    As a defense attorney I would’ve immediately declared my client mentally disabled and listed the search history as proof.

          That would almost be as bad as writing a six page letter detailing all of your attempted witness tampering and accidentally having it found in your jail cell.

          Which is a thing she did.

          It could only be worse if that letter included instructions to make threats against someone’s children.

          Oh. It did.

          Look up the “Walk the dog” letter. It is one of the most unbelievably damning pieces of evidence you will ever see. The prosecution literally built their entire closing argument around it because it’s so bad that they can just discard the rest of their case and still win on that alone.

        Lmao I followed this trial start to finish but mainly listened to it in the background podcast-style so I didn’t see most of the closing slides. Didn’t realize how many typos were in those searches haha.
