sixth roscio accusation of patricide

Ita ex Quaero you, C. Eruca: quo modo patrem Sextus Roscius occidit? ipse percussit an aliis iussum dedit? Si ipsum arguis, Romae non fuit, cum ille Ameriae iam multis annis esset; si per alios fecisse dicis, quaero: quos homines? Ameria? sicarios ex urbe? Si Ameria, qui sunt ei? Cur non nominantur? Si Roma, unde eos cognoverat Roscius, qui Romam multis annis non venit neque umquam plus triduo fuit?Ubi eos convenit? Quo modo persuasit? "Pretium dedit"; cui dedit? Per quem dedit? Unde aut quantum dedit? Hic vir vero ferus atque agrestis fuit, numquam in oppido constitit. Qua in re inest id quod maximum argumentum ad eius innocentiam puto: in rusticis moribus, in victu arido, in hac horrida incultaque vita istius modi maleficia gigni non solent. Ut non omnem arborem in omni agro find potes, non sic in omni Omne facinus unborn life

Translation

So I ask you, or Eruca: How Sixth Roscius killed his father? The beating he gave the order or to others? If you assert that it was not in Rome, since for many years was in America, if you say you have done this through others, I ask: What men? From America? Sicarii from the city? If America, who are these? Why are not called? If, instead of Rome, as they had met Roscoe, who was not in Rome for many years, and there remained no more than three days? Where they met? How persuaded them? "He gave them a reward," who gave it? To do what? Who took the money and what dropped? This man was really rude and rude, never stops in the city. This fact is contained what I believe is the greatest proof of his innocence
