Chapter 396 "General Law"

The days of the lockdown were boring, and in addition to eating and sleeping every day, John's biggest entertainment was to open the window and tease the passing servants, but fortunately, the days were not too long, otherwise it would really suffocate people.

At noon on the third day of the grounding, just after lunch, John was about to take a nap and be in good spirits to tease the agent under the window in the evening, but before he could get to bed, he heard a rumbling engine outside the window.

Human curiosity is very heavy, and people who are bored are even more curious, and when he heard the voice, John quickly put his head out of the window, and saw a lot of cars coming from the manor, and before he could figure out what was happening, the door was opened by Archie.

"JK! Patriarch told you to hurry up and wash up, and then go to the parliament building for a meeting. ”

"What's going on, why are so many people coming to the manor all at once?"

"The people from the Rockefeller camp, and the patriarchs of the other four families on our side, as well as members of the Department of Justice, government officials. ”

"Okay, I see. John knew that these people must have come to Morgan Manor to discuss the reform of the judicial system, so he hurried to the bathroom to wash up, and then changed into a neat suit to celebrate the end of his lockdown.

The sky was blue, the flowers were fragrant, John was in a good mood, and after smelling the air with the smell of freedom all the way, John finally came to the conference room.

There was a crowd of people in the conference room, and John looked out and saw people from the Rockefeller camp, as well as senior federal officials, members of the Justice Department, and the chief justice who had met him that day.

Looking around the week, John found that all the powerful people in the country were in place, and this was simply the best chance to destroy the US imperialists, and now with just one missile, the government, the army, and the community would all be paralyzed, and it would not be possible to reorganize in a short time.

However, it is a pity that John waited for a long time and did not hear the air raid siren on the manor, so it seems that the climate of the American imperialism is not over.

After looking around, John greeted all the way in the direction of old Morgan, and when he reached Old Morgan's side, he sat down quietly, thinking about the pattern of the world after the fall of American imperialism if there was really a missile flying here.

Whether Britain will regain the throne, or whether Russia will dominate the world, whether Japan in the east will resurrect and put the ***** circle on the agenda again, whether Italy will pit Germany once, and whether France can ...... again.

After ten minutes, after John had thought about most of the countries, the door to the conference room was finally closed, and everyone was quiet, and John woke up from his lust.

The meeting officially began, and Morgan Sr. was the first to speak as the convener.

"Everyone knows what we're here for today, so I won't say more, Mr. David!" said Morgan Sr. with an invitation to Rockefeller Sr.

Old Rockefeller smiled slightly and didn't refuse, cleared his throat and said: "We haven't been together for a long time, usually the most we can call and contact, this party is a reunion after a long absence, so we should thank JK, if it weren't for him, we don't know how long it would be before we could sit together like now." ”

"Hehe....... ”

As soon as the old Rockefeller finished speaking, some laughter rang out in the conference room, and the originally serious atmosphere suddenly became relaxed.

Old Rockefeller pressed his hand, everyone stopped laughing, and he continued: "No matter what the outcome of today's meeting is, whether an agreement is reached or not, it doesn't really matter, what matters is that we are willing to sit down and communicate and talk, and this is a kind of success." ”

As soon as the old Rockefeller's voice fell, there was a round of applause in the conference room, and John felt that the old Rockefeller was very reliable and looked very pleasing to the eye, at least much more reliable and pleasing to the eye than the old Morgan next to him.

"It's your turn, tell everyone about reforming the judicial system!" Old Rockefeller finished speaking, and old Morgan looked at John and instructed, he was a theater watcher today, so he only brought his ears and eyes, not his mouth, and left everything to John to handle.

John nodded, cleared his throat, and from the moment he entered the conference room and saw these people, he knew that he was going to fight the crowd today, but old Morgan was not reliable at all, and he didn't give him advance notice so that he could be prepared, at least in his heart, but now he didn't have any preparation, only to play on the spot.

"I think the words of Mr. Rockefeller Sr. are very correct, as long as you are willing to communicate and dialogue, it is a kind of success. Therefore, today's meeting is not to harm the interests of some people, nor is it to change anyone's life, but to make our cooperation more scientific, more reasonable, and longer-lasting. ”

Everyone nodded involuntarily when they heard John's words, only Charles was the only one holding his mouth, he felt that John was a-stirring stick, stirring around every day, and he was not at ease at all. And he is very glad that John is going to be a director to make movies, so that at least John has no energy to do things for more than half a year when he makes movies, otherwise he won't do things every day 365 days a year!

John then talked about how to reform the judicial system, which was basically what he said to Morgan Sr. that day, and after some discussion, everyone finally agreed to his plan for reforming the judicial system.

Of course, this is only a rough plan, and the specific rules will be formulated by the Ministry of Justice before they are implemented.

And the reason why all parties will agree on this is actually very simple, because reforming the judiciary is beneficial to everyone.

For the Ministry of Justice and the federal courts, although the plan wants to abolish the federal courts in the states, they have been given the judicial management rights of the states and participated in the judicial operations of the states, which was unisceptible before.

And for the state governments, it doesn't matter if they hand over the management power, the most important personnel power is still in their hands, and one day everyone will not cooperate, and the state government will take back the judicial power is a matter of one sentence, so it doesn't matter if it is handed over, at least the state's finances will be reduced by half in the judicial area, and everyone's belt will not have to be so tight in the future.

"Now that I've said that I've talked about reforming the judicial system, I'll make a small proposal. John is going to talk about a thing that has come to mind in the past few days for everyone to discuss: "I think that in order to reduce the cost of justice, we can establish a set of "general laws" to include vicious crimes, such as murder, robbery, rape, drug trafficking...... And so on, and then the states discuss together what kind of punishment should be taken for these crimes, and then all the states can take the same punishment for such crimes in the future, which can not only improve the efficiency of the judiciary, but also unify the cost of crime, I believe that once there is a "General Law", then criminals will no longer pick a place to do crimes, and our court staff can also deal with these cases more quickly. Of course, this is just a small proposal of mine, and it is up to you to agree or not. ”

"Agreed, agreed....... As soon as John's words fell, the federal justice stood up excitedly and made a statement. The reason why he is so excited is because the unity of the regime and judicial power is the real unity of a country, but the United States is a factor of the alliance between the North and the South, the political power and judicial power are not unified, and the laws of various places are implemented, which makes many people feel very pity but very helpless, but now I hear that John wants to build the "General Law", although it only includes vicious crimes, but this is also a kind of progress, as long as there is progress, one day the unity of judicial power will always be realized.

After the members of the judiciary expressed their strong support, the old Morgan and the old Rockefeller finally nodded and agreed, because the more unity of the two sides, the stronger the tightness of the alliance, and the two sides will naturally not refuse on the premise of not harming their respective interests, and both sides know that if the legal punishment is different in the next severe crackdown on all kinds of crimes, it will cause criminals to pick a place to commit crimes, such as drug trafficking 1000 grams in Los Angeles to be sentenced to death, but in New York to a maximum of 10 years, then most drug dealers will definitely choose to go to New York to sell drugs first, even if they are caught squatting for a few years, they will continue to sell after coming out, but in Los Angeles it is different, it will be fatal。

So in the end, it will cause drug dealers to run to one place, and this is something that everyone does not want to see, and no one wants to have a gang of drug dealers in the place under their jurisdiction.
