'''''This is a very confusing case indeed. The same person was killed in two places at the same time. In the Defendants Lobby, Lana will tell you despite a long questioning, the police are entirely clueless, even Lana is in the dark.'''''
Looks like this case now turns to the police department in the evidence room. In the defendant's lobby, Lana will tell you that despite being questioned by the police, everyone is still clueless about this case. You tell her that Jake Marshall might be behind this since you found his bloody fingerprints in the Evidence Room, but Lana is not sure about this.
==Day Three: Court Mode==
Once the trial begins, Edgeworth states that it takes 30 minutes to get from the Police Station to the Prosecutor's Office and yet Goodman disappeared from the former and was found at the latter doing both at 5:15 PM. Edgeworth promises to bring accurate evidence to court. He calls Mike Meekins to the stand.

'''Press''' '''all''' of Meekins' statement. Meekins was assigned to guard the Blue Badger (the dancing contraption in front of the Police Department). It was during the ceremony, so Meekins had to put it in the Evidence Room. Meekins needed an ID card to enter the Evidence Room. Meekins reveals his ID Number, 4989596. If you look carefully, the number was used twice, 25 minutes before the crime, and around the same time as Goodman! The first time for relocating the Blue Badger, the second time to get it back. The '''ID Card Record''' will be updated in the Court Record. When Meekins saw the knife, He was swinging his arms, cutting his hand in the process. Meekins eventually disarmed Goodman, who, with a mess of Meekins' blood, punched Meekins in the face. Meekins was slapped awake at 5:30. Afterwords he went to finish his deed, to put the Blue Badger back to its place.
==Crime Report, Sir!: Cross-examination==
'''Press''' all of Meekins' statements. Meekins was assigned to the Blue Badger (the dancing contraption in front of the Police Department) to make sure it wasn't broken during the evidence transferrals. After the award ceremony (where Edgeworth got his Prosecutor Trophy) there were a lot of people running around, so Meekins put it in the Evidence Room. Meekins needed an ID Card to enter the Evidence Room, and he reveals his ID number, #4989596.
The Judge believes he has heard an accurate testimony, but one thing remains unclear, was the man murdered at the Police Station really Goodman? Meekins then presents a video tape of the murder sent by Chief Gant. Meekins was told to erase it but couldn't do so. We then see the tape.
If you look carefully, the number was used twice; 25 minutes before the crime, and around the same time as Goodman! The first time was for relocating the Blue Badger to the Evidence Room, and the second time was to get it back. It was during this second trip that he spotted the suspicious man on the security screen. The '''ID Card Record''' will be updated in the Court Record.
When Meekins saw the knife, he began wildly swinging his arms and cut his hand in the process, before finally grabbing the man by the collar. Meekins eventually got the knife from the man, whose white coat was drenched with Meekins' blood. But then he punched Meekins right in the face. Meekins was slapped awake at 5:30 PM. Afterward, he went to finish his deed, and put the Blue Badger back in its place in front of the Department.
The judge believes he has heard an accurate testimony, but one thing remains unclear, was the man murdered at the Police Department really Goodman? Meekins then presents a videotape of the murder sent in by Chief Gant. This comes as a surprise to Edgeworth, who was told that the tape had been mistakenly erased. You then see the tape.
Here is the description of the tape. The camera pans left and right:

As you can see in everyone's faces (shock and annoyed is best described), while it proves Meekins did encounter someone and there was some activity, the tape doesn't show the man's face or what happened because of the panning of the camera and the '''Blue Badger''' in the way! Edgeworth tells Meekins to describe the man. The '''Security Video''' is added to the Court Record.

'''Press''' Meekins' '''5'''th statement. Edgeworth asks if there is a problem with the video tape. Say '''There is a problem'''. You then examine the tape.
If there's one trait that makes Meekins a competent witness, is that he never looks at people's faces! How could they hire him to be part of the police force is he acts like a soldier following orders in which he's only good at?! Pray for a glimmer of hope from his testimony.

The judge wants you to present the thin insulator. '''Present''' the '''Rubber Glove'''. It says "SL-9 Incident" on it, meaning that it belonged inside a locker. With it being outside, that means it must have fallen out of one of them. With this Glove, anyone could have opened the locker. Edgeworth isn't willing to give in and has Meekins testify more about the tape.

Edgeworth even has the ID Card Record to prove that Goodman's card was used. It was due to transferals, but why a few people? You began the cross examination.

====Mystery Man (2): Cross-Examination====
On Meekins' '''4'''th statement, '''Present Goodman's Lost Item Report'''. Goodman has lost something important to him, likely his ID Card, since it wasn't with him on the day of the crime. This proves that the man that Meekins encountered is not Goodman. Edgeworth then makes a conclusion, If that's true, then the murder might not have taken place in the evidence room, so what the camera showed is fake, thus, the primary location of the murder is the Underground Parking Lot, with Lana Skye the defendant.
'''Object''' to this. While the camera doesn't show the moment of the murder, it is still, however related to the case. Time to call someone to the stand. If asked who, '''Present Jake Marshall'''. Edgeworth agrees and calls him to the stand. The Judge calls a 30-minute recess.
===Recess===
Lana tells Phoenix that hes is knowing something. Lana seems to know something about the case herself, but doesn't want to talk about it, even to her sister, why? Gumshoe then comes in to bring files, from the SL-9 Incident, at Lana's request. It is also revealed that Lana was a witness on that case. The '''SL-9 Incident Files''' will be added to the court record. In there, you see a list of people involved in the case known as the "Joe Darke Killings", and one of them is Ema, who runs off crying seeing that. Gumshoe leaves too. Lana wishes you best of luck.
==Court Mode: Part 2==
Ema hasn't come back, so you won't have any help this time. Edgeworth calls Jake Marshall to the stand. He testifies the day of the crime.
===Marshall's Testimony: Day of the Crime===
{{Phoenix Wright Testimony |char=jake |name=Marshall |subtitle=Day of the Crime |testimony=# My job was to keep a wary eye on that bone orchard.
# They said I was supposed to make rounds three times a day, but that ain't my style.
# Besides, the room's protected by two security systems, anyway.
# If I remember right, I was at a street-side saloon at the time it went down.
# I'm just an innocent travelin' man, so if you're out of ammo, it's time I hit the trail.}}
Two security systems? Marshall is talking about the security camera, and the ID Card reader. He doesn't know about the lockers though.
----
====Day of the Crime: Cross-Examination====
It's finally time to use that trump card. '''Present Marshall's Fingerprints''' on Marshall's '''4'''th statement. If Marshall wasn;t at the department, why were Marshall's bloody fingerprints on one of the lockers? Marshall denies it, but Edgeworth has him testify about the fingerprints.
{{Phoenix Wright Testimony |char=jake |name=Marshall |subtitle=Bloodstained Fingerprints |testimony=# Like I said, it's only natural for my fingerprints to be in that evidence room.
# One of them just happened to be at the same place as the bloodstained handprint.
# The murderer touched the locker where my fingerprint was by chance.
# The bloodstain and fingerprint are completely unrelated.
# Or didn't you know the murderer was wearing gloves?
'''Press''' Marshall's '''1'''st statement. Marshall tells you that it was his locker the handprint was on, so it wouldn't be a surprise that Marshall's fingerprints were on it. '''Marshall's Fingerprints''' will be updated to the Court Record.
The murderer was wearing gloves? '''Press''' Marshall's '''5'''th statement. How does he know about that? Edgeworth states that they tried out the prints and found nothing, so they assumed that he is wearing gloves. Marshall presents the video tape whom he says to catch all. Marshall adds this to his testimony.
* Too bad it wasn't me in that video, right, pardner?
'''Press''' on that statement. The camera was moving back and forth and it doesn't show the floor, so if someone was familiar with the movement, he could have found a way to leave the room without getting caught. The Judge wants to know if you have any proof. Choose '''Show evidence''', and you'll examine the tape.
'''Left''' view '''4''' look at Jake's locker. There is a cloth sticking out. If you rewind it, you'll see it wasn't there before. '''Present''' this to court. If that locker can only be opened by Marshall, then he might have put the cloth in there, thus proving that the Goodman in this video was indeed Marshall.
Marshall wants proof. '''Present''' the '''Evidence Locker''', and Marshall will freak, as he doesn't know about the new lockers.
The Judge wants Marshall to testify, but Phoenix wants to find out himself. The Judge asks you to show where Marshall was. You examine the floor plans. '''Present''' the Victim's Spot. It is clear that it was Goodman's spot, but recall Meekins' story, if he asked Goodman for his ID Card, why didn't he just show it, rather than have his knife out? If he did show his ID Card, his cover would have been blown.
Marshall is still not giving up as you still don't have any solid proof. You don't have any, but Edgeworth says you should go back to the basics. Instead of showing direct evidence, show evidence for a reason for Marshall to put the cloth in the locker. The tape should answer your questions, so you look at the tape once more.
'''Right''' view '''3'''. Pause just as Goodman (if he is Goodman) lunges at Meekins. There's blood on his shoulder, LOTS of it! '''Present''' this to court. There was lot's of blood on it, so it would be too obvious that he fought Meekins. So someone had to hide it, and that hiding spot must be Jake Marshall's locker.
Marshall says "are you happy now Edgeworth?" for two years ago, as his persistence is what got Marshall into this mess. The Judge has Marshall confess.
===Marshall's Testimony: Marshall's Confession===
{{Phoenix Wright Testimony |char=jake |name=Marshall |subtitle=Marshall's Confession |testimony=# I had to do it that day. I can't just stand by and let it die.
# I stole the detective's ID, and dressed like him, I planned to take out the evidence.
# I wasn't expecting Officer Meekins. I knocked him out...
# and managed to escape, I knew which areas wouldn't be caught on the camera.
# There wasn't any murder in the evidence room at 5:15.}}
No murder huh? Then why was there large amounts of blood on the floor? Marshall says Meekins was the donor, since he cut his hand, but isn't that a little too much blood?
----
====Marshall's Confession: Cross-Examination====
'''Press all''' of Marshall's statements.
'''1'''st statement: He couldn't just let th SL-9 Incident die, he wanted to look at the evidence one last time. He wasn't in charge for that case. That's his reason for stealing Goodman's ID and clothing.
'''2'''nd statement: The reason he stole Goodman's ID and clothing is because if he was caught taking evidence, he would be caught stealing. He also fooled the camera too, but there was one thing he didn't count on, fingerprints. He managed to open the door, so Goodman might have opened the door before Marshall.
'''3'''rd statement: Marshall expected to be there for about five minutes, but he didn't expect Meekins to be in that room. Marshall is still holding the knife he used to cut Meekins' hand.
'''4'''th statement: He knew the tape would be erased soon, but with the commotion with Meekins, he had to do something not to get caught.
'''5'''th statement: When Marshall opened Goodman's locker, the evidence was actually missing, according to Edgeworth, it wasn't found yet.
Phoenix asks Marshall why he went through such lengths trying to get the evidence (i.e. stealing a detective's ID, injuring a police officer (Meekins)) Marshall wanted evidence he was satisfied with, and adds this to his testimony.
* I can't just forget the SL-9 Incident... You know why?
'''Press''' on that statement. Though the serial killings of "Joe Darke" are solved two years ago, Marshall felt that something isn't right. He doesn't know what, so you have to show him a reason. '''Present''' the '''SL-9 Incident Files''' to the same statement (just after the 5th). There is a name called Marshall, "Neil Marshall". Jake Marshall says Neil was a prosecutor, just like Edgeworth, also his brother. He was the one that handled the Incident, but was killed, so Edgeworth had to take it himself. Neil and Jake once worked with a group of detectives led by Damon Gant. They were desperate for answers. Eventually Neil fought Darke, but was killed, and thus, left evidence the they needed. But Marshall knew his brother, he wouldn't never lose a fight, so in the last day the files could be reopened, he stole an ID, intended to steal evidence, and assaulted a police officer.
The good news is, now you know what happened at the Police Department. The bad news is, this also makes Lana, your client, a primary suspect again. Seeing Lana the only person to have committed the crime, The Judge declares a verdict, but is stopped.
It's Ema! Ema wants the Judge to hear you out. After hearing her name on the SL-9 Incident Files, Ema went to the evidence room again to recheck the handprint on Gumshoe's locker, she found nothing again. She leaves you to do the talking. But you have nothing. The Judge asks you if there is something not right with the handprint. Say '''I object'''. Something might not have been drawn in the floor plans. If it has, then the handprint may change the case. If asked what could have been drawn on there, '''Present''' the '''Blue Badger Panel'''. The Blue Badger was dancing at the time the fight took place, and, from where it's dancing, it would've been impossible to place a handprint on Gumshoe's Locker.
Ema comes back and comes up with a solution. If the print wasn't there during the fight, it may have been put there before the fight happened. Thus, blood was spilled at the evidence room twice! So, something might have happened in there before the commotion caught on tape. However, you need proof, so when you get the chance, '''Present''' the '''ID Card Record'''. If the murder took place before the fight, it would be either 4:40 or 4:20. But it would've been impossible for Edgeworth to clean up the act before Meekins brought the Blue Badger, so the only remaining number is "7777777". If Goodman lost that ID Card that day, then he could've walked in with the real murderer. The Judge asks if Edgeworth knows the holder of this ID, he hasn't, as he doesn't have the authority to look up someone as high as a executive, unless he/she is charged.
Just by that, Marshall mocks Edgeworth with his "cover-ups" and "forgeries" and says "That's how the Prosecutor's Office operates!" Edgeworth wants Marshal to keep his "slander" to himself. Marshall then asks a question to Lana, "In that trail two years ago... did you really use legitimate evidence?". Lana says when she became a prosecutor, she thought she can suppress law, but was the one being suppressed.
Lana then answers Marshall's question to Edgeworth, "Drastic times require drastic measures... That's just the way it is. We did what we had to... in order to get the verdict he deserved. Even if it involved "forging" evidence."
Lana's last bit left the court in such a ruckus, that the Judge was forced to adjourn court for today
==Day Three: Investigation Mode==
===Wright & Co. Offices===
Ema apologizes for what Lana said, and wonders if that had something to do with her. Ema reveals that the the night Marshall was murdered, Joe Darke tried to kill her. Niel tried to save her, but lost the battle to the death, therefore, Ema was a witness of that case. '''Talk''' to Ema.
'''Sl-9 Incident:''' She was at her sister's office planning to eat dinner that night. Suddenly, Darke barged in and attacked Ema. Neil came in and fought Darke. As one of them held up a knife, lightning struck giving Ema a picture she'd never forget. When she was called to the stand, Ema tried to say something, but couldn't, so Lana had to make bogus evidence and gave it to Edgeworth. She hasn't been the same since, colder as she is now. But something puzzles Phoenix, why would Darke run into the Prosecutor's Office?
'''Something Puzzling:''' Darke was taken in for questioning and ran halfway through the interview. The prosecutor's office was just across an elevator. Lana was actually the best detective there is so after the case, she was promoted to be Chief Prosecutor.
Lana was a detective? '''Move''' to the '''Detention Center''' to talk to her.
===Detention Center===
'''Talk''' to Lana:
'''Today's Trail:''' Ema believed that Lana would stick to the truth and asks why Lana wouldn't say something. Lana says she isn't the only one involved.
'''Detective Lana Skye:''' Lana and Gant were brilliant detectives back then. They solved cases before they were even reported. After the incident, she transferred to being Chief Prosecutor, because it's her reason to become a detective, to have enough experience to become a prosecutor.
'''Darke investigation:''' She and Damon Gant shared the same occupation and office. They both lead a team of detectives, two of them were Marshall and Starr. Jake worked with his brother for the fist time. When the fight at the office occurred, Lana was the first one there.
'''First on at scene:''' Lana was at the Police Department filing papers when Darke escaped the questioning. After the crime, Lana was the first to reach the crime. Therefore everyone was involved in that case. Phoenix doesn't believe it, as though the case was solved two years ago, someone like Marshall thought it wasn't quite fair.
You should probably go check the Chief's Office for more information. '''Move''' to the '''Criminal Affairs Dept'''.
===Criminal Affairs Department===
You find nothing interesting here, and you won't find Gumshoe. '''Move''' to the '''PoliceDept.Entrance'''.
===Police Department Entrance===
You'll find Marshall. '''Talk''' to him.
'''Darke trail:''' It wasn't only Marshall who thought the trail was fishy, but other investigators as well. Though the murder weapon was the switchblade knife, it didn't fit in the autopsy report, so there is a chance that the knife may not have been the murder weapon. The case left scars in everyone.
'''Prosecutor Marshall:''' Jake and Neil were brothers. It was their first case together. Neil was 27 by the time he died. 2 years have already passed. Jake always tried to get the evidence.
'''Scars:''' All detectives were very suspicious of the trail. After the trail, Angel was fired, Jake was promoted. If they change Goodman, everyone would get really suspicious of Gant & Skye.
'''Gant & Skye:''' When Gant became chief of police, he promoted Lana to chief of prosecutor. However, she hasn't been the same ever since. Why? Marshall doesn't know, as Lana might have a secret she might be hiding two years ago.
Marshall is done with his story, and tells you that Edgeworth presented evidence because Damon Gant gave it to him. He then leaves, saying he won't be working with you anymore. '''Move''' to the '''Criminal Affairs Dept.
===Criminal Affairs Department (2)===
Still nothing there, but the Chief Detective tells you you'll meet everyone in the conference room. You'll also learn where Gant's Office is. '''Move''' to the '''Chief's Office'''.
===Chief's Office===
After a few minutes of sight-seeing, you'll meet Gant, who put a piece of paper in his desk after you come in. Gant shows you a picture hanging on his wall. It's Lana, Neil, and Gant. Something is weird in the picture, but you can't see how. The '''Gant Team Picture''' will be added to the court record. Gant then decides to lock up the room, and takes you with him. He is kicking you out? Against your request? '''Move''' to the '''Criminal Affairs Dept.'''
===Criminal Affairs Department (3)===
You meet Gumshoe, who was serving coffee in the meeting, saying that Edgeworth is now "under fire" since the rumors were true. '''Talk''' to Gumshoe.
'''Edgeworth's crisis:''' Things haven't been do well with Edgeworth since the rumors were proven true. Lana is the guilty party, but Edgeworth is the one responsible. Gumshoe is very worried about him.
'''SL-9 Incident:''' Gumshoe learned about the incident in the papers. He doesn't know about who was he protecting. Darke was found guilty, because he left behind crucial evidence, the murder weapon.
Maybe '''Present'''ing the '''Switchblade Knife''' would jog his memory. '''Talk''' to him when it happens.
'''Murder weapon:''' The weapon was owned by Darke. The tip that was broken off was, in fact, found in his body. '''Neil's Autopsy Report''' and '''Switchblade Knife''' will be added to the Court Record.
'''Darke's crimes:''' Darke was actually just an average businessman, until one day, he accidentally hit someone with a car. Desperate, he killed a man who witnessed it, killed a lady who witness that crime, killed a child who witnessed that crime, and killed a jogger who saw him bury the bodies. He finally gave himself in afterwards. There was a good chance he would've gotten away with it, but the incident at the Chief's Room, he lost his chance.
You ask Gumshoe if he could let you in Chief's Office. He doesn't know, as letting a civilian in the Chief's Room would lose his job. You need to find something to help him change his mind. '''Move''' to the '''Underground Parking Lot'''.
===Underground Parking Lot===
Everyone seems to be at the Evidence Room, but you've proven that there wasn't a murder here, but you also proven Lana even more guilty. '''Move''' to the '''High Prosecutor's Office'''.
===High Prosecutor's Office===
You'll see Edgeworth, who is writing something, before throwing it on the ground upon seeing you come in. '''Talk''' to Edgeworth:
'''Forged evidence:''' Edgeworth blames himself about forging evidence. If someone else in the department is responsible, so is Edgeworth. The Prosecutors and Detectives share the same bond. If broken, everything would fall apart.
'''Tomorrow's trail:''' It's too late to change prosecutors. Edgeworth is still haunted by the case. The evidence list seemed short, almost half of what most lists are.
'''The day of the crime:''' Edgeworth was finished with work that morning, but came back at the request of Gant, to bring back a screwdriver.
'''Present''' to Edgeworth the '''Gant Team Picture'''. Ema notices that Neil's trophy is different from Edgeworth's.
'''Talk''' about the '''Prosecutor's trophy'''. Edgeworth then tells you the story behind the trophy. An ancient Chinese tale says this. An arms merchant presented the emperor a halberd that can penetrate any shield and armor, and a shield that could withstand any weapon. The emperor then spots what would be called, a contradictory, and thus, the broken halberd and shield in the trophy would symbolize the tale. But there is only a shield on there. The halberd part was removed two years ago. Edgeworth tells you to ask Gant. The '''Prosecutor's Trophy''' will be updated to the Court Record.
'''Examine''' the piece of paper under Edgeworth's desk. It's a letter of... resignation?!? Edgeworth feels as if something had died inside him. He could not forgive himself for the path he walked on. The '''Letter of Resignation''' in will be added to the Court Record.
'''Move''' to the '''Underground Parking Lot'''.
===Underground Parking Lot (2)===
You'll meet Angel, who is quite annoyed to see you leave out what she saw two days ago. '''Talk''' to Angel
'''Darke investigation:''' They trailed Darke for a very long time, until the night Neil was killed. Everyone was very appalled by this, especially Jake, who was haunted by his brother's death, which, in turn, affected Lana.
'''After case closed:''' All detectives, except for Goodman, relieved of their duties, without an explanation. Then Lana became Chief Prosecutor. Angel says that Lana may be used.
''''Legendary duo:''' Gant was very famous back then, because he can attract any evidence, so he had rumors around him too, thanks to a certain evidence. Jake's shock of his brother's death. Lana was shocked of something else, with similar feeling. Lana, became a very cold woman.
'''Being "used":''' Angel suspects that Lana probably took the job under Gant's orders. Since the Chief Prosecutor can control the Prosecutor's Office, controlling the Chief Prosecutor would mean doing so as well. Since the case, Lana became colder than she had always been, so there could be a reason for her change.
Finally, you are getting closer to the bottom of this. '''Move''' to the '''Criminal Affairs Dept.'''
===Criminal Affairs Department (4)===
You'll meet Gumshoe, who still refuses to let you in the office. You need something to change his mind.
'''Present''' Edgeworth's '''Letter of Resignation''' to Gumshoe, who'll be shocked seeing this. Edgeworth trusted detectives to give him sound evidence, but was betrayed. Gumshoe felt very sorry and would do anything for Edgeworth now. He then makes up his mind and give you his ID. '''Gumshoe's ID''' will be added to the Court Record. '''Move''' to the Chief's Office.
===Chief's Office (2)===
You arrived at the Office... followed by Gumshoe, who was worried something might go wrong. Why did he give you his ID card anyway? '''Gumshoe's ID''' will be removed from the Court Record. '''Talk''' to Gumshoe.
'''The Chief's Office:''' This is where Ema was waiting for her sister at. The left side of the room was Lana's. Both she and Gant used to work together in this room. Now it's all Gant's.
'''Chief Gant:''' Something had been bothering Gumshoe since you want to look around his office for the SL-9 Incident. Could Gant be a suspect for that case? You can't say anything about him... yet.
'''Examine''' a safe at Gant's side of the room. It looks like you need a code to open it. You have a choice, choose '''Input number'''. At the bottom of the screen, you'll find a set of numbers you would find on a phone. Type in '''7777777''' and the safe would open.
7777777? That's the ID number of the chief executive that entered the evidence room at the day of the crime! Gumshoe says this is Gant's number. No time for chat though, examine the safe again and you'll find, a broken piece of a jar, and a piece of cloth with a handprint on it. Gumshoe wants to know if there is a connection between the two pieces and the case.
Let's start with the shard. '''Present''' the '''Unstable Jar''' to Gumshoe. Remember yesterday, you found pieces like this and put it together. Gumshoe then notices the possible connection. You have a choice, choose '''Assemble fragments''', and you'll put the final piece in there.
'''Fragment No. 1''' turn left once.
It fits! Gant was obviously hiding the fragment in there. He was hiding valuable evidence in there! But why? Gumshoe then points out something. There's blood on it! Could this be part of the reason?
Now for the cloth. '''Present''' the '''Fingerprinting Set'''. You choose a finger you want to test. The middle fingerprint for this instance. Once you start sprinkle all around the touch screen and blow. After the fingerprint is clear, you get to choose it's owner. It's '''Ema Skye''''s! What? How? This seems to be a very grim piece of evidence, but you can't tell Ema about this for now. The '''Strip of Cloth''' will be added to the Court Record.
'''Examine''' Gant's desk. The first time you came in here, he hid something he was reading from you. It's an evidence list saying, "SL-9 Incident"! Remember, Edgeworth said the evidence list is twice as short as an average one. This maybe be another list, therefore a ripped half list! The '''Evidence List''' will be added to the Court Record.
Gant is obviously hiding something! Speaking of Gant, uh-oh! He somehow sneaked in to see you three in his room. He has you and Gumshoe leave. But has Ema stay for questioning. You automatically go to the Detention Center.
===Detention Center (2)===
What Lana has told you over the past few days is nothing useful. '''Talk''' to Lana.
'''Hiding something:''' She told that she stabbed Goodman, but there is no supportive evidence. It could be for somebody, somebody she is afraid of. If Lana asks you who that person is, answer '''Damon Gant'''.
'''Damon Gant:''' Lana had forged evidence for Edgeworth to present. However, unbeknownist to Edgeworth, Lana had help from Gant. Lana wants proof. '''Present''' to her the '''Evidence List'''. Lana finally gives in, and tells you three days ago, Lana had to follow orders about the murder.
'''"Orders":''' He had orders from Gant to dispose of Goodman's body. If that is true, Lana might not have killed Goodman. When Lana opened Edgeworth's truck, she finds Darke's knife plunged inside him, so she took the knife out, and plunged Edgeworth's knife inside it. That's when Angel saw her. What about the knife?
Edgeworth even has the ID Card Record to prove that Goodman's ID was used. The judge wonders why, since there should have been hundreds of transferrals scheduled, there were so few people on the ID Card Record. Edgeworth tells him that this specific Evidence Room (Sector Three) only stores evidence for certain special cases — only extremely violent ones involving the police staff. There were only a few cases scheduled for transferrals, and the other ones were mostly cleared up by noon. The judge is satisfied, so you begin the cross-examination.
'''Darke's Knife:''' Lana wanted the SL-9 Incident not to open again, so after she stabbed Goodman, or rather his body, she called Ema to tell her to hide the knife in her muffler. Before she followed orders, Lana called Marshall thinking she could trust him for something. But since he doesn't want the case to die, he decides to collect the evidence himself.
==Mystery Man (2): Cross-examination==
On Meekins' '''2nd, 3rd or 4th statement''', '''present Goodman's ID''' or '''Goodman's Lost Item Report'''. Goodman had lost something important to him that day — likely his ID Card. Not only that, you found his ID at the parking lot! Phoenix presents the case that the man that Meekins encountered was not Goodman, but rather the man that stole Goodman's ID Card. Edgeworth then makes a conclusion: if the man on the Security Video is a fake, then the murder in the Evidence Room is also a fake! If the murder didn't occur at the Police Department, then that means it must have happened at the Underground Parking Lot. This makes Lana Skye the prime suspect once again.
Lana is finished talking with you, and doesn't want you to pursue this further in court.
'''Object''' to this. While the camera doesn't show the moment of the murder, it is still related to the case. Time to call someone to the stand. When asked who, ''' present Jake Marshall's profile'''. Edgeworth agrees to your request and calls him to the stand. The judge calls a 30-minute recess while they go get Marshall and the prosecution prepares.
It looks like your done for today. Now tomorrow, you'll have to prove the mystery behind Goodman's murder, the SL-9 Incident, and Lana's secret.
==Recess==
[[File:PWAA_sl-9incidentfiles.png|right]]
Lana tells Phoenix that Marshall knows something. Lana seems to know something about the case herself, but doesn't want to talk about it, even to her sister. Why? Gumshoe then comes in to bring files from the SL-9 Incident, at Lana's request. It is also revealed that Lana was a witness on that case. The '''SL-9 Incident Files''' will be added to the Court Record. In there, you see a list of people involved in the case known as the "Joe Darke Killings", and one of them is Ema, who runs off crying after seeing it. Gumshoe leaves too, and Lana wishes you the best of luck.

Looks like this case now turns to the police department in the evidence room. In the defendant's lobby, Lana will tell you that despite being questioned by the police, everyone is still clueless about this case. You tell her that Jake Marshall might be behind this since you found his bloody fingerprints in the Evidence Room, but Lana is not sure about this.
Once the trial begins, Edgeworth states that it takes 30 minutes to get from the Police Station to the Prosecutor's Office and yet Goodman disappeared from the former and was found at the latter doing both at 5:15 PM. Edgeworth promises to bring accurate evidence to court. He calls Mike Meekins to the stand.
Meekins promptly admits to the crime. However, Edgeworth still demands that Meekins give the report about the murder. Get ready for an earful testimony (regarding the megaphone)!
Press all of Meekins' statements. Meekins was assigned to the Blue Badger (the dancing contraption in front of the Police Department) to make sure it wasn't broken during the evidence transferrals. After the award ceremony (where Edgeworth got his Prosecutor Trophy) there were a lot of people running around, so Meekins put it in the Evidence Room. Meekins needed an ID Card to enter the Evidence Room, and he reveals his ID number, #4989596.
If you look carefully, the number was used twice; 25 minutes before the crime, and around the same time as Goodman! The first time was for relocating the Blue Badger to the Evidence Room, and the second time was to get it back. It was during this second trip that he spotted the suspicious man on the security screen. The ID Card Record will be updated in the Court Record.
When Meekins saw the knife, he began wildly swinging his arms and cut his hand in the process, before finally grabbing the man by the collar. Meekins eventually got the knife from the man, whose white coat was drenched with Meekins' blood. But then he punched Meekins right in the face. Meekins was slapped awake at 5:30 PM. Afterward, he went to finish his deed, and put the Blue Badger back in its place in front of the Department.
The judge believes he has heard an accurate testimony, but one thing remains unclear, was the man murdered at the Police Department really Goodman? Meekins then presents a videotape of the murder sent in by Chief Gant. This comes as a surprise to Edgeworth, who was told that the tape had been mistakenly erased. You then see the tape.
Here is the description of the tape. The camera pans left and right:
Right view 1: Nothing interesting here, except the Blue Badger.
Left view 1: Goodman walks by.
Right view 2: Goodman opens his locker.
Left view 2: Meekins sneaks up on Goodman.
Right view 3: Goodman spins around, slashing Meekin's hand. They begin fighting each other.
Left view 3: The fight continues as the camera faces away from them.
Right view 4: Meekins is knocked out, slumped against the wall and Goodman is nowhere to be seen.
Left view 4: Nothing interesting here, maybe.
As you can see in everyone's faces (shock and annoyed is best described), while it proves Meekins did encounter someone and there was some activity, the tape doesn't show the man's face or what happened because of the panning of the camera and the Blue Badger in the way! Edgeworth tells Meekins to describe the man. The Security Video is added to the Court Record.
but there's no question that the other person was Detective Goodman, sir!
I mean, he opened the locker, which required Detective Goodman's fingerprint to do!
The locker he opened is unquestionably Detective Goodman's locker, sir!
So it must be him! No one else could have unlocked it!
If there's one trait that makes Meekins a competent witness, is that he never looks at people's faces! How could they hire him to be part of the police force is he acts like a soldier following orders in which he's only good at?! Pray for a glimmer of hope from his testimony.
Press Meekins' 5th statement. Edgeworth asks if there is a problem with the videotape. Say "There's a problem". You then examine the tape. Alternatively, you can present the "Video Tape" on this statement as you automatically examine the tape.
Video tape
You are about to examine a videotape. There are three buttons on the bottom: fast forward, pause, and rewind. If you need to go faster, hit fast forward. If you need to go back, press rewind. If you need to stop for a moment, press pause. If you see something interesting, pause, put the cursor on the interesting object, and present it.
Wii Remote Controls on WiiWare Version: These controls might be a little bit tricky to use: is to move the cursor on screen. is to play and pause the video. + (or twist the to the right) to fast forward or move to the next frame. + (or twist the to the left) to rewind or move back a frame. is to present where on the video you want to show.
DS/3DS Controls: The setup should be simpler than the Wii Remote Controls. is to move the cursor on screen. is to play and pause the video. is to rewind or move back a frame. is to fast forward or move to the next frame. is to present where on the video you want to show.
Right view 1: Before Goodman walks over to the left side. Look at Goodman's locker. It's lit up! Present it. If the locker was lit, that means it was open. Goodman's locker was lit, so it was already opened. The judge wants you to show why. You examine the tape again.
Right view 2: If you look closely at Goodman's locker as it opens, you see something fall out. Pause at the right time and present it. When the locker was closed, the object might have been stuck between the door and the sensor.
The judge wants you to present the thin insulator. Present the Rubber Glove. It says "SL-9 Incident" on it, meaning that it belonged inside a locker. With it being outside, that means it must have fallen out of one of them. With this Glove, anyone could have opened the locker. Edgeworth isn't willing to give in and has Meekins testify more about the tape.
There's one other thing that proves the man was Detective Goodman, sir!
To enter the evidence room, one must use their ID card!
When an ID card is used, there's a record of it!
At the time of the crime, the detective had used his card!
Edgeworth even has the ID Card Record to prove that Goodman's ID was used. The judge wonders why, since there should have been hundreds of transferrals scheduled, there were so few people on the ID Card Record. Edgeworth tells him that this specific Evidence Room (Sector Three) only stores evidence for certain special cases — only extremely violent ones involving the police staff. There were only a few cases scheduled for transferrals, and the other ones were mostly cleared up by noon. The judge is satisfied, so you begin the cross-examination.
On Meekins' 2nd, 3rd or 4th statement, present Goodman's ID or Goodman's Lost Item Report. Goodman had lost something important to him that day — likely his ID Card. Not only that, you found his ID at the parking lot! Phoenix presents the case that the man that Meekins encountered was not Goodman, but rather the man that stole Goodman's ID Card. Edgeworth then makes a conclusion: if the man on the Security Video is a fake, then the murder in the Evidence Room is also a fake! If the murder didn't occur at the Police Department, then that means it must have happened at the Underground Parking Lot. This makes Lana Skye the prime suspect once again.
