Does anyone remember how a year or two ago, there was a real life murder case in which a parrot was cross-examined, like in case 1-4? Well it's happened again!

This time, it's Case 6-4 that has had something similar happen for real. Uendo Toneido had split personalities, and testified as part of the case. In the real life case, an Australian woman testified against her father, who sexually abused her when she was a child, and the trauma caused her to develop Dissociative Identity Disorder as a coping mechanism. She rationalised the abuse as happening to one of her split personalities. It's the first case in Australia where testimony from a person with multiple personalities has secured a conviction.
