This morning the courtroom erupted with cheers. The accused was declared free and handed papers. They had already paid an unfair price, but the truth was finally allowed to be told. The witness was outside waiting! The shiny engine was ready to go! Let’s split!! The lawyers knew why it had taken so long for the truth to come out. The opposition’s message was to strive to block truth telling, and they never expected the truth to be delivered to the court on the wings of an owl.
