Post-trial Reflection

During my preparation for the trial, I was extremely nervous. I had heard that the prosecution never wins, so I was hopeful that I would have a chance to win. Of course, during the course of the trial I realized I would not have any chance of winning. The verses we learn in the Bible about God's law being higher than man's law knew that the audience would believe only the defense. I was glad that the case was as close as it was, but it was inevitable. All the preparing in the world could not win a lost battle. As the case went on I continued to realize that, and by the end of the trial I was resigned to the result of the case. It is a little discouraging to know that I couldn't win, and that it'd be impossible for me to succeed. It's impossible to turn people's biases, and this case really highlighted that fact in my opinion.
