Decent Essays
Usually getting hit by a car isn’t funny to people, but to me and my friends anything can be funny. One morning I was helping my friend’s mom campaign for Chancery Clerk. Some other friends and I had been helping her campaign for about a week, but this day felt different. It felt better than any other days we had been helping her. The sun was out but it wasn’t hot and the wind was blowing perfectly. When they came to pick me up to go I hopped on top of the car, so he pulled out and started driving.

    It was a small court room, and the room was filled with all sorts of people. I think there were some that was there for court and some were there to hear someone’s sentencing. There was a banner you could see as you walked in at the front of the room that said” Show up, Be honest, and Try”. To my left of the court room there was a jury box with people in it, I thought there was a trial going on, but actually there were two people in orange and I believe the other people were counselors for their program.…

It’s quite easy to misunderstand a prosecutor as they go against the defense lawyers, in which society praises because they ‘prove the innocent, innocent’. Though this isn’t always the case.…
