As long as evolutionism, the scientific theory generally accepted trespass the Newton's lows of motion described shortly as follows:

1). "An object will stay at rest or continue at a constant velocity unless acted upon by an external unbalanced force"
2). "The force on an object is equal to it's mass multiplied by it's acceleration"
3). "Every action has an equal and opposite reaction".

do you think that someone in the court will believe that
presuming the above lows are universally true and unchangeable then it means something had to give universe the first push. Otherwise, it can be proven that a killing object may move without being act upon by an external force just like it did before, therefore, any suspect may not be condemned unless caught in action.

I hate when religious people try to explain their faith in terms of science, when they clearly don't understand science beyond the level of 5th grade curricula, as exhibited here.

You only look silly when you misapply the basic principles of science and logic and try to pigeonhole them into a legal system, when none of it is related at all to each other, especially when you do it in the name of justifying your faith, which is also not related to any of the above.

Have your faith and be happy with it. It exists in a different realm then science.

The laws of physics do not nullify the initial act. The "push" or force exerted is created by the accused. The act is the crime not the weapon, per se. It is a crime to strike another being with a knife, but striking a tree, for example, is not. It is the result of the "push" that is under question.

This is more a philosophy question than a court could work with.

Interestingly, I know someone that insists that things can start motion without any outside force acting up them.

there is a difference btwn laws of science and laws of society. scientific evidence is only relevant if it is somehow tied to the facts and elements of the case. rules of science do not per se in and of themselves provide absolute proof or defense in a court of law and in every case. and that's assuming what your saying is true in any field of science

it's pretty obvious you don't know much about "branes" either creatrix, eggnogstic but thanks for the clarification

You have to look at ALL of the laws of Physics, not just Newton. What do lawyers know of branes and additional dimensions? Not much. Neither do you, evidently. (But don't worry - I don't know much about it either. That's why we have physicists.)

there are a number of forces that are ALWAYS acting, gravitation, weak nuclear force, strong nuclear force, magnetic force...these are ALWAYS acting...
