In last comic they said Richard didnt even killed one of his party... but thats not truth! He killed Cale in the very beginning! So?

He wasn't killed. He was merely burnt to ashes and put in a bag with a centipede. Let me know when dead people can talk and see (zombies not included).

How can ashes talk with no lungs and vocal folds is a better question.

And how could HE see anything??
By the way, even if he WAS dead, he brought him to a cleric/priestess to revive him.....so...

He did that because he found Cale amusingly naive and was thinking up ways to keep tormenting him.

But still, he reversed his 'kill'

Richard didn't, Benny did that.
Richard let her so he could FWOOM Cale again at some later point in time

But then decided it was more fun messing with his mind (e. g. "Illusion spell" around the entrance to gnome city)

If Cale wasn't killed then what was he? Banished? Troculated? Refurbished? Lotta people in the "real" world end up as a pile of ashes.
<realizes he mentioned the "real" world and starts to beat head on keyboard in penance>
Besides one could argue that Cale's death happened before Richard actually joined him..... not that it really matters.

i think the main point is that he hasn't killed or hurt anyof them for awhile.

But he definitly "killed" him. REviving is another thing. But he killed him. He should use that as argument at the counsel

Well he's killed things, but not out of random violence & evil. He's done so out of the sheer fact that being around Cale, Benny and Krunch allows him access to killing things.
Rip Van Ishmael

I think the issue is that he only killed the things made convenient by hanging out with Cale and co. You really believe that Richard can only live vicariously through other people presenting him opportunities to kill?

I always took it as a character mistake instead of a comic mistake. I imagine the prosecutor looked in on Richard and saw him meet Cale. Then a few days later he looked in again and saw Richard still with Cale, and now also Gid, thus bypassing the whole death/ressurection thing.

Yeh, he didn't kill anyone of his
party.
At the beginning Richard and Cale were just two strangers. Richard "killed" Cale, or "torched" him or whatever.
But, they weren't friends at that time, neither they had already formed a party. So, it doesn't count as "friendly fire".
Well, just my opinion. Later, when they became a little group of adventurers, Richard made Cale suffer often, but never killed him.

I agree they were not in a group yet so he did not kill a member of his party

Well... It may be, that Richard could use the fact that he just killed himself two times after breaking through time and space.
It COULD count as suicide and Richard IS a part of his party.
Rencol

In fact he casted fireballs many times on him! But Benny shielded Cale with spell. And we are in the end of the comic: if his glove was fitting good, he definitly killed him

well it says "your use of red was inspired" as to say the Sisters were inspired by something to use red. "your use of red was inspiring" would mean that Richard was inspired by their use of red.

My thoughts are that this was an oversight by the author; however, not a very major one since technically it was only a statement made by a character. My theory is Mr. Headless Prosecutor could indeed be twisting the truth here. All of Richard's cohorts are still alive. He did murder
Kale Cale (albeit he could still talk and see - see
the Rule of Funny); but what the jury does not know will not hurt them.
Alternately, Richard being called a dick justified his actions, therefore it was not murder :P.

He does seem to be an expert on the laws. Such behavior is expected. Bend the rules, twist the truth...
