younggunz4life, OldMarksman and Frank Ettin make some very good points - which should come as no surprise to you or me.

Now, would I as potential juror convict the woman? No... but that might require deliberate jury nullification on my part, because Washington law might call for a guilty verdict were charges to be pressed.

Counting on jury nullification is not a strategy I would recommend.
