Chapter 125 No Deal
In the criminal cases tried in the West District, almost all the jurors were Westerners, and the "Junior Reynolds case" was no exception.

It was originally a massacre by a radical organization, but under the exaggeration of the Western media, it turned into an unfortunate incident in which a son of a nobleman suffered mental setbacks and murdered. Most Western media called this case the "Little Renault Case" ".

Hancock's defense against Booker was unsuccessful. Jordan, who was sitting in the position of the second prosecutor of the prosecution, mainly focused on Booker's crimes, showing his atrocities to the jury, including some appalling victims. The photos aroused a strong emotional resonance among the jury.

However, when Jordan mentioned insincerely that some of the atrocities involved Leno Jr., the jurors were very silent.

"Booker, this poor girl you call the grocery store piggy, when you dismembered her body, Jeff Raynor, the first defendant, was also there, and cut off the girl's arm, right?" Jordan confronted Booker on the witness stand.

Booker has big arms, a round waist, tattoos all over his body, and a fierce face, which makes people feel unfavorable at first sight.

"Objection!" It was Little Renault's defense lawyer Richard who raised his hand.

On the contrary, Booker's defense lawyer Hancock, from his point of view, it is not a bad thing for his client that Reynolds has been assigned some guilt.

"I have no problem for now!" Jordan bowed slightly to Judge Dempsey and retreated to the prosecution seat.

Richard got up and walked slowly to Booker.

"Excuse me, what is your relationship with Jeff Reynolds, Mr. Reynold Jr., the first defendant in this case?"

Booker thought for a while, "Our relationship is very good."

"According to the testimonies of many witnesses, the two of you often have secret talks together, don't you?"

"Yes, we will discuss together, who is the next target and how to hunt the target..."

"Objection!" Richard's expression changed immediately, "The statement given by the second defendant at the police station is not like this!"

In the prosecution seat, Jordan was also stunned, and looked at Lu Ming with even more surprise. Could it be that Commissioner Lu exerted some pressure?
Hancock stood up: "My client admitted to me an hour ago that he accepted a bribe from a Renault employee, so he gave a false statement! I will officially report it when the meeting is over!" He I was a little proud of myself. Originally, this case was paid very well, so I took it casually, and it would not affect anything if I lost the lawsuit. But now, the prosecution is holding on to Little Renault. If they take the opportunity to really change Little Renault As the main planner of these cases, if Booker can get rid of one or two charges, it can be said that from a technical level, he won Richard in this case. This is simply a result that he never dreamed of.

Moreover, God is looking after him, his client suddenly confessed to himself and accepted the bribe from Renault, so he took all the crimes on himself, and he found that if he was convicted, he would not be able to escape the gallows In the end, I regretted it very much, so I asked myself if there was any way to reduce the sentence, at least not to die.

Therefore, I planned this court raid.

Even if Richard had a deep talk with himself, he hoped that he and he could maintain a front.

Morally, I don't feel any pressure.

Among the accomplices, the suspects are actually hostile most of the time. If you reduce the sentence, the sentence for my client will be increased accordingly.

Looking at Richard who was frowning in front of the witness stand, Hancock sneered in his heart. If you didn't expect it, you can only say that you underestimated me too much.

"In court, I request to summon the 3rd, 5th, 6th, and 13th defendants!" Richard looked at the judge's bench.

These defendants are the defendants of some individual cases and the defendants of the entire White Rose organization. They are also the tainted witnesses in the case of Little Renault, and they are all involved in the several murders that Little Renault participated in.

Jordan, I'm a little sorry for them. These people, as tainted witnesses, in the prosecution deal, the prosecution only mitigated the crimes they participated in with Reynolds Jr., and did not make promises to reduce crimes in other cases. Many lawyers, basically legal aid lawyers, went through the motions and did not explain the key points to them dutifully at all. Therefore, they will still go to the gallows in the end, but they themselves do not know.

But thinking about what these people did, Jordan's sense of shame gradually disappeared.

The third defendant, named James, was a large, ugly man.

Richard walked up to him slowly, "James, how did you meet Mr. Reynolds?"

"Booker introduced us to each other." James said naively.

"How did Mr. Booker describe Mr. Renault Jr. to you?" asked Richard.

"Booker said this new friend was rich, but kind of goofy and out of his mind."

"This new friend refers to Mr. Renault Jr., the young man who is now sitting in the position of the first defendant, right?"

"Yes."

"There is a problem with his brain. Has Booker ever said, why is it said that Mr. Reynolds has a problem with his brain?"

"That's not true, but I know why Booker said that!" James smiled, licking his thick lips, "They all think I'm stupid, but I'm not!"

"Then tell me, what's wrong with Little Mr. Renault's brain?"

"When we took him to play, we never told him what to play, which was also explained by Booker, but before each play, we would play the music of "The Shepherd" in the hut, and then bring the prey in, He will become like a lunatic, very crazy..." James smiled and shook his head.

"I have no problem for now!" Richard bowed slightly to the court.

Jordan stood up and took two steps, "Mr. James, the 'play' you mentioned is the cruel killing of living people, and the 'prey' you mentioned was the victim of the tragedy on March 3 last year. The author is a 9-year-old girl with excellent character and learning, now, please describe how you killed her?"

Richard immediately raised his hand: "No, this is the prosecution's emotional manipulation of the jury!"

Jordan looked at the judge's bench, "Your Honor, I just want to confirm the specific behavior of Jeff Raynor in this case."

Judge Demps waved his hand: "The objection is invalid."

James smirked: "I slashed once, Abel slashed a second time, and some boys slashed a few times. Little Mr. Reynolds was in a daze, but suddenly went crazy. He was the craziest, facing the corpse It can still be chopped down, seven or eight times in a row."

Jordan frowned, and suddenly realized that this guy was not stupid at all. The bloody scene became less terrifying under his description. The victim became a symbol, and it is very likely that he The description of Little Renault will be used by Richard in the future.

"Before the victim died, what parts did you cut off?"

Charles immediately raised his hand: "Objection, the relevant detailed description should be used in the trial of the case numbered 950092161. In this case, the witness has already answered the specific behavior of Jeff Reynolds."

"The objection is valid, and the witness does not need to answer." Judge Dempsey waved his hand.

Jordan nodded and looked at James, "For Jeff Raynor, you use crazy to describe, how do you define crazy and normal people? For example, when you kill people, are you in a state of insanity?"

Charles raised his hand: "No, the witness is not a professional. The madness he said is just our common sense perception. The prosecution asked him to make a definition, which is difficult for others."

"The objection is valid."

Jordan still wanted to ask more questions, but when he saw Lu Ming's hand gesture, he nodded helplessly, "I don't have a problem anymore!"

Turned around and walked back to the seat.

Lu Ming patted him on the shoulder, "If it was me, I wouldn't do better."

Jordan shook his head, a little frustrated.

"A 10-minute adjournment!" Dempsey tapped the gavel, naturally it was time to go to the bathroom.

When everyone was moving freely, Hancock came over, handed over a note, and placed it on the prosecution table.

It read, "Life imprisonment, charges against Raynor Jr.."

Jordan saw it, and his heart moved immediately. If he reached a plea agreement with Booker, and Booker would accuse Reynolds Jr., it might really be the best solution to this lawsuit.

Lu Ming shook his head, "Gallows."

Hancock stared at Lu Ming with a sullen face for a while, then turned and left.
