To all who read these precepts, the following transcript of this trial is true and correct, to the best of my knowledge.
Clera, reporting.

[Haengemie] <standard pre-trial court briefing>
[Chum] Christopher has been following me aronud being for coins pretty much non-stop since I woke-up this morning.
[Chum] I told him several times that I would not give him coins, and politely explained that no one like beggers.
[Chum] I then went to the pub to relax, and he continued badgering me.
[Chum] I asked him to stop several times.
[Chum] He then dragged me outside and asked others to pester me, too.
[Chum] Atomical and Golden.
[Haengemie] 10 seconds remaining, Please finish up, or say "done"...
[Chum] I realize Lilit is not the most popular of you, but she witnessed this part.
[Haengemie] Thank you, Chum
[Chum] (more later)
[Haengemie] Christopher, you have 90 seconds to speak.
[Christopher] I wanted some money and I asked Chum and he said no
[Christopher] then i asked if he want to play cards for maoney and didnt talk fo thirty secon
[Haengemie] 10 seconds remaining, Please finish up, or say "done"...
[Haengemie] Thank you, Christopher
[Haengemie] Chum, you have 120 seconds to speak.
[Chum] He continued to harrass me, asking Atomical and Golden to also harrass, all in front of Lilit
[Chum] I asked him repeatedly toeave me alone.
[Chum] He said He would not, until I gave him 100,000c, which I find a bit outlandish.
[Chum] To be honest, I'm a bit fed-up with peole follwoing me around saying CHum give me this, chum give me taht.
[Chum] I urge you to make an example of Christopher by finding him guilty (of his own admission)
[Chum] and recommending a maximum jail time. Hopefully he and others will learn from your verdict.
[Chum] This is not just for me, but for all who are harrassed by people who just don't know when to let up.
[Chum] For me. FOr you. For Puddleby.
[Chum] Guilty. max Jail time. I beg you.
[Haengemie] 10 seconds remaining, Please finish up, or say "done"...
[Chum] done.
[Haengemie] Thank you, Chum
[Haengemie] Christopher, you have 120 seconds to speak.
[Christopher] first i said 10,000c and he didnt respond so i said a higher price and he didnt respond
[Christopher] so i riased the price
[Christopher] then i pushed him outside to talk to him
[Christopher] and then he finally talked to me
[Christopher] done
[Haengemie] Thank you, Christopher
