Joey Davis Case
May it please the court.
Your honor, members of the jury. I am ____ and I represent ______. To my left/right are my colleagues ___and___.
We defense firmly believe that the 'Princess Beads' you product was not the direct cause of minor Joey Davis' death, as the accident was not foreseeable by the defendant.
Firstly, we would like to express our sympathy for the Davis family on behalf of our client, the Happyland Toy Company. We believe that our client have done their best to prevent the beads and rings to be swallowed. We truly believe that minor Joey Davis' death was a tragic accident, we are sorry for the loss for Plaintiff Andy Davis. But we believe our client the Happyland Toy Company stands not guilty in the case. In the product, on the bottom of the box includes a warning that says 'Choking hazard. Not for

When Miller, the babysitter, and Andy, the mother, observed repeated instances when Joey showed an interest in the toy, they should have taken much greater efforts to keep Joey from mouthing the toy and this could have avoided the death of the child.
Fourthly, we believe the true cause of death of Joey was not because of our product 'Princess Beads'. From the Midlands City Autopsy report, the chemical Gamma-Hydroxybulyric acid from our product could have triggered respiratory arrest. However, that determination cannot be made by the autopsy alone. Therefore, we truly believe that we are not guilty for the death of minor Joey Davis.
To conclude, we believe that our client's conscience is clear. We sincerely express our sympathy for the loss of child for plaintiff Andy Davis but we have proved that we are not responsible for the death of minor Joey Davis and we would like to ask for a verdict of not found guilty.
Thank you for your attention, your honor, members of the court and members of the

In a long story short Caylee’s skeletal remains were found near Casey’s house and throughout the time Anthony lied repeatedly regarding Caylee’s whereabouts (Casey Anthony Trial, 2011). The truck was found in an abandoned parking lot and towed two weeks earlier and George Anthony which is Casey’s father had said it still smelled like a dead body as well (Casey Anthony Trial, 2011). As the trial went on there were statements made back and forth about who did what and some very detailed observations had begun to rise. Ultimately Casey Anthony was free to go and all the charges had dropped because of lack of evidence. There were many aspects in the computer forensic side of this trial.…

    Accordingly, the possibility that the culprit would intervened in the case at the production stage in the factories was disappeared. Police assumed that the culprit would entered many different retail chains in Chicago and added solid cyanide to some of Tylenol capsules. However, since there was no witness who claimed that he or she saw someone was doing something with Tylenol in the stores, police supposed that the culprit would add cyanide at another places. And, after adding cyanide into the capsules, the culprit would put the capsules into the bottles of Tylenol perfectly and put them on store shelves. And, unfortunately, victims bought one of those poisoned Tylenol as usual. After a massive re-call of Tylenol, three more poison-tampered bottles were founded at different stores in Chicago…

    The forensic aspect of the Pamela Foddrill case made the differences between the theory and the reality of criminal investigation very apparent. When Foddrill’s body was found in December of 1995, the cause of death was originally ruled as violent trauma, indicated by the “broken and splintered nasal bones and fractures to her neck” (Course 69). A few years later, forensic pathologist Scott Wagner said that Foddrill’s injuries, while harmful, were probably not fatal, and the cause of death was changed to blunt force…
