I wonder if Kim Glory would have issued a public apology if she hadn't appeared on the news or TV

Would she have issued a public apology like this?
The retaliatory driving incident happened back in May, and it seems the police and prosecution
had already closed the case with a "no charges" decision.
But only after the taxi driver who was a victim of the retaliatory driving brought it to public attention
via the 8 o'clock news and social media, did an apology finally get posted.
They say it's Kim Glory, a former national team goalkeeper.
Her driving has been frequently shown on variety shows,
along with her Mercedes G-Class and her driving habits...
It feels like powerless people cannot receive protection from the law,
and only social media or the press can protect them.
