That in that moment I felt like vengeance itself.

She was there to protect him.

Hello and welcome to the best case worst cases.

Your host Jim Clemente, former New York City prosecutor, retired FBI profiler and writer producer on CVS's Criminal Minds.

And with me today is my wonderful co-host.

Hi everybody, it's franceyhakes, former state and federal prosecutor. How are you Jim?

Good, of course I'm still dealing with this whole winter cold flu season thing but it just makes my voice a little more berry white like I think.

Little growly Jim, it's nice.

Well today I have the honor of cross-examining you about one of your cases and what's it going to be?

Well Jim, I have to say out of all the cases I've ever prosecuted I think this one is actually my worst. Not one of my worst but my worst.

Wow, okay well that's a pretty horrible thing I'm sure. So why don't we start with what kind of case was it?

It's a child abuse case, a physical and sexual child abuse case.

Well those are never good so I can understand right from the top why it could be a worst case but it sounds like something really bad must have happened.

Definitely.

So where were you in your career when this case came to you?

This was very early in my career. In fact it was the first job I had right out of law school. I was an assistant district attorney in the Muscogee Judicial Circuit which is in Columbus, Georgia.

Never even heard of it but small town.

It is a small town. It was a bit of a culture shock for me when I got the job it was 1996 and I, Atlanta had just had the Olympics and it was exciting time in Georgia.

Well didn't they have a bomb at those Olympics?

Well yes they did, they did and that's a whole other issue.

But I started in the fall right after the Summer Olympics finished of 1996 and one of the first things I experienced was the Goodleboy Network.

Well whatever is that?
