On October 11, 2018, a “mock trial”/field trip was held at the Polk County Courthouse for Lakeland Christian School fifth-grade students. County Court Judge Robert G. Fegers was the presiding judge as the Mock Trial Team students “tried” the case of State of Florida v. The Big Bad Wolf. The wolf was found “not guilty.” Who knew that Mr. Wolf is vegan!
