Trial of Ian: Closing Arguments


 * [[File:toi JudgeBot.jpg]] The defense may begin its closing statement.

Male and female humanoids of the jury. It is quite apparent that the prosecution has no case here.

All of the evidence that has been recorded into the court record database has been circumstantial. The prosecution has a tape of the defendant at the crime scene, but nowhere in that tape does it show the defendant actually doing anything wrong.

The prosecution has a bottle of pills that has the defendant's fingerprint on it. This only shows that the defendant was there. And we know why he was there. He was there simply to save the woman he loves FROM the fire.

The prosecution claims that the defendant is an evil, deceiving humanoid. But all that I observe of the defendant shows that he is merely a humanoid searching for *clang clang* ... love.

The defendant was simply "in the wrong place at the wrong time" to be accused for this crime. We all know that Ian is not responsible for this act. Let's not prolong his suffering any further. Hasn't he been through enough?

Ladies and Gentlemen of the jury.

The defense would have you believe that the defendant, Ian, is a harmless individual. But we've shown you evidence that this is, in fact, not the case at all.

We had numerous witnesses, even witnesses called by the defense, admit that Ian was jealous of the Gambino family, especially with Gino Gambino.

We have witnesses testifying to Ian's violent nature. Ian ASSAULTED a man who was just doing his job.

We have irrefutable evidence of Ian fleeing the scene of the crime and evidence that Ian was where he wasn't supposed to be that night.

We have evidence that Ian had forethought that something bad was going to happen at the mansion that night, a warning to the woman he loves.

Ian HIMSELF admitted that he would do ANYTHING for this "love." I call it jealousy. And we've seen it time and time again. Jealousy breeds acts of violence. The answer is clear. Do NOT let Ian get away with this heinous crime. You must convict Ian.
