Alicia’s defense he had the easiest job. Their defense was base on lucky, jurors, prosecutors and judge making thinks easy for them
She got lucky her lawyers weren’t that good. The prosecutors took it easy on her, the judge wasn’t on her best behavior, the jurors had some sympathy for her felt like she deserved to be punished but not a life sentence , and having a separate trial saved her. If she went to trial together with her codefendants she would have gotten life imprisonment. There no way she would have been throwing her codefendants under the bus in front of them, if she did they would have started pointing their fingers at each other
