Steven Hill: DA Adam Schiff

Quotes 

• Adam Schiff : Cloudy, muddy, murky. The jury has enough reasonable doubt to bottle it and sell it.

  Paul Robinette : You can hear Willis in summation: "The defendants lied because they were scared. Yes they owned a gun, but did they use it?"

  Ben Stone : Marian Borland. What did she tell the cops? "The kids were competitive, it was unhealthy." The only unhealthy competition was hers, for her son's glory.

  Adam Schiff : Are you prosecuting or preaching?

  Ben Stone : She pulled the trigger. Not physically...

  Adam Schiff : Oh, metaphysically.

  Ben Stone : She harped on the Chong kid every day. Why did Randy kill him? You kick a dog long enough, it bites.

  Paul Robinette : You want to try that in your summation?

  Adam Schiff : It won't get you a conviction.

  Ben Stone : Might get us a deal.
