Lawyer: Start with legal retaliation against infidelity!

Protect the police?

What do you mean, Wang Qiang, who is only 1.6 meters tall and extremely thin, is protecting the police at the scene?

As Xu De finished speaking...

"Wait, defense attorney."

Rare.

In the dock, Zhang Bingxin suddenly spoke up, interrupting Xu De.

In principle, neither party should interrupt the other during their self-presentation, but he still chose to interrupt.

Zhang Bingxin felt as if he was getting old and his hearing wasn't very good anymore.

He stared blankly at Xu De, as if confirming something, and said with a slightly hesitant tone:

"You mean...the defendant's actions at the time of the incident...were to protect others? Not his daughter, but the police?"

In the dock.

Xu De paused his explanation, looked at Zhang Bingxin, and spoke without any hesitation:

"Yes and no, I haven't finished speaking yet, but it's definitely true."

"We believe that the defendant, Wang Qiang, acted in a manner consistent with 'good Samaritanism,' and therefore does not constitute 'intentional homicide' as alleged in the opposing indictment!"

Zhang Bingxin pressed further:

"So, you believe that the defendant acted heroically, protecting seven police officers, one of whom was armed?"

Xu De calmly replied again:

"Yes, Your Honor."

Zhang Bingxin: ?

At this moment, Zhang Bingxin was stunned.

Not only him, but also the other two judges on the bench, Liu Jianguo and Sun Dong, were stunned.

The same was true at the prosecutor's table. Several prosecutors exchanged glances for a long time, while Chen Wei frowned, wondering what Xu De was up to.

half an hour.

Zhang Bingxin looked at Xu De, his brows furrowing slightly, his attitude becoming noticeably more serious, and said:

"Defendant's attorney, please continue."

"it is good."

Xu De nodded, paused briefly, and then continued, following up on what he had said before:

"Your Honorable Judge and Jury Members."

"According to the information, the defendant Wang Qiang went to Lijia Village on October 2, which led to the death of Li Erniu."

"But this incident cannot be judged solely on Wang Qiang and Li Erniu!"

"Prosecutor, besides the deceased and the defendant, who else was present at the scene during the time of the incident?"

The moment those words were spoken.

A crisp hammer blow rang out.

"Bang!"

Zhang Bingxin picked up the gavel and gently tapped it on the table.

"We are now entering the investigation phase. Prosecutor, please answer our questions."

The prosecutor's stand.

"What... what's with this lawyer?" Prosecutor Wang Wei frowned, glancing sideways at Hu Guang, wondering what the other party was up to.

Acts of bravery and righteousness?

Not only were the reporters and passersby in the audience stunned, but even the staff from the intermediate procuratorate were almost caught off guard!

I've lived for over forty years.

This was the first time he had ever heard of someone blushing, taking the initiative, and then killing someone, which could be considered an act of heroism!

Does this lawyer even realize what he's saying?!

"Let's take a look first."

Prosecutor Hu Guang frowned and replied, then looked at Xu De and loudly responded:

"It is divided into six categories in total."

"Police, victims of human trafficking, defendants, victims' families, and villagers of Lijia Village."

Upon hearing this...

Xu De, sitting in the dock, nodded and continued:

"That's right, there are six types of people in total, but let's not talk about that for now."

"Then, I'd like to ask the other party again, under what circumstances would it constitute the crime of intentional homicide as stated in the indictment?"

This kind of thing might be difficult for ordinary people to explain clearly.

But none of those present were kind-hearted!

Hu Guang replied:

"According to Article 14 of the Criminal Law, which states: 'Anyone who knowingly commits an act that will result in harm to society, and who either desires or acquiesces in such a result, thereby constituting a crime, is committing an intentional crime!'"

"Including direct intent, indirect intent, and negligence."

Speaking of which...

Hu Guang then held up the document in his hand and pointed to the text on it.

"In this case, the defendant Wang Qiang, knowing full well that his actions would lead to a conflict between the two parties resulting in death or injury, still did not stop."

"This led to the death of the victim, Li Erniu."

"Therefore, the defendant Wang Qiang meets the criteria for Article 14, the crime of indirect intentional homicide!"

Intentional homicide can be categorized; it's not that you have to hate someone and kill them with a knife to constitute intentional homicide.

For example, saying something like, "I know this might kill people, but I don't care. If they die, they die. I neither want it nor try to stop it, and I accept the outcome," would also be considered intentional homicide.

Wang Qiang's actions could be considered either direct or indirect. Based on the testimonies and evidence, Hu Guang believes that the other party falls into the latter category.

"Defendant, do you have any further comments?"

Hu Guang crossed his hands on the table, raised them forward, and looked at him with a frown.

Upon hearing this...

Xu De knew when to stop. He took a deep breath and said:

"Prosecutor, regarding what you stated above..."

"Completely inconsistent with the facts!"

Is it inconsistent with the facts?

This is no joke; for a prosecutor, it would be considered a personal attack!

Hu Guang's face had just shown signs of anger.

The other party didn't give him a chance to speak.

Xu De suddenly looked at the crowd and said loudly:

"According to the prosecution, the defendant Wang Qiang became emotionally agitated due to a conflict over human trafficking, which led to hostility, and he then took the initiative to kill the victim."

"but......"

"Based on the clues, the one who struck first was clearly the deceased, Li Erniu!"

After saying that,

The crowd was momentarily stunned, then their faces showed astonishment, and a slight commotion broke out in the audience once again.

"That doesn't make sense. Although I sympathize with the defendant, according to the information from the police, the victim only briefly pulled over a member of the defendant's family member when they got on the bus, didn't they?"

"There was no excessive behavior, nor any verbal provocation..."

"Wait... I don't quite understand this lawyer."

"..."

Someone in the audience raised their hand and touched their head, looking at Xu De for a long time but still couldn't understand what he was saying.

Let alone others.

Even Hu Guang and Wang Wei, who were facing off against each other, frowned, wondering what the other side was up to.

From a logical standpoint, this lawyer is definitely not some clueless greenhorn. Therefore…

What exactly does he mean by those words? What is his purpose in saying them?!

Hu Guang stared at Xu De, as if trying to see through what the other was thinking.

Presiding Judge Zhang Bingxin was stunned for a moment before hesitantly speaking:

"Defendant's attorney, please elaborate on what you have said above."

Xu De nodded, a slight smile finally appearing on his face.

Followed by.

In the entire First Courtroom, with over four hundred people present, a series of words immediately floated into their ears.

"Please tell me about the other people present at the scene before the death occurred, namely the six types of people I asked earlier."

"Police, victims of human trafficking, families of the victims, villagers of Lijia Village..."

How should these four types of people be treated?

Xu De didn't wait for anyone to give an answer; he immediately blurted it out.

"It's a standoff!"

"This constitutes an illegal and criminal act in which over forty people, including two family members present during the trial, armed themselves and forcibly surrounded seven police officers and victims of human trafficking, severely threatening their personal safety!"

"And our defendant."

"It was under these circumstances that, in order to protect the police, our defendant took the lead in standing in front of everyone and fighting against all the lawbreakers!!!"

The First Court, the largest court in the entire Green Forest City, was eerily quiet.

More than four hundred people stared in disbelief at the impassioned lawyer in the courtroom.

"In conclusion, based on Article 2 of the 'Regulations on Rewarding and Protecting Individuals Who Act Righteously and Courageously in Lvsen City'..."

Xu Dedao:

"Our defendant was actually acting in a heroic manner!"

Prosecutor Hu Guang: ?

Presiding Judge Zhang Bingxin: ?

The audience: ?

After he finished speaking, the entire room fell silent.
