day 39

Yesterday was a long day, of course it was the only night I slept and then had to get up to go to court early.
If you ever need good people watching you should go to the San Fernando courthouse for an hour. I had a half-day of entertaining people watching. Karen and I stood out like you wouldn’t believe. I sure people were looking at us and wondering what crime we committed to be there.

So back to us standing out so much in the courtroom the bailiff actually asked us after a couple case what we were doing in the courtroom. I told him what were doing then he just had this heart felt look of I’m sorry on his face and then when we was bringing Valencia out of the courtroom the bailiff was looking directly at me.
I got to talk to the DA for a little bit to get some questions answered but he is pretty confidante that will all the evidence and witness that he will be convicted. How ever after sitting in the court for the morning watching all the people get off with less than a slap on the wrist I’m not to confident in our legal system. We saw at least 6 people walk into the courtroom for their case in handcuffs, including Valencia. They were in blue clothes not the orange you see on TV incase anyone was wondering what they were wearing. I guess orange is so last season.

So after the big build up of the day it was less than 2minutes because the other attorney needs more time before they set the date for the trial so I will have to do it all over on September 29th.

After that ordeal we decided that lunch at The Grove was needed, since I don’t drink or else I would have had one. Lunch was good as always, no celebrity sightings though.

When we got close to home I had a thought that I should go by the CHP to see if the police report is finished. Sure enough they just finished it and I got my copy, which states that Valencia doesn’t think he hit the cyclist he said he drove by the accident and they were already crashed. He did admit to being under the influence and drinking at a friend’s house. The DA said that Valencia really doesn’t show any remorse and really doesn’t think he hit them.

Not too much I can say about that…
