If the defense actually makes this argument I'd go with it. But for now it just sounds like grass knoll distraction. I don't think public sentiment is going to be a factor in the trial. It will be an absolute kangaroo court even if he was guilty.
So far all the defense has said is that the money was planted to deny him bail and “Not guilty” so it’s possible this is exactly what argument they’ll make. And that argument becomes ever so slightly harder to make the more the public consensus is that he did it.
