Citizen of Verona!
This is an urgent letter from the Prince of Italy. We have been made aware of the murder suicide of two heirs to large families in Verona. Whilst normally the Prince is unconcerned about the happenings of things in such backwaters as Verona, there has been a lot of pressure on him lately around the budget. This tragedy has come at the right time to distract the Italian populace from their deficit suffering!
You have been selected to play the part of the jury in the Citizen’s tribunal investigating the death of these two people. I have sent my wisest, most trusted counsellor guy to cross examine all surviving witnesses and players in this game.
He will meet with you first, to gain a full picture of what is happening. At the end of the Citizen’s tribunal he will present a suspect to you and ask for you to throw wild accusations at them.
For this tribunal you and possibly a fellow rapscallion citizen should have a list of a statement and a list of three questions you would like to put to the suspect. Remember, the people of Italy demand blood! (they’ll stop worrying about tax increases then ) So make your three questions, ruling out other suspects clear an precise, so your suspect will not be able to escape our distraction, I mean, punishment!
It will be your job to accuse one party (person) and make an argument as to why they should face the stiffest penalty under Italian law.
