The Witness Stand

[Tamara224]

This is a thread for fun ONLY!

Here's how you play.... (I'm making this up as a go, so it might be lame and I'm open for suggestions)...

• You ("the lawyer") can "call" anyone you want to the witness stand and he or she has to come*. Post your questions and name the person you want to answer and, if necessary, let the person know they've been "called to the stand."
• The witness has to swear to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth, so help him/her God.
• You can ask your witness one to three (appropriate) questions and he or she must answer.
• Then the witness has the option to "cross examine" the lawyer by asking the same or other questions.

*Okay, the witness doesn't have to come but it's all in good fun.

On the advice of counsel I deny all allegations.

Please remove me from this thread immediately.

 

[Tamara224]

Yay! A volunteer.

I'd like to call Steffenfield to the stand.

*Ahem*

What do you do for fun in Lansing Michigan?

 

[Irrkunst]

To quote Dave Chappelle, "Fiff."

 

[Oddish]

After some deliberation, I call Tamara224 to the witness stand.

 

[Tamara224]

Okay, I swear to tell the truth, the whole truth and nothing but the truth, so help me God.




*Waits nervously*

Short answer...

EVERYTHING!

Tamara, please take a seat right over there.

How squee would you get if there ever was a new book published called Pride and Prejudice of the Harry Lord of the Rings?

If there were ever a mock trial, I'd like to submit that I'd be a good bailiff.

 

[Guy Incognito]

*sits down* I would like to officially state that I am available for questioning. I have established alibi's, and my drug record is clean; save for a low grade caffeine addiction. Until I am summoned, I will be over in this corner listening to...hmmmm...The Cat Empire.

[puffca]

I'll play.
I have always fantasized to be a trial lawyer, although I disliked almost every lawyer I've met IRL.

 

[Shadesofgray]

This does sound like it would be fun. I'll go for it.

The first thing that came to my mind as a result of this thread was this line:

"As your attorney, I advise you to rent a very fast car with no top. And you'll need the cocaine. Tape recorder for special music. Acapulco shirts. Get the hell out of L.A. for at least 48 hours."

 

[Tehchad]

HEY! I'm the resident CF law enforcement here!

Then you can be point man!

 

[Alan Scot]

I didn't do it. It was the one-armed man

Well this thread went nowhere real quick. So many people are volunteering, but nobody is asking any real questions. It was a thoughtful idea, Tamara. Hopefully, something will come of it.

I think we all know that too many personal questions never leads to anything good.

Like, plea bargains and 25 to life.


But Tamara, if you lead us by example I'm sure things might fall into step a bit better. Oh wait, a woman in a leadership position over men. That might make some of the more convservative on the board uncomfortable.

We need some real dirt here? xD
