Anthony Keane, Counsel for the Defense:
Members of the jury, the woman who is before you in the dock is a foreigner. Friendless and alone in a strange country. But a country that, thank heaven, has always prided itself on its passion for justice. I had intended to call before you numerous witnesses on her behalf. To speak of her character, of her self-sacrifice. A sacrifice made cheerfully by a beautiful woman while still fascinating, still young, in order to bring the light of affection into the darkness of a blinded man's life
