Anya looked at the Jury panel who didn't meet her eyes. Even Jason avoided her eyes by looking at the report that was on the desk.
Was she overthinking? She hoped she was overthinking.
The Chief Justice met her wary eyes. He was aware she wouldn't be satisfied with the judgment. He tried to brief up so that she could understand the situation.
"Bernard Collins is the President of the country. The first citizen of the country till the period of his service. He is a highly respected and reputed leader of the country."
By this time, Anya's face was dark as coal. Her fingers curled into tight fists and clenched her teeth. She tried her best to refrain from changing her opinions immediately.
The Chief Justice continued, "If the actions of Bernard Collins leaks to the public, people will lose hope in the leaders, there could be riots and the country will be affected economically, politically, and administratively."
