Funny. Knowing her history, my razor pointed toward a proven lack of scruples.

The outcome is what matters in this case, far more than scruples. Presuming she wants to minimise her penalty, she will pay whatever it costs to make that happen.
If she's not paying, it must surely be because she's broke, rather than out of some perverse thrill of screwing people over and also getting a more severe penalty.

Precisely. The "rational" time to screw the lawyers is once the trial is over, not before.
* Not actually rational because life is a multi-round game.
Occam's razor compels us to presume she's just broke.
