What Piers did was not really like a real cross examination at all. He kept touching upon things she’d lied about then basically just moving on, apart from odd things that don’t really matter at all for her case such as her degree classification. In a real cross they are going to go for her, especially American attorneys. It would be very easy to do anyway IMO as she’s a prolific liar, she lied several times in that interview. Catch her in one lie with a soft ‘friend’ approach and keep pushing and she would unravel, I’d bet. Also, I imagine all her facebook posts will come up somehow and she will have likely made some hateful comment about some demographic on the jury…juries are inherently risky, we don’t know how or why they reach decisions so you don’t want to put someone like her in front of one tbh, it will be wild if it goes to trial.
Not sure if allowed to link here but if anyone takes a look at the Reddit sub for this show there’s a link to some posts by someone who has blogged about their experience with her, it seems like she may well have either a criminal conviction and/or a history with psychiatric services which all changes things somewhat.
I find it odd they're showing the similarities between them by using a photo of her taken after the series dropped.
Also weird given she was so offended by being compared to Jess, saying Jess is much bigger/uglier than her
