Last Week In Court

It has been a while since I have posted something but I have been extremely busy in court. Last week I tried an attempted armed robbery against one of the best (if not the best) criminal defense lawyer in the city. I lost, but I had no evidence that would have tipped the verdict in my favor. I used what I had of course and my victim was excellent on the stand. I have to blame the police because they really did a good job messing up the case for my victim. I received kudos from the defense lawyer, the judge, the victim and her family and shockingly enough, the defendant and his family. They were so impressed with my performance they inquired as to how long I have been a prosecutor. I had fun with the case and I learned a lot. I guess that was the important thing. I do wish I could have done more however. Well, on to the next case I suppose. I am adjusting really well to my apartment and my new neighbors. Its very quiet in the complex overall and it might be cold enough tonight for me to light my fireplace. Maybe I will invite my friend over just to experience the whole "sexy fireplace scene" thing . :-) I have a writ that I need to work on tonight more than anything else. I know the judge will deny my motion for continuance, so I will just writ him. Life is good when you can appeal to a higher court. I am awaiting DNA results for my rape case and I want to cover all of my bases. My junior asked me the other day if I felt bad sending people to jail. I said hell no. I multiple billed someone last week and his sentence went from 2 years to 20. Too bad so sad he can kiss my ass. People shouldn't point guns at other people and demand what doesn't belong to them.
