After waiting for an hour and a half for this to get underway this morning, the assistant DA came up to us and let us know that we didn't need to be there today. He said the victim was there and his was really the only testimony they'd need for this preliminary hearing. The good news is that we can expect subpoenas in the not too distant future for the actual trial at the Media courthouse. Yes, this fine specimine has no less than 7 felony charges against her, so district court will not suffice. Grande.
The show was moderately entertaining, still. The public defender was the same guy I mentioned in today's first post. He's either mildly retarded or just does a good job pretending to be. My favorite argument of today is that even though this woman held a knife to the clerk's throat, she didn't actual say that she was going to kill him, so she shouldn't be charged with terroristic threats. Right. Because holding a knife to someone's throat isn't threatening at all. Cheers.
