The Bold And The Beautiful Spoilers: Shocking End To Sheila’s Trial, Will She Skate Again?

The Bold and The Beautiful spoilers and rumors tease a shocking end to Sheila Carter’s (Kimberlin Brown) trial. Against all odds, will she skate again, or will Judge Evan Scott (Michael Corbett) give her the max, or worse?

The Bold And The Beautiful Spoilers: Could The FBI Sting Be Considered Entrapment?

Sheila was led on by Bill Spencer (Don Diamont) and fake-romanced for literally months before the walls closed in on her and she found out she’d been had. She even endangered Deacon Sharpe (Sean Kanan) by calling and going to see him, but he got a pass for cooperating with the authorities in the aftermath.

Sheila’s defense lawyer, even though a public defender, wants to give Sheila a proper defense-and considers whether the way the sting was performed could be considered entrapment.

Even though undercover detectives and spies do things like this every day, as well as FBI, DEA, and CIA agents, they don’t usually employ civilians except as snitches. In no way could Bill Spencer be considered a Federal or even a local police operative or agent-the public defender considers if the case could be thrown out on that technicality.

B & B Spoilers: The Judge Is Known As A Hanging Judge

Sheila and her defense attorney have their work cut out for them, because Judge Scott is known as a hanging judge-even though corporal punishment isn’t by hanging. It’s a figure of speech for a judge who is tough on crime and tougher on punishment-and very light on leniency and compassion for the defendant.

The death penalty is on the table since at least one murder confession was caught on camera and the implication of another, even though there were no witnesses or hard evidence. That is why the FBI, Ridge Forrester (Thorsten Kaye) and Bill went about it like they did, as an undercover sting-but it comes back to Bill being a mere civilian.

Bill wasn’t even deputized by the LAPD, the whole thing being done to catch Sheila like a rat in a trap-and that’s what her defense is.

The Bold And The Beautiful Spoilers: Down To The Wire

The trial has begun and it’s down to the wire for Sheila and her defense attorney-who’s defending her on the basis of entrapment, pointing out Bill is a civilian.

At the best, the prosecutor can only call Bill an FBI informant, but that doesn’t authorize him to operate like an undercover agent. Sheila’s attorney reminds her that even with that argument, it’s still up to the jury and then for the judge to decide.

It will either make sense to them or it will not, if there had been any way to get it thrown out before court they would have already done so. But the argument of entrapment with the proof they have that Bill is a mere civilian and can only be considered an informant is a strong one-it could go either way.
