    and she kept her ATM receipt for 6 years? Hmmm. It proves nothing, her boyfreind could have used her PIN to withdraw money, it in no way proves she was there.

    I think banks have records of ATM transactions going back six years; a paper receipt should not be needed. She might or might not need to prove she was there to establish reasonable doubt; this is not as simple as you are saying.
