Book XII Chapter 1-3
00:29 1 Dmitri’s trial for parricide attracts a large crowd, with famed lawyer Fetyukovich defending him. A peasant jury listens. Finely dressed, Dmitri admits to debauchery but denies murder, despite strong evidence against him.
16:49 2 Fetyukovich, a brilliant trial lawyer, masterfully discredits witnesses like Grigory, Rakitin, Captain Snegiryov, and the Mokroe innkeeper, exposing inconsistencies and questioning their motives, weakening the case against Dmitri.
39:32 3 Three medical experts offer conflicting views on Dmitri’s mental state, providing no clear support for prosecution or defense. Dr. Herzenstube’s tales of Dmitri’s childhood stir sympathy among the courtroom listeners.
