Prospect Found not guilty last night in the “walk in the woods” case.  My lawyer friends all swore to me that such a case would never be prosecuted, but prosecuted it was (twice no less!), though the judge seemed nonplussed to be hearing so frivolous a case.  In the end, the trial was interesting – and I know that people who know me will not be surprised to hear that I defended myself, doing all the cross-examinations, and the like – but as the library here in Woodstock is closing in a few moments, I will have to leave the narration for another time.  I will say this: to be on the hotseat, representing yourself at your own trial for a full hour, thinking on your feet the whole time, seeing people say things of questionable honesty (about yourself, no less!), is not easy.
