More pics from today's Government Mock Trial

Seniors Mrs. Nashberry's Government classes held a mock trial today that they have spent the past two weeks preparing for.  They played roles such as the prosecution, defense, jurors, and bailiffs/deputies.  They learned the proper procedures for these roles while conducting a trial about a "murder."  Other students and staff played roles as witnesses to the crime.  All did a great job sticking to their roles!
