waiting for their case were seated on the benches and at the
back bench were some prisoners with hand cuffs. Some police or
guards at the back as well as outside. Their were also a few
students from other schools observing.
The experience was a bit scary at first and almost the whole
time. Guards outside and even inside. People who had handcuffs
sitting at the back and even walking around outside. Had to be careful,
one scary and funny thing was that when the judge asked the witness
if he could point out if the person who committed the crime is
anywhere in the room, the witness said yes and pointed at the back
however, my big classmate was blocking the person so it seemed that
the witness was pointing at my classmate, everyone seemed to look at
my classmate until someone told my classmate to move out of the
way. What came to my mind was that if you will be accidentally
involved in the case.
The judge was nice enough to explain to us why this process was taken
or another, for us to understand. How the judge asked questions also
showed that even though it was towards the witness and not the
culprit the judge showed no partiality and wanted the truth. The judge
made sure to confirm the details and made the witness describe in
detail.
It was a first experience, but I dont think Id like to go back. There are
really a lot of
cases and the decision if the person is guilty or not should
be taken seriously.
