Carl Lee Hailey:
Ask if he thinks I should go to jail.

Jake Tyler Brigance:
Carl Lee, they amputated his leg because you shot him. He's the prosecution's witness.

Carl Lee Hailey:
You're my lawyer ain't ya? Ask him.

Jake Tyler Brigance:
Your Honor, one question.

Judge Omar Noose:
Make up your mind, Mr. Brigance.

Jake Tyler Brigance:
Deputy Looney, do you think Carl Lee shooting you was intentional?

Deputy Dwayne Powell Looney:
No sir. It was an accident.

Carl Lee Hailey:
Ask him!

Jake Tyler Brigance:
Do you think he should be punished for shooting you?

Deputy Dwayne Powell Looney:
No, sir. I hold no ill will toward the man. He did what I would have done.

Jake Tyler Brigance:
What do you mean by that?

Deputy Dwayne Powell Looney:
I mean, I don't blame him for what he did. Those boys raped his little girl.

D.A. Rufus Buckley:
Objection, your Honor! The witness's opinion on this matter is irrelevant.

Jake Tyler Brigance:
Your Honor, I believe Deputy Looney has earned the right to speak here today.

Judge Omar Noose:
Overruled. Continue.

Jake Tyler Brigance:
Go ahead, Dwayne.

Deputy Dwayne Powell Looney:
I got a little girl. Somebody rapes her, he's a dead dog. I'll blow him away just like Carl Lee did.

D.A. Rufus Buckley:
Objection your Honor!

Jake Tyler Brigance:
Do you think the jury should convict Carl Lee Hailey?

Judge Omar Noose:
Don't answer that question.

Deputy Dwayne Powell Looney:
He's a hero. You turn him loose.

Judge Omar Noose:
The jury will disregard...

Deputy Dwayne Powell Looney:
Turn him loose!

D.A. Rufus Buckley:
Your honor, you silenced that witness!

Deputy Dwayne Powell Looney:
You turn him loose!
