Mr. Rifkin walked up to the microphone. He cleared his throat and nodded acknowledging the jury. Then he looked the judge straight in the eyes. The prosecution seems to have covered all the bases to satisfy habeas corpus. A man is dead. The whereabouts of his deceased form is known and under the control of the state and the alleged perpetrator of his death is in police custody. You honor I would like to congratulate the servants of the law on this feat. There is the further matter of the six other clones which were to have been identical with not only the one in custody but also the deceased, though physically more perfect in their recently. These the state is holding in protective custody for what reason? If it is because they are identically identifiable to the average person as the perpetrator of the deed and thus material witnesses then they should be brought forth and that fact established. Why are they not in court? I ask that the judge so order at this time. The defense wishes discovery of the differences between these and the one in custody. Rumor and innuendo has not established the so called flaw in the other six. Only my client, Dale Tarin, their maker has the means to establish the difference. I would ask that they all be remanded to his custody until he can properly adjudicate this matter.
