Judging Time

“Judging Time” was originally written for MoviePoet’s June  2009 contest.    The assignment was that the entire story must take place inside a criminal court room, a judge’s chambers, or a jury room.

I wanted to write a story about time-travel and this is my first attempt at that.  Also, I wanted to put use of the “research” I had compiled from my feature “A Thousand Miles to Freedom”.  This project did that, too.
