Ladies and gentlemen of the jury: I am a mere public defendant, assigned to defend a person who is down and out in the worst way. I am not able to conjure up ghosts of victims fallen by unfortunate coincidence unproven under cross examination to have anything to do with my client. I must base my case on pure unadulterated fact, not tricks with mirrors. And you, my companions on this incredible trip through the halls of power in our country, must decide, given only what you have seen and heard in this court room, the guilt or innocence of my client, MacBeth. For him to even be here to be tried under the objective eye of the judicial system, is an unbelievable feat of perseverance and fortitude. So close to death MacBeth was, that only a miraculous escape from Dunsinane spared his life. The vicious attacks perpetrated by the prosecutor's so called witnesses could not end the story one chapter short. MacBeth chose on his own to finish the story, and come out of hiding, and come what may, put his life in the hands of justice. A far better deal he gets here in this courtroom than at the hands of bloodthirsty enemies. What can you say about a man who's life as crumbled about him? The prosecuting attorney levels all of the blame at MacBeth himself, and none at MacBeth's environment. He ignores the three fortune tellers, from part 1.
