( ooc: dated to a bit earlier in the evening. )
[ Edgeworth is sitting his room tonight as he address the network; someone who knew him well might suggest that he looks tired - exhausted, even - but if questioned about it, he'll just deny it. ]
Good evening, fellow transports. For those of you I've yet to meet, my name is Miles Edgeworth and I am a prosecuting attorney.
Tonight, I bring forward to you all an idea that I have been considering since my arrival here last month. As some of you may know, Exsilium currently has no internal judicial system. That is, no police, no courts, no prisons... and even worse, no laws. Both in light of recent events and out of concern for possible future occurrences, it would be my preference to implement some sort of system to deal with inter-transport conflicts.
I am willing to work to my full capacity to ensure the functionality of such a system and all that it entails, but I do acknowledge that I am only one person, and I cannot achieve my goals alone. So, I ask: who amongst us would be willing to assist me in this matter, so that we can ensure a safe and just society for all of us who have been brought here?
And a second question, if you don't mind: I am aware that there are many individuals from a wide array of disparate alternate realities, and that the judicial system as I know it might not exist where you are from. If this applies to you, I would welcome any information about how crime was handled in your reality.
Thank you for your time.
[ At the end, he submits a text version of his main points for reference: ]
1. Would you be willing to assist with the creation of a transport-run judicial system and an accompanying set of laws?
2. If your judicial system differs from the one I have briefly described, how does it differ, and what aspects did you like/dislike about this system?
I will answer any further questions or discourse on this topic, and you are of course free to discuss it amongst yourselves.

[ Cue one teenager with her chin in her hand, elbow on the table, tilting her head to the side and quirking up an eyebrow.
She smiles a little after her question. ]
I'm glad to help. I just wonder where we're planning on keeping the lawbreakers and stuff like that.

And I did mention the three aspects of my reality's judicial system: the police, the courts, and corrections. The police force deals with the prevention and detection of crime, and has the power to arrest those thought to be involved in criminal activity. Then, suspects are brought into detention, where they are kept until they can either pay bail, or for serious crimes - until their case goes to trial. Trials occur in a court of law. In a criminal trial in my country, a prosecuting attorney represents the state and presents the case of the defendant - that is, the accused - to the court. The defendant has the right to have a defense attorney [ and it's almost imperceptible, the way Edgeworth's jaw clenches when he says those words - he'd promised himself that he'd keep this broadcast as unbiased as possible, but the thought of those types of lawyers still make him angry ], to defend their case and potentially prove the defendant's innocence.
After a guilty verdict has been declared, there is usually another trial held for sentencing. For the length of a sentence, for serious crimes, the culprit is kept in prison, where rehabilitation occurs safely away from the rest of society. However, the death penalty was not uncommon, as well.
Do you follow?

2. Basically, there's no justice system. If you do something against the Charter - that's our absolute law - you're going to be locked away in our prison forever. If you're accused, that's it. Even speaking against Charter is against the Charter, so, things are pretty peaceful, but our prison is pretty full too. And everyone's a little bit scared, honestly.

Also:
Evidence is a vital aspect of determining guilt in a court of law. Criminal proceedings cannot function without it. This is not something I wish to change.
As a matter of course, I would not have a child suffer the consequences of a parent's crime.
2. Who is responsible for ensuring that people follow the rules of this 'Charter'? Is it the government?

1. Yes.
2. It's about the same as yours. Maybe with some regional differences not worth discussing.
[ Adam's very to the point, you see. ]

2. The judicial system in my world seems to be the same. However, considering circumstances in Exsilium, one will have to take into account just how different one person is from another and should some strange circumstances arise, they would not be ignored. In one of my last cases, the suspects were taken at face value, causing the case to be considered closed prematurely several times. This is largely a problem with the people instead of the system itself, but it is still something I believe is worth keeping in mind.

2. Do you have any specific examples of such 'strange circumstances'?

Though my system is simple, it is difficult to execute for many as it requires the judge have absolutely no bias and stays completely neutral.
ahh, sorry for the late! i've been ill.
It's okay.
