BY DAVIS:

May it please the Court, Mr. Stidham, ladies and gentlemen of the jury. I know at this point, we're all tired. We spent weeks in preparing this case. While a lot of times while y'all have been out in the hall, we've been in here at each other's throat, and we're all tired and we all have a great deal of responsibility.

Um, during the prosecution's closing argument, I got a little confused. And for a minute there, I actually thought Dr. Richard Ofshe was on trial instead of Jessie Misskelley. I think there's a reason for that, ladies and gentlemen of the jury, and I think the reason is clear.

What this is talking about is responsibility.
