Author's Note:  Hello to all my faithful followers, readers, and everyone that reads this story, I am sorry for the delay in uploading this chapter but first of all I had writer's block and I had to wait until I was clear of it and I also needed to get everything with Stanley and Elaine's Court hearing right before I actually uploaded it on here so sorry again once more.Golden-author.




Soon Elaine was ready to go, she was wearing the dress Cole bought for her and also one of the shoes he bought too her hair was looking great with the new clip in it too.

The guard escorts her upfront from the police station to Chief Wilson and DCI Robinson. And there was a change of plan also, the two officers thought it would be better if Elaine went with her lawyer Mr. Faulkner, very soon Cole drove up in his Austin martin car but he didn't bother to park it or turn off the engine after seeing the time it was already 3:12.

After Chief Wilson told Elaine that she would be going with Mr. Faulkner cause there was a change of plan  Dci Robinson handed Elaine her black handbag that they kept back since the day of Elaine's arrest. Elaine got into Cole's car she sat at the back they greeted each other.

And Cole drove straight to the magistrate court, with DCI and Chief Wilson's car behind him, soon they arrived at the court  Cole park his car in a tight space alongside some other cars and got out and open the door for Elaine and help her out. In front of the court, steps were in flux and a lot of angry white people were standing there shouting " HANG MOORE" "HANG MOORE" and some had signs that had a drawing of a black woman with a thick yellow rope around her neck hanging from a tree.

The chief came over and guarded Elaine against those angry people who wanted to see her dead.

After  Cole let himself know to the court usher and who's hearing it was the time of the hearing too, Elaine and  Cole took a seat until the Judge called for the hearing, but before Elaine and Cole went inside the courtroom, Cole reminded Elaine everything she could not do once they were inside the courtroom. They both walk off inside the courtroom.

Poor Elaine was getting all the death glares from Harrelson's family and friends but she knew better Elaine knew she was a better person than every one of them who gave her death glares and all, now Elaine and Cole were sitting in their seats, and Stanley and his lawyer Gregory Hale was sitting in their's  Elaine Dr. Mrs. Knight was there too and also Gretchen Kane Stanley's next-door neighbor was there too she sat in the third bench behind Elaine and Mr. Faulkner.

She said she saw the whole incident of how Stanley killed his own brother outside their front door and roll him up in a white blanket.

And she was willing to testify against Mr. Harrelson because he needed to realize that the world didn't revolve around him.

"All rise"  "presenting Judge Tyler  Marshall to the courtroom ". The court security announced  Everyone stood including the Jurors(aka) the Jury after Judge Marshall took his seat. " Please be seated everyone,"  Judge Marshall told the courtroom, and everyone took their seats once again.

" Counsellors would you please approach the bench?" the  Judge ask both  Mr. Faulkner and Mr. Hale to approach the bench so they went up there and they handed the Judge some paper works, the Judge look at both of their works and handed it back to them and send Mr. Hale back to his seat and told Mr. Faulkner about the eyewitness Mrs. Gretchen Kane who claims that she saw the whole incident with the Harrelson brothers on may fourteenth 1950, then after Judge Marshall send Mr. Faulkner back to his seat too.
