Josie Morales is a clerk-typist and an uncalled witness for the city of Los Angeles in Rodney King’s Simi Valley trial. Morales lived next door to George Holliday, the man who recorded King’s beating. In her monologue, she talks about staying outside to watch the beating out of a social obligation to bear witness to what she knew was an act of injustice. Morales remembers insisting to the prosecutor, Terry White, that the officers would be acquitted if the prosecution didn’t call a resident as a witness; she even had a dream about it. In the end, Morales’s dream came true: all four officers were acquitted in the Simi Valley trial.
