The People Versus Lady Macbeth :: essays research papers

The People Vs. MacbethThe Macbeth trial broke out in full force today as the entire demesne of Scotland paid close attention to the small town court of Grahacknboroughsly, Scotland. The charges are for abuse of power, abuse of wealth, abuse of friendship and misuse of a regal sparing accent. As the parade of people came into the courthouse, 2/3rds of them were enemies of Macbeth. The social movement to dismiss came early on grounds of permanent death on Macbeths defense team. The motion was quickly dismissed as Macbeth was being quite lively for a dead King. The motion was not helped by the deceased ordering the judge to Lemme free, down the charges and get a haircut. The defense motion was further weakened by the comment, the judge can kiss my giant, royal behind. The trial soon got underway afterwards the court was able to settle Macbeth down. The Peoples witness list started off at the top and worked down. The first was Banquo, as he had been victimized by Macbeth early in t he tale and his testimony, as well as his casket, was getting stale. After hearing the testimony from Banquo, the Macbeth defense brought out their one and only witness, a stable boy, who looked as though he had been threatened with his life. The boys shaky and unseemingly well worded testimony went over very badly on the instrument panel side and the crowds side. The boy brought out the fact that Macbeth was blinded by the possibility of absolute power and wealth, and that he couldnt control his wifes demands until it was too late for the both of them. He also stated that the opportunity wouldnt make up been there if it werent for the kings cowardly sons and their flight from Scotland. This did not go over well for the side of the jury that was strongly pro Duncan (even though they were supposed to be non partisan, it was hard to find a soul who didnt love Duncan so much as to hate Macbeth.) The People now brought out the Weird sisters and their cauldron to make their testimony. As cryptic as it was, it revealed that they had positive(p) Macbeth to kill Duncan, even though it was not hard. The jury was heavily swayed by this revelation, the common thought was that it may not have been Macbeths fault. The sisters may have convinced him.
