Emotional Court
the judge presiding
over the emotional court
emotional judgment
final say fell upon deaf ears
jury of emotional peers
were gathered around
to witness the
lawyers argue their case
trial lasted only a few hours
till the jury made their deliberation
the verdict passed
down was a conviction of
guilty as charged on all accounts
sentenced to life with no parole
appealed the decision many times till one day they
overturned the emotional sentence
