Courtroom Drama | Stan Morrison

one expert identified the sneaker treads
another testified about the blood spatter
a producer of “forensic frenzy” took notes
it was a perfectly purulent television matter

a hostile witness reluctantly took the stand
exhibits a to z and everything else in between
the jury was either excused or sequestered
objections and overrules peppered the scene

the judge was in no mood for shenanigans
the press was excluded, not knowing why
it was a once in a century rare type of case
a call for justice for brazenly swatting a fly
