At the beginning, you fooled the school flower, and ended up with two babies?

Chapter 292
The trial proceeded normally.

The defendant's reporters also explained the incident one by one. Unexpectedly, the seven of them voluntarily admitted that they broke into the emergency department to interview Gu Yu.

But regarding their alleged defamation of Gu Yu, the seven of them unified their caliber and claimed that they released the news in a fair and objective manner as media professionals.

"As for the video my client posted on the Douying platform, I don't think my client is criminally liable. There are sufficient regulations to show that my client is only civilly liable."

"At the same time, our party admitted that it violated Article 24 of the Civil Code: civil subjects enjoy the right of reputation.

However, according to Article 25 of this code: if the actor conducts news reports, public opinion supervision, etc. for the public interest, and affects the reputation of others, he shall not bear civil liability.

"Our party, as a news media reporter, complies with Article 25 of the actor's behavior. Although there are inaccuracies in the report, but the circumstances are excusable, our party is willing to bear part of the civil liability."

The defense lawyer of the reporter from Shanghai Times News defended his client with a calm expression.

Duan Jun, a reporter from Metropolitan Daily, raised his head and looked at Gu Yu calmly.

Before the trial, his lawyer had already assured him that he was only civilly liable, as long as he admitted his mistake and stopped infringing on Gu Yu's reputation in time, the major issue could be reduced to a minor one.

So before he came, he deleted all the videos he had posted, and at the same time posted an apology letter on the Internet.

Although I don't want to apologize in my heart, I still have to be honest in court right now.

When a criminal dispute turns into a civil dispute, it is nothing more than to stop the infringement and compensate for some losses. At worst, it can be detained for a few days.

Duan Jun and the other defendant reporters looked at each other, and they met each other without much nervousness.

It is obvious that they have passed the gas in private.

Hearing the lawyer's words, the presiding judge thought for a moment, and then had a brief communication with the judge.

"May I ask the plaintiff's defense attorney how to explain it?"

The presiding judge looked at Luo San, he couldn't just listen to what the family said.

Luo San seemed to have guessed that the other party would weaken the pressure of handling responsibilities, so he just said lightly: "As a media reporter, he has a huge social influence. The video you released has caused millions of people to read and spread it. It has already had an extremely reputational impact on our client.”

"At the same time, it seriously hindered our client's daily work and life."

"You have committed the crime of defamation under Article 240 of the Criminal Law. The circumstances are serious. If your legal studies are not good, I suggest you watch my video again."

Luo San's eyelids drooped slightly, and his sharp eyes shined directly on Duan Jun's defense lawyer through the lens.

Especially when the last sentence was spoken, it directly made the other party blush with anger.

Duan Jun's defense lawyer immediately gritted his teeth in hatred.

Not to mention being questioned about his professional ability, but also being ridiculed by the other party!
Watching his Luo San's video, doesn't it mean that he hasn't graduated yet, so he has to watch and study hard?
He was too angry to speak.

But he couldn't refute what Luo San said.

Fortunately, another defense lawyer next to him took over his difficulties.

"Our party has stopped infringing on your party's reputation before the video caused serious adverse consequences. At the same time, the video released by our party is a rumor released by an individual without authorization."

"According to the provisions of the General Principles of Civil Law of our country, if the spread of rumors infringes upon the right of reputation of an individual citizen or the goodwill of a legal person, he shall bear the responsibility of stopping the infringement, restoring the reputation, eliminating the influence, making an apology and compensating for losses."

"So there is sufficient evidence to prove that our party only constitutes civil liability."

The Civil Code was not good enough, and the defense lawyer moved out of the general principles of the Civil Law, changing his client's behavior from defamation to spreading rumors personally.

The accused journalists were a little flustered at first, but when they heard the lawyer's defense, they shouted hello again.

Turning the crime of defamation into personal rumors, detention is better than jail!
In the worst case, he would compensate Gu Yu with more money, and the seven of them would not be able to pay much together.

Seeing everyone's admiring eyes, the defense lawyer suddenly showed a proud expression on his face.

He even glanced at Luo San provocatively.

But Luo San didn't take his provocation seriously at all, he just sighed faintly: "Another person who became a lawyer without studying law well."

At this remark, the lawyer stared at him with a very dissatisfied expression.

"This is the case according to the regulations. Can you come up with relevant regulations to refute me?"

He stared at Luo San, wanting to see how Luo San would answer.

Luo San took a sip of the tea lightly, as if he felt that talking to him was tedious:

"It is still Article 240 of the Criminal Law, the newly issued judicial interpretation, using the information network to slander others, causing mass incidents and causing public disorder, should be determined as seriously endangering social order and national interests as stipulated in the second paragraph of Article 240 of the Criminal Law. .”

"Our party is a doctor at the Affiliated Hospital of Haidong University. After the release of the defamatory video, a large number of angry netizens stormed the hospital and blocked the hospital gate, seriously affecting the normal operation of national medical services and causing traffic jams at the hospital gate."

"Of course, this is just a casual mention. You will have to defend this when you are prosecuted."

Luo San spoke out his defense in one breath.

The second defendant's lawyer was speechless again.

Reporter Duan Jun and the others panicked. Isn't Gu Yu the only one who sued them?
Why is this being prosecuted again?
This private lawsuit is not over yet!
Why is there another official lawsuit?

Duan Jun and the others looked at their defense lawyers, who quickly turned their faces away.

The faces of several lawyers were not very good-looking.

This big event has become smaller and bigger...

"Speak up? Why don't you speak up? Aren't you lawyers? Rebuttal!" Wu Hong, a reporter from Shanghai Times Times, looked pale and dragged the lawyer beside her to urge her.

The lawyer kept his mouth shut, not knowing how to refute Luo San.

As expected of a mage, this set of combos is simply impeccable!

"Are you finished? Then let me add one more thing to you?"

With an invincible and lonely expression on Luo San's face, he gave the defendants another lightning strike in the most indifferent tone.

"Didn't you say the Civil Procedure Law? Did the defense lawyer of Ms. Wu Hong just say that you have deleted the defamatory video?

Well, according to the provisions of the Civil Procedure Law, those who falsify or destroy important evidence and obstruct the trial of a case by the people's court shall be investigated for criminal responsibility according to law. "

"..."

Everyone at the scene was silent, Duan Jun and the others only felt that there was a thunderbolt, how did this turn from a civil dispute to a criminal investigation.

They just feel that their heads are a mess now, if.

"Can't escape and go to jail...?" As the instigator of the whole time, Duan Jun muttered to himself.

He has been a reporter for so many years, and he has experienced large and small illegal and criminal incidents, but he did not expect that this time he would suffer a solid blow himself.

"No...even if I go to jail, I won't make it easy for you!"

He looked at Gu Yu, who was flirting with his girlfriend across the way, with a relaxed smile on his face, and viciousness flashed across his eyes.

A thought that would destroy everything came to his mind.

This idea intensified in his mind and gradually turned into motivation.
