Would also make it easy to convince the cops that she was forced into this by her boyfriend. So she walks and another patsy goes away.

To say nothing of the roll the jury will end up making to decide if she is guilty or not.

The jury would be a different sex appeal roll.

And if there are straight women or gay men on the jury, it's not going to work and might even make their opinion of her worse.

If it works on one person it gives a hung jury. For minorish crimes a retrial is often not worth the cost/effort.
