Order The judgment of conviction is reversed, and the case will be remanded with instructions to enter a judgment of acquittal. An opinion will be issued in due course. The time to file a petition for rehearing is extended until 14 days after the court issues its opinion. This extension of time also means that the mandate will be deferred. But Thompson is entitled to immediate release from prison, on her own recognizance.
