Answer 1

Today is my first day of trial. There are a lot of people in the courtroom who want to listen to the trail. The light here is a little bit gloomy. There are several chairs in front of me where the judge will sit in just a moment. My attorney walks into the courtroom and sit in front of me. I am very nervous now.

Answer 2

This is how I'd do it:

"That's it, Honey. They're all here. Most are men, all are white and angry, it seems. There's no many people here that I can see people standing. There aren't enough sits. It makes me wonder: why did they come? People usually go to events that make them happy, right? Are they happy to see a black man on trial? I'm innocent, but it seems they don't care. They just want to get it done. The air is heavy and there's an awkward mix of silence and gossip. People don't move much. They all seem tense. It feels like the light got a bit dim with all this bad sensation that they emanate from those wooden benches."
