Law Merit Badge Pow Wow

70 YM just completed the Law Merit Badge on April 27.

We had a lot of fun learning about the law from Dan Roden (history expert and breaker of laws), Brent Winder (Attorney), and Don Davis (Head of Forest Service Law Enforcement for the Mountain Region).
We then participated in a mock trial of The Trix Rabbit.  The Rabbit was accused of contract breach by eating his own cereal, which is strictly forbidden and illegal. The prosecution made some great points and introduced some key evidence, including pictures of the crime and testimony from the Rabbit himself.  However, the defense won the day by convincing the jury that the box in the pictures was not Trix, but Ritz Crackers.

Thanks to all the fine men who participated and to the YM and their parents for showing up and being gentlemen.
