This workshop was so awesome! I was debating whether or not I wanted to be a lawyer and this class showed me that I might want to becopme one. I had so much fun and I would reccomend this workshop for everyone. Even though it looks like we lost the case, the jury was wrong! But the whole trial was so much fun. I hope I can do thios again sometime because this was great. The instructors and assistants were so awesome and friendly and we had fun!

Today was the most fun and mystrious day. I loved this workshop. It was the most fun workshop I've done at Shodor. I really learned alot about forensic science but even more about law. Jabeen is a good teacher and looks like a pretty good lawyer. Everyone was friendly and nice. I would love to come back to this workshop and I will tell friends and family about it. I hope to come to the saturday workshop. I will miss everyone here at Shodor. Even though the first c lass this morning wasn't the best experince over all I had alot of fun and learned alot more than i learned in the M.S.E.N summer class. Thanks!

Aria
Today we started the case of the missing money. We talked to Matt Lathrop, who gave us a basis for evidence and clues to look for. The interns Jabeen and Wledah helped us collect clues and made sure we had search warrants so we wouldn't collect any illegal evidence. I hope we accuse the right person and they are brought to justice at our mock trial tomorrow. Just remember the truth will set you free!!!
Arielle
Today in class we did an investigation on who stole money and the keys to the annex. Today's class was fun. During the investigation we questioned people and found evidence about the crime. Tomorrow, we're going to start the trial, and I can't wait.
