1 A solicitor is a lawyer who gives legal advice to his or her client and may sometimes represent them in court. 2 A trustee is the legal owner of property which s/he holds in trust for the benefit of the beneficiary under Rules of Equity and the trustee must act in the interests of the beneficiary, according to the terms of the trust. 3 In law «to appeal» is to ask a higher court to change the judgement already given by a lower court. Criminals have the right to appeal against their sentences to the Court of Appeal. If the appeal is refused there can be a final appeal to the House of Lords, but this rearly happens. 4 Anyone who wants to own a gun, even a shortgun (a gun for shooting birds or rabbits) must get a firearm certificate from the police.
b Read the following text, underline the modal verbs and explain their usage: The jury and the verdict In British law since the accused are considered to be innocent until they are proved guilty, the prosecution must prove their guilt, the defence does not have to prove their innocence. If there is doubt in the minds of the jury, the verdict must be «not guilty». In Scottish law, a jury may return a verdict of «not proven» (not proved), but even then the verdict is final and a person may not be tried twice for the same crime. Until 1966 in England and Wales all the members of the jury had to be in agreement. Now, at least ten of the twelve jury members must agree before a verdict can be given.

The police make an arrest One Sunday evening a police sergeant and a constable knocked at the door of Number 10 Royal Row. «Mr. Williams? » said the sergeant. «We have reason to believe that there is stolen property in this house. We'd like to see your son, Jim». Gary looked at the policeman suspiciously. «What's he done? » «The doorstep isn't a good place to talk, isn't it. sir? » said the seargent. «May we come inside? » Gary hesistated. Then he said, «Have you got a warrant? » «As a matter of fact, we have, sir», said the seargent. He showed Gary a document signed by the local magistrate which gave him the right to enter the Williams' house and search it. Without this warrant the police could enter the house only if Gary «invited» them in. The sergeant and the constable followed Gary into the sitting room. Jim was there. Jim looked at the policemen, then at his father. «You don't have to say anything, son», said Gary. «But I'd like to know what you've been up to». Gary knew that the police could not use threats or force to make his son talk, and that they could not arrest him unless they had evidence that he had committed a crime. They could only «invite» him to go with them to the police station for questioning but they could not keep him there unless they could charge him with a crime. ...................................................................................................................................................................................

§ Get ready to work at texts thoroughly!
Madame Tussaud's
Madame Tussaud's is the best known and most visited waxwork exhibition in the world. In the Chamber of Horrors which is a part of Madame Tussaud's every exhibit deals with the subject of crime and punishment – it is a rogues gallery of dangerous and evil criminals. In a dark, dank Victorian street, where Jack the Ripper stalked his prey, the torn and twisted body of one of his victims, Cathrine Eddowes, lies mutilated in a pool of blood.
Jack the Ripper was never brought to justice but others were, villians and murderers who met their ends by guillotine, gallows or garrotte. Madame Tussaud first arrived in England in 1802 from Germany, where she was born in 1761. She brought with her gruesome souvenirs of the French Revolution, the instruments of death and death masks of their victims. The death masks of Louis XVI and Marie Antoinette are still on display next to the very guillotine blade that beheaded the French queen. More recent means of execution include the firing squad and the electric chair. American murderer Gary Gilmore is seen facing a hail of bullets. Bruno Hauptman electrocuted in New Jersey, USA in 1936 can be seen here too. Acid-bath murderer John George Haigh who killed at least nine people and disposed of the bodies in an acid bath, stands in the clothes he wore before his execution. Many prisoners or their relatives bequeathed or sold the clothes or some items which belonged to the murderers to dress their portraits at Madame Tussaud's. And the «Brides in the Bath» George Joseph Smith leans over a victim in the actual bathtub in which he drowned his well-insured brides. Notorious mass-murderer John Christie is at work in a replica of the tiny West London kitchen where he concealed the bodies of three of the seven women he killed. Contemporary criminals in Britain no longer face the death penalty – instead they must spend years behind bars. The exhibition shows a bleak modern prison block with contemporary murderers standing before their cells. Guy Thome's 1912 description of the murderers in the Chamber of Horrors is still true today: «Row upon row of faces which differ in every way one from another and yet are dreadfully alike. For these great sinister dolls, so unreal and so real, have all a likeness. The smirk of cruelty and cunning seems to lie upon their waxen masks. Colder than life, far colder than death they give forth emanations which strike the very heart with woe and desolation».
