7. People v. Taitano (2002)

A girl who had been kidnapped and abused within her own apartment complex comes to the stand to give her attacker a prison sentence. Difficulties arise when the both parties admit to a candy exchange on more than one instance. Given the fact that Taitano's roommate had a record of child abuse, the defense tries to persuade a jury that the roommate had been the perpetrator in the incident. Despite a believable plea, the defense does not sway the jury...fully.
