According to Petrocelli, what is this case about?

• This case is about a crime that was committed on the 22nd of December, in which an innocent man Alguinaldo Nesbitt, was brutally murdered.
• This case is about monsters.
• In this case we're not just trying criminals. Our whole justice system is on trial here. Deals for information, criminals racing to see who can rat out the others first to get a reduced sentence. Wha thas our court system come to? With your verdict you're not only judging the facts of the case;you are judging our entire justice system.
• This case is about truth and survival. Who is telling the truth, and who is just trying to survive?

What main point is Not a part of Briggs closing arguments to the jury:

• Bobo implicates King because the police have him on a criminal matter and have offered him a deal.
• Mrs. Henry's mind was on her granddaughter; She could have been mistaken about King's identity.
• King was desperate to acquire some money; he was broke.
• This case is about whether or not you believe people who are admitted participants in this crime and who are saving their own hides. If you believe that their positions, their stated characters, so taint their testimony that everything they say is well within the area of reasonable doubt, then you have no choice but to find King not guilty.
