Thank you for the suggestions. I pulled some scenes from Murder One, from a first season LA Law episode (before they became a cartoon), and some courtroom scenes from Homicide: Life on the Street. I also added the opening scene from The Paper Chase where the teacher is so intimidating he makes his student throw up… while it is in law school and not a courtroom per se, it’s always good to prepare students for what is to come.
