Burners
“I was trying to process what had just happened, and wondering if they shouldn’t just cart Tony Beniquez off to prison right now—Go straight to jail, do not pass GO, do not collect anything other than an orange jumper, an inmate number, and a life sentence.
That’s exactly what was going to happen if the defense didn’t get up to speed in a hurry. Maybe Tony was guilty. Maybe he wasn’t. Didn’t matter either way if his side wasn’t ready to put up a fight.
I was also trying to figure out what it was that Jack had wanted to say on the stand, and why she was still sitting, fuming, in the back of the courtroom when she could have left. I wasn’t the only one. The guy with the enormous ears—again, I assumed it was half of a pair, but as a reporter I could not verify that—was weirdly fixated on Jack. He’d been staring at her from the moment she was called to the stand and was still glaring at her now, while the attorneys for both sides held a whispered discussion with Judge Malvo.
