The Chosen (2003)

Frank Birney: Judge Warren West

Quotes 

• Ellenor Frutt : The cyanide came from her mother's photo lab. Evidently, it's used in developing pictures.

  Jamie Stringer : It explains the simple suicide note, written by a 10-year-old.

  A.D.A. Mark Campbell : I need to talk to her.

  Atty. Marsha Singleton : I can't allow that.

  A.D.A. Mark Campbell : Look, you're going to have to help me out here, otherwise...

  Atty. Marsha Singleton : I'm assigned to help the girl, not you. Trust me. She's not talking.

  Judge Warren West : And if I were to subpoena her?

  Atty. Marsha Singleton : She'll plead the Fifth unless, of course, you'd like to grant total immunity.

  A.D.A. Mark Campbell : Well, if I can't speak to her, I have no new evidence, and therefore...

  Ellenor Frutt : Actually, you do. Jamie and I are witnesses as is Tara Wilson, our assistant. We heard the girl confess.

  A.D.A. Mark Campbell : And I'm to take your word? You represent the guy!

  Ellenor Frutt : No, actually we would have to recuse ourselves now because we've become witnesses. Look, I pull a lot of stunts. In this trial alone, pointing the finger at the sister. It was a tactic, a part of the game, but as an officer of the court, I am here before you now as is Jamie telling you, this was not a stunt.
