Jury gives stiletto killer life for brutal murder
<snip>
Prosecutor John Jordan climbed atop a courtroom table in front of a dozen wide-eyed jurors, straddled a mannequin torso and pantomimed hitting the dummy in the face with a high-heel stiletto.
It was the first time the jurors, who would eventually sentence Ana Trujillo to life in prison, could see for themselves how something so ordinary could be used in such a deadly way.
With TV cameras rolling on each of Jordan's swings, it was also the kind of drama that will become part of the lore that surrounds Houston's courthouse.

Too bad those cameras weren't hooked up to a live stream.
