trial #2





DAY 4 (afternoon)
Complex Population: 32



At noon, the same tone from the morning rings out, and Judy's voice filters out over the intercom.

"Good afternoon, residents. As per Safety Protocol 6227-A, it is time to conduct a trial to bring justice for the victim. Please proceed to the courtroom on the first level."

Just as at night, if you don't go to the courtroom, you'll be treated to an electric shock of increasing strength until you go to the courtroom or are unconscious. Though considering the ominous penalty for not participating in a trial, you should likely just go rather than risk not voting because you've been knocked out by your own stubbornness... Once you're in the courtroom, you'll find that bottled water and light snacks are provided, but otherwise you'll have to bring anything else you may need.

As you come to your conclusions about who to vote for, you can step into the judgement theater to cast your vote at the terminal. You may change your vote as many times as you'd like, but at 7PM, your vote (or lack thereof) is locked in.

You have until 7PM to discuss and vote for who you think the murderer is.

voting

karmas: (a: ha.)

[personal profile] karmas 2016-10-15 08:37 pm (UTC)(link)
If we're going to discuss theories of voting, very well. I'll begin.

[She crosses her arms in front of her, adopting a smirk.]

At the last trial, before we decided to try and abstain, Leo Baskerville raised Diva hitting Charles Fei-Ong as one of the potentially suspicious things he saw. That's to be expected. We were asked to mention if we saw anything suspicious, after all. And it would be foolish for a member of the staff to make a sudden accusation.

However, several individuals were very quick to accept Leo Baskerville's claims as a sign of guilt. Alice, Bigby Wolf, Luke Castellan, Adam Parrish, Elizabeth, and Veronica Santangelo. We must assume, of course, that most of this group were acting in good faith. But it is likely that at least one of them is staff, as it would be members of staff who would be most eager to see the trial lead to a false execution.

[personal profile] liven 2016-10-15 08:39 pm (UTC)(link)
...Those individuals are all usually quite paranoid, though, with maybe one exception. I don't think it's really the best litmus test...Also, several of them really just wanted to question her, and things escalated from there.
karmas: (s: hmph)

[personal profile] karmas 2016-10-15 08:51 pm (UTC)(link)
As I said. It isn't that there is no rational reason any of them would have wanted to question her. It is merely that the odds are good one of them is staff.
liven: art credit unknown, please contact (CHAT ► well that's dumb.)

[personal profile] liven 2016-10-15 08:53 pm (UTC)(link)
It is something to consider. Well, Bigby said we should all say everything we think, so this counts...

[ ... ]

Also, can you please do me a favor and tell me you'll vote yes to that one [ jabs finger at male alice ] becoming Jefferey?

[ SHE ONLY NEEDS. SIX MORE YESES. ]
karmas: (s: tsk tsk)

[personal profile] karmas 2016-10-15 08:54 pm (UTC)(link)
Jefferey? Certainly. I have no objection to that.

That could be a start. You also had suggested no one in Khu'rain's apartment may be the culprit, so that'd take Parrish and Leo out of the list.

I'm also inclined towards trusting Santangelo. Letting us reach the corpse is a valuable chance for those who know about investigations, a staff member wouldn't risk it.

[So that leaves Alice, Bigby, Luke and Elizabeth...none of which looks particularly suspicious]

karmas: (s: tsk tsk)

[personal profile] karmas 2016-10-15 08:54 pm (UTC)(link)
[Shaking her finger.] Ah, ah, ah. No. I suggested no one in Charles Fei-Ong's apartment. Which eliminates Miss Veronica Santangelo and Alice. I would not be as certain with Rayfa Padma Khu'rain, but it is possible. Personally, I don't consider Leo Baskerville a suspect, merely the hapless fool who first raised a potential scapegoat.

I believe Bigby Wolf, Luke Castellan, and Elizabeth to be most suspicious, personally. I only wished to be thorough in my assessment of who was involved.
tearable: (pic#9211951)

[personal profile] tearable 2016-10-15 08:59 pm (UTC)(link)
Leave them out of it.

[ Elizabeth says with a soft growl under her breath. ]

I suppose you want to look more towards me - who pushed for an interrogation in the first place.
karmas: (a: disgusted)

[personal profile] karmas 2016-10-15 09:07 pm (UTC)(link)
I will not. I accuse the three of you for no personal reason, and therefore, your appeal to your own personal feelings do not matter to me. You think the fact that you've decided these two are your friends makes them immune to suspicion? Ridiculous.

In fact, I find you less suspicious for the reason that you occasionally disagreed with theories that were brought up accusing others. Most suspicious would be Luke Castellan, and it would be a mistake to discount Lara Croft.
tearable: (pic#10637963)

[personal profile] tearable 2016-10-15 09:11 pm (UTC)(link)
They're not my friend, that's the thing you need to consider. If they'd like to defend themselves, so be it, but I'm the one who made the suggestion to do so. Evidence points to me as the source of what brought Diva to her death by interrogating her so carelessly. That was my mistake.

[ She definitely sounds honest with that. ]

If you plan to travel down the avenue, just know that Bigby and Luke's actions were based solely on my suggestion. I had no idea Luke would get involved and Bigby - his card said he's skilled at interrogating, which is why I pushed for him to.

I'd have to disagree that Luke is the most suspicious. His actions clearly suggested that he thought he was doing the right thing, just like the others. He's been one of the most active people in trying to figure things out, even if it means putting himself in physical danger.

The staff have more self-preservation than he does.

[He's lifting his head from where it's been burrowed into Adam's shoulder most of the trial while napping, sniffling slightly and coughing to clear his throat. Sorry Adam.]

You can also count me out because I'm a lot more invested in keeping kids alive than killing them. I'm a camp counselor. [A pause.] Also Shijima's right, some of us are usually paranoid anyway but you'd be paranoid too if you were chased by monsters for fourteen years.

[Another pause...and a sneeze. Hopefully this will be over soon, gods.] Also Adam convinced me to abstain and I agreed with his reasoning.
karmas: (s: thinking)

[personal profile] karmas 2016-10-15 09:09 pm (UTC)(link)
I will not count you out. I don't know you, so I cannot take your motivations at face value.

I won't repeat it again - I do not contest you had rational reasons to interrogate Diva. But I stand by what I said. One of those involved in considering Diva before we changed to abstention was likely staff.

Do you really think this is any better than voting based on weak evidence? [Which is, at the time, what he'd thought he'd been presenting.] I'm not voting for people who just ran with a suggestion I brought up. Being an asshole isn't the same as being a murderer.

Nice to see you chipping in. Don't think I saw you around too much last time we went through this. You know, when Diva ― the suspect at the time ― decided to admit to having killed in the past and did little to remove suspicion. Be suspicious if you would like, but there was a reason Diva seemed to be guilty at the time. The majority agreed to waiting to vote on her either way.

Luke volunteered to help me when asked. Elizabeth went off of Leo's suspicions and thought we should get more info. And I have my... regrets, to say the least, but what's done is done.
karmas: (f: smirk)

Bigby Wolf, Bigby Wolf. Please, cease being so defensive. I'm not attempting to punish you for your actions, or even saying they were wrong. But the fact remains, the odds of choosing staff correctly are higher if we choose from the individuals who were involved in accusing Diva than they would be if we chose from the entire group.

You can take me off that list.

[Alice?? Why.]

If a staff member did vote for Diva like those two [she gestures at Franziska and Adam] were talking about earlier to mess up that vote, which seems to be the case since no one confessed, then I can't be a staff member. If messing up the vote was my goal, I could have just left things alone since Shijima wanted to vote because she didn't like Alvin, but I convinced her to abstain with the rest of us.
