him why because he's mixed up with a lot

of swampers down

you happen to remember your first case

you remember the responsibility you felt

for your client well your son feels the

same way and instead of helping him

you're condemning him but you don't

understand mrs. Parker if Wayne takes

this case I won't be allowed to sit on

the bench oh so that's it

so for purely selfish reasons you'll Rob

your son of his great opportunity and

prevent his defending this poor boy Oh

fiddlesticks he doesn't care anything

about the boy he's taken that case

because he's interested in that girl

then who is she a common ordinary

dancing girl you don't know anything

about this girl but I do and you're

acting like a narrow-minded bigoted old

fossil and you aren't fit to be a judge

they're no good

there is your precedent State vs

Williams here up on that

when you call on you see if you can't

say something to help Chris appears to

me like young sellers ain't doing very

much for ya what did you put in a good

word burn when you're up there hmm your

act like you're scared to death I love

when they get you on that witness stand

you find out how thin your blood is you

see

the case of state versus Christopher

kostow now resume miss Lorna Mears take

the stand please

how long have you known the defendant

about two years thank you a lot of him

don't you yes and he thinks a lot of you

doesn't he

I think so you and he were together

quite often Whiterun yes all alone yes

and you talked to him about dead course

not always but usually yeah he told you

that he hated dead person sometimes

several times yes

then he said that he was going to kill

dead coursed answer that question

you heard him threaten to kill Jeff

Carson didn't you yes why doesn't the

young fool object he's putting answers

into the mouths of the witness be

patient where was this

once after he'd been beaten for cutting

his hand meeting because mr. Carson said

he did it on purpose to get out of work

I'm wounded

let it remain one of your questions when

was the last time you heard him threaten

to kill his master at mr. Nathan's was

that the occasion referred to by mr.

mrs. Nathan yes sir and did he say that

he would kill mr. Carson in order to

prevent his marriage to you yes and did

you suggest that he should wait until

after your marriage to the rich mr.

Carson don't answer he hasn't set enough

to see the purchase with him

reframe that question

was there anything said at the time

about waiting until after you're married

no and did you plan such a crime no

there was no understanding between you

hate she's already answered no I must

warn you against any further attempt to

confuse this witness mr. Sellars

have you made any preparation for your

case yes your honor ah why don't he do

something I don't think he knows very

much what was the defendants objections

to your marrying mr. Corson well he

hated him

and he was afraid he'd beat me - and did

you have the same hatred and fear of him

yes I was afraid then why did you want

to marry well I could see that I could

get away from poverty and happen oh sure

you were marrying him for money and you

saw your opportunity for escape through

this boy

you're whipped

miss mayor if you'll answer my question

simply and calmly I won't keep you long

I know you must be tired after the

unwarranted and disgusting grilling to

which you have been subjected Turner I

take exception to counsels inference

going wait wait to which you have been

subjected by this shyster that plane to

you my Union

I find you both for contempt of court

I apologize road I apologize if you had

any objections to action or counsel you

had plenty of opportunity to end it will

see with witness

what was your I dressed in Chris well

you see I wanted to help him I wanted to

teach him to read and write because I

think books make ugly things seem more

beautiful did you hate the deceased

Carson I never let myself hate anyone

you see well it's not good date in a

whole world isn't there someone that you

have hated

oh I can't say you testify that if

you're married you could escape poverty

who told you that oh please well is the

one who influenced you the one that you

hate was it Causton who promised you

relief from poverty well not to me to

whom to me I made her do it I lied about

a Paul I told her I'm or drownded

herself all lines it's amazing it's me

I'm the one that's a criminal not that

poor boy who had the courage to try and

favor

Laurie you gotta and then what happened

gonna beat you with an inch of your life

then he jammed the butt of the gun down

against the crime stone it exploded

killed him that's all when your finger

was on the trigger of that gun would you

swear that you didn't press it yes sir

and when the gun was seized from you

would you say that your finger didn't

press the trigger yes sir you say that

too after mr. Corson was in possession

of that gun he told you he was going to

beat you

yes sir he said that did needs to come

no sir are you sure of that

yes sir you didn't see the hammer that

construct on the grindstone

no sir but I'm master and you don't know

how that gun was discharged dude

no sir but it could have been discharged

when he pulled it got away from you

that's all

now I have this

but here on a submission I'll ask the

defendant to reenact what actually

happened I show this gun you recognize

it

yes that's the gun I have which Hamill

was that one and this is a trigger

that explodes the shell on that bow yes

and this is the trigger that your finger

was on yes sir stand up take the gun

pointed at me exactly as you did a dead

cause that's the way it was

yes sir open it up

I'll pull the trigger mr. sellers you

got a loaded shell in there pull the

trigger no sir what that's all any

questions

Oh quick witness excused a debate will

you take the stand

do you recognize this gun yes dude how

long has it been in your possession well

ever since I took it away from the boy

at the scene of the shooting did you

make any alterations and the mechanism

of the gun no it didn't

has anyone tampered with it well I

should say not

that's all merchants okay witness

excused

gentlemen upon examining this gun when

it was first introduced as evidence I

made a discovery which my learned

opponent had overlooked this gun could

not have been discharged by use of the

trigger of either trigger there are no

springs in the gun therefore it must

have been discharged exactly as my

client has testified I see the guns me

defense rests

you know site of the evidence already

presented I feel that further

instruction by me is unnecessary

the jury will therefore retire and

decide their verdict

we find the defendants not guilty

[Applause]

say what I did oh wait it's alright

everything's okay what I'll go I got so

much to say to you I'll be back I'll be

back soon hey why didn't you introduce

Neptune and evidence before it's all
