This legal document argues that a defendant's level of sophistication is an irrelevant and unfair metric for determining the reasonableness of their reliance on legal advice or prosecutorial decisions. It uses the case of Cosby, who, despite his wealth and media savvy, reasonably relied on District Attorney Castor's public promise not to prosecute, which resulted in Cosby providing self-incriminating testimony. The document asserts that Castor made this decision knowing it would induce Cosby's reliance.
