Clearly she had become more unsure as to the situation.

Some people aren't very good at reading a situation even when it's right there... it was pretty obvious that Hazel was starting to get uncomfortable with it before Big Brother intervened. A lot of people (on this forum and in the general public) don't seem to be able to identify how a person is feeling unless they're screaming and blustering about it. There was definitely a subtle - but clear - change in how she was reacting to the situation.
Either that or people just let their bias cloud their judgement in cases like this.
It's one of the things that really bothers me about "trial by jury" in court... people are so full of prejudice and the "average person" really isn't qualified to be judging things like this. As is evident from people's reactions to the Daley situation.
Either she's an evil homewrecking slut who was asking for it / twisted it all to suit her... or he's some sort of aggressive sexual predator who planned to hurt her. The reality is that neither of these things are true. He took a game too far and lost control of himself, she wasn't prepared for it to go as far as it did and got scared and then was honest about that when asked.
I don't think she expected either of them to be kicked out and I certainly don't think she twisted anything so that he would "take the fall"... in fact, to me, it seems like Big Brother's decision had very little to do with what Hazel said in the diary room. It was mainly the aggressive language he was using and the potential for it to upset people who might be watching - particularly, victims of sexual aggression or domestic abuse.
