Did Phoenix need the Jurist system?
No decisive evidence for Kristoph, and only because this, making such a radical change?

He said quite a few times in the game there's a dark time approaching for the Court's current judicial system. I think he means that there are now plenty of guilty people exploiting the laws to get themselves off the hook. Ducking behind rules such as pleading the fifth, or completely neutralizing the defense's argument because they don't have decisive evidence, winning the Judge's affection. Stuff like that.

I could be wrong though, but this is why I think he decided to reintroduce the Jurist system.

(And just to break the wall this is Capcom's way of introducing the system to Japan's players in parallel to Japan's change in their court system.)

Sorry for being ignorant, but what is "pleading the fifth"?

Since you live in the U.K. it's not being so ignorant...

Pleading the fifth amendment means you won't testify against yourself. Basically, if you plead the fifth then no matter what happens you only answer questions that you want to.

Simply because Capcom and the Japanese Govt demanded it.

I don't think Phoenix decided to implement the jury system. Somebody higher up did and someone got Phoenix the job of running it. [I bet Edgeworth was instrumental in Phoenix being employed to run the test jury trial.]

The Government demanded it? Really? Will Capcom still put "All legal matters in this game are works of fiction"?
How did Japanese law operate before?

I believe it was because
Spoiler: :D
Phoenix is the ****ing man.

I think he knew he wouldn't have enough to put G-man away (or executed, dunno what his fate was), as he had to do...eh...questionable acts the first time. Which makes victory in the final case that much sweeter.

Or, like people said, darkness coming, blah blah, criminals getting away, etc.
