The Judge: Portrayed by Jake Antonaccio this judge has been known to make the audience cheer, to moan, to groan, and roll their eyes. Continuing the traditions of elderly, rich, white men everywhere Antonaccio tries to clean up society before he cleans up his own act.
The Defense Attorney: James Brooks takes a challenge portraying an attorney with more than an uphill battle. Fighting back a chauvinistic Judge, a relentless prosecutor, and a client with no faith Brooks makes a compelling case to a brick wall.
The Prosecution: Ryan Burke channels his inner Archie Bunker in this show, being described by the London Gazette as “…both incredibly appalling and fascinating in the way only a buggy accident can be.” He continues here until the year…show more content… Jake: Overruled, (thumbs up) the prosecution may deliver their opening statements.
Ryan: Thank you your honor. (Sweet high five) Ladies and gentleman of the court. There really is not much to be said, look at this whore. This monster has been in front of the court of England over thirty times, and on her back at least twice as often. This infernal succubus has preyed upon the righteous hearts of men in fair London for FAR TOO LONG. This froward elf-skinned haggard deserves a punishment befitting her crimes, before she corrupts one more faithful husband away. Death be on you slut.
Jake: Thank you for enlightening us thou noble prosecutor. Be on with it defense.
James: Thank you your honor. Ladies and Gentlemen of the court, this trial is a sham. A sham intended to ignore the sins of many a man and load them upon the weary soul of this poor women. The defense states that the charges of prostitution only incriminate her and avoid completely the men who have willing chosen to take business with her. Meaning my client is not guilty of selling her body but simply guilty of being born in a feminine one. If she had been a man she would never have been condemned for such actions. She is guilty of the necessities of motherhood and feeding her children through the only means possible, stealing and pickpocketing. A total sum of three or five schillings. The prosecution is not even sure of that let alone the rest of the allegations…show more content… If that would have served turn…
Jake: Alright that’s enough out of you. Prosecution, your closing remarks.
Ryan: thank you your honor. Ladies and Gentlemen of the Jury, you heard the words from her mouth. This criminal is a WOMAN and that’s not even the worst part! This woman has compromised her purity for money, brought shame unto her seven bastard children, and defiled the morality of our community. A woman capable of such atrocities in our society ought not be held alive. Women are expected to be much more than this. Women are expected to do much less than this. Sentencing this woman to her own death is the only remedy to cure the gross excess of blood she suffers from. May God have mercy on your soul.
