For Better or For Worse by Lynn Johnston for November 11, 2006
Transcript:
Elizabeth: I don't understand the legal system. They want us all in the building, but not the courtroom... they keep us waiting for hours and then they send us home. Anthony: Yes, a trial sure isn't the way it is on television! Elizabeth: Maybe it was in the old days! You know... everyone piles into the courtroom, the witnesses have their say, the lawyers state their case, the jury gives a verdict and - it's over! Anthony: But a fast trial probably wasn't fair to the accused! Elizabeth: And all this waiting isn't fair to US!
