Elizabeth Johnson to face 20 days in jail

• http://www.abc15.com

In court on Thursday, Elizabeth Johnson admitted to violating probation by leaving New Mexico without permission.

Johnson acknowledged in court that she traveled from her home in New Mexico to Arizona in July to visit a friend she had met in prison. She choked back tears as she said she made unwise decisions.

"I am very sorry for the stupid decisions I have made," Johnson told the judge.

Johnson will spend 20 days in jail and will have to wear an ankle monitor and provide a local address when she leaves jail.

"Ms. Johnson likes to do what she wants to do when she wants to do it, and not what the court orders her to do or the probation department orders her to do," Deputy Maricopa County Attorney Angela Andrews said.
