(2) The victim may present the statement in writing before the sentencing proceeding or orally under oath at the sentencing proceeding.
(3) The defendant is required to physically remain in the courtroom during the presentation of any victim impact statement, unless the court determines that the defendant is behaving in a disruptive manner or in a manner that presents a threat to the safety of any person present in the courtroom.
