"Congressman Obama and Congressman Marty."

"They're all here today."

The detective looked around and recognized the two.

The auditorium silently listened to the plaintiff's lawyer and the police detective's questions and answers, which were actually introduced in the newspapers.

Serving as a juror is an obligation of the public, so when the judge does not agree, the jury members are not allowed to withdraw without authorization.

"What else did you see"

The plaintiff's attorney continued to question the detective.

"We saw a man lying on the ground with a hole in his chest."

"The man is dead, his face is pale, his eyes are wide open, and he has long since lost his breath."

"There is a dagger on the ground."

The detective told what he saw.
