Man walking.
:05:25
Put your left hand
on top of your head.

:05:32
Now the other one.
:05:35
We're at the gate.
:05:50
In the three years since
my client's incarceration...

:05:52
For the record,
a twelve-year sentence...

:05:54
for manslaughter
during a bank robbery.

:05:56
In the three years...
:05:58
since Michael Bosworth's
incarceration...

:06:00
he's completed the Johns Hopkins
creative writing workshop.

:06:03
In addition, I present
the court two letters...

:06:08
of character reference
from nationally known authors.

:06:11
And I'll produce transcripts...
:06:13
from the mothers of
two men he shot down...

:06:16
I'll also point out
that Michael Bosworth's I. Q...

:06:19
has been measured above 130.
:06:21
The prosecution concedes...
:06:23
that Michael Bosworth
is very intelligent...

:06:26
but we also know that he
always reverts to violence.

:06:28
The charge before the court
is attempted murder.

:06:31
It defies all reason
that Michael Bosworth...

:06:35
would jeopardize
a flawless prison record...

:06:37
by attacking a guard over...
:06:39
I'm not a case history!
:06:42
The defendant will speak
only when spoken to.

:06:44
I don't need...
:06:46
Bailiff, sit this man down!
:06:47
I don't need a rich girl's
self-serving charity!

:06:49
I'm just pro bono busy work
for her rich daddy's law firm!

:06:52
Bailiff, sit the man down!
:06:54
I want to go pro per!
I demand to represent myself!

:06:58
My life is in jeopardy from
every guard in that prison.
