** Variant when Homer and Bart (inadverdently) framed Groundskeeper Willie for carjacking. The guilt trip is piled high at his sham trial, until Bart and Homer confess to losing the car to a scammer. Turns out everyone else was in on the sham trial. Well, almost everyone.

Added DiffLines:

* ''Series/LawAndOrder'' had [=McCoy=] do this after his assistant Borgia was murdered. [=McCoy=] had the villains arrested and put through a fake trial in which [=McCoy=] got a guy to present perjured evidence; the idea was that the villains would be so rattled by the trial they would screw up and reveal evidence that they had committed other murders (which Borgia had been investigating them for); once they did that, [=McCoy=] would dismiss the fake trial and arrest them for reveal. However, a judge shut everything down when the villains began to plan to simply murder the perjuring witness.

Added DiffLines:

* ''Series/{{Bones}}'': They once set up a fake crime scene with the signatures of SerialKiller Howard Epps in an attempt to draw him out (somehow....). Epps somehow found out about it and replaced their cadaver with the ally who was setting up the scene. Brennan, never known for her acting skills, is going through the motions of describing the body at the crime scene [[OhCrap when she recognizes that physical characteristics don't match up.]]
