A kid his daughter's age would never be able to say "infarction", let alone "myocardial". Why can't you women apply a little logic?

Since we're all throwing unwanted opinions around
like a monkey throws faeces, I will weigh in to say that the chances of you getting caught out and the absolute dead certainty that it will completely exonerate your ex's rabid whinging at the courts will probably make it not worth the money.

You are, however, only a man on the internet; so do what you want.

Sorry as a newbie to butt in but
I once knew someone who ended up inside for 7 years thanks to what I think you might be considering doing.

There's a reason the money is so good - the risks. Also the risk of being a patsy to get the police a conviction and keep them off the back of Mr Big.
