Chris Vaughn:
[speaking to the jury]
I don't deny anything that was said here today.
Judge L. Powell:
Does that mean you're changing your plea to guilty?
Chris Vaughn:
I'm not guilty of anything... except standing up for myself when the law wouldn't.
County Prosecutor:
Objection. He's trying to introduce prior events, Your Honor.
Judge L. Powell:
Sustained. Mr. Vaughn, stay on point.
Chris Vaughn:
[continues to address the jury]
I grew up in this town. People used to walk tall in this town. They wouldn't have traded the mill for a crooked casino.
Judge L. Powell:
Mr. Vaughn, we're not here to listen to civic speeches.
Chris Vaughn:
And they wouldn't have stood around while drugs were being sold to kids.
County Prosecutor:
Objection!
Judge L. Powell:
Sustained. Mr. Vaughn, you're close to being held in contempt.
Chris Vaughn:
I was justified in what I did. And if you acquit me of these charges, then I'm gonna run for sheriff.
Judge L. Powell:
Mr. Vaughn.
Chris Vaughn:
And if elected, I'm gonna fix this town.
Judge L. Powell:
Order! Order!
[pounds the gavel]
Judge L. Powell:
Please take your seat!
Chris Vaughn:
[starts to unbutton his shirt]
Judge L. Powell:
Mr. Vaughn, you are now charged with contempt.
Chris Vaughn:
And I will make sure that THIS...
[reveals his brutal scars from a knife]
County Prosecutor:
Objection!
Judge L. Powell:
Sustained!
Chris Vaughn:
...never happens to anyone again without punishing those who did it.
Judge L. Powell:
I'm ordering the jury to ignore what they've just seen!
