(no subject)

I'll have a more serious update some time this weekend. I first wanted to wish happy Ostara/Equinox to everyone who celebrates it ^_^

This week, I went to Toronto overnight, and pored over old trial records. Nothing much was there -- these were ordinary people, their crimes uncontroversial, and they were dispensed with quickly.

Still, I got some information that can help reconstruct the circumstances: names of witnesses, for example, which help create a sense of the context of the crime. It's enough that I can probably say what what happened in two of the trials.

While I was going to Toronto to look up these very serious and real trials, I spent much of the train-ride playing the very strange courtroom-drama game, Phoenix Wright 4 (or, I guess, technically Ace Attorney 4).
