The case was held in the public eye. On the day of the hearing, the wind was sunny and neither hot nor cold. I heard that "Australians" wanted to ask questions about the case. People from all over the country and workers and employees who were not at work went to the business store one after another.
Come here. The ground floor here is the Dongmen City Simple Court where the case will be heard. This court is small and decorated in a modern style, but the auditorium inside only has 60 seats. For this reason, Li Mei sent people to
Many benches were placed in the corridors in the middle and back rows for additional seating.
Even so, more and more people have been coming since early in the morning. According to Mu Min's estimate, at 8 o'clock in the morning, there were more than a thousand people gathered at the entrance of the commercial building to prepare for the hearing, and there was a steady stream of people.
came. It was expected that eventually 3,000 people would gather near the shopping mall.
Only a handful of people can get seats. All tickets are available for free at the entrance of the mall, but those who take the tickets must show their ID and leave their number. In order to prevent commotion, according to Mu Min's request, Dong
All the security companies and battalion headquarters in the stores were put on alert. Police station personnel canceled their rotations and all went on duty. The military industry department prepared a large amount of pepper tear gas for the security companies to attack, and internal and external staff of the Political Security Bureau were also dispatched as plainclothes personnel.
In the crowd.
The emergency response headquarters for emergency prevention is located on the second floor of the Dongmen City Police Station, in a special observation room. The main leaders of the judiciary, police, political security departments and the military are here, ready to respond to emergencies at any time.
The trial has not yet begun, but seeing the crowd slowly gathering on the street, an uneasy atmosphere began to spread among the senior members of the Countermeasures Headquarters. There seemed to be too many people! In front of the shopping mall and the police station
On Dongmen Avenue, the crowd had become crowded, and the police had to intervene to maintain order.
Most of the veterans of the Countermeasures Headquarters have never seen such a battle. They can no longer sit on the wicker sofa and talk about whether the new marriage law is monogamy, polygamy or polygamy. Li Mei especially felt uneasy.
, she was deeply afraid of causing a commotion and messing up the market. That day, the army and navy gang fights caused by sailors beating their wives on the street caused Dongmen City to lose a lot of property and business. Later, the army and navy compensated for the losses, but still
This business elite was terrified - people doing business were most afraid of riots. When a riot broke out, the first thing to suffer was the store.
"Should we let the security battalion come in to maintain order? Will so many people cause a stampede?"
"No need, it's enough for the security battalion to stand outside," Mu Min said confidently, "They can have a great deterrent effect by standing there with their uniforms straight. Don't worry, this scene is normal at the moment. No
Any sign of loss of control."
"There are so many people, and there won't be more than 100 people with tickets. What will happen to the others?" Ma Jia was a little worried.
"It's okay. Do we have cable broadcast? It's just a live broadcast."
In order to ensure that as many people as possible can hear the content of the trial, Ding Ding had microphones installed in the court and the lines were connected to the broadcast network system that was originally set up on the streets of Dongmen City. In this way, even on the street, people can hear
Throughout the entire court hearing process, in order to facilitate the naturalized people to understand the background information, Zhang Yu was specially called in to provide broadcast explanations.
The crowd was directed to the loudspeakers all over the street, where they could stand and listen to the entire court proceedings. The richer ones occupied teahouses, restaurants and small tea shops according to their respective financial capabilities, brewed a pot of tea in them, and occupied
Each seat is comfortable to listen to the excitement. As for the people sitting or standing on the streets, sidewalks and wastelands, there are also vendors to take care of them.
"Cigarettes! Melon seeds! Dried sweet potatoes!"
"Soda! Kombucha!"
“Bopu’s dried octopus will make you want to take another bite after one bite!”
"We're renting small stools! Listen to the trial comfortably!"
…
Several policemen checked the tickets and ID cards of everyone with tickets at the entrance of the court, making sure that each seat had a real name. There were still 30 minutes left before the court, and the auditorium of the court was already packed, with many ***
He was dripping with sweat. The windows were all opened for ventilation and to prevent those who climbed on the windows from smashing the glass. A row of police trainees transferred from the police training class stood shoulder to shoulder by the wall of the court.
, eyeing the crowded auditorium.
At nearly 9 o'clock, a policeman shouted: "Please keep quiet! Put out the cigarette! Stand up!" With the sound of stools being dragged, the presiding judge walked in through a door behind the seat.
Xu was wearing the latest custom-made robe. The robe was of British style, pure black, with a sitting figure of a beast on the chest, and a black Song Dynasty-style long-legged headdress.
Some people even knelt down with their legs weak.
Quan is holding a huge black leather-covered code with "Australian and Song Code" written in gold letters on it, which fully demonstrates the legal dignity represented by the code he is holding.
Quan Quan climbed up to the judge's seat at the top with a solemn expression. Seeing everyone looking at him, he felt a little proud in his heart - does it feel good to be a judge? It's just that the strange swaying of the long-legged futon's head is a little bit...
Not used to it. Li Li picked up the gavel and struck it down, and then used a long bass to keep the court quiet: "Now the court is in session!"
Then, the unlucky young man was brought into the court by the police, stood on the defendant's seat, and was identified according to the usual procedures. The first burst of discussion rang out in the auditorium. Everyone thought about the "adulterer ***" in the case.
They were surprised that they did not appear together. And the most important "benevolent husband" did not appear either. Many people even felt disappointed - you know that the trial of adultery cases has always been entertaining for the people. Now there is only one "adult"
"Husband" appears.
According to the proceedings, the district prosecutor usually spoke first. An Xi was a little trembling when he stood up from the prosecutor's seat - probably nervous. Xu Xu knew that this person's professional level was "extremely bad", and many
I can't memorize the basic legal provisions. Several people in the Law Society said that this person claims to be a law degree holder, but no matter how you look at it, he is just an adult law student who doesn't study hard. If he hadn't relied on saddle horses to run forward and backward.
He runs around and contributes a lot to the Law Society, but the Law Society may not accept this person at all.
Although he read from the script, An Xi's speech was still stumbling. He first explained the entire case process, including the fact of adultery, and presented the transcripts of the oral confessions of all parties. The transcripts were read out one by one by ***. First
The confession was the suspect's own confession. At first, everyone felt that this kind of interrogation was a bit boring, but after hearing the detailed confession transcript, many people became interested again-this kind of privacy-related content is always very attractive.
.Finally, An Xi presented the client’s own confession, admitting that adultery had occurred between her and the suspect.
He then asked the suspect if he had any objections to his confession just read out.
The suspect said no, and then the prosecution began to call witnesses, including several villagers from Meiyang Village and colleagues of the client who worked in the store. They all gave relevant circumstantial evidence.
"...I've finished my statement. Thank you, Mr. Judge." An Xi wiped the sweat from his forehead. Although he was just reading out the prosecution materials step by step, he was still very nervous.
Then the court was allowed to adjourn - it was almost noon. People in the auditorium began to disperse, and many people were talking. Not many people were talking about the case itself. What was most talked about was the entire trial process, including a large number of people.
Confessions, testimonies and circumstantial evidence seem to be much more elegant than the questioning in the lobby in the past - there are no vicious government officials, and there are no various exciting scenes of torture. Without these, the trial would be a bit boring, but,
The large number of detailed descriptions composed of oral confessions and testimonies aroused additional interest.
Li Mei had already asked the cooperative restaurant to make a large number of box lunches for sale around the store, and they were quickly sold out, allowing the cooperative to make a small profit. Of course, the business of the surrounding restaurants and restaurants was also booming.
The court session continues at 12 o'clock - in the view of the Time Travel Group, the lunch break from 11:30 to 13:00 in the old time and space is a waste of time. In their work and rest system, the lunch break is over at 12 o'clock.
The case is actually over here, but the defense process still has to go through. This is what the people hearing the trial are most interested in. The case inquiry also allows people to specially defend the prisoner. This is really the first time I have heard of it. To do this before
In the past, it was only a question of whether the prisoner admitted or not. So everyone wanted to see what the Australian defense meant.
What Ji Xin did was plead for a lighter sentence - after all, the suspect had confessed, and the case was already finalized, so he didn't need to pull any other stunts.
He focused on the suspect's family situation and the unfortunate experiences of his family - of course, the reasons for the death of the two brothers were concealed to avoid leaving a bad impression on industrialization. Then he summoned several
Witnesses stated that the suspect had always been "honest in his duties" in the village and had never done anything harmful to nature, let alone molesting women. The "sabotage of military marriages" this time was mainly due to the fact that the family was poor and could not afford a wife.
People are young, so they accidentally make mistakes. And he pointed out that the female client also has a certain responsibility for the circumstances of the adulterous relationship.
Ji Xin's words were gentle and he spoke with reason, and his performance in court was ten times better than An Xi's - the atmosphere in the gallery clearly expressed great regret for the suspect. Xu thought, this
If the case were to be decided by a jury, his performance alone would be enough to impress the jury.
