Mary Pason, Lawyer Extraordinaire, she wins cases before they even get to trial. She is representing Ned Collie.
As a good defense lawyer, she acknowledges Ned committed his alleged crimes. This is going to be a tough case, tougher than a steel-lined outhouse. And full of just as much… nonsense.
She needs character witnesses to prove that Ned’s crimes where justified. She needs photomancy evidence of the Judge’s lawlessness. With your Wizard’s help she is able to get Ned acquitted.
Perry Mason is a fictional character, an American criminal defense lawyer who is the main character in works of detective fiction written by Erle Stanley Gardner.
