You mean if she could convince the jury that this was true? Yes, she would get a much lighter sentence; in fact, I'm not sure she's even charged with anything she could get convicted of if those were the facts.
This is probably what scares me most about the case. In the letter that JB sent to the pros. before Caylee was found, he hinted at an "accident." I think that letter maybe the key to the defense theory, and if so IMO it could present a problem.
