Unfortunately it was more complicated, and possibly more scandalous as it involved someone of a high position.

[usefulanalysis]

Higher than the chief of police and head prosecutor?!

[prosecutory]

Not quite; this was a former Chief Prosecutor. Someone who held the position before your sister.

He conspired with a body double of a president and a prison warden.

[usefulanalysis]

...Of the president of the United States?!

[prosecutory]

No, the president of Zheng Fa.

[usefulanalysis]

Oh! That's...still really bad!

Goodness, it's resolved though, right? You put away the bad guy?

[prosecutory]

Yes, we did. The murder victim was the body double; the conspiracy I spoke of was twelve years ago, by my time. But this cast a shadow upon the last case I solved before coming back here.

[usefulanalysis]

How so? Was it something tied in? You say conspiracy like it's...much bigger than just a court case.

[prosecutory]

In a way, yes. But that's not all. The facts of that previous case, the SS-5 Incident, were tampered with. False evidence was included in the record.

And above all these people...was a mastermind who pulled the strings, who turned them against each other.

[usefulanalysis]

And you got them, right?

[Right?!]

[prosecutory]

Yes. [Don't worry, Ema. And Edgeworth is visibly relieved that he can say "yes" with certainty.] Yes, we did.

[usefulanalysis]

I'm so glad. I doubt there's any case you can't solve!

[prosecutory]

Heh. [Way to flatter his ego a little bit, Ema.] No case can go unsolved. [He doesn't brag about how HE'LL be the one to make sure of that, though.]

[usefulanalysis]

No, they can't. Letting anything remain uncovered is just wrong, since you never know what might and might not be relevant to a later case. Or when a criminal will strike again. [Just like with the SL-7 incident.]

[prosecutory]

Absolutely. And both those possibilities became fact back home.

Is there anything else you wanted to ask me, Ema?

[usefulanalysis]

Just if you're alright. You are, aren't you?

[prosecutory]

Yes, I am. Thank you for asking.
