This week I chose the prompt '(insert name here)'s/his/her get-up-and-go got up and went.'
Here is a sneak peek at what you'll find in chapter 9:
The judge placed
a memory card into his viewer and reviewed all of the facts regarding the case
in front of him. Privately, the judge thought with all the improvements to the criminal justice system, the
old-fashioned court system is still the most effective way to deal with
criminals. “Will the prosecuting attorney please make her opening remarks?”
“Thank you, Your
Honor. Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, my client, Mr. Ethan Evans was the
victim of a hit-and-run. He suffered a broken back, fractured pelvis, multiple
trauma injuries and a hole cut into his skull. In addition we have irrefutable
evidence that my client was raped multiple times and infected with the HIV
virus by the defendant. I intend to prove beyond a shadow of a doubt that the
defendant is guilty of all charges and specifications. I am confident that you
will as well, dispensing justice for my client. Thank you.”
“Objection! Irrelevant My client has
already confessed to the hit-and-run.”
“Moves to
motivation, Your Honor.”
“Overruled.” The
judge declared. “Please proceed with your opening statement.”
“Thank you, Your
Honor.
