Please Insult the Suspect

At court this morning, I witnessed the following exchange:

Attorney: Can you describe the woman you saw engaged in the fight?
Witness: Yes. She was a white woman in her mid-forties, maybe fifties. She had dyed blond hair, I think it might have originally been brown or black. And she was, uh, moderately to fairly overweight.
Attorney: Is that person in the courtroom today?
Witness: Yes.
Attorney: Can you point her out, for the record?
Witness: Yes. She is the woman in the purple jacket glaring at me.

Ok, so she didn't say "glaring at me" but she really should have.

that could have been much worse. I mean... a purple jacket?
