King County Superior Court.

Sean S. Sean P. O'Donnell walked into his office with his coffee.

He suddenly had insomnia last night and didn't know why. Caffeine catalyzes the restlessness in him.

"Judge, there are fifteen minutes left until today. Bailiff: Rianne Rubright reminded Sean. Although it was the first time since Sean took office in 2013 that he didn't arrive half an hour early, Ryan still didn't show any doubts.

Sean thanked Ryan and signaled that he understood.

Putting on a black robe and arranging his tie in front of the mirror, Sean was very satisfied. As for why he didn't fix his hair, he was bald and fearless!

Pinching the time, Sean pushed open the door to the courtroom.

"All stand up!" Ryan's voice echoed through the courtroom. "This court is now in session, under the auspices of the Honourable Sean Brown. Judge P. O'Donnell presided. ”

Sean sat down in his seat and said, "Guys, please take a seat." ”

He flipped through the materials in his hand and read: "Today's first case, Seattle Government vs Allen Mu, case number **********. Mr. Mu, you have been charged with three counts of first-degree murder, how do you plead?"

"Not guilty, honorable judge. Madrigal, dressed in a black suit, stood in front of the table and replied to Sean.

Standing next to Madrigal is a very young-looking white girl, the public defender of Madrigal.

There's no way, the current madrigal has no money and no power, and the loan just to go to medical school is enough for him to go to school for N years, after all, he is only an intern.

This girl ... It seems to be called Sandra Bell?

"Dear Judge, I'm Prosecutor Kate Littlejohn. Given the brutality of this case and Mr. Mu's financial strength, we believe that Mr. Mu is at very high risk of absconding, so on behalf of the Seattle government, I charge Allen Mu with three counts of first-degree murder without probation. Kate, who has short hair, said competently.

Before the words fell, Sander immediately retorted: "Dear judge, my client is a respected doctor and has a good reputation in the community, and has no tendency to abscond at all. ”

Sean quickly flipped through the file, and then said decisively, "I have decided that during the trial, Mr. Alan Mu will be held in the King County Jail. The trial will begin the afternoon after tomorrow. (The first step is to select a jury)"

Sander said to Madrigal while the bailiff had not yet come, "Don't say anything, don't trust the prisoners you are holding with, I will come to you this afternoon." ”

Madrigal nodded.

If you had money, you could hire a dream team like OJ Simpson.

PS: The situation this week is very complicated, and there are a lot of annoying people about internships, and today is the birthday of the author's mother, so a short chapter is added to celebrate [covering face] O(∩_∩)O

Legal dramas are really hard to write. And in English, very normal words always feel strange when translated =. =

There are two links to the back, one is the basic procedure of the trial, and the other is the link to Judge Sean [Fog].
