Opening Argument

Exhibit A: The Plausible Link

The Hidden Danger

The prosecution imagines that this incident is just the tip of the iceberg, revealing a larger conspiracy of negligence and incompetence that traces back to the highest levels of government.

Closing Argument

The prosecution urges the jury to consider the implications of this outbreak and hold accountable those whose policies allowed it to happen.
