Lawyers, in their attempts to make sure their clients' rights were
protected, sometimes made the situation a lot more complicated that it
needed to be. "Why don't you start with telling us why you paid Commander
Shevab a visit this morning, Mr. Leaver."
Greene eyed the behemoth. He was surprised to see the lower-ranking,
rock-like creature speaking. He would hav ethought that Lt. Holt would
take the lead of the questioning. While she was clearly in charge, it was
evident that others would be jumping in on the interview. He turned to
his client and nodded.
"I was just visiting Mr. Shevab. We are both in the same department,
though in different facilities. I was hoping that I could get a tour to
see how things are done up here."
"Was there any reason that you felt in necessary to try and get that
information at phaser point, Mr Leaver" asked Aravis with biting sarcasm.
It was clear that she was not quite accepting his response.
Adam went ashen and clammy looking pretty quickly. "Well ... ah ... you
know."
Greene placed his hand in front of Adam. It was clear that he wanted to
slow things down a bit before his client ended up saying something he would
regret. "Let us not play any games folks. It is clear that you know Mr.
Leaver was there and was holding Mr. Shevab. There is no way for us around
that. What will you offer if he pleads guilty?" It was blunt, forward, and
surprising.
Valtris raised an eyebrow. This was not an approach she was used to. She
did have to admit that what he said was true. "Mr. Greene, I think you
misunderstand the situation. We have your client in prison with no
challenges. I don't think that there is anything that he could do to have
that changed. We are hear because we want to know everything he knows about
the Brotherhood." If Greene wanted to play honest and blunt, she would do
the same.
Greene visibly snared in response. "What makes you so sure that this situation or my client have any ties to that organization?"
(response?)
