Chapter 23: Lucas (4)

"So, Mr. Johnny, you witnessed the whole crash."

"Yes"

"So, can you give us a detailed description of the situation?"

"Haode was coming quickly from the direction of Long Island. Driving side-by-side like this, another car overtook the three cars and drove in front of them, and as they reached the Jiā fork on the Queen's Road in Manhattan and Brooklyn, the car caught in the middle suddenly shifted gears. ”

"And then? Mr. Johnny, tell everybody, and then what happened? ”

Then, when the car that was caught in the middle of the car shifted gears, a car that was catching up from behind was hit in the front of the car, and then the car that was catching up behind overturned, and the car that was originally driving on the left was also hit to the side because of the change of direction of the car. At the same time that the car that had shifted the steering overtook the past, the two interview cars that were parallel to the car rolled over at the same time."

"Mr. Johnny, you said there were two interview cars running side by side? You knew about it right then? ”

"No~ I don't know. I didn't pay much attention at the time, I just knew that the car was printed with text and then read the news, and I learned that the two vehicles that first rolled over were the National Enquirer's interview car and the New York Post's interview vehicle. ”

"Mr. Johnny, please take a look at these two pictures and ask if these are the two interview cars you are talking about."

"Yes. There's nothing wrong with that."

"So this picture"

"This is the interview car that was hit in the front of the car"

"What about the next one?"

"This is the car that had the shift steering"

"Xiexie, you Mr. Johnny, Mr. Judge, my question is finished," said Tom. Snedon was very elegant to the ** officer Lawrence. Bradford gestured, then sat back in his seat.

This is the first trial of the Queen's Road serial car accident case, and it is the first time that the suspect Jerry Murphy has been heard in court. It has been two months since Rothschel was held at Lake Island Prison. In all the bad spearheads are pointed at our protagonist Jerry. At the time of Rothscher, the Japanese lawyer team headed by Shigenobu May and Jerry's defense lawyer, Emily Brown. Stanley believes that out-of-court settlement is the wiser option. Confession of sin was not possible at the time. However, because the Queen's Road series of car accidents have involved human lives and have been escalated from a civil case to a criminal case, it is no longer possible to negotiate a settlement out of court.

"I'm sorry, the cause of the incident is not me, I am just an uncertain factor in the incident, so I have to take all the responsibility, and pay a lot of money and mental damage for it, I'm sorry, I can't do it, I won't let the mad dog Tom. Snedden got his wish, and he wouldn't let those paparazzi get his wish, and I've put up with these guys for too long, and this time I didn't want to compromise Since they want to play, I'll play with them to the end" Jerry's words revealed that the uncompromising made Shigenobu May helpless.

"How much do you think the lives of 8 American citizens are worth, and what do you think the 43 people who were injured in this Queen's Road crash will face their losses? Your so-called settlement offer is just a joke, Emily. Sister Stanny, go back and tell that iǎzi from the East, let him wash his ass, and wait to go to the prison bar, there will be a lot of friendly people who will like the "mad dog Tom" of a guy like him. Snedon's words, let Emily. Stanny smashed his offer directly in the face, and received a complaint from Mad Dog as a result. In this regard, Emily. Stany himself said that such mad dogs should be dragged directly into animal shelters by chengguan, shot on the spot, buried on the spot, and disinfected to prevent the emergence of rabies variants

Skadden said that at this point, Emily. Sister Stanny has the freedom to speak freely, and as for who the mad dog is in her words, they don't know Tom at all. They don't mind if Mr. Snyden thinks he's a mad dog that bites people everywhere. Sneddon's personal freedom, they have no right to interfere with other slander, slander, and blatant assaults. Mr. Snedden, we at Skadden don't mind engaging in a civil lawsuit with you, if you have more time.

Tom. Although Snedden is stupid, he still knows the truth that the strong dragon does not suppress the head snake. What's more, he now needs to concentrate on dealing with the protagonist of the Queen's Road series of car accidents, and he simply doesn't have much effort to deal with the others. Zuihou, Emily. Stanny slammed Tom with the folder. Snedon, the new prosecutor who came to Santa Barbara, was injured in the face of the incident in which Emily Brown. After the symbolic repayment of the dollar by Sister Stanny iǎ, it was gone. ,

In Jerry's words, this mad dog can only be described in one word, and that is cheap.

Lawrence. Bradford lifted his glasses and gestured with his eyes to Emily, who was sitting on the other side. Stanny began her inquiry.

"~Mr. Johnny, I would like to ask you, are you sure that you have not missed a single key point about what happened at the scene of the car accident?"

"Yes, Sister Stanny, I'm sure."

"For example, did the two interview cars that later overturn have a tendency to squeeze or collide with the car in the middle, which is my client's Land Rover? Or did the reporter in the car act against my client in violation of the laws and regulations? For example......

"Objection~ Mr. Judge, the defender is guiding the prosecution witnesses." Tom. As soon as Snayden heard about Emily. Stanny's questioning immediately stood up against it.

Emily. Stanny didn't even bother with Tom. Instead, Snayden shifted a question and continued her cross-examination.

"Excuse me, Mr. Johnny, what time was it when you witnessed this happening?"

"8 a.m."

"Weishenme, so sure it's 8 o'clock in the morning?"

"Because at that time, the clock in the Chanel boutique on the Queen's Road struck exactly eight times."

"I can understand that you witnessed the whole process of the car accident at 8 o'clock in the morning."

"So to speak."

"Your Excellency, members of the jury, from the time the Queen's Road series of car accidents occurred to the time of stopping, a total of half an iǎ hour before and after 8 a.m. to 8:15 a.m., which belongs to the second half of the car accident incident, that is, the prosecution witness Joey. Mr. Johnny only witnessed the second half of the crash, and he did not witness the full course of the crash......"

"I object to this being the unfounded speculation of the defenders."

"Your Honor, Your Excellency, the occurrence of a car accident should not only start with the vehicle rollover, but should also start with the cause of the entire car accident. The cause of the crash was that the National Enquirer's and New York Post's interview cars chased my client at high speed. The reason why my client made the driver change gears was to get rid of the control of these two interview cars. Below, I will summon the person who witnessed the whole incident, Avril Lavigne. Lavini iǎ sister. ”

"I'm against Your Excellency, Avril. Sister Lavini is only 10 years old, and according to federal law, children aged 10 and under are not allowed to appear in court as witnesses. And Avril. Sister Lavigne was too close to the defendant in this case, and she was able to come to New York to study because she was personally sponsored by the defendant in this case. Lavini's testimony is likely to be biased

"Your Excellency. Avril Lavigne. Sister Lavini is one of the parties to this series of car accidents, and at the time of the car accident, she and my client were in the same car, and she is very aware of the whole process of the incident, so it can be said that she is also one of the victims of this case. Although Sister Lavini is only 10 years old, her mental development is very good, and she has a strong personal opinion in distinguishing between right and wrong. It is entirely possible that she will serve as a witness for the defence in this case. If I reject Lavini because I am too close to my client, do I also have the right to oppose Tom. What about Mr. Snaydon's actions in pushing injured journalists onto the witness stand? ”

Lawrence. Bradford glanced at Emily, who was standing in front of him with her head held high. Stanley, "Objections are invalid. The defender can subpoena Avril Lavigne. Lavini iǎ sister, but given that Lavini iǎ sister is only 10 years old, this seat will reserve a personal opinion on Lavini iǎ sister's testimony. ”

"Your Excellency, the prosecution requests an adjournment." I thought I could dismiss Emily directly. Stanley will Avril. Lavigne pushed Tom on the witness stand to ask for help. Snayden could only use the adjournment as a lifesaver, and all he needed to do now was wait, wait for the arrival of the bandaged reporters and the driver who had turned into tainted witnesses.

It was the first time that Avril had gone to the criminal courtroom, and although it was as a witness, the atmosphere in the criminal courtroom still made her nervous. One side of the auditorium was completely in favor of Jerry. Rothschel's, which includes most of his fans, some of his colleagues, some of his relatives and friends, and some maverick journalists, such as American's Barry. Keelin Baker, and on the other side, is entirely Jerry. Rothschel's opponents, the noisy media people, and the victims of the Queen's Mile car accident, the journalists who still dressed up in bandages,

When Avril. Lavigny pushed away the courtroom and walked in, accompanied by court staff, the group of opposition and supporters turned their heads. A！ ~！
