The defense attorney was already sweating profusely, lacking any political sensitivity.
In such a high-profile case that his peers dared not take on, only he had the audacity.
It's not that he lacked ability, but Matt's attorney was no less skilled than he was.
After an intense war of words, his attempts to provoke the witness into losing control all failed, thwarted by Matt!
Moreover, Matt's responses almost exactly countered his own, as if he were Eastern, one might exclaim:
"Are you the king of all kings?"
But he couldn't lose!
Staking his aspirations for fame and fortune, he had to win this trial!
Defense Attorney: "I heard the witness mention a soldier named Edward Drogon, but he wasn't at the scene..."
Matt: "Mr. Drogon has already died from a gunshot wound, and in fact, here, my witness wants to accuse senior officials of the NSA..."
"NSA?" the defense attorney scratched his head, frantically searching through his documents for something that wasn't there at all!
