ADVERTISEMENT Early life Turnabout Goodbyes THAT'S WHEN I HEARD HIS FATHER WAS A DEFENSE ATTORNEY. I REMEMBER, HIS EYES WOULD SHINE WHEN HE TALKED ABOUT HIS FATHER. Baby Miles Edgeworth in fourth grade, standing up for Phoenix Wright during the class trial. In early 2001, when Edgeworth was nine years old, someone stole his lunch money. The suspect at the time was fellow student Phoenix Wright, who had skipped P.E. that day due to a terrible cold. The next day, a class trial was held with Wright as the defendant. Everyone was shouting that Wright was the culprit, but both Edgeworth and Larry Butz, another classmate, stood up for him, saying that no one had any proof that he was responsible. The class trial ended and the three boys became almost inseparable friends. Edgeworth deduced that Butz was the thief, but admired the way the boy had stood up for Wright, so he let the issue go. Edgeworth would often talk with his friends about his father, famous criminal defense attorney Gregory Edgeworth, whom he idolized. Edgeworth was a very bright pupil and won awards in school for various activities such as golf competitions, writing essays, and playing the flute.[3] Even back then, he hated the limelight and refuted all accolades and prizes he received. However, he broke down into tears when he failed at a task, such as his attempt at origami,[4] and went to great lengths to ensure that his next attempt was successful.

Between December 2000 and December 2001, Edgeworth would go to the District Court to see one of his father's trials. Gregory was arguing a case against the undefeated prosecutor Manfred von Karma. During the course of the trial, Gregory accused von Karma of using faulty evidence, and on December 28, 2001, finally managed to prove that the prosecutor had coerced a confession from his client, Samson Tangaroa. Because of this, von Karma received his first and only penalty. However, von Karma still won and Tangaroa was declared guilty. After court was adjourned, the Edgeworths went to exit the courthouse through an elevator, accompanied by bailiff Yanni Yogi. At approximately 2:00 p.m., an earthquake struck the courthouse and shut off the power, leaving Yogi and the Edgeworths trapped in the elevator with little oxygen. During the five-hour blackout, Yogi started to panic and attacked Gregory. Miles felt a pistol beneath his feet and threw it at the bailiff, hoping to stop him from possibly killing his father. A single gunshot rang out, and the young boy fell unconscious. The last thing he heard was a horrifying scream that would haunt him for the next 15 years. He woke up inside a hospital; by that time, Gregory Edgeworth was dead, fatally shot in the heart by Yogi's pistol. Miles developed a deathly fear of earthquakes and elevators from the incident. The police called upon a spirit medium, Misty Fey, to find the killer. She channeled Gregory, who accused Yogi of the murder. Yogi was subsequently put on trial, with Robert Hammond defending him. Yogi feigned temporary insanity and got a not guilty verdict. This ruined his reputation, with his fiancee committing suicide shortly after the incident. Meanwhile, media outlets found out about Fey's involvement, and the resulting scandal ruined the reputation of her family. Miles subsequently developed a hatred for defense attorneys and spirit mediums, calling Fey a "fraud". Miles was then taken under the wing of Manfred von Karma, who trained him to become a ruthless prosecutor like himself. Through this, Miles met Manfred's young daughter Franziska, with whom he would develop a strong and shared bond. Miles is currently 16, studying law. He is quiet and reserved. He looks like this: Fair skin, dark greyish-brown hair with a sleek, central-parted fringe and a prominent cowlick in the back, striking grey eyes. Standing 5'10" (178cm).

It doesn't matter how many underhanded tricks a person uses... the truth will always find a way to make itself known. The only thing we can do is to fight with the knowledge we hold and everything we have. Erasing the paradoxes one by one... it's never easy... we claw and scratch for every inch. But we will always eventually reach that one single truth. this I promise you.
