“No objection,” Mason said, as Scudder handed the sheaf of photographs across to the clerk.
“Now then, did you find any other fingerprints in that flat?”
“I did.”
“Whose were they?”
“Objected to,” Mason shouted. “This is incompetent, irrelevant and immaterial—”
“Overruled,” Judge Romley said.
Borge grinned at Mason. “I found fingerprints of Perry Mason,” he said. “I found fingerprints of Paul Drake, a detective employed by Perry Mason. I found a wheel chair, and on the wheel chair I found prints of the man who had evidently occupied that wheel chair. I also found some fingerprints of a woman.”
“And did you photograph these fingerprints and mark upon each photograph the place where the prints had been found?”
“I did.
“I’m going to ask that these be introduced in evidence.”
