Dear Jury Members: Mr. Bennett should be found not guilty of murder because there is reasonable doubt. Although the prosecution claims he is guilty, they are incorrect because Mr. Alfaro was pouring a cup of coffee before Mr. Adams came in, Mr. Adams had trouble with his eyesight so he could have accidentally put rat poison in instead of sugar, and Mr. Bennett touched the coffee when he went to get Mr. Adams pulse.

Have you ever witnessed a murder or murder trial? Well, in this trial I believe David Eldridge is guilty. If David’s fingerprints were on the metal spatula, he must have been the last one to touch it, the last one to touch it most likely killed Mr. Arms. David also would always ask for a raise and he would get mad once Mr Armes said he would not threaten to quit. David Eldridge is guilty because of the evidence found in the case.

n.d.). It is very unfortunate that Mr. Hopkins was the accomplice of M. Chapman in this case and they both did cause seriously bodily harm to both victims but Mr. Chapman was the one with the weapon and he killed Mr. Roberts without any remorse. Now it is a known fact that all of these thing did accrue in the robbery and death of Mr. Roberts and Mr. O’Neil but once again it was not Mr. Hopkins who cause the death of Mr. Roberts. Therefore, I feel that he should be sentenced for the part of the crime he is actually guilty of committing and not the crimes that the law would charge him for if he was to be sentenced for the murder of Mr. Roberts. Therefore, as the State’s Attorney I know that the Utah Criminal Code 76.6.302.

Dear Jury Members: Did you know some of the most common reasons for committing murder are because of jealousy, revenge, fear, and anger? It is, and these were things that were definitely not going through Mr. Bennetts head as he checked the cold, dead body of Mr. Adams for a pulse, and that was all he did.

Mr. Bennett should be found not guilty because there is strong evidence that shows that he did not kill Mr. Adams. There is reasonable doubt that has been put against him but, there is also reasoning and evidence that he is not the one who killed Mr. Adams and that someone else has framed him for their actions. The strongest piece of evidence in this case was that if Mr.Bennet had killed Mr.Adams, he wouldn’t have checked his pulse because he would’ve already known he was dead and wouldn’t have had to check his pulse. Mr.Bennett states that he checked his pulse which shows evidence that he did not kill Mr.Adams because he would've already known he was dead. This evidence proves my claim because we all know that if you did kill someone with

Although the prosecution claims he is guilty, they are wrong because the rat poison is only available to exterminators and Mr. Alfaro is one, Mrs. Reid thought that she would inherit his wealth, and Mr. Adams has bad eyesight. My first reason is, Mr. Alfaro is an exterminator and the rat poison is only available to exterminators.
