Chapter 241: On the eve of the trial

This time the Flame Court is in session, and it has the flavor of a formal courtroom. First of all, there are defense lawyers and prosecutors. The defense lawyers are Cao Yun and Ling Hulan. The prosecutor is Sima Luo and newcomer Wang Lei. The reason why Sima Luo agreed to Yue Sanchi's proposal to intervene in this case was because Xiaoyu was blatantly lying. The law really can't do anything about Xiaoyu, but it doesn't rely on the law to argue whether there is guilt and innocence in the court of flames.

The process of Sima Luo's intervention is quite absurd, he can't take the initiative to intervene, he must be hijacked. The Flame Court didn't seem to have any intention of hijacking him. In the end, Sima Luo was very helpless to ask Cao Yun for help, Cao Yun was very crazy, you let me join forces with the Flame Court to kidnap you? After weighing it, Cao Yun sent a very neutral email to waiter No. 1.

Content: Someone wants to be a prosecutor, but I can't say who it is, if you can't guess it's a pig.

A few hours later, Sima Luo was successfully kidnapped. The kidnapping process is also ridiculous. The gangster called: I am Huomiao Express, please go to the parking lot of your residence downstairs to get the express. Sima Luo was speechless, but he could only cooperate to go to the parking lot on the first floor of the residence, and then the gangster took out a fruit knife at a distance of four meters, Sima Luo was very scared and carried the briefcase, opened the car door by himself, and got into the back seat of the car.

Three hours later, Ling Hulan and Cao Yun were made an appointment by courier, and they got into the car together with the information and fear.

......

Cao Yun woke up and found himself in a suite, an unusual suite. Cao Yun walked out of the door, and it was a relatively narrow corridor. At the end of the corridor, you will see a blue sea.

Ship, a medium-sized cruise ship, the Sea Lion medium-sized cruise ship, hangs on the 'state-owned enterprise' of Panama.

A foreigner waitress stood at the exit and introduced to Cao Yun: "This ship has a total of 130 cabins, and under normal circumstances, the ratio of passengers to crew is three:two. At present, the ship has a crew of 180 people, and the number of passengers is less than 50. ”

"What the hell?" Cao Yun wondered as he looked at the waiter.

This cruise ship turned out to be a properly registered cruise ship, a small luxury cruise ship that was launched three years ago at a cost of up to $150 million. According to the waiter, the company's headquarters in India Blaze Company leased the Sea Lion for ten days, and the ship is currently traveling on the high seas.

It took a few hours for Cao Yun to figure out that the Flame Court had appeared in public. However, those who appear should be stand-ins. The meaning of a ship registered in a small country such as Panama is actually obvious. The principle of the high seas, in which cases occur on board a ship are investigated and investigated by the State in which the ship is registered.

The Blaze Company and the Boat Company made an agreement that they chartered the ship. The boat staff didn't care about anything, didn't ask anything, and everyone had a big red envelope after the event. Except for a few attendants who are designated to explain to the passengers, no one will have any conversation or communication with the passengers.

Meeting rooms are on the sixth floor, and passenger event spaces are on the fifth to sixth floors. The Blaze Company explained to the shipping company that it held high-level confidential business meetings within its company, and that they used their own security guards on the fifth or sixth floor. Although both the shipping company and the Flame Court knew what was going on, they still had to talk about it.

There are many rules on the high seas, one of which is that if a ship is on the line of two or more state-owned enterprises, or if there is no state-owned enterprise, any country has the right and obligation to arrest the vessel. If only one country's state-owned enterprise is suspended, its right of way is not obstructed by any other than the country to which the state-owned enterprise belongs.

The question arises: Suppose a warship thinks that a certain ship on the high seas has committed illegal acts, can it board the ship and arrest people? There are several situations in which the right to board is lawful, and the first is that there is a suspicion of piracy. Second, there is suspicion of human trafficking. Third, illegal broadcasting. Fourth, it is the same state-owned enterprise as the warship. Fifth, two or no state-owned enterprises.

Suppose a wanted criminal is on a ship on the high seas, and a warship boards and detains people, if the above conditions are not met, this is a violation of the convention and the like, and the warship must not only release the people, but also bear all the losses. The regular practice is to inform the country to which the ship belongs and apply for boarding, but usually the other party will not agree to arrest the person, which is a matter of national dignity. Normally, the country to which the vessel belongs () will contact the captain of the vessel, and the specific strength depends on the specific country and the situation.

Or use the right of hot pursuit. Let's not talk about the fact that the right to follow is very complicated. Sooner or later, ships will have to leave the high seas, and once they enter the waters of a certain country, they can contact a certain country and ask a certain country to assist in searching for ships and arresting people, and then extradite them back to China.

Suppose that the people of country A kill the ship of country C in the high seas area, then the situation is super invincible and complicated. Theoretically, flag states C, A and B all have jurisdiction. At the same time, it depends on how the criminal laws of the three countries are regulated. Many countries stipulate that crimes on the high seas are not subject to jurisdiction, and if all three countries do not have jurisdiction, then A is not guilty. If all three countries have jurisdiction and all act in accordance with their own criminal laws, all three countries can pronounce a sentence on A, but it is difficult to say who A should belong to.

If it is more complicated, for example, there is a national rule that the death penalty is not extradited, and before he wants to hand over A, he must also fully review the case, and require countries C and B not to impose capital punishment on A. In the end, you have to care, whether to give A or B.

In fact, no one likes to worry about this, because it's too complicated to get it done. The usual practice is for State C to detain the suspect, investigate the case, extradite the suspect and pass on the information to State B. However, if country C does not have an extradition treaty with country B......

All in all, high seas cruises are a very good option for the Flame Court. There is only one drawback, it takes money, a lot of money. According to Cao Yun's understanding, the ship has a total of 130 rooms. Normally, a person gets on the boat for ten days, and the ticket is about 20,000 yuan. Cao Yun estimated that the cost of the trial was between 500 and 7 million.

The fifth and sixth floors are similar in configuration to the Flame Courtroom, with armed guards, though they don't appear to be carrying firearms. Of course, at their level, they don't need guns to deal with a group of weak chickens. The sixth floor is dedicated to luxury suites, meeting rooms and restaurants, and the fifth floor is all junior suites with small balconies.

After familiarizing themselves with their location, the passengers were 'invited' back to their rooms by the 'security guards'. The room was quite nice and could even be described as luxurious. Ordinary cruise ships are usually standard rooms and are relatively small in size. The Sea Lion cruise ship is all suites, with an area of more than 80 square meters, which is quite luxurious in comparison. It also proves that the Flame Court is not bad for money, otherwise there is no need to charter such a luxurious cruise ship, and the rent of ordinary cruise ships will definitely be cheaper.

The ship did not move, but docked in the middle of the sea, and there was an isolated island three nautical miles to the southeast. This was the venue for the first chamber of the Flame Court.

The computer in the room has no external network, all are intranet, and the computer publishes information display. The trial will not officially begin until tomorrow afternoon, because the Vietnamese and Thai witnesses have not yet arrived. The Flame Court invites everyone to order food at will, and if you have special needs, you can also call the phone, and all expenses will be borne by the Flame Court. In addition, the Flame Court gave each suite 300,000 chips, which could be connected to the ship's gambling 'factory' through the TV to place bets in real time, and all proceeds belonged to individuals. If you don't want to gamble, you can apply for 8.5% off the gambling factory to exchange chips.

Either there is a saying that the life of a rich person is unimaginable. Cao Yun thinks that if he is super rich, he will definitely want to make some moths. But think about it, do it. On the other hand, Cao Yun now thinks that it is quite interesting for the Flame Court to play like this.

Applying by phone, Ling Hulan transferred from her room to Cao Yun's suite. This time, Ling Hulan did not seduce Cao Yun, and Ling Hulan, who entered the working state, was a sophisticated machine. At this time, they were busy because they were on the ship and they obtained the information provided by the Flame Court.

There are two cases in this case, the first case is the Vietnam mudslide case. In the second case, Fan's wife was kidnapped and Fan Shiyi was killed. The defendants are Xie Lu and Bassoon, all of whom are absent. The Flame Court said it had contacted police in Thailand and Dongtang, and that they would not allow Bassoon and Xie Lu to appear in court via video.

They were also not required to appear in court in this case, and Basson, who was under the control of the Thai police, denied all charges. Bassoon couldn't explain his suspicion, but the police didn't have a direct death certificate to take down Bassoon. For example, if someone in the villa browses the murder email, it can only prove that Bassoon is very suspicious, but it cannot be proved that Bassoon browsed it.

This house is only lived in by A, so the vase must have been broken by A. Many people will think so, but it is untenable in legal theory, and it can only be regarded as circumstantial evidence, not death evidence.

Xie Lu of Dongtang was more relaxed, and the prosecutor did not charge him with anything. Xie Lu answered a question from the police and explained about the mudslide case in Vietnam, when he and Bassoon cooperated to invest in a road project, and Bassoon's people were in charge of the substantive work. The reason why Xie Lu became a shareholder was because he had a good relationship with some Vietnamese officials. Xie Lu not only did not know about the mudslide case, but he did not even know that there had been a mudslide.

Bassoon said he had received a call from Mr. Jinlei, the person in charge of the project, that a mudslide had washed away several houses and that villagers in the neighborhood said that only one elderly lady had lived. A few days later, Bassoon received another call saying that there were four dead, a woman and two children.

Bassoon said that he was superstitious, and this happened in this place, and Bassoon modified the route of the project at a cost of 20 million. Bassoon concluded by saying that he was aware of the mudslide, but that he did not know whether it was man-made or a natural disaster. He was solely responsible for this kind of thing. Jin Lei's position is equivalent to that of a general manager of a subsidiary of the Basson Group.

"Lawyer Lan, the situation is very serious. ”

Ling Hulan: "Well, there are a lot of obvious selective testimonies here, is it from the Flame Court? or from your old good looks?"

"The camera, it's almost certain that it's him. ”

Selective testimony is true testimony. Just like the TV station broadcasts the news, the TV station receives two news, the first is that the old man has no one to help, and finally he is sent to the hospital for rescue and dies. The second is that the old man fell, and the XX female college student helped him up. The TV station will choose the second one and not broadcast the first one. Following the second news article, the old man said that it was a female college student who pushed him down. OK, this one is not broadcast.

Can you say that this news is fake news? Of course not, it is real news. Is the testimony a real testimony? That's right.

There is a case in the TV series where an old lady was ejected from the baseball field for a long time of foul language, and the male protagonist became her agent. In the courtroom, the male protagonist presented dozens of testimonies, both spectators and players, who thought that without the old lady's foul shouting, the game would have become boring.

When these testimonies are spoken, the male protagonist is very imposing and calms the defendant's lawyer and the judge.

This is the testimony of choice, and the reverse is understood, a stadium of 20,000 people, and there are only a few dozen supporters of the male protagonist. Of course, because the opponent's lawyer was too weak, he was knocked out without saying anything.

There were also joint letters from villagers, and hundreds of people wrote a joint letter to a murderer, asking for a lighter sentence. Is there only a few hundred people in the village? If there are only a few hundred people in the village, the joint letter has a very high gold content. If there are thousands or even tens of thousands of people in the village, this joint letter is worthless.

There are also selective surveys, through tax records, to collect surveys from high-income people, do you have a high disposable income, is the survey fake? No, it's true. An investigation report of objective facts.

In practice, whether it is a joint letter, or a selective report or investigation, it is easy to fool many people. Not everyone understands in reverse, and in most cases, it is negative energy.

Cao Yun asked, "Do you want to do it?"

Ling Hulan said: "In principle, we are Xiaoyu's lawyers, and we have no client relationship with Xie Lu. However, you know the actual situation. ”

Cao Yun said: "That means that we have to fire at the beginning. ”

Ling Hulan didn't answer, looking at the computer: "There are two lawyers hired by Bassoon to defend him, do you think they are allies or enemy forces?"

Cao Yun sighed: "If you give us full preparation, they will definitely be allies." In this situation, they want to make alliances, but they can't trust us. We want to make alliances, but we can't trust them. The conclusion: enemy forces. ”

Ling Hulan said: "Witnesses, testimonies, lawyers, prosecutors...... It seems that all are enemy troops. ”

Cao Yun said: "The worst thing is that we don't have reinforcements. However, I have a question, Bassoon also has children, why did it be Xie Yu who died, not Bassoon's children or Bassoon himself?"

Ling Hulan picked up the internal phone: "Hello, I'm Ling Hulan, I need to contact the outside world...... The purpose is to corroborate the information and evidence provided by the court. Ok thanks. ”

Ling Hulan hung up the phone: "The Flame Court is very talkative. ”

......

At two o'clock in the afternoon of the next day, the Flame Court officially opened its hearing on the Vietnamese mudslide case and many cases that have spawned it.

Since the courtroom has been converted from a conference room, it is unlikely that it will be exactly what everyone wants. The number of judges increased from three to five, and without the protection of light and shadow, it can be seen that they are not very old, about thirty to thirty-five. He wears a wide black robe, his eyes are covered with a cloth, and his hands are on the table.

The eyes are covered with strips of cloth, from the ancient Greek goddess of justice, Judithia. The gods are at strife, and the system of gods is about to collapse. Juditia referees blindfolded. Because she was blindfolded, she would not dislike or like the disputing person because of his appearance, she would not know who the disputing person was, and she would not need to fear his power. In addition to being blindfolded, she also holds a sword and a scale.

Jutitia is not in charge of the investigation, not in charge of accusations, she is only in charge of adjudication. It can be said that it was a kind of expectation in the hearts of the people during the Renaissance. It is said that her legend influenced the separation of powers of ignorance, stupidity, ignorance, inferiority, and backwardness. (For the sake of the child's fruit money, I applied to join the Wumao Water Army, and Simao also did it.) )
