A twist on prosecuting a Self-Defense claim in my Grand Canyon State (beginning in 2006):
"The 2006 law shifted the burden of proof in cases where people charged with a crime are claiming self-defense.
The new law says prosecutors must prove beyond a reasonable doubt that a self-defense claim was unfounded.
The old law made defendants prove that they acted to protect themselves."
She's got nothing to lose by taking the stand.
