Jim testified for himself during the afternoon, presenting as good a narrative as Jeff's. He's due to continue on Monday. Both Jim and Jeff made little use of exhibits, and an observer might think their testimony was scripted by a single writer: both had been well-rehearsed in acting style and voice direction to perform a single story with two views of the same events, both equally compelling or unbelievable depending on what a viewer wanted to see. The main difference is that Jeff has the backing of a luxurious justice system: the courthouse, the judge, the agents of several TLAs, guards, marshals, SEATAC, and much more. Jim has a roll of the dice with the jurors, all of whom are dressed and look more like Jim than the mani-uniformed officials (most better dressed than, say, like me). Jim has no witnesses, Judge Jack denied all requests, compared to a couple of dozen for the government. Most of Jim's request for discovery have been denied, while the gov gets all it asks for. Judge Jack denied Jim's request for access to his own notes use during his testimony. Jim has so far demonstrated that he is several grades of intelligence above that of his official tormentors. And far less prejudicial. So what if the show is scripted that way, that the hero is doomed to be condemned by the king's police, that is crowd-pleasing anti-revolutionary politics. And blood-quickening incendiary.
