Stalking trial yesterday for those who were following along. (pics!)

OK, I know it was a baddy for me to take pictures in the courtroom..... But, if I never used my phone for anything else, this was worth it!

I know the quality sucks but this had to be done discreetly so the Judge did not see me doing it. I have a few more but I am waiting on the pics to get to my e-mail account from my phone still... I managed to get 4 or 5 good ones.

As far as the case goes, the Judge is granting the order of protection based on our testimony. Arika did very well representing herself considering this was her first need to be in a court room. I told her the most important rules were to have your questions written down (which I did before we went into the courtroom), try to maintain your compsore and flow (speed and pitch does play a part), and finally never ask a question we do not know they answer to. This apporach worked perfectly. The suspect was caught completey off gaurd and mad a complete ass of himself. He was also caught up in 2 different lies he told while on the stand. At one point he started crying and claiming that HE was the victim and that we have gone out of our way to ruin his life. Eventually the Judge lost his cool and advised the suspect to just keep his mouth shut.

Justice may have finally prevailed.
