FIVE MINUTES LATER
“Phew... Alright, are we done yet?”
“The...incident is dealt with, Your Honor. It appears some fool in the gallery by the name of Lorenzo Mckenzie had cast a pain transference magic between him and his brother. Then someone angry with him kicked him in the shin. Realizing the spell's effect, they attempted to counter it with a set of voodoo dolls and kicked him again, which ended up making it hurt more for both of them. We managed to take all three in for questioning, but this Lorenzo will probably be arrested for unlawfully binding himself to another person without their consent. Anyways, as far as I can tell, none of them are directly related to the case at hand, so we can continue with the trial. Thankfully.”
“And the accusations the brother made against Ms. Irving?”
Mr. Vulpes grins. “That's what the defense is for. Right now, I simply state that Ms Irving did her job as best she could. She entered the premises to arrest the suspect, and was obstructed by Ms. Hagane. When she warned Ms. Hagane to stand down, the bartender attacked her, forcing her to defend herself. Seeing as they were both of superhuman strength, the damage to the furniture was unfortunate, but not liable to Ms. Irving, especially since she tried to defend herself with her firearm before being forced into a melee."
"The defense will get to it. We aren't here to insult each others' character."
