You can play it online. Or you can't, because no one's written a program to do that, but someone should.

Sir, it's not an offence to let your cat eat your bacon. Okay? And we don't arrest cats, I'm very sorry.

Oh yes they have.
That's cool. Except you can't play other people online.
But in reality, playing other people might not work too well because of latency issues.
edit for more sense-making....

Happy Birthday shrift!!!
I'm msbelle-like in my procrastination this morning. I have 3 errands and then back for 3 little should-take-the-day projects and 2 may-take-the-week projects. And yet, here I am.

Well not canonically, no, but this is transformative fiction.
Michael Jackson's ex-wife is threatening to testify against him in the child molestation case unless he pays her the alimony he owes her.
Excuse me? She has information relevant to the case she was just going to keep mum about? Or she has information irrelevant to the case she's going to distract people with?
I do sympathise with the not getting the money, but come on.

Ann, that's a ferret.
ita, if any of the other lawyeristas are experts on criminal law, they may be able to confirm or correct me. But it may relate to the spousal privilege. The ex-wife may be threatening to waive the privilege.
Other lawyeristas -- how far does the spousal privilege survive divorce? IOW, does it still apply to events during the marriage?

What is even happening?
If she has knowledge that he was molesting children, and the law allows her to waive the spousal privilege, and she's in possession of something resembling a soul, she ought to waive the privilege, alimony be damned.

I can't even.
Morning, all!
Happy birthday shrift! We should all have a moment of slounge in your honour. Mine will be from approximately 2pm to approximately 4pm.
Ah, the leisurely shower and cup of tea of the still-on-vacation. I'm up and dressed and ready to go into town to meet my sister for lunch. These obligations are killing me.

Fred, I think that on a policy level, spousal privilege should survive the marriage, for issues specific to the marriage. But Evidence class was a long time ago, and someone like Bon Bon may have more insight than I do.

The evil is this way?
Spousal Privilege -- First, it applies to communications during marriage. Second, iffn I recall correctly, states vary as to whether the privilege belongs to the defendant-spouse, the testifying-spouse or both. (The party it belongs to is the one which can waive it.) Also, it is waivable in certain situations by operation of law -- usually when one spouse is suing the other.
I'll see if I can find anything on California law.
