Don't think I heard of this defense before but I am no legal expert. Just sounds like a way to pass the buck to someone else

She took Billions from people on the lies she telling and now she saying her boyfriend made her do it. Sounds like some Bull

That's the kind of creative shit you can get when you can afford expensive legal representation.

Could well work for her, too.
Poor, poor women. Men are bad and everything is their fault.
 
This woman got off in Canada after claiming her husband abused her. Clearly this is a woman in fear as she asks the hitman to off her husband.

 
Oh, good old accountability is in very short supply............. I'm a victim culture is here to stay.........
 
There's a Dr. Mindy Mechanic? Is she not a car doctor because that would be a crime against god, like how Davey Chairlegs HAD to be a mafia buttonman.
 
It's an affirmative defense; it the defense can prove it, let them.
 
Great docu on this charlatan. Mad respect for duping so many tho
