The Judge paused again. He knew that the prints could make or break this case right there right now. It was time to see how far they could go before he had to pass judgment .

"I have two things I want clear: first, Mr. Ercatore, I want those prints immediately after they have been identified, is that understood? As long as there is no other convincing evidence, I cannot in good conscience call a verdit with things hanging the way they are.
"Secondly, if the defense thinks there is something worth-while to be found by digging into this testimony, then fine, go ahead. BUT!" The Judged pauses here. "But, you only have one final chance to find anything. If you can't, we will move on. Is that understood?"

"Yes, Your Honor," said Xero. Well, at least cross-examining the detective proved quite useful... now to scan for anything else. If I merely press again, the Judge will end it!

After hearing the entire testimony again, he said, "The Defense would like to move on. We believe that the information about the unidentified prints on the scope, once identified, will become important later on in the trial."

((OOC: Personally, I got a bit confused when cross-examining as it is. :P It seemed to miss a few things, but I guess motive sometimes takes place later on in the trial. Without a cue, I can't question it.))

((OOC: Sorry, Xero, It's a bit confusing to begin with. Just to let you know, as the Judge, I will start the cross-examination periods and testimonies. If you or anybody has any questions, don't hesitate to PM me. If I don't know a person's problems, I can't help. As for the Cross Examining, all you need to do is dig until you can't dig anymore, and then dig one last time! You and Wanton did good. Now back to being impartial...))

"Very well then." The Judge focuses upon the witness now. "Mr. Ercatore, is there anything else you have to testify?"

Rick pondered the question a moment. "...Well," he started. "I still got to tell the report about the victim, right? Like, how the crime took place, and all that?"

((OOC: That'd be best. Remember, it was found next to the window, not the bedroom. I'll send you the "you know what" with the info on it. Wait until I send it to you before continuing with the testimony.))

"Then while we wait for the crime analysis teams to determine whose prints are on the scope, let us hear about what occurred. If you wouldn't mind testifying again, then please begin when ready."

"A'right, here goes," he said as he began his testimony.

Image

"Ok, so, Cymric and Mr. Victim had both been in Cymric's apartment, havin' some sorta discussion about who-knows-what, eh?

"A while later, Pauly left, and was heading across the street when he was shot, see?

"The bullet was fired through the window of Cymric's apartment, and busted a hole in the bottom left corner. And y'know how the saying goes, 'BOOM! Headshot!' He died like that *snap*.

"A short while after the shot was fired, we found Cymric fleeing the scene via the stairway that connects to each floor of the apartments, and cuffed 'im.

"We found the murder weapon, as well as the other items, near the window. After Brain calculated the trajectory angles, we figured the shot could only have come from Cymric's appartment, capisce?

"The thing is, the stuff we found at the scene was incriminating..."

"Window frame?" Asked the detective. "You think you could have a clear shot at someone if you were shooting through the frame? Fuhgeddaboudit! Naw, the shot busted a hole through the window."

(Ok, ok, I'm here. I thought the recipt was already submitted, which is why I hadn't answered.)

"The recipt?" started Rick. "Yeah, I got it right here."

Recipt submitted as evidence.
Receipt for custom scope from an unknown company, "G.A.T.O. Corp.". No determinable fingerprints.

"G.A.T.O. Corporation..." Xero read aloud. He wondered what G.A.T.O. was, but knew not to ask since the prosecution would call 'irrelevancy' on it.

"The bullet was fired through the window of Cymric's apartment, and busted a hole in the bottom left corner. And y'know how the saying goes, 'BOOM! Headshot!' He died like that *snap*.

:holdit:

"So you said earlier it busted a hole in the window... my question is, why wouldn't he have simply opened the window before firing? It would have obviously put more evidence against him if he didn't... even though he didn't."

Ricky was watching the trial carefully listening the the two sides argue. 'Erm... I hope he can do it... I hope...' He thought to himself as he noticed them say something about G.A.T.O Corp. 'Huh... Whats G.A.T.O Corp. have to do with me murdering... Oh right... the gun...' He thought to himself, slightly irratated that he brought up the name, he had had some bad relations with that company.

An inquisitive look came over Rick's face. "So the killer didn't open the window. So what? I dunno why these guys do what they do. The fact is we found the bullet hole in the window, capisce? Alls I can do is speculate. But..." He turned his head away."

"Well," started the detective. "Like I said before, the stuff at the scene was incriminating. Real incriminating.
"I got this pic' of the crimescene here," he said as he nodded the bailiff over to take the overhead.
Image
"As you can see," Rick began again, "the stuff was just left scattered around the floor. Almost as if the killer thought we couldn't do our own job."

"The court will accept this overhead view into evidence for further references."

Overhead Crime Scene accepted into evidence.

Current Items in the Court Records:
-Attorney's Badge: 'Nobody would believe I was an Attorney without this,' is inscribed in the back of it. Must be the motto.

-Ricky's "M1911A1 Colt" pistol (Murder Weapon): Fired Once. Registered to the defendant, and has the defendant's finger prints on it.

-Special Scope: Was customized to attach to the murder weapon. Prints located on it, but none can be matched. Apparently special-ordered.

-Receipt: Receipt for custom scope from an unknown company, "G.A.T.O. Corp.". No determinable fingerprints.

-Crime-scene Diagram: The picture of the crime scene from above. ((Click this LINK to view.))

Xero studied the overhead view. Of course, the items were strewn across the floor, but he noticed something else... it was minor, but perhaps it would yield him more answers...

The question caught the detective off-guard. "Eh, the chair? Well... we didn't really investigate into the chair, but, uh, if I had to guess, I'd say the killer knocked it over while fleeing the crimescene. I mean, he musta been in a big rush if he didn't have time to clean up his mess, y'know what I mean?"

Xero contemplated that response; it seemed more than plausible. But anything could have happened. "But this other chair is out too... perhaps they were sitting down while having that conversation, eh?" More and more possibilities swarmed through his mind, but he couldn't pick out which seemed the most plausible. He decided to wait for an opening.

"I guess that could've happened, but what's that gotta do with anything?" He didn't see where this line of questioning was leading to.

Xero wanted to go further in the questioning, but then saw that it would lead to more incrimination against Cymric. Though there was something lingering in his head... a quote from his father, Phoenix Wright... Don't let anything stop you from figuring out the truth... even in the darkest situation, if the defendant is really innocent, you'll find a way to prove it.

shouted Micheal, slamming his hands on his table in front of him. "I've had enough of this now, it's getting tiring. Speculation, Mr. Wright, you should know it has no place in the courtroom. If you have any other real questions to ask, ask them, otherwise, let's stop speculating."

shouted back Gray, finally getting fired up in the courtroom, his cocky demeanour disappearing. "I could care less what your stabs in the dark turn up, The courtroom doesn't have time for the defence to blindly make stories up, hoping to hit the mark, even if you do occasionally get lucky!"

"Right there!" said Micheal pointing his finger at Wright. "He said it himself, my next witness will prove that there's more to the story. So, if the judge will grant the defence's request, we can end this speculation and move unto the next witness'. Micheal smirked, and crossed his arms and stared over at Wright.

'It's about time, finally someone who's putting up a fight' thought Micheal to himself.

'This is more exciting than Law & Order' the Judge thought to himself. ((I deserve a kick for that pun. :redd: ))

"Very well, seeing as the defense has requested it and the Prosecution has supported it, I will allow the next witness to be called to the stand! Thank you for your time, Mr. Ercatore."

"Very well", Micheal nodded. "The defence will now call the defendant, a one Cymric Charteux to the stand!". Micheal's face had a look of intensity about it, he knew this would be the focal point of the trial.

Ricky was suprided. "M-me!?" He said confused, he didn't think he'd be called as a witness until later in the trial. "Alright I guess I could testify..." He said climbing into the witness's bench. "What should I testify about, Sir?" He looked at the judge, and then at Micheal. 'This is confuzzling as that test on algebra I took when I was in high school...'

"Well, considering how it was the defense who requested that you take the stand, It would only seem fit for the defense to ask."
The Judge fidgeted a bit. "Perhaps you should recall what happened to you at the time of the murder to set you on track."

"My memories a little fuzzy, after that time I spent in the detention center I really haven't put much though into it." He frowned because he realized everyone was counting on him to testify and he has a bad memery.

The Argument

:testimony:

"Well the argument started when he came by my house. He had just returned from his relatives."

"I heard him knock on the door, then he came in and we started talking."

"At first we were just having small talk but then he brought that up, And thats where it escalated."
