[Naoya and Dilandau are safely behind bars in the tunnels, secured and locked away with no weapons. And right now he made sure to take every key to the prisons and secure the entrance with a padlock of his own. It should be strong enough to hold anyone attempting to break them out for now.
First thing's first. He needs to track down the woman named Yuzu that Naoya spoke to. She did not sympathize with him, but knows of him and his weapon system. Possessing Dilandau's COMP, he will actively seek her out for questioning and follow up on any leads he can.]
[Voice]
[After speaking with Yuzu and following up where the leads take him, Batman will reluctantly open a voice communication. Someone has to make the announcement. He's not much of a talker and he's never been good with people. But it needs to be done.]
Attention, citizens of Luceti. Dilandau and Naoya have been detained in the murder of Kohaku, a fellow citizen of Luceti. They will remain in custody until such a time that the people of this village agree on a just punishment or until they are properly tried by a court of law. That is all.

Impartiality is vital to a court of law. Like it or not, you are a figure whose public image is less than that.

How interested are you in justice, Nu?

Date: 2010-04-14 09:38 pm (UTC)...There's something she's curious about, though.]
...Was... that murder the only reason as to why the criminals were detained? [That's what it sounded like to her, but asking for a confirmation can't hurt, can it?]

Date: 2010-04-14 09:46 pm (UTC)If you say so. I'm more inclined that it would make others less likely to try and bribe me, but, as you say.

Date: 2010-04-14 11:59 pm (UTC)[In Gotham City, the people are protected by three separate, but equally important groups. The police, who arrest offenders, the district attorneys that prosecute them, and the goddamn Batman.][Batman nods in the picture frame.]
Courts in Gotham City consist of a judge, a jury, and lawyers that represent the defendant and the prosecution. The judge's duty is to preside over the case, making sure all affairs go according to the rule of law. The prosecution attempts to prove the guilt of the defendant by producing evidence and calling witnesses for testimonal statements that may prove their case. The defense attorney's job is the opposite, presenting evidence in the defense of their client. Both may call objections to the judge if they believe that the opposing lawyer has overstepped decorum in court.
Central to all of this is a jury of impartial individuals who hear the case. It is their job to determine the guilt or innocence of the defendant based solely upon the evidence produced in court by the two sides. Once both sides have concluded their arguments, the jury deliberates in private until a verdict is reached. When the verdict is handed down, the judge decides the sentence or acquits the defendant depending on the result.
