Just for simplicity in future questions, is Eli male? Is Christy female? Are both adult humans? (if any pronouns are off in the following, answer as if they were correct)
Did Christy help with the criminal act?
Did she know at the time that she was helping with a criminal act?
When she did whatever it was that led to Eli getting caught, did she do it for the purpose of getting Eli caught?
Was it something that she would have done even if the criminal act hadn’t occurred?
Does “He wouldn’t have been caught” mean that nobody otherwise knew about the crime at all?
Or did people know there was a crime, but not know Eli was the criminal?
Or did they know he was the criminal, and “caught” means he was actually apprehended because of something Christy did?
Is Christy a religious organization? Like… a Christ-y one?
Yes, he bought the original painting and made a copy, which he sold on his own. He then took the original to an Sotheby’s and they sold it(no problem). The PROBLEM is that his copy also came up for sale at Christies across the street at the same time.
