Murder of a Pirate in the first degree!...

Murder of a Pirate in the first degree! Murder, premeditated homicide—is the most serious charge tried in our Fairy Tale criminal courts. You’ve heard a long and complex case, and now it is your duty to sit down and to try and separate the facts from the fairy tales. One man, Captain James Hook, is now dead. The life of another, Peter Pan, is at stake. If there is a reasonable doubt in your minds as to the guilty of the accused…then you must declare Mr. Pan not guilty. If, however, there is NO reasonable doubt, then he must be found guilty and will be banished from Neverland and from flying and from being a boy forever—he will be forced to instead live in the miserable real world of adulthood forever. (He shivers.) Whatever you decide, the verdict must be unanimous. I urge you to deliberate honestly and thoughtfully…and quietly because I am going to take a nap. You are faced with grave responsibility. Thank you. Thank you and good night.
