Martha's being chraged with crimes relating to "lying" and "covering up" crimes which they (the government) are otherwise unable to charge her with.

The way such innocuous, seemingly best intentioned crimes are legislated it would be almost impossible for a jury to aquit her if the government has any legal skill what so ever.

Be advised that the single most useful tool in law enforcement's arsenal is deception, and that they have actually suceeded in making it a crime for you to employ this tactic, while using it themselves routinely. End result...whether they are able to gather enough evidence to prove you committed a crime or not...you will be charged with something, and probably convicted.

If anything screams for jury nullification it is 'charges' like this, trumped up entrapment.

I am quite confident she will be convicted of something, which will not at all reflect the crime she ~probably~ committed, AND she will NOT DO a single day in prison.
