【504】You are guilty!

Long Hao's appearance really won a lot of sympathy points, among other things, just looking at his pale face day after day, is enough to arouse the sympathy of most of the audience, and this seems to be very important to the jury. Groups also have some effect.

No, on the day of May [-]th, three members of the jury have proposed to the prosecutor five times, suggesting that the rest time of the trial should be increased to give the Earl of Beihai a space to rest...

By May [-]th, the cards in the hands of both sides have almost been dealt. Now that things are back to the original point, the most important focus of contention is... Is Coentram's testimony credible? Escape on a destroyer?

The situation is extremely unfavorable to Long Hao, which can be seen from the actions of the chief lawyer of the defense constantly wiping his sweat.

However, things suddenly took a turn for the worse at this time. The door of the court was broken open, and Benson sent someone to point out in court: These two navies did not serve at their naval base in Seattle at all!

On the other hand, Long Hao smiled and took out a secret file of the US Ministry of Defense, which clearly stated that these two people were soldiers of the US Navy stationed on the east coast half a year ago!

There is no doubt that these two men are committing perjury!

Coentrao is lying too!

"Impossible, impossible! You guys are fake resumes, forged, this is framed, this is cheating!"

Coentrao was very excited, showing his teeth and claws, wishing he could swallow the material.

Long Hao just coughed, spread his hands and said, "Skynet is very sparse and not leaky, and cheating will always be secret. You should be mentally prepared. If you want to frame others, you must be prepared to be exposed by others! Then, you What's the last move? Continue to let our lovely audience listen. Do you see your clumsy inversion of black and white? Ahem..."

Things have developed to this point, Long Hao Xianyu has turned over, undoubtedly a big step closer to being acquitted, the face of the White House is about to be severely slapped again!

The Chief Counsel of the Commonwealth and his team looked like bitter melons.Green ugly.

However, no one expected that Coentraan gritted his teeth and threw out a trump card that no one expected.

"I still have a witness, Your Honor, give me three ten minutes, and I'll call her in."

"Any witnesses?"

The police officer was also taken aback: It's been almost ten days, if you have a new witness, why don't you tell me earlier, what do you want to do?Do you enjoy being a witness?

Or...do you still need someone to give false testimony?

have to say. The police officer is also a little biased towards Long Hao now.

"Please allow your honor, because this person's identity is a bit special..."

Coentraan's expression was tangled, but he finally said: "She is my daughter. I once asked her to serve the Earl of Beihai. She collected a lot of evidence secretly!"

"Vivian! How could it be you!!"

In the auditorium in the first row, Mrs. Caponella, who had defended Long Hao as a witness, had the urge to faint: it turned out that the 'new witness' who walked in through the small door with her head bowed was not someone else.It was Vivian, the maid she once gave to Long Hao!

Vivienne is Coentraan's daughter? !

I do not know how! ?

Chini Carbonella suddenly felt like the sky was falling, her old housekeeper.Apart from this betrayal, how many other things are you hiding from yourself?

Vivienne was arranged by him by his side. If he hadn't deliberately dedicated her and other virgins to the earl, then there would be such a nail by his side now!

It was just too, too scary!

Vivian walked onto the witness stand with her head down.She didn't dare to look at Chini Carbonella, her voice was weak and small, but the testimony she gave was just like what Coentraan said, like a bolt from the blue, which dealt a heavy blow to the count.

"...what I said is the truth. I was given to the Earl of Beihai by his wife. He personally admitted to me that he threatened his wife and asked her to keep it a secret for him. Madam is lying. The five warships are indeed the Earl of Beihai. It crashed!"

Vivienne not only said that, but also produced a lot of evidence, which proved that she was not talking about empty words and spouting blood.

One of the most favorable evidences is that she publicly revealed the hidden features of Long Hao, which at least proved her close relationship with Long Hao.

It’s nothing to be aristocratic and romantic, but Vivienne was originally Mrs. Caponella’s personal maid. This relationship can’t help but be pondered. In addition, Coentram said that Vivienne was his illegitimate daughter. It makes people think about it.

Could it be that in order to collect the criminal evidence of the Earl of Beihai, the butler purposely let his daughter feed a tiger with her body, and used her innocent body to obtain useful information?

It has to be said that human beings always gossip and have rich imagination when discussing the relationship between men and women. At this moment, everyone's IQ has increased by at least [-]%!

There were nearly [-] auditoriums on the fourth floor, and nearly [-]% of them felt sympathy for the lovely and pitiful Vivienne for a while, and some outspoken new-age women even shouted loudly, and the object of the scolding was naturally Long Hao, and The content of the reprimand is nothing more than his licentiousness, shamelessness, cruelty and all kinds of cruelty.

The appearance of Vivienne caused Long Hao, who had the upper hand, to fall to the bottom of the abyss, while Coentran's side reappeared. The barrister at the top of the Federation also smiled, and couldn't help but stepped forward to pat Coente. Lang's back, meaning: Good guy, there is a way, such favorable evidence can be endured until this time before it is produced, it is cruel enough!

Really cruel!

Coentram's trump card made Long Hao's side almost collapse, but the price he paid...was nothing more than a weeping Vivienne who was almost mentally broken.

Betrayed the wife whom he regarded as his own, abandoned his own dignity, suddenly heard the identity of his biological father, and... against his conscience to testify against the earl.

All of this, to a cardamom girl in her twenties, seemed so heavy and so cruel...

"Silence! Please be quiet, everyone!"

The low sound of hammering echoed in the hall of the court. Facing the situation that was about to get out of control, the court judge had no choice but to maintain the situation.

With the assistance of the judicial police, it took more than ten minutes for the trial hall to return to a controllable situation. However, the whispering of the audience could not be stopped no matter what.

"Earl of Beihai. Do you have anything to defend?" Condescendingly, the military officer asked Long Hao seriously.

Vivian's confession and evidence were too lethal. If Long Hao hadn't fought back forcefully, then the crime would probably be settled.

"I have nothing to say..."

There was no panic on Long Hao's face, he acted as if the matter had nothing to do with him.With a calm face and a smile on his lips, "I have reservations about what this witness said, but she was indeed given to me by Mrs. Caponella, and she has served me, so of course I have some characteristics about me. I will understand it very well! On this point, I admit it!"

"Shh..."

Behind Long Hao, rows of boos roared like a tsunami from the auditorium on the fourth floor.

The Earl of Beihai... pleaded guilty?

He did exactly what the maid said.After sinking the battleship and massacring the navy soldiers, he coerced the witness, Mrs. Caponera, and despicably asked the other party to provide a maid for him to play with?

My God, according to this, the beautiful Lisbon widow was also touched by him?

Woohoo, what a shame!The good cabbage was raped by a yellow-skinned pig... This lustful and bloodthirsty Earl of Beihai should be hanged!

**The official said: "The defense lawyer. What else do you want to say?"

Long Hao's defense team was still in shock for a long time.The number one barrister in California stood up with an ugly face, and said in a hoarse voice, "Your Honor, we request an adjournment!"

During the adjournment, Long Hao was greeted by Mrs. Caponella when she was leaving the court. She was full of guilt and kept apologizing to Long Hao.

"Don't worry. Everything will be fine."

Long Hao, who was sitting in a wheelchair, said something lightly, and was pushed out by Yuan'er.

Long Hao's words fell into Mrs. Caponera's ears, and of course they were more like words of helpless comfort. She stood there in a daze, her face paled.Sweat drenches the back.

Of course she knew whether Long Hao had sunk the five American destroyers, but she resolutely chose to side with Long Hao. This was driven by interests and her optimism about Long Hao's future. If Hao is convicted, the Federation will have a legitimate reason to deal with Long Hao, then her "investment" will be in vain, and her family will also face catastrophe!

She and Long Hao are already grasshoppers on the same rope, both prosper and lose.

Mrs. Caponella's concerns were quickly verified, and the interrogation continued on the second day, but this time, the speed of the interrogation was significantly accelerated.

Perhaps it was because the evidence proving Long Hao's guilt was already sufficient, or for some other reason... In the afternoon, the prosecutor announced that the jury had withdrawn and began to discuss, based on the previous evidence and the testimony of both the prosecution and the defense, whether Long Hao guilty judgment.

It only started yesterday, but it ended today, and the frequency changed so quickly that everyone in the auditorium was a little surprised: What is this for?Are you in a hurry to convict the Earl of Beihai?Shouldn't we wait and see what convincing evidence the Earl could come up with to refute it?Shhh, is the prosecutor still from California?How do you feel that you are leaning towards the Federation?

For a while, there were boos and debris flying in the hall, but the bailiff didn't intervene this time, and the jury and jury exited in embarrassment under the booing and rain of debris.

It can be seen that there are still quite a few fans of Long Hao in the auditorium.

The results of the jury's discussion were not hindered in the slightest by boos, and came out quickly.

When the magistrate announced in an emotionless voice: "...Earl of Beihai, you are guilty!", the entire trial hall fell into a deathly silence. Laughing hysterically.

"Hahaha, you deserve it most! You hypocrite, you deceived my wife, and even harmed my daughter. Now, you finally get your retribution! Retribution is not good, not good!"

Coentrao smiled, and suddenly twitched. When the doctor came to rescue him, his head slumped on the ground was always looking in the direction of Chini Carbonella, a sheet covered with white foam. He murmured in a voice that only he could hear: "Qini, it's in vain that I treat you so well, you bitch, but you still choose a little boy..."

"The Earl of Beihai was convicted of massacring naval soldiers, and he will be sentenced to 360 years in prison according to law!" "

The news, like wings, spread quickly throughout San Francisco, California... and even the entire United States.

Long Hao's side is full of mourning, while the external forces who want to take advantage of the fire are celebrating and gearing up to share the cake.

Long Hao is about to go to jail, and he has a huge business empire under his name.But a big piece of fat!

Not only the Rockefeller family who planned all this, but also the Morgan and other financial consortiums who were watching the show withered.

They waved their knives and forks, showing their dark yellow teeth, and decided to cut Long Hao to pieces!

Morgan Consortium: "The San Francisco Exchange is an illegal exchange run by the Earl of the North Sea. We suggest that the New York Stock Exchange on Wall Street be responsible for hosting and rectifying... wait until everything conforms to federal regulations, and then reopen for business!"

The Rockefeller family: "Meihao Chemical Plant and Liren Daily Necessities. The suspected use of improper chemical element additives has caused immeasurable hidden dangers to consumers' bodies. With the authorization of the federal government, the petrochemical plant under its name will temporarily rectify them. Sell ​​some of its shares to the society, and welcome people of insight to come and redeem the evil industry of the Earl of Beihai and guide it to the right path!"

President Glover Cleveland: "The White House has contacted Todd, and he has made it clear that the process of selling Alaska's 99-year mineral development rights was illegal at that time, and he himself received a large bribe from the Earl of the North Sea... Therefore, the Federal Senate met this morning and voted to unconditionally take back the Alaska mineral development rights owned by the Earl of the North Sea. to continue mining!"

White Supremacy Coalition: "The Earl of the North Sea has been punished. He and his yellow pig mates are the same. They are dirty, low, ignorant, and barbaric. They need to get out of the United States and go back to where they came from! What anti-racism Bills, these are illegal and invalid proposals, we demand that the four western states immediately expel the Chinese and confiscate the land and properties of the Chinese! Because those are illegal... Also, we believe that California Governor Leland Stanford must resign, All his actions in the past year have shown that he and Long Hao are in collusion, secretly do not know how many benefits they have received, and how many interests have been entrapped by the Federation. He is a traitor and a traitor to the Federation! We are here to call on the white people of the whole country to take up arms, Whoever can obtain the head of the Earl of the North Sea or Leland Stanford, we will reward you with fifty thousand dollars!"

The U.S. Ministry of Defense also jumped out to join in the fun, it seems that they are the 'protagonists' of this trial: "I am very sorry to hear the news of Long Hao's execution, let me clarify, this regret is not for him, but for our federal army As for the story, more than 900 outstanding naval soldiers were brutally murdered by the biggest executioner of this century, and their relatives endured unimaginable grief and grief... In addition, our military department also paid attention to Benson's death last year. He re-interpreted his behavior and believed that his blockade of the San Francisco harbor in May last year was just and well-founded, but it is a pity that the Earl of the North Sea was too cunning, and we were under pressure at the time and did not stick to our integrity...Now, The Federal Navy has officially invited Benson to return to the navy, as long as he can come back, we will not care about everything that happened before...As long as Benson is right, he will be awarded the rank of brigadier general!"

……

These "bad wolves" who are waiting to carve up Long Hao's property don't just talk but don't do it. They seem to have been prepared. On the second day after Long Hao was convicted, there were impatient troops in the four western states. The eastern edge of the looms.

Next, the business outlets of the Haw Charm Group in the eastern United States were seized almost simultaneously.

Even Theodore Roosevelt's troops hoarding their troops in Mexico, who were standing still, took action. The Freedom Stormtroopers picked up their guns and slowly advanced towards the armistice line to the west...

All of these were not good for Long Hao. On May [-]th, the federal marshals who accompanied the jury rushed to Long Hao's residence, intending to bring him back to Washington to serve his sentence.

360 years, he must have died of old age in prison!

Of course, the prison in Washington must have prepared a "big meal" for Long Hao's arrival. Whether Long Hao can survive is still unknown.

Facing the federal marshals, Long Hao didn't let him go. In fact, if he didn't want to be arrested, these marshals from the U.S. Department of Defense had nothing to do.

Both the San Francisco police and the Dragon Scale Army are protecting Long Hao, which is why Long Hao has not lived in the waiting room designated by the court.

"My lord, don't make things difficult for us!"

The lead bailiff showed a bright red verdict to Long Hao with an imperceptible sneer at the corner of his mouth.

He is a member of the Rockefeller family. This time, he did not expect to take Long Hao away in one fell swoop.

It's good that he can go, there is a prison full of big guys who prefer chrysanthemums waiting for him;

It's very good if he can't be arrested. When the family takes over Long Hao's property, it will be more logical.

"I won't go with you today."

Long Hao's face was still pale, but now there seemed to be a tinge of blood. I don't know if it was caused by excitement: "I want to appeal, and I have the right to appeal! This judgment is invalid for me!"

"appeal?"

The lead bailiff was stunned, and then shook the verdict: "Are you kidding? It's been so long since the verdict came out, why are you still appealing? Md, it's all over the statute of limitations!"

"Hahaha!"

The accompanying bailiff sneered.

This is a special trial, and the appeal must be filed within 24 hours of the trial being made, after which time the right to appeal is lost.

"Oh, it's a pity, I'm an aristocrat in England. According to regulations, I still have the right to make a special appeal!" Long Hao smiled, extremely calm, and the leader of the bailiff suddenly had the illusion that he had fallen into a trap. . (To be continued..)
