Opening Statements

[quote=Prosecution]Jane Doe is a criminal. She has ruined the life of a beloved teenager, and snatched the moments of happiness, however few, that may have been present in Julie Sanchez's life. Her vicious is act is in no way justifiable, she has intentionally caused pain and suffering for not only this innocent teenager, but also her family who have spent weeks praying for Julie's life. Ms. Doe claims to wanting to teach a child a lesson for making a mockery of her own daughter, Diane, but all Mrs. Doe has done is ruin a young girl's life. She has forced her to the extent that she would want to take her own life. She has pushed her to limits where even the best of adults are carried away. If Mrs. Doe was sincerely worried for her daughter, and wanted to rectify this situation, she should have spoken to Mr. Sanchez, she should have known better than to become a teenager herself and seek revenge. In the end, she has done nothing but endangered not only Julie, but also her own daughter's innocence. What makes Mrs. Doe think that her act is justified? What gives Mrs. Doe the right to decide who ought to live and who should not? Mrs. Doe's act was cruel and vicious, and meant to cause young Julie harm in any and every way possible. I find it highly disappointing that mature adults in our society can behave so viciously and then criticize other teenagers for making life hard for their own children. Instead of forcing Julie upon her own death, Mrs. Doe should have attempted to help this motherless girl, to talk to her, to make her understand and guide her in picking right over wrong. Instead, Mrs. Doe has decided to take the law in her own hands and her cruel intentions have left young Julie at the brink of death.

[quote=Defense]All the allegations on mrs jane doe about leading julie to the brink of death are false, fabricated and absolutely baseless and hence i request my able friends WA and one_ashi to not waste the court's and the jury's precious time .

My able friend and opponent has very cleverly accomplished in meddling ethics with law, a round of applause for that... However even if we side step LAW for now... there are many ethical counterpoints to what she has said and which I will now mention...

Furthermore I would like to point out a few things:


Extracts of AIM chat transcript between Jackie and Diane

Jackie: You have been lying to me Julie
Julie: Why do you say things like that?
Jackie: Because it is true. You sleep with every boy you meet. I could list all the boys, its endless.
Julie: I'm sorry Jackie. I'm not like that anymore.
Jackie: Don't lie. You are a slut and a whore. You just cheat and sleep with people.
Julie: Please don't say that Jackie. Give me a chance.
Jackie: People like you don't deserve second chances. I wish I had never met you. I wish you were dead.
Julie: You don't mean that don't you.
Jackie: Don't you feel any shame for what you did. Don't you wish you were dead? You are a sick person. I'd rather be dead than a slut like you. You should be repenting for your actions.


The language used by Mrs Doe was disturbing, and would've been so not just for a young vulnerable teenager but even an adult! The use of the phrase 'I wish you were dead' was far too harsh and not at all needed yo use with an impressionable mind like a young teenage girl! Even after Julie has tried to explain that she has amended her ways and that is no longer like that Mrs Doe aka 'Jackie' continues to abuse her and humiliate her!

Even if we put aside humanity, whatever Mrs Doe is against law legislation and must be punished severly! Mrs Doe had no right to take the law in her hands whatever the reason or provocation! Being the adult she should have behaved like one. Yet she didn't, with her disdainful behaviour she has scarred girl for life as well as disturbed a normal family for ever. More horrifyingly so Mrs Doe has displayed how brutal online conversations can be and she has thrashed and dishonoured the law with her pitiful plea of not guilty!

Questioning from the prosecution will proceed in due time! 😉
