The defendant
In a general criminal trial court, the key roles include the judge who presides over the trial and ensures that proper legal procedures are followed, the prosecution (usually a district attorney or government attorney) who presents the evidence against the defendant, the defense attorney who represents the accused, the defendant who is the person accused of committing the crime, and the jury (unless the trial is a bench trial) who listens to the evidence and decides the verdict.
