Alright kiddies, it's time for the very first Wilder-trial. I wnat this trial to run as smoothly as possible, so first I'm gonna explain the roles a little bit.
------------

Defense Attorney: Your job is by far the most important one, as you already know. You alone have the job of proving the defendant innocent of his crime. To do this, you'll need to examine witness testimony and point out contradictions using the evidence you have available. Taking a page from Anders' book, I'll also PM the defense with information they gathered from the "investigation phase" from that day.

Defense's Aid: Your job is to help the defense attorney out in making his case. You can do this by giving him hints and clues if you feel they need it. Feel free to PM the attorney advice too, if you feel like it. It's really up to you. Please note: The defense's aid is NOT allowed to object to testimony and present evidence.

Prosecution: Okay, this is me. I'll be the one trying to make your life a living hell and your job just about impossible. I will be able to present new evidence as it reveals itself.

Judge: You have the job of presiding over the court hearings. You need to look the Defense's case and the Prosecution's case and make your judgement based on who has the stronger case in the very end. Please do not just go "lol GUILTY!" or "lol NOT GUILTY", but rather THINK about your verdict. Please keep the "Guilty until proven innocent" mentality observed in the PW world in mind.

Detective:Your job is to present an investigation report at the first trial day. Once you're needed, I'll PM you your findings and from there you'll have to testify the crime details in your own words. Your job is not the most important, but still quite vital.

Defendant: Your job is to sit there and look pretty while the events unfold. This role is optional.

Witness: Here it is, the meat of the trial. Your job is to present testimony to the court and be cross examined by the defense. Check back at the trial frequently, as you'll need to respond to pressing. If you aren't sure how to respond to the defense's question, PM me and I'll be more than happy to help you out. Each witness can expect to give 3-4 testimonies in a court day.
-----------

Trial: NS-14

Crime: Murder (duh)

Description: A math teacher at Memory High School was found dead in her classroom. Her throat was slit. The defendant, Bryce Velvet, was found at the scene of the crime covered in her blood.

Victim data: Karen Sharp; age 29: The victim was a teacher at Memory High School. Gave a quadruple detention to the defendant on the day of the murder.

Suspect data: Bryce Velvet; Age 16: The defendant is a student at Memory High School. He was failing the Math class taught by the victim and served a quadruple detention on the afternoon of the murder.

Reason for suspicion: The defendant was found at the scene of the crime shortly after the murder. In addition, his clothing was stained with the victim's blood. The defendant also had possession of the murder weapon. Witness testimony places him at the scene of the crime.

Evidence List

* Autopsy report: Karen Sharp. Murdered 3/7. Time of death: 6:03 PM. Cause of death: Loss of blood from slit throat.
* Handblade: A 12 inch long, wrist mounted sword that belonged to the defendant. Was unsheathed and in the possession of the defendant at the time of the murder. The top face is covered in the victim's blood.
* Bloody trench coat: A trenchcoat belonging to the defendant that was worn during the murder. It is stained with the victim's blood.
* Open window: A window was found left open at the time of the murder. The window leads to a fire escape.

Note: More evidence will arise as the trial progresses.

Roles:

Defense attorney: CLOSED to Waffles
Name: Vincent Shore
Age: 23
Gender: Male
Clothing: A white shirt with a deep red jacket and slacks
Bio: A recent graduate from law school, Vincent hasn't had much experience. He's usually even-headed and mild-mannered, but when things get heated, he becomes a fierce beast of defense, unrelenting in his pursuit of the truth. He currently works with his father and mentor, Alan Shore at the Shore Law Offices.


Defense assistant: CLOSED to GodotFan23
Name: Noah von Karma (no direct relation to Manny or Franny)
Age: 24
Eyes: Brown
Hair: Browner
Personality: Like a cat: Normally laid-back but fierce when angered.
Other: Considers himself friends with everyone until they REALLY piss him off. Wears a sweatervest. ALL the time.

Prosecutor (me): Garrett Hughes; age 26: A former Chemistry teacher at Memory High School. He was supposedly killed two years ago but appears to be quite well. Hughes is a calm englishman who is almost never surprised. Hughes is not nearly as vicious as other prosecutors and as such refers to himself as "a minor significant threat".

Judge: CLOSED to dompaxton

Detective: CLOSED to RonStarwind as Dick Gumshoe

Witness #1: CLOSED to Madfoot Sable Brooks; Age 23: A teacher in the classroom across the hallway. She appears to be very ditzy, but is actually quite intelligent. Sable claims to have heard the victim scream, then ran across the hall to find the defendant standing over the victim's body.

Witness #2: CLOSED to Gumshoe Morty Lipman; Age 64: The janitor at Memory High School. He is obsessed with his line of work and often uses disgusting metaphors relating to janitorial work. Was cleaning the hallway at the time of the murder. Claims to have seen the defendant murder the victim.

Witness #3: CLOSED to Teh_General Principal Slatemann; Age 57: A prim and proper man who is strict and demanding when it comes to rules and regulations. He arrived at the scene of the crime shortly after Sable Brooks arrived and shortly before the police arrived.

I have (hopefully) finished sorting out all the details of Sable and Morty's testimonies. Witnesses, check your inbox for the details and start working on writing your testimonies.

To the Defense team: Be on the lookout for information about the case such as the court record and the results of your first investigation.
