With dignity and respect your honors, I represent Mr. Wolf who has been accused falsely of attempting to murder three little pigs. I am seeking to present to you an argument and the evidence to portray the innocence of my client. My name is David Mathews. I have been an attorney for the past 12 years. I am married and have two sons. As I stated, my client is Mr. Wolf. Mr. Wolf, please stand up. Now do any of you, simply by looking at Mr. Wolf, already believe that he shouldn’t win this case? Does he remind any of you about someone who was accused falsely? Doesn’t he remind any of you of a time you received false accusations but evidence set you free? You may sit down Mr. Wolf. Mr. Wolf is innocent. He is a victim of group judgment. He is in court today because of perception held by the Pig family. A perception that other members of the Wolf family ate young pigs long time ago. The Mr. Wolf in court today is being accused falsely. Mr. Wolf is innocent. I will walk you through the evidence and you will get to witness his innocence. In essence, Mr. Wolf has been a friend to the three little pigs’ mother and he had no idea the little pigs had moved out. Secondly, there are multiple wolves out there who would have been confused with my client. Lastly but not least, my client was not around when the attacks happened.
With respect to time and its scarcity, I hereby wish to progress to my first point. Mr. Wolf has always been a friend to the little pigs’ mother. Looking at their age, they were both born on the same month your honor. They have grown talking to each other and Mr. Wolf was aware of Mrs. Pig giving birth. For the entire time Mrs. Pig was overloaded with pregnancy, Mr. Wolf and some of his other friends visited her. As a matter of fact, the last time Mr. Wolf saw any member of the pig’s family was this time. The birth and the moving out of the three little pigs was not communicated to him. Your honor, look at Mr. Wolf. This guy your honor has known the Pig family for more than ten years. He has been there for Mrs. Pig when she was in need of his help. May everyone in this court understand that Rome was not built in a day. Therefore, a kind, caring, human and generous character does not change overtime to become a ruthless murderer. It is irrational therefore to accuse Mr. Wolf of attempted murder. My client and I are aware that the three little pigs were attacked brutally in respective houses. We are indeed sorry for the family. Mr. Wolf has always been your friend and the accusations got to him as a very big surprise. Though your family was attacked, it was not my client who attempted the murders. He is human, he respects life.
On to another aspect of this case esteemed jury, I would like to share with you the physical absence of my client in the regions where the attacks occurred during the period the events turned out. As it is the custom of the Pig Empire, when winter begins, a mother pig releases her children to the world so that they can build their new homes. The mother to the three little pigs has stated that. With respect to that custom let’s also consider the culture of the Wolf Empire. It is in their custom that when winter sets in, the strong male wolves are sent miles away to fetch firewood in an environment that is all dry, sunny and its summer. Mr. Wolf is an individual who according to the parents has respect for the culture upon which he has been raised. Mrs. Pig shares the same view about my client as she has grown up watching him practice the cultures. On the three stated nights that the attacks occurred, my client was far away fetching the firewood. As a matter of fact, the Wolf Empire rewarded my client for being the second best male wolf in delivering the best firewood in terms of quality and quantity. Rationally dear jury, my client was focused on achieving what he has done; he was committed to his culture. He was nowhere around during the attacks and he would never think of hurting Mrs. Pig who he had been fond of.
