:09:08
All right, Mr. Seiler,
we've been going for some time now.
:09:13
Would you prefer to make
your opening statement after recess?
:09:19
I would prefer to address
the jury now, Your Honor.
:09:25
What I have to say won't take long.
:09:31
I apologize if I look tired...
:09:35
...if my eyes are red...
:09:37
...if my complexion is sallow.
:09:40
But I came by it honestly.
:09:43
Because...
:09:45
...I have not had much sleep lately.
:09:47
For while my bed is soft...
:09:51
...my client's is not.
:09:53
And while I'm surrounded
by my loving family...
:09:58
...Jim Williams...
:10:00
...my friend...
:10:02
...my client...
:10:04
...is locked up in a room...
:10:06
...full of thieves,
murderers and rapists.
:10:13
You're the ones I want.
:10:15
You're the ones I trust.
:10:18
Because although it is Jim Williams
on trial here today...
:10:23
...when I look at the circumstances...
:10:26
...I think to myself...
:10:28
...there...
:10:29
...but for the grace of God,
go you...
:10:32
...or I.
:10:34
You know why?
Because I guaran-damn-tee you:
:10:37
Someone comes into my home
and shoot at me, I will shoot back.
:10:40
And I'll shoot back again and again...
:10:42
...and again,
until I'm sure that they're dead.
:10:45
Until I'm sure that my home
and my family are safe.
:10:54
And then...
:10:56
...old Finley here, my friend...
:10:58
...would be prosecuting me.
