Chapter 89 The Doomsday of the Dragon and Tiger Brothers
The defendant actually cried out for injustice in court.
Shen Tianci sneered and shook his head.
This kind of behavior can be said to be extremely stupid.
He understands this story very thoroughly, and the facts are absolutely clear and the evidence is sufficient.
Even if the legendary teacher Zhang San is hired as a defense lawyer, I am afraid it will be difficult to escape guilt.
What's more, Zhao Long and Zhao Hu both signed the "Pleas of Confession and Penalty", which means that they have confessed to the crimes they committed.
As a result, he went to court and suddenly changed his mind.
In this case, it would be better if it could be proved that one was wrongly accused. If there is no way to prove one's innocence, I'm afraid it will be taken into consideration in the final sentencing and the sentence will be harsher!
God can do evil, especially if he does it.
If you do your own evil, you will not live.
Shen Tianci began to submit evidence.
"This is a "Plea and Punishment Statement" signed and approved by the two defendants. They confessed to the crimes they committed..."
"This is the communication record between the victim and Longhu Brothers Moving Company on the 69 platform..."
"This is a surveillance video obtained from the scene. It can be clearly seen from the video that the victim expressed clear opposition to the defendant's taking away his personal belongings, but the defendant frightened the victim away by slamming the accelerator.
Forced to drive away..."
"This is the statement of witnesses at the scene..."
"This is the victim's order record and invoice for purchasing a Rolex watch..."
"This is……"
These evidences have been fixed by the public security organs and are very sufficient and clear.
There are no errors or omissions.
"To sum up,"
Shen Tianci took a deep breath and spoke in a deep voice: "The facts are clear and the evidence is sufficient. There is no possibility of unjust, false, or omissions!"
"The evidence of the defendant's robbery is conclusive!"
"The fact that the defendant retracted his confession in court shows that he has no intention of repenting. Please, your honor and the jurors, give the defendant a harsher sentence!"
Shen Tianci's voice was loud and powerful, like a heavy hammer hitting the hearts of brothers Zhao Long and Zhao Hu.
Judge Chen Zhonghan and the jurors all nodded slowly, expressing their approval of the evidence provided by Shen Tianci.
Then he looked at the defendant's seat.
"Defendant, do you have any objections to the evidence provided by the prosecutor?"
The expressions of the two people suddenly changed.
I felt inexplicably flustered.
The excuse just now was entirely because they were shocked by prosecutor Shen Tianci's lawsuit request. They lost their minds in desperation, and those words popped out of their minds as soon as they got hot.
At this moment, each piece of evidence listed by Shen Tianci was like buckets of ice water being poured on the two of them.
I shivered for a moment and woke up.
What followed was deep regret, fear, and feeling at a loss.
"Ah this..."
Zhao Long was suddenly confused and his mind went blank.
What objections can there be?
Could it be that the evidence provided by the police is false?
"well……"
Zhou Chaoqun sighed helplessly and stood up slowly.
Zhao Long's eyes suddenly lit up and his hope was rekindled.
then.
Zhou Chaoqun spoke: "Dear Judge, fellow jurors, we have no objection to the evidence. We have confessed to the prosecution's charges and admitted to committing the crime of robbery."
"Zhou, Lawyer Zhou, you..."
Zhao Long and Zhao Hu immediately became anxious.
Zhou Chaoqun ignored it and continued: "Our client is a first-time offender, and they have no strong subjective malice. They just lack a full understanding of the law and do not know that their behavior is robbery."
"Moreover, their actions did not cause significant losses to the victims. All property was returned in full and they actively compensated the victims for their losses, which shows that they have remorse."
"Therefore, I implore the judge to give a lighter sentence and give our client a chance."
Zhou Chaoqun said these words bravely.
After receiving the appointment from the Justice Bureau to serve as Zhao Long and Zhao Hu's defense lawyer, Zhou Chaoqun prepared his defense ideas in advance.
It is impossible to be innocent if you are innocent, and you cannot be innocent if you are full of mouth.
The police evidence chain can simply be described as perfect.
The wisest approach is to actively plead guilty, actively apologize, and actively compensate, so that the collegial panel can see an attitude.
On this basis, we should try to reduce the penalty as much as possible from the aspects of "first offender", "no subjective malice" and "no significant losses".
The defense ideas do not have to be fancy, as long as they are effective.
It's a pity that before Zhou Chaoqun started to exert his strength, he was stabbed in the back by the two brothers Zhao Long and Zhao Hu.
It was a stab in the ass and an eye-opener.
At this time, experienced barristers will adjust their defense ideas on the spot. At the very least, they must first make amends for Zhao Long and Zhao Hu’s tricks.
To some extent recover some of the lost impression points.
Then start your defense.
Regardless of the fact that young people are inexperienced, Zhou Chaoqun still followed the established defense ideas. It cannot be said that there were big mistakes, but at least the effect was definitely not as good as imagined in advance.
Sure enough, as soon as Zhou Chaoqun finished speaking, Shen Tianci stood up and refuted his defense one by one!
"I disagree with the defense attorney's assertion."
"Your Excellency, you just saw that the two defendants actually denied the crime in court on the premise of signing the "Plea and Acceptance of Punishment". This shows that they have no attitude of admitting guilt and accepting punishment at all!"
"Furthermore, it can be seen from the confession provided by the police that when defendant No. 1 was detained, he was wearing a personal item belonging to the victim, a Rolex watch!"
"This is enough to show that the defendants seized the victim's property not just to ask for wages, as they said, but with the malicious intention of taking it as their own!"
Shen Tianci glanced at it and then said: "Also, the police randomly contacted several customers they had served through the business orders of Longhu Brothers Moving Company, and they all said that they encountered a similar situation to the victim."
"It has almost become a common practice of Longhu Brothers Moving Company to raise the price temporarily and increase the price. On two occasions, they took away the other party's belongings because they were unwilling to pay."
"The defendant is not a first-time offender, but a repeat offender! It's just that no one reported the crime and no one pursued him in the past few times..."
One is an experienced prosecutor who has served as a prosecutor for who knows how many times.
One is a young legal aid lawyer who is new to the profession, lacks experience, and has encountered pig teammates.
The two themselves are not on the same level.
What's more, in public prosecution cases, defense lawyers have very little room to play.
The prosecution has an inherent advantage.
In this battle, Zhou Chaoqun lost completely.
During the next ten minutes of debate, he was completely unable to resist and was pushed to the ground and rubbed repeatedly.
Jiang Bai couldn't bear to see it.
Poor young lawyer, this trial will probably cause him a serious psychological shadow.
Finally, in the midst of suffering, the debate session ended.
Then comes the final statement.
Zhao Long and Zhao Hu were stammering and couldn't speak clearly.
Che Zhulun, who confessed his crime and begged for mercy, went back and forth.
Subsequently,
Chen Zhonghan banged the gavel to announce the adjournment of the trial, and left the courtroom with the jurors.
The verdict will be announced after the court reopens.
"Lawyer Zhou, can we still be saved?" Zhao Long looked at Zhou Chaoqun eagerly.
Zhou Chaoqun closed his eyes tiredly and pinched his eyebrows, indicating that he was tired and didn't want to talk.
Seeing this, Zhao Long and Zhao Hu looked at each other, and their hearts sank.
Half an hour flew by.
"winter!"
Reopen the court.
Everyone stand up.
Chen Zhonghan began to read out the verdict:
"The Criminal Tribunal of the People's Court of Binjiang District, Longcheng City, has completed the trial for Zhao Long and Zhao Hu's robbery."
"The following judgment is hereby made:"
"The defendant Zhao Long was found guilty of robbery, and the amount of robbery was huge... He was sentenced to 12 years in prison and fined 10,000 yuan."
"The defendant Zhao Hu was found guilty of robbery, and the amount of robbery was huge... He was sentenced to 12 years in prison and fined 10,000 yuan."
"The above judgment will officially take effect from the date of trial and will be implemented immediately!"
"If the defendant is dissatisfied with this judgment, he may appeal to the higher people's court within fifteen days."
"winter!"
The gavel fell.
At the same time, it also hit Zhao Long and Zhao Hu hard in the heart.
Their legs went weak and they collapsed on the dock.
His face was full of despair.
In the auditorium.
Li Chunlan slowly put on her sunglasses, stood up and left.
"Hey, Lawyer Wang, I'm Li Chunlan. Yes, yes, yes, is the divorce agreement I asked you to help draft ready?..."
