The situation will be the same but the outcome can be different. The trial setting - there's judgment where I'm from too. Just as twisted in the favor for the one casting the first stone.

Whether some mass slaughter is their intention or that boy's fate was poor happenstance has remained to be seen... but... you must have chosen me and him for a reason.
I don't expect sympathy or mercy. I don't expect handouts. Like you and many others here - staff included - I want to live.
I'm just asking to perform the role you've so graciously given to me to the best of my ability.
