Case 5 - Rise From the AshesTrial (Day 2) - Part 3

: You say she stabbed him again and again...
![](4-Phoenix_Point.png)
: But you couldn't have witnessed that!
![](5-Angel_Normal.png)
: Are you testing me...?
![](6-Angel_Demure.png)
: Then I'll test you!
![](8-Edgeworth_Pointing.png)
: I'm afraid the moss is growing under our feet as we wait, Ms. Starr.
![](9-Angel_Angry.png)
: ...!?
![](10-Judge_Shock.png)
: W-what do you mean?
![](12-Edgeworth_Normal.png)
: The autopsy report states that death was due to a loss of blood... from
one stab wound.
![](10-Judge_Shock.png)
: Ah hah! You're right!
![](14-Judge_Angry.png)
: Good show, Mr. Edgeworth!
![](15-Ema_Hopeful.png)
: What a hunk!
![](16-Ema_Side.png)
: He's my hero, really.
![](17-Phoenix_FPV.png)
:
(What about my objection? No one noticed?)
![](14-Judge_Angry.png)
: Well, witness?
![](10-Judge_Shock.png)
: Uh... oh, thanks.
![](5-Angel_Normal.png)
: I always believed that no one could ever mistake ketchup for blood...
![](6-Angel_Demure.png)
: But now, I realize that such mistakes are possible.
![](19-Edgeworth_Curious.png)
: So...
![](8-Edgeworth_Pointing.png)
: You're saying you mistook something... for blood?
![](6-Angel_Demure.png)
: When she lifted her knife, I thought I saw blood at her breast...
![](5-Angel_Normal.png)
: That's why I thought she must have stabbed him at least twice.
![](22-Judge_Normal.png)
: Then tell us what you saw that you thought was blood!
![](14-Judge_Angry.png)
: Testify!
![](6-Angel_Demure.png)
: ...
![](3-Phoenix_Normal.png)
: Her red muffler?
![](6-Angel_Demure.png)
: Yes, like a scarf. The Chief Prosecutor always wears one around her neck.
![](5-Angel_Normal.png)
: So she can be easily hanged at a moment's notice, I suppose...
![](26-Phoenix_Thinking.png)
:
(She's right...)
![](26-Phoenix_Thinking.png)
: But wait...
![](3-Phoenix_Normal.png)
: Isn't it odd that you mistook that for splattered blood?
![](6-Angel_Demure.png)
: ...
![](22-Judge_Normal.png)
: Well, people often mistake my beard...
![](14-Judge_Angry.png)
: For a bib.
![](28-Phoenix_Nervous.png)
:
(A judge with a bib. That's why this place feels so much like kindergarten sometimes.)
![](6-Angel_Demure.png)
: Actually...
![](12-Edgeworth_Normal.png)
: There was only one knife wound.
![](6-Angel_Demure.png)
: ...
![](31-Phoenix_Intense.png)
:
(Apparently, Ms. Starr isn't entirely sure of her own testimony.)
![](16-Ema_Side.png)
: Mr. Wright!
![](15-Ema_Hopeful.png)
: This is our chance!!!
![](17-Phoenix_FPV.png)
: Chance for what, I wonder...?
And loop. This should be easy.
![](31-Phoenix_Intense.png)
: Ms. Starr! I demand an explanation...
![](34-Edgeworth_Sly.png)
: The witness is clearly not suited for detective work.
![](9-Angel_Angry.png)
: W-what!?
![](12-Edgeworth_Normal.png)
: The suspect was not wearing
![](8-Edgeworth_Pointing.png)
: a scarf or muffler of any kind when she stabbed the victim.
![](34-Edgeworth_Sly.png)
: Only a true professional could be so clueless.
![](8-Edgeworth_Pointing.png)
: I'm sure you'll make a good lunchlady, have no fear.
![](10-Judge_Shock.png)
: Hmm!
![](22-Judge_Normal.png)
: Harsh words! But good!
![](15-Ema_Hopeful.png)
: In the end, Mr. Edgeworth prevails!
![](17-Phoenix_FPV.png)
:
(What was my objection, chopped liver!?)
![](37-Angel_Hurt.png)
: B-but it was there, a scarf, no, not that, but something red! Really!
![](39-Edgeworth_Stern.png)
: Well now, where were we?
![](8-Edgeworth_Pointing.png)
: The witness has given us an entertaining interlude, now back to business.
![](37-Angel_Hurt.png)
: Wh-what!?
![](14-Judge_Angry.png)
: Very well, witness. Continue your testimony.
![](22-Judge_Normal.png)
: You saw the crime, and apprehended the suspect...
![](14-Judge_Angry.png)
: Tell us about that.
![](9-Angel_Angry.png)
: ......
![](6-Angel_Demure.png)
: Very well.
![](5-Angel_Normal.png)
: I do remember some things accurately, at least.
![](31-Phoenix_Intense.png)
:
(Ultimately, we couldn't shake the most important part of her testimony.)
![](15-Ema_Hopeful.png)
: The most important part...?
![](17-Phoenix_FPV.png)
: The part where your sister stabs the victim!
(This next testimony might just be the moment of truth!)
![](10-Judge_Shock.png)
: You are quite determined about this scarf, aren't you?
![](6-Angel_Demure.png)
: I strike like a snake and bite like a cobra!
![](5-Angel_Normal.png)
: That's me. Angel Starr.
![](26-Phoenix_Thinking.png)
: That's not a very good metaphor. First of all, a cobra is a kind of snake.
![](9-Angel_Angry.png)
: Don't bother me with details, unless you want to get bitten!
![](28-Phoenix_Nervous.png)
: N-no thanks!
![](47-Ema_Study.png)
: Note to self: Attorney Wright gets bitten by snake.
![](6-Angel_Demure.png)
: The chief prosecutor tried to resist, but her efforts were in vain.
![](5-Angel_Normal.png)
: She knocked my hands aside, kicked over an oil drum...
![](28-Phoenix_Nervous.png)
: O-oil drum?
(Hard to imagine...)
![](5-Angel_Normal.png)
: Oh, she's beautiful, but deadly! A predator, this one! A leopard woman! Rowr!
![](14-Judge_Angry.png)
: Very well, Mr. Wright. Your cross-examination, if you will.
![](26-Phoenix_Thinking.png)
:
(That's right...)
![](6-Angel_Demure.png)
: She was obviously trying to hide herself.
![](5-Angel_Normal.png)
: Quite a natural thing for a criminal to do!
![](12-Edgeworth_Normal.png)
: And what did you do then?
![](26-Phoenix_Thinking.png)
: You say "quickly"... were you close to the suspect?
![](54-Angel_Nasty.png)
: As I just said!
![](5-Angel_Normal.png)
: I was only 30 feet away from her the whole time.
![](22-Judge_Normal.png)
: That would make it about 30 feet from the car, yes.
![](3-Phoenix_Normal.png)
: Is that correct, Ms. Starr?
![](6-Angel_Demure.png)
: Y-yes, that's right.
![](5-Angel_Normal.png)
: I went over it, of course.
![](10-Judge_Shock.png)
: Amazing! The Cough-up Queen, lunchlady athlete, indeed.
![](62-Ema_Thoughtful.png)
: It would have taken her a little time to climb over the fence.
![](15-Ema_Hopeful.png)
: So she couldn't have gotten to my sister THAT fast...
![](17-Phoenix_FPV.png)
:
(How come Ms. Skye didn't get away?)
![](31-Phoenix_Intense.png)
: She mentioned the muffler?
![](3-Phoenix_Normal.png)
: What exactly did she say?
![](6-Angel_Demure.png)
: If I remembered exactly, I would have told you in my testimony!
![](28-Phoenix_Nervous.png)
:
(Cheeky!)
![](5-Angel_Normal.png)
: Anyway, all I heard her say was the word "muffler."
![](10-Judge_Shock.png)
: Just that one word?
![](39-Edgeworth_Stern.png)
: So... what you heard wasn't the suspect talking to you, but to someone else?
![](5-Angel_Normal.png)
: Yes. The chief prosecutor was talking on
her phone!
![](6-Angel_Demure.png)
: Yes, ultimately.
![](12-Edgeworth_Normal.png)
: Ultimately?
![](6-Angel_Demure.png)
: My memory...
![](54-Angel_Nasty.png)
: It's like a salmon, heading upstream, you see.
![](10-Judge_Shock.png)
: N-no, the court doesn't see, Ms. Starr.
![](14-Judge_Angry.png)
: On the wall?
![](54-Angel_Nasty.png)
: Apparently, it was out of order.
![](14-Judge_Angry.png)
: And so she used her cell phone?
![](71-Judge_Thinking.png)
: Hmm.
![](14-Judge_Angry.png)
: Good witnessing, witness!
![](28-Phoenix_Nervous.png)
:
(Good witnessing? What ever happened to good testifying?)
![](22-Judge_Normal.png)
: You should of course add this to your testimony.
![](54-Angel_Nasty.png)
: The things I do to please this rookie defense attorney.
And the cell phone evidence is updated to note the call and the whole 'muffler' thing.
![](26-Phoenix_Thinking.png)
: Um... do you think you could restate your testimony for the court?
![](10-Judge_Shock.png)
: Ah hah! I was going to ask the same thing!
![](54-Angel_Nasty.png)
: I'll only say this one time, so listen close, Rookies.
![](6-Angel_Demure.png)
: The chief prosecutor hung up her phone!
![](26-Phoenix_Thinking.png)
: And you
![](78-Phoenix_Smug.png)
: saw her doing this?
![](15-Ema_Hopeful.png)
: ...?
![](62-Ema_Thoughtful.png)
: What is it, Mr. Wright?
![](26-Phoenix_Thinking.png)
: She "made to escape"...
![](3-Phoenix_Normal.png)
: Can you be more specific?
![](54-Angel_Nasty.png)
: She brushed aside my hand and ran! It was a terrible sight to see, like a dollop of lard on a pate of foie gras!
![](28-Phoenix_Nervous.png)
:
(Huh?)
![](54-Angel_Nasty.png)
: She even kicked over an oil drum at me!
![](28-Phoenix_Nervous.png)
: A-an oil drum!?
![](22-Judge_Normal.png)
: There was an oil drum lying on its side at the scene of the crime.
![](19-Edgeworth_Curious.png)
: But, it's strange...
![](14-Judge_Angry.png)
: Hmm? What's that?
![](19-Edgeworth_Curious.png)
: If she wanted to escape...
![](8-Edgeworth_Pointing.png)
: why didn't she run the other way?
![](82-Ema_Determined.png)
: Th-that's right!
![](16-Ema_Side.png)
: It doesn't make any sense that she would run from behind the partition to the oil drums!
![](54-Angel_Nasty.png)
: ...
And loop.
![](47-Ema_Study.png)
: Excellent! More mysteries!
![](17-Phoenix_FPV.png)
: I wish we could solve a few before finding more, though...
![](26-Phoenix_Thinking.png)
:
(So Ms. Skye tried to run?)
![](62-Ema_Thoughtful.png)
: I'm sorry my sister is so suspicious, Mr. Wright...
![](17-Phoenix_FPV.png)
: Not as sorry as I am.
![](82-Ema_Determined.png)
: But she didn't do it! You have to believe me!
So, can you spot a problem in this testimony?
Next time: Trying to solve a few mysteries.
