Docket #423763. People vs. Jacqueline Scott. Charge is murder in the first degree.
That's as good as it gets. What's your plea?
Not guilty, your honor.
My client is a valued member of the community. She employs thousands of New Yorkers who depend on her for their salary.
Does she have a cat? I like cats.
The state asks for remand without bail. Miss Scott's wealth makes her a flight risk.
Since when is financial success a criminal offense?
So, let's say we make her that much less offensive. Bail is set at 2,000,000 cash.
Your honor, this defendant could hop on a private plane as easily as you and I could get on the subway.
But can she get a cab in the rain? I'll take your passport, too, Miss Scott.
For added assurance, the People also request an electronic ankle bracelet and house arrest.
Don't fret, Miss Scott. Maybe you can cook up some matching accessories. [bangs gavel] Next.
