Lawyer: Start with legal retaliation against infidelity!
Chapter 140 Xu De's Defense
"Please wait..."
The man from the Public Security Bureau looked at Zhang Bingxin, paused for a moment, and then said:
"The lack of police manpower at the scene of the rescue, coupled with being surrounded by villagers, already put them in a passive position. To call this case, which was chaotic and ultimately ended by family members taking matters into their own hands, a classic example?" "Isn't this a public slap in the face to grassroots law enforcement and a denial of all the efforts of frontline police officers?"
The words were spoken.
Only then did everyone recall what had happened.
The case was an unexpected and sudden incident.
The police and the defendant intended to rescue the victim, but due to insufficient manpower, the scene could not be controlled, leading to a homicide. If this case is considered a classic example, then the police's problems will be immediately questioned by the public!
What happens after the questions are raised?
Questioning someone leads to denying any effort. If you didn't make any effort in this case, and it resulted in someone's death...
Should we take responsibility?
The problem is that the conflict was not caused by the police!
The other party does you a favor, and then you have to take the blame? This is clearly illogical.
Fortunately...
"Fortunately, there's a second draft."
"How is this kid's brain structured? How can he foresee things that are beyond the scope of the case?"
on.
Before his speech, Zhang Bingxin looked at the second draft Xu De had given him, breathed a sigh of relief, and subtly glanced at Xu De behind him. Then…
He paused slightly, then spoke:
"This case is precisely to address the shortcomings and clarify the direction of law enforcement at the grassroots level, not to negate the efforts made on the front lines."
"The key question is how to define the boundaries of self-defense when facing deadly violence during the rescue of trafficked individuals..."
of course.
The main shortcoming in grassroots law enforcement is the lack of personnel.
If it were the crime scene, Li Xiang would lead twenty police officers, sixty auxiliary police officers, and ten police dogs, and they would go there in a grand procession.
Will scenes resembling those at a crime scene reappear?
will not.
But the reality is cruel.
The government lacks sufficient funds to support its operations.
The police in 2003 were ridiculously poor. Compared to the economic development in 2026, the difference is like night and day. But this is 03, not 26.
Therefore, this shortcoming cannot be made up for. After all, although Li Xiang's team seems small, it actually includes the entire staff of an ordinary police station, or even the entire squadron.
In summary.
"The purpose of recognizing classic cases is to prevent grassroots units from falling into a passive position in the future, not to slap law enforcement in the face!"
Zhang Bingxin read from the script, his voice echoing in the meeting room.
The words were spoken.
The person from the Public Security Bureau opened their eyes, raised an eyebrow, and looked at the other person.
"This draft...it's quite good. When did the administrative staff in Midorimori City become so strong?"
A deputy director behind him couldn't help but murmur.
First, the unexpected nature of the event is stated; then, the unexpected event is described as a weakness; finally, a classic case is used to illustrate how to overcome the weakness...
Therefore, from this perspective, there is no fault on the part of the police.
Even though it doesn't actually exist, at least it looks good on the surface, and the grassroots police officers don't have to be punished.
The author of this article...
That's skillful!
As for the rest...
"this"
The Provincial Political and Legal Affairs Commission.
Lu Guohua suddenly paused and looked at Du Wei to the side. Du Wei showed no emotion, just like a gentle old man, but the light in his eyes clearly showed that he was thinking.
Lu Guohua paused, then looked up at Zhang Bingxin and said:
"Excuse me. ."
He symbolically asked a few questions.
Then he ended his turn.
The Department of Justice and the Prosecutor's Office questioned them carefully, but fortunately, the prepared statement covered all their questions, indicating that they had been well-prepared. A short while later...
The host enters.
"The Q&A session for Party, government, and judicial officials is now over."
The host began speaking, moving the process to the next segment.
"Next, the bar association representatives will conduct professional evaluation and questioning."
The moment the words were spoken.
Zhang Bingxin breathed a sigh of relief. He knew that the most difficult part of his defense was over. Although he didn't know why it was so easy, at least it was over.
under.
Expert area.
Upon hearing the host's voice, Feng Ji, the president of the Provincial Lawyers Association, had a glint in his eyes and made a decision.
"We cannot leave any room for maneuver."
"That lawyer is a bit strange. Houde Law Firm could be acquired and made a branch in Green Forest City."
"But the Li Family Village case cannot be made to grow with fertilizer..."
He can reap the fruits of victory in the Lijiacun case.
But in fact, as long as you keep mentioning the word "shortlisted", you can still reap the rewards, provided that you still acquire the other party.
As for the selection of classic cases... to be honest, it's inevitable that the other party might try to undermine the superior.
Thinking of this.
Feng Ji made a gesture as if he was about to raise his hand.
The host, seeing this, was just about to say something when...
"President Feng, please wait a moment. I have a few more questions to ask."
before.
Lu Guohua, from the Political and Legal Affairs Commission, who had just let Zhang Bingxin off easily, suddenly spoke up.
Everyone paused, instinctively looking towards Lu Guohua.
Lu Guohua stared expressionlessly at Feng Ji, who had raised his hand. Clearly, those words had been spoken by Lu Guohua himself.
Feng Ji paused for a moment, then nodded and put his hand down.
Lu Guohua looked away.
During this review, Feng Ji asked several questions that were somewhat "aggressive," especially regarding Green Forest City.
The questioning by the Party and government officials had just ended, and before anyone above had spoken, he was about to raise his hand to speak...
However, Lu Guohua is not a petty person.
Compared to the other party, the case was more important to him.
"Host, is the lawyer handling this case present?" Lu Guohua turned around, sat down in his chair, and asked with his hands crossed. Upon hearing this...
The host looked into the distance and, upon seeing Xu De, the man nodded.
"It has arrived."
Lu Guohua said:
"Please have the other party come up. We have a few questions for the lawyer in charge."
The host said, "Please invite the lawyer in charge of the case to come up and answer questions."
The words were spoken.
The entire conference room fell into a stunned silence.
"A lawyer...do we really need to ask a lawyer's opinion on a case like this!?"
"This has already touched upon the overall direction of death penalty trials in the entire province. If the case goes to the Supreme Court, it can influence the national atmosphere. When will we need to ask a lawyer's opinion anymore..."
"It's hard to say. After all, Attorney Bi's original intention in defending the case is still very important to the case review."
"That's true."
Whispers filled the meeting room.
The lawyer's original intention in the defense is very important to the review. For example, in a case, if the lawyer says that the case is just to get money, and that's why he pleaded not guilty for the murderer.
Therefore, this case has almost no chance of being selected as a classic.
As for whether Xu De himself is under a lot of pressure...
at this time.
Last row.
As soon as the host finished speaking, Xu De stood up, and instantly countless eyes fell on him.
Xu De walked step by step toward Pingjiang. As he passed the expert area, he glanced at Feng Ji, whose gaze was fixed on him. The two made eye contact.
Feng Ji's heart tightened, his brows furrowed, but he remained outwardly calm.
As for the rest...
As Xu De stood before the speaker, the crowd's gazes grew increasingly surprised.
Young...too young!
That's right, it's youth. In this conference room where everyone is at least 35, Xu De looks no different from their son! People like Du Wei, if they were born earlier...
Xu De might be about the same age as their grandson!
"Attorney in charge of this case, how old are you?"
Lu Guohua looked at Xu De and asked in surprise.
Last time, Xu De was sitting too far back, so he didn't get a clear look at him. But now that he's standing right in front of him... he realizes how young he really is!
"25 years old."
Xu De replied calmly, his voice carried through the microphone to everyone's ears.
25岁?
A 25-year-old defended a murderer until he was acquitted!
Those in the audience twitched upon hearing this.
What were they doing at 25? Probably still thinking about how to get their master to teach them a few tricks, but the other person's 25 years old... seems to be the age that would make their former master beg them to teach them a few tricks.
Lu Guohua put his mind at ease.
He looked at Xu De, pondered for a long time, and suddenly asked:
"Attorney Xu, I must admit that this case was handled very well, it was very satisfying, it conformed to public order and good morals, and it upheld social ethics." "Public opinion has calmed down and the case has been resolved satisfactorily."
"I've seen the data from the Green Forest City Justice Department. The entire city's level of official approval has reached an alarming, unprecedented level," Lu Guohua said slowly.
As soon as he spoke, he recited all the data about Green Forest City.
It is clear that the other party had been paying close attention to this case before the review began.
This fully demonstrates the importance attached to the Lijiacun case!
But then again...
The sooner the other party looks at it, the more tricky questions they'll have swirling in their mind!
as predicted.
"but!"
In a daze.
Lu Guohua from the Political and Legal Affairs Commission suddenly changed the subject. His eyes sharpened, and his gaze swept across the air before landing on Xu De, who was speaking.
Let's make an assumption first.
"If the case becomes a classic example, it can guide the direction of the judiciary."
"Won't this trend of favoring private retaliation weaken public trust in the role of public security organs in handling disputes?" "Won't it undermine the core position of public power in resolving conflicts?"
The words were spoken.
Everyone present paused, then their brows furrowed.
That's right.
If the Lijiacun case is selected, it will begin to guide this trend.
This could very likely lead to a decline in the authority and value of public power!
First, there is a possibility of increased private retaliation.
When others see that murder is not a crime and is considered legitimate self-defense, some cases that should have been mediated by the police and would not have resulted in any trouble are very likely to be resolved privately.
An increase in cases will inevitably lead to a decline in the authority of the law and public power.
A decline in reverence will almost certainly lead to social chaos.
for example.
If you can pay a bribe and avoid punishment after committing murder, do you think anyone will still trust the police?
The same reason.
After the Li Family Village case is selected, the judiciary will definitely be slightly more lenient. Although it is only a little bit, if this little bit is magnified to the whole of Dongguo, it will inevitably cause a lot of trouble!
so..
Have you considered this issue?
Lu Guohua suddenly asked, his brows furrowing as he looked at Xu De.
The words were spoken.
The crowd stopped whispering and looked up at Xu De, who was standing in front of the speaker.
Upon hearing this...
Xu De paused for a moment, then spoke:
"The reason why people resort to private means to resolve issues is not fundamentally due to the severity of the law."
"The problem lies in the distrust of vague and ambiguous judgment results!"
"By establishing standards through exemplary cases, we can actually guide the public to distinguish boundaries and reasonably seek assistance from public authorities!"
Simply put, it boils down to the word "trust".
When the public loses faith in the law, the authority of official institutions is undermined.
So why would anyone not believe it?
Because the judgment is vague and unclear, it is uncertain whether the law will still adhere to fairness and impartiality.
for example.
In 2003, most people heard the word "rapist," and people at that time were extremely angry about it!
They would think, "This person is such a beast, he deserves to be executed by slow slicing, to be skinned alive. The victim is also pitiful, the psychological trauma will haunt him for life." But what about later generations?
When people hear the word "rapist" in later generations, this is not the first thing that comes to mind.
Instead, they might think, "Wow, this person is so unlucky," or "So pitiful."
Why is this happening?
The reason is that the judgment is ambiguous, with various factors intertwined, making it difficult to imagine what the verdict will actually be.
Therefore, the core of Lu Guohua's problem is... …..
【letter!】
"The foundation of faith is setting standards."
"Act according to standards to ensure that the judgment is no longer ambiguous."
"In this way, far from weakening the authority of the judiciary and the trust of the residents, it will present the exact opposite picture!"
"Because there are standards, residents clearly understand the outcome of the matter, so they are more willing to trust the judiciary."
During the speech.
Xu De did not read the manuscript, or rather, there was no mention of Lu Guohua in the manuscript at all.
However, he continued to talk at length, with very little time to even think.
"And to select classic cases."
"That's the standard we've set!"
Classic cases serve as guidance, trends, and standards!
Once the standards are established, each city can use a few cases as examples to implement them, and residents will naturally be more willing to believe them.
And this explanation...
under.
A murmur of discussion immediately arose, and the scene became agitated.
Feng Ji, standing in the expert section, looked rather grim; the other party's remarks were clearly better than the prepared script.
If the opponent actually gets this, forget about Blue Flower reaping the victory... the opponent might just turn around and attack Blue Flower directly!
Feng Ji fell into deep thought.
"Prosecutor Huang, do you know what this reminds me of?"
In the back row, Lin Yue looked at Xu De, her blood boiling.
Huang Shi paused, but before he could answer, Lin Yue spoke up:
"Shang Yang moved the wood!"
Four words, and Huang Shi instantly understood.
When it comes to famous figures related to law, the name "Shang Yang" is indispensable.
In the early stages of the reform, the other side accurately grasped that the cornerstone of the law is "trust"!
How did he do it?
He told others that he would reward them with 10 gold coins for carrying a piece of wood to the city gate by hand. When no one did it, he increased the reward, and eventually someone was willing to try. When the person actually carried it to the city gate, Shang Yang immediately rewarded them and fulfilled his promise.
Thus, the residents' acceptance of the government's laws was solidified, which in turn paved the way for Shang Yang's subsequent reforms.
However, what Huang Shi was more concerned about was...
"To deliver a speech without a script and still achieve this level of quality..."
Speaking without notes is a plus.
This is a place that everyone agrees on.
But why do other people still read from a script? Is it because they don't want to?
No.
It's because we can't do it!
Huangshi murmured:
"Where exactly are the limits of Attorney Xu's legal reasoning and on-the-spot skills?"
before.
"Do you believe it..."
"Political and legal officials," Du Wei murmured to himself.
