all, on location in NY. Finally. I pulled this extract from this morning's
news broadcast. Looks like fun. And we're going into this? joy...
*****Inlclude Video Feed*****
This is Charlie Fingers live at the Metro Courthouse where only 10 minutes ago
began the trial of the decade, at least for this reporter. The Jackson trial,
involving years of alleged criminal activities and endangering public safety,
began truly when Dr. Jackson was lead from his armored and escorted Interpol
Riotmaster through a back entrance to avoid the mob, now estimated at 15000,
that had gathered out front{cut to Courthouse forecourt}
This was the scene just 15 minutes ago, with banners reading "Kill the Vamp!",
"Jesus hates the undead", and "Dr. Jackson, Dr. Death!", among others
towering
over the mob. Chants of "kill the vamp" and "we will, we will stake
YOU" to
the old Queen song of last century were predominant.
A small group of counter-protesters made a token appearance with signs reading
"Even Vampires have a right to life!" The mob booed them and then drove them
off with spirits and thrown bottles and rocks. They are not suspected to make
a second appearance.
Upon Dr. Jackson's arrival, the mob surged, attempting to get around the rear
of the Courthouse, but falling back when they were fired upon by the well armed
and armored Interpol agents. 30-40 were wounded and ambulances took the injuredto local
area hospitals.
But with the knowledge of Dr. Jackson's trial beginning, this reporter thinks
that it is only a matter of time before he gets caught out or his guards get
killed by weapons the mob acquires. I seriously doubt that he will survive to
see the end of his own trial.
This has been Charlie Fingers, good afternoon.
