A couple of hours later Meg, Anna, Craig and Evan were sitting in court. In the back there were a lot of visitors, among them was Jane Simmons, holding a small notebook and a pen in her hands.
“Are 당신 sure 당신 want to do it like this?” Craig asked uncertain.
“Did 당신 tell the judge we’re going for unaccountability? “ Meg asked back. Craig nodded, when the clerk stood and called: “All rise!”
Everyone stood and the judge walked inside. He sat down and everyone else followed his example.
“The defendant may rise” the judge said. Meg stood and tried to keep her pounding 심장 under control, hoping the judge and the jury wouldn’t notice any of it. “Do 당신 know why you’re here, Miss Masters?”
“Yes, your honor” Meg replied and to her relief her voice was steady. “I killed someone”
The judge raised his eyebrows. “You don’t deny this?” he asked.
“No, your honor” Meg sighed.
“Do 당신 regret your crimes?” the judge asked.
Meg remained silent. Paul 모건 had been on to them and he wouldn’t let Cas go. Heather Roberts had nearly killed him 의해 giving him heroin.
“No, you’re honor, I’m not sorry for my crimes” she eventually said.
“Your attorney told me we can’t hold 당신 accountable for the murders 당신 committed” the judge continued. “But seeing 당신 here, I get the idea that 당신 knew exactly what 당신 did when 당신 killed agent 모건 and Heather Roberts”
“I’m not sure what my attorney has told you, but I can assure 당신 that it is not the truth” Meg replied. “Only I can provide 당신 the truth, so if 당신 let me, I will tell 당신 everything, right from the beginning”
The judge leaned backwards and waved with his hand.
“Please, we’re all ears”
