Imagine for a moment that everything you perceive as reality, every sensation, every thought, is nothing more than lines of code in a vast computer program. What happens when Simulation Theory is used as a criminal defense strategy, like in the cases of Tonda Lynn Ansley and Joshua Cooke?  Nicole explores this intriguing concept by delving into the philosophical foundations of Simulation Theory and drawing insights from the literary works of Philip K. Dick.
