Chapter Twelve
"This just in," announced anchorman Douglass. "Some new insight on the Dalton murder case has just been revealed. Not only have they discovered the real killer they also have a CD of the killer admitting to the crime. Although, they will not go public with the names and other crucial details we still keep faith for the Dalton parents as they go through this awful time. Back to Ты Joe."
Dakota stared her tv with astonishment. She had just leave the jailhouse and arrived Главная to find her parents watching the news. Not only was she surprised, she was also impressed on how Hazel had willingly turned herself in.
"Oh dear," called Dakota's mom. "This letter came in the mail for you. It is something about a court date."
Court Date
Judge Monte stood firmly in her chair. She was like a Queen sitting over her subjects. "Okay plaintiff, call your first witness."
"We call Reese to the stand," declared the Dalton's lawyer. Reese shyly moved her way to the stands. She silently sat down keeping her head facing the floor. "Reese, where were Ты the night of Abigail's murder?"
"Oh uh I was home, alone," Reese said.
"At the time, did Ты know Hazel Portwood?"
"Not at all," Reese hesitated for continuing. "I did see her around."
"Would Ты say that she was ever nice to Abigail?" asked the lawyer.
"Not ever!" There were some gasp and a few head shavings of disapproval.
"Defendant call your first witness to the stand," сказал(-а) the judge.
"We call Hazel to the stand," сказал(-а) the Hazel's lawyer. When Hazel finally settled in her chair, the lawyer began questioning her. "Did Ты do it?" he asked.
"Yes," сказал(-а) Hazel. This time there were loud gasping.
They had her now. There was no way she could possibly get out of this situation. Hazel would be rotting in jail soon. They showed the evidence and did еще questioned. Dakota watched from the chairs as it all went down. The jury was finally going to make their decision. It only took them five минуты to come up with a verdict. A short man stood up. "We find the defendant, not guilty but maybe mentally insane."
"The defendant will be tested for mental sanity and she is free to go," сказал(-а) the judge. "Case closed."
Hazel strolled past Dakota and mumbled, "See Ты on the outside, if Ты ever make it."
