Warkworth Police Court By Madison and Nicholas.

Room 4 went to the Warkworth Court.

We had a mock trial called "Animal Court."

Mr Hare - Ryan was the complainant

Mr Fox - Nicholas was the prosecution lawyer

Ms Tortoise - Janice was the defendant

Ms Fleece - Rhianna was the defence lawyer

Court registrar - Emma

Judge Hooter - Lewis

Mr Stoat - Chloe, a witness

Mr Brown - Luka, a farmer witness

Head Juror- Blu

Jury - Rachel, Kaylee, Madison, Storm, Brandon,

Nathan, Lisa, Callum, Jasmine,Cameron.

Mr Hare was charging Mrs Tortoise with causing him to be poisoned when he ate the carrot, then he to sleep and Ms Tortoise won the race.

The evidence was heard from Mr Hare and Ms Tortoise. Then two witnesses were called, the stoat was doing a lot of lying and then Mr Brown the farmer admitted he had layed poison to stop Hare from eating his carrots.

Judge Hooter asked the jury to discuss the evidence. The head juror reported that 10 jury members thought Ms Tortoise was not guilty of poisoning Mr Hare and one jury member thought that Ms Tortoise was guilty or poisoning Mr Hare. So the juries verdict was not guilty!

Ms Tortoise was very thankful not to be thrown into the Warkworth Police jail!
