Campbell takes a deep breath. He feels like he has presented the best case possible, and a very convincing case, and there’s nothing else he can do now. It’s time to turn this over to the twelve people who will ultimately decide the fate of Tyree Johnson.
“Ladies and gentlemen, what I do agree with Mr. Wilson about is that you have a huge responsibility, to this particular defendant first, but also to the other defendants in similar trials that are bound to come after him. Your decision will set a precedent and have a major impact for many years into the future. I am confident that we have given you all the information, all the expert testimony, all the scientific studies you need to find this defendant not guilty, for any number of reasons. The judge will tell you that you have to be sure, beyond all reasonable doubt, that Mr. Johnson murdered Beth Ann Brooks. After all you’ve heard and all you’ve learned and all that you now know, I ask you: Are you positive?”
