我只是想誇一下這段台詞


「My lord, members of the jury, the prosecution has very ably presented against the prisoner, Leonard Vole, a case with the most overwhelming circumstantial evidence. Among the witnesses you have heard Chief Inspector Hearne, who has given his testimony in a fair and impartial manner, as he always does. He has put before you a clever theory of how this crime was committed. Whether it is theory or actual fact, however, you will decide for yourselves. And then you have heard the evidence of Janet McKenzie, a worthy and devoted housekeeper who has suffered two most grievous losses. One, the death of her beloved mistress and, second, in being deprived of an inheritance of 80,000 pound, which she'd fully expected to receive. I will not comment further on her evidence, but will express only my deepest sympathy for her in both these... mishaps. And most damaging of all, the prosecution has produced a surprise witness, one Christine Helm, whom the prisoner brought from the rubble of her homeland to the safety of this country, giving her his love and the protection of his name. I objected to her testimony because a wife cannot give evidence harmful to her husband. But it has been proven that her marriage to Mr. Vole was fraudulent and bigamous. Therefore, her evidence must be admitted and you must consider it. For what it is worth. Such is the prosecution's case. Now it is the turn of the defence. We could present, on behalf of the prisoner, witnesses to his character, his war record, the lack of criminal or evil association in his past. However, only one witness can shed new light on this tragic riddle. The prisoner himself. Members of the jury, I call Leonard Stephen Vole.」

律師發言要求嚴謹、精確。不懂法律,但是美劇裡頭律師發言好像要求很高,有些話可以說,有些話不能說。如何在框架里把話說的意有所指卻又讓你抓不到把柄,這段台詞是典範。
