He's not paying me, and I'm not making much money representing him.
Your honor, this verdict unfortunately is significantly tainted.
Why did you investigate Christian Brando as a suspect in this case?
All I ask you to do is to do justice. And I respectfully submit: If you do justice you will end this nightmare for Mr. Blake and you will give him his life back.
He handled the deliberations with more composure than I was able to muster.
I intend to file a notice of appeal by the end of the week.
He never asked you to do anything illegal, did he?
Maybe you think 'He might have done it,' maybe 'He probably did it?' ... But it hasn't been proven to you beyond a reasonable doubt.
He was denied a fair jury; he was denied a fair trial. This is a man who, as a result of a tainted jury in this case, is being compared to O.J. Simpson ... We're talking about this man's legacy.
The fact of the matter, sir, is that the last time you spoke to him, he told you he was going to retire with that woman, isn't that correct?
