Your jury record
Opening Argument
The prosecution argues that the tragic death of a Ghanaian boy in the United States is not just a local incident but a direct consequence of the reckless policies endorsed by Trump. The prosecution alleges that the lack of arrests in this case is emblematic of a broader failure in the justice system, one that Trump has exacerbated through his divisive rhetoric.
Exhibit A: The Plausible Link
The prosecution submits that the ongoing investigation, which has yet to yield any arrests, reflects a culture of impunity that has flourished under Trump's administration. The prosecution imagines that this culture has emboldened criminals, leading to tragic outcomes like this one.
The Domino Effect
The Hidden Danger
The prosecution urges that if this trend continues, we may see more innocent lives lost, all while Trump remains indifferent.
Closing Argument
In the prosecution's theory, the death of this boy is a tragic reminder of the consequences of Trump's negligence.
Verdict
The prosecution alleges: The prosecution demands justice, not just for this boy, but for all victims of Trump's policies.
