The People of the State of California v. George Milton

All rise! The People of the State of California vs. George Milton. How do you plead?

Watch this video taken from the Of Mice and Men 1992 film adaption before proceeding.

It is your task to decide whether George is guilty or not guilty in the killing of Lennie Small. Gather evidence, develop an argument, and build the strongest case. Each student within a group will be assigned a specific task/job title, each group will have their own mini mock trial. The groups will all convene and the students who portrayed their task/job title the most effectively will participate in a class-wide mock trial.
