Description

12 Angry men(1957) is a movie about a boy on trial for the murder of his father, 11 jurors see the boy as guilty, but the 8th juror disagrees, by the end of the film all 12 jurors vote not guilty, saving the boy from execution.

Here is a great cover of the case in question READ BEFORE EXCEPTING---

BOP is on me, as the juror number 8 points out the BOP is on the prosecution.

Any changes to the rating status, voting period, or time for argument will be addressed by me if I am okay with making said change.

I hope to have a debate on an amazing film.

Reason:

Pro did the superior job defending his argument. The times of the man hearing the stabbing are in line with the times the women stated she saw the killing and the coroners death report. The time alignment was touched on by Con in his 1 rebuttal. Pro accurately points out that it makes no sense for a woman who normally wears glasses in court not to wear them the day she's in court as well. Con doesn't respond to further arguments in rounds 2 and 3 therefor forfeiting the debate.
