In the 1994 movie "The Last Seduction," a femme fatale coaxes her lover into killing her husband for money. Prosecutors say a beautiful stripper obsessed with the film followed the script to its murderous end.

1994年的电影《最后的诱惑》中,一个女人为了钱哄骗她的情人杀死了她的丈夫。检察官们说一个漂亮的脱衣舞女迷上了这部电影,仿效剧本实施了她的计划直到最后的谋杀。

Mechele Linehan, 34, is on trial on charges she masterminded the decade-old slaying of her fiance in hopes of collecting $1 million in insurance.

Mechele Linehan,34岁,被控十年前策划杀害未婚夫图谋百万保险金。

Life and art were so similar, prosecutors say, that they even sought, unsuccessfully, to have the movie shown to the jury.

案情和电影如此相似,以至于检察官们说他们甚至想把这部电影放给陪审团看,但是没有成功。

Mechele Linehan

这个性、贪婪和操控交错在一起的案子,震惊了太平洋西北部地区,从阿拉斯加到华盛顿州。在案件调查组来传唤她之前,Linehan已经在华盛顿州为自己安排了新的人生——一个大学毕业生,医生的妻子,一个郊区足球队队员的妈妈。

"If it was not for Mechele Linehan, Kent Leppink would be alive today because she set the stage and at least wrote the ending," prosecutor Pat Gullufsen told the jury in his opening statement. "All she needed was someone to do the dirty work ... someone to pull the trigger."

“如果不是因为Mechele Linehan,Kent Leppink至今还活着,她搭好了舞台并写出了最后的结局,”检察官Pat Gullufsen在开庭陈词中这样说,“她需要的就是有人来做这件肮脏的事情,一个扣动扳机的人。”

That person, the prosecutor said, was John Carlin III, another fiance of Linehan's. Carlin was convicted in April of murdering Leppink.

那个人,检察官说,就是John Carlin III,他是Linehan的另一个未婚夫,他因为谋杀Leppink已于四月定罪。

小编:这年头,拍个电影电视剧什么的也得考虑社会影响了。之前就听说有《越狱》的忠实粉丝对剧中提到的理论进行了实地检验。不过这只是一群人在一起玩玩,不是什么大奸大恶的事情。但是犯罪就不同了。《最后的诱惑》最后以一场暴力结局,而Linehan告诉了我们这部电影在真实人生中的结局。
