However, a key witness was caught in an act of perjury, and the defense attorney, known for his swarthy determination, pounced on this inconsistency. He intended to puzzle out the vagaries of the case and prove his client's innocence. The defendant, though nervous, remained plucky, placing his trust in his legal counsel.
