"So you are a self professed pirate, an unwed mother... who has committed grand theft Starship... Very reliable as a witness..." he shook his head.
"I have no futher questions for this... woman." he waved his hand dismissively.
"No futher questions your honour," Templeman said.
Templeman was on his feet a second later, "the Defence calls Jason Nagger to the stand..." he leaned down to whisper in the boys ear. "I don't want to do this, but we have to buy some more time..."
Once the youth was on the stand, the Prosecutor was sitting forward, salivating at the prospect of roasting the youth alive in his cross-examination.
Templeman had no choice, it was do or die, literally. The Rhienland Authorities would incarcerate Christian Naggar and his son for a very long time if he didn't do something... anything to show the human side of the Naggar family.
"Hey Jason,' Templeman said warmly, looking at the frightened schoolboy. "Take your time, don't worry. Can you tell us all, about what life was like aboard your father's ship?"
