Trojan Horse defence failed in two cases
This defence has been entertained in two cases in Britain. The accused was acquitted in one of those cases, wrongly hailed as a victory by the self-styled computer expert who proposed the Trojan defence.
The prosecution withdrew the case because the history of the second-hand computer was impossible to verify: exclusive access to it by the accused could not be proven and the specific images on the computer could not be reliably linked with other prosecution evidence of internet activity.
