Mock Trial Scrimmage 12/11/10


The scrimmage was AMAZINGLY fun!!! The thing about portraying a witness is you actually BECOME the person. Like seriously, even though some of Dr. Crane's conclusions are outlandishly improbable, I still find myself getting offended when people insult them. So I only went in the first trial, and the cross attorney was super b*tchy and argumentative, but I think I held my ground. I was bailiff for the second trial, so no actual testifying, but I got to watch! It was really fun. =]


Highlights/Memories of the Day

First Trial:
1) The prosecution impeached their own witness... Indirectly, but still...
2) Draper wore this super low cut, purple long-sleeve top and stilettos. It was like, "Uh, what?"
3) "Exception, Your Honor... Uh... No exception, Your Honor."
4) The judge wouldn't let me use the exhibit! D=
5) My cross attorney was amazingly argumentative; go Marnie for defending me and objecting!
6) "The wound was situated 2 inches above and behind Angel's left ear, correct?"
"That is correct."
"And it was a quarter inch deep?"
"At its deepest point, yes."
"And does the brick found match these dimensions?"
"...(uh what?)"
7) Nick forgot where he worked... xP
8) Nick's answers on cross were ah-mazing!

Second Trial:
1) "It doesn't matter what hand the assailant used!"
2) Angel Sterling tried to cry on stand... It didn't go well...
3) The clerk was taking pictures while timing. It was weird...

In any case, it was awesome! =]
