Kill Orly P.4
(A crime of intrusion)
The courtroom was abuzz with the latest development. The prosecution had brought forth new evidence, aiming to solidify their case against Jeanne. But I was resolute, determined to keep the promise I had made to defend her.
```
As the trial progressed, the prosecution painted a picture of Jeanne as a co-conspirator, an accomplice to Orly's clandestine activities. They alleged that her proximity to Orly during his final days implicated her in his crimes.
I countered with fervor, "Your Honor, the prosecution's narrative is a house of cards, built on conjecture and circumstantial evidence. Jeanne's only crime was loving a man who harbored dark secrets."
I presented alibis, phone records, and testimonies from those who knew Jeanne best. They spoke of her character, her kindness, and her ignorance of Orly's double life.
"Orly was a man of many masks," I told the jury. "To the world, a tech mogul. To his family, a tyrant. And to the shadows, an assassin. His death may have freed him from the chains of incarceration, but it should not ensnare Jeanne in a web of lies."
The evidence I gathered painted a different story: Jeanne, far from being a mastermind, was a pawn in Orly's dangerous game—a game that cost him his life.
As the trial neared its end, the jury was faced with a decision that went beyond the fate of one woman. It was a choice about justice, about not letting the true villain escape into the annals of unsolved mysteries.
