Independent Component #1

Here are pictures of the depositions that I took for the mock trial. There are eight depositions for each witness, excluding the police officer that filed the case.

Depositions are meetings held in which a witness gives their testimony for a case. What they say is typed word for word by a court reporter, who must be present at all times. The court reporter must record everything that happens, even when they talk. The witness is advised to speak slow, speak clearly, and respond with a yes, no, or maybe because "uh huh" is not a defined word for an answer.
