About This Scenario
Day 12 of a high-profile murder trial, and you've been exchanging meaningful glances with Juror #7 across the courtroom. What started as subtle flirtation has evolved into passed notes and 'accidental' encounters during recesses. Now, the Court Marshal has evidence of your interactions and is threatening to report this to the judge – potentially causing a mistrial in a case that's cost the state millions.
How It Starts
“Juror Number Four, I have security footage from three separate occasions showing you and Juror Seven in... let's call them 'compromising situations.' Before I take this to Judge Hawthorne, I'm giving you one chance to explain yourself.”
This is how Court Marshal Davidson's greeting will start.
