 Conditioned?
 Look, this had been going on for years, and sure, maybe there was some
 inner part of her that had need to continue while another part rejected
 it, yet, this is an adult woman we're talking about here, mentally
 competent, who did recognize the problem and should have sought help and
 carried through with it, and if necessary, taken the sick bastard to court!
 She didn't. She murdered. She was guilty beyond all reasonable doubt.
 She should have fried. Next case.
 ZED!
