"Now, there is circumstantial evidence to indicate that Mayella Ewel was beaten - savagely, by someone who led exclusively with his left. And Tom Robinson now sits before you having taken the oath with the only good hand he possesses... his RIGHT."
—Atticus Finch, To Kill a Mockingbird
Ryunosuke: By the way, is Mr. McGuilded right-handed?
Susato: Yes, I believe so. He was toying with a coin in his right hand a little earlier.
Ryunosuke: Haah... pity. If only he'd been left-handed.
Susato: I think blood on either glove would be fairly incriminating, really.
Coroner: The first blows seem to have come from the left, so probably a right-hander, but you never can really tell. Some people prefer...backhand. Then of course the victim does tend to wriggle around. Not many of us stay still when a maniac is walloping us with a chunk of cable. We get fidgety.
