But this is NOT correct. The chief prosecutor at the real life Scopes "Monkey" trial was in fact Thomas A. "Tom" Stewart, Attorney General for the 18th district where the trial took place. Stewart headed a team that included a further 7 people (in alphabetical order): William Jennings Bryan (volunteer - assistant prosecutor) William Jennings Bryan Jnr (volunteer - assistant prosecutor, W.J. Bryan's son) Wallace Haggard (volunteer - assistant prosecutor) Herbert Hicks (volunteer - assistant prosecutor) Sue Hicks (volunteer - assistant prosecutor, Herbert Hicks' brother) Ben McKenzie (volunteer - assistant prosecutor, retired district attorney-general) J.
