Edward Dante

"In all my time as a judge, I've learnt two things: never leave your pudding unattended and... Oh, I forget the second thing."

- Edward Dante

Edward Dante (appearing as Honorable Dante) is one of the central characters in Criminal Case.

Duties
As the judge of Pacific Bay's primary court service, Dante's main role in the game is to sentence the killers and bring justice to the city at the end of each case in Pacific Bay. The sentence Dante issues depends on the severity of the crime, the mental health of the motives for the murder, how much false testimony the killer gave out during the investigation, just to name a few.

Appearance
A judge of 56 years of age, Dante has dark green eyes, long white wavy medium hair, and a very bushy beard and mustache of the same colour. Being an aged man, Dante sports many wrinkles on his face. As the judge, he dons a standard judge's robe. Underneath the robe, he wears a white shirt with a red tie which sports a design of gold scales on it.

Trivia

 * Judge Dante mentions Olivia Hall during Ray Westman's trial in The Root of All Evil.
 * During the trial of "The Puppeteer" in Hanging by a Thread, Judge Dante sarcastically remarks that he thought the Puppeteer was "some toy that came alive at night and killed people, but turned back into a doll by day." This is a reference to the popular horror movie franchise Child's Play featuring the fictional living doll, "Chucky".

Case Appearances
