SO, does anyone remember the embezzlement/credit card fraud deal I helped to uncover a while back? The prosecutor has been talking to me the last few weeks, and called me yesterday to ask if I'd gotten my subpoena yet. I never check my mail, so I told him I hadn't, but that I'd look for it. It was in the mailbox, and it's for today, around 13:30. I have to call in between 12:30-13:00 to see if I have to go in.
I dislike courts, and legal stuff, and if it were entirely up to me, I'd just as soon skip it, but I can't allow myself to let her get away with what she did. I'm pretty much the star witness in this, and if I don't testify, she'll likely get off. I thought about dressing up a bit for court today, but then thought, "Fuck it, I'm just going to be comfortable". I'm not going to be a scrub or anything, but I'm just wearing jeans & my long-sleeve all-black Harley shirt. I did shave last night though - can't be looking *too* rough! ;-)
I really hope that I recognize her today - I haven't seen her in well over a year, and I was in pretty bad shape, emotionally, the last couple times I did (cat died on Thanksgiving, lost my job just before X-mas).
Gods, I don't really want to do this. I'm trying to think of it as "they just want your version of the story", not "you're gonna be putting her away!"
Man... I really don't like court; I've never even had to serve on a jury before. I don't like feeling nervous like this. If you want, wish me luck that I don't fuck this up somehow, because while I might feel a bit guilty for being responsible for her conviction, I'll feel even worse if I accidentally say something that will help her get out of it.
