Who was the real Betty Broderick from Dirty John Season 2?

evoke.ie:

fired five shots: one hit a bedside table, another the wall and three struck the sleeping couple (two hit Linda and one hit Dan).Betty had to stand trial for the murders twice as the first jury were deadlocked and couldn’t come to an agreement over her guilt or innocence.Her defence was that the murders weren’t premeditated and that she was driven to the edge by abuse and gaslighting at Dan’s hands.The prosecution painted her as a calculated murderer who knew what she was doing when she entered Dan’s house that night.She was convicted of second-degree murder in 1991 and sentenced to 32 years to life in prison.

She will have served the minimum sentence by December 2023.Something that the series didn’t depict is that Betty appealed her.
