Truth be told, the chaos that reigned supreme over the trial showcased the fact that it was much less of a court trial and more of a heated debate. Several Nobles tried to speak up and state their opinions, before they were promptly shut up.
The Joker raised his hand—not the mallet and then motioned to his lips akin to a zipper. "It's much better if you all four cease speaking, will you? Ahem, can someone hand me the paper listing all of the so-called alibi of everyone present?"
Rosalyn Lockhart paused. Papers?
Alexander Hartsmichdt stood up and procured some papers—not from the journal, but actually separate ones. He had spent a better time of the day by interviewing the Nobility, at least those who had approached him for some assistance in pleading their cases.
Sometimes, the Joker was malicious enough to say that everyone was guilty until proven otherwise.
