Any time some one accused of a crime uses the "Doom Defense" (ie, scapegoats a game, tv show, or movie), they are automatically convicted as guilty.

A lower court ruling in January had thrown out the convictions because of erroneous testimony that prosecutors used to suggest that Yates had gotten the idea for the killings from an episode of the television show “Law & Order.”

TV doesnt influence people that much.anyone who got the idea to kill their family from tv is that crazy that they would have killed them anyway,just in a different way.
