"Will the defendant please stand." I rose. "Chairperson of the jury, have you reached a verdict?"
"We have."
"Do you find the defendant guilty or not guilty?"
"Guilty." I fell to the seat. Charlotte helped me up.
"Miss Maddox, you have been found guilty of attempted murder, I sentence you to 15 years and a fine of $10000. And when you give birth, you will be permitted to go to a mother and baby unit." I began to cry. I looked at Shane and Marissa; I saw her smile. Shane looked shocked. He approached Charlotte as I was taken away.
Charlotte came down to the cell. She came in and dismissed the guard.
"Shane gave me this for you." she gave me a piece of paper. "I'm sorry."
"See ya in fifteen." I said as she left. I looked at the note.
'Kara,
Why didn't you tell me? Look after yourself.
Shane'
Short and sweet.
