582 Humiliation
The American prison in the 21st century is very strange, and if you want to complain, it is full of slots, and the three chapters on the water are no problem.
It's the 19th century, and the crime problem in the United States is not so prominent, not to the point that there are three people in prison for every 100 people, so private prisons have not yet appeared, and kilometers of prisons are still enough.
Even so, for a country where women do not have the right to vote and where slaves still exist in some states, the word "human rights" is still a luxury, so the living conditions of prisoners can be imagined.
The United States is a country of immigrants, and basically new immigrants can't get along in their own home countries, so they come to the New World to try to get ahead.
Under this premise, the quality of new immigrants can be imagined, thieves, fraudsters, robbers, etc., etc., many new immigrants have different degrees of criminal records, as for American prisons, they are a cancer in American society, and this problem has not been solved until the 21st century.
In general, as in the case of Dobin Stewart, as long as the family pays a bail, they can be exempted from prison, but it is not excluded that accidents will occur, and it is obvious that the situation of Doberman Stewart is more exceptional.
"The NYPD demanded that we pay a $5,000 bond or else he would have to stay in jail until he appeared in court." In his office on Broadway, Alexander Stewart's lawyer, Norman Carlisle, is reporting to Alexander Stewart.
"What does this mean before the trial?" Alexander Stewart already had a bad premonition.
U.S. law has not yet introduced a "presumption of innocence," so suspects must stay in jail until a court of law determines whether a person is guilty or not.
Given the efficiency of the Tribunal, there is a lot to be done, either tomorrow or in a few months.
Now it is clear that what Norman Carlisle is referring to is certainly not the more efficient kind, which means that even if the judge acquits Dubin Stewart after the trial, then it is possible to spend several months in prison.
It is inconceivable for a prestigious family to have a family member taken away by the police, and if a family member spends months in prison, it is an irreparable blow to the reputation of the entire family, because it often means that the family has little influence in public power.
"Based on what I've heard, I'm not sure when the court will try this case." Norman Carlyle's face was ugly, and he was very eager to speak.
The arrest of Doberman Stewart by the police is tantamount to a slap in the face of the Stewart family by the New York City Police Department, but it also represents Norman Carlyle's incompetence.
Regrettably, Norman Carlisle is really powerless in this matter.
"What else, let's talk about it together." Alexander Stewart's face was swollen, and he sat in his chair, clutching his cane, and he could see that Alexander Stewart was trying to suppress his anger.
"Actually, when I went to the police station, I was reminded to keep my distance from you," Norman Carlisle smiled wryly, making his position clear with his practical actions.
New York City is big because it has the most wealth in the United States and the world.
New York City is also small, and a piece of news that happens in the morning can spread all over Manhattan in the afternoon.
The unpleasantness that happened between Li Mu and Alexander Stewart is now almost known in New York, so someone reminded Norman Carlisle and Alexander Stewart to keep their distance, obviously because they were afraid that the fire at the city gate would affect the pond fish.
Of course, this shows that almost everyone is not optimistic that the Stewart family can compete with the Steada Group.
"Shameless... The Stewarts didn't fall so easily, and I'll prove it to everyone that they're all wrong. "Alexander Stewart is in his twilight years, but he is still in his prime.
Many times, people often have the illusion that I can do it, I can, I am still young, etc., etc., for those who are successful in the usual sense, their self-confidence is stronger than that of ordinary people, because those successful experiences in the past will have a bonus effect on their self-confidence.
The same is true of Alexander Stewart, who came to the United States almost penniless, and in just a few decades, Alexander Stewart has created a myth in the retail industry that seems almost impossible to surpass, and this experience has given Alexander Stewart a mysterious confidence that he can defeat Li Mu and his steed group in the same way that he has defeated his previous opponents.
Norman Carlisle smiled wryly at Alexander Stewart's self-confidence, and it was clear that Norman Carlisle did not have as much confidence in Alexander Stewart as he did in himself.
Alexander Stewart's confidence in himself is not groundless, and after the cruel words, Alexander Stewart casually picked up the phone: "Please help me pick up 91 Brown Street." ”
91 Brown Avenue is where Councilman Joe Gibson is located.
can mix well in New York, Alexander Stewart certainly has his own reliance, such as Joe Gibson is one of Alexander Stewart's dependents.
“… I'm sorry that Mr. Gibson is not in the office today, I will record your call and report back to Mr. Gibson when he goes to work tomorrow..."The secretary's voice was very sweet, but Stress Mountain Stewart was not in the mood to appreciate it.
It's normal to be out of office, after all, the recent general election is approaching, and lawmakers are busy standing up for their supporters, and they have been very busy lately.
However, Alexander Stewart still heard a hint of abnormality, under normal circumstances, I am afraid that the secretary will not wait for tomorrow to report to Joe Gibson, so to say this now is obviously a prevarication.
Although the teacher was not good, Alexander Stewart was not discouraged, Joe Gibson refused to help and others, and Alexander Stewart would not hang himself from a tree with a crooked neck.
However, it is a pity that the next few people Alexander Stewart is looking for are either not in the office, or they are on vacation, and one is even hospitalized due to illness, which makes Alexander Stewart's expression more and more ugly.
Norman Carlisle's expression can also be seen, looking at Alexander Stewart like a trapped beast, Norman Carlisle's heart unexpectedly gave birth to a trace of desolation, this is probably the precursor of the tree falling apart, don't look at a small dispute, but it will become a turning point for the family from prosperity to decline, and become the nail in the king's horse's palm.
"Thank you, Director Bresta, for taking my call," Alexander Stewart finally got through, but the last person he wanted to get through.
"Good afternoon, Mr. Alexander, I heard that there was a little conflict between the manager of the department store and the sheriff of Broadway, I hope you won't mind because of this, you have to know, the situation has been a bit special recently, the governor and the mayor have just taken office, they attach great importance to the security of New York City, and they hope that New York City can maintain prosperity and stability, so please understand, we can only do business." Bresta had a laid-back voice that didn't sound much urgent.
"Yes, I understand, Mr. Chief, but could you please give me an answer to the question of when bail in a law and order case is as much as $5,000, is it because the council has just passed some new rules?" Alexander Stewart was well aware of Bresta and Li Mu's personal relationship, so he didn't have a polite relationship with Brestado, because politeness was useless.
Bresta has already shown his attitude with his actions, so Alexander Stewart will not intercede for this at all, it will only bring humiliation on himself and will not play any role.
But Alexander Stewart still couldn't swallow this breath, according to a law and order case, the security deposit was actually 5,000 US dollars, which is simply ridiculous and generous, when did people become so valuable...
"Oh, on the issue of the margin, if it were someone else, of course it wouldn't be so much, but for Mr. Dubin Stewart, less than $5,000 is an insult to the Stewart family, so we have to raise the bar so that it can act as a margin." Bresta's explanation, while not legitimate, is reasonable.
For ordinary people, a deposit of three or five hundred dollars is enough to bail a person out, but for members of the Stewart family, three or five hundred dollars is tantamount to an insult, when did the people of the Stewart family become so worthless?
After listening to Bresta's words, Alexander Stewart almost scolded, this is still an insult, it is simply blackmail, although the $5,000 deposit is really nothing to the Stewart family, but paying the deposit is an insult in itself to the Stewart family.
"As a representative of public power, I think you should treat the police department equally, of course you can insist, and I will also make my lawyer pay the full bond on time, but at the same time I also want you to understand that the honor of the Stewart family cannot be dishonored." Alexander Stewart wanted his words to sound more imposing, but he couldn't do it.
"Please rest assured that the NYPD is fair and impartial, and we treat everyone reasonably and legally." Bresta replied neither arrogantly nor humblely, and even his voice did not fluctuate much.
Of course it will be reasonable and legal.
Bresta can guarantee that the police department will be able to find trouble with the Stewart family reasonably and legally, and no one will find fault with it.
After hanging up the phone, Alexander Stewart leaned back in his chair and stroked his chest for a long time before waving Norman Carlisle to pay the deposit.
Although Alexander Stewart does not admit it, old is old, not only is the overall deterioration of physical functions, but also the speed of thinking cannot keep up.
After paying the bond in time, Norman Carlisle finally brought Dobin Stewart out of the police station's dark room.
Fortunately, the Broadway bureau has not had time to transfer Dubin Stewart to the New York City bureau, so Dubin Stewart still keeps his chrysanthemum intact, and even so, Dubin Stewart is still furious when he walks out of the door of the Broadway bureau.
"Why is it so late? Did you know that if you come a few minutes late, I'm going to spend the night in that damn little dark room? What's the matter, are you also slacking off because of someone's business? I must warn you to find out who is paying you..."Dubin Stewart, disrespecting decency, scolded Norman Carlyle on the street.
After spending so much time in the little dark room, Dubin Stewart finally figured out one thing, the Broadway branch was deliberate, and someone was deliberately targeting the Stewart family.
Who would be so bold as to dare to trouble the Stewart family, wouldn't they be worried about the retaliation of the Stewart family?
Remembering the verbal conflict between Alexander Stewart and Li Mu at the opening ceremony of the Horse Museum, it is also possible to find out who is looking for trouble...
Thinking of the power of the Steed, God knows how Dubin Stewart held out in the small dark room for these few hours.
A terrified Dobin Stewart needs to vent, but sadly, Dobin Stewart has chosen the wrong object in the wrong place.
Norman Carlisle was still very personable, and did not get into a confrontation with Dobin Stewart on the street, and after sending Dobin Stewart to his Phantom car, Norman Carlisle drove his BMW straight home.
BMW, Phantom...
The influence of the Steada Group is everywhere, and Norman Carlisle is worried from the bottom of his heart, but he really can't see the slightest chance of victory for the Stewart family.
After returning home, it was already the time to take charge of the lights, to say that Alexander Stewart gave Norman Carlisle a really good treatment, Norman Carlisle's family also used a home lighting system, of course, this is still a product of the Horse Group.
The tableware on the table is still stainless steel tableware produced by the Horse Group, and Norman Carlisle's wife serves Norman Carlisle dinner, and her mouth has been babbling: "Have you heard?" The store opened by the urban beauty on the corner of the street will open tomorrow, upstairs and downstairs, four facades, nearly 600 square meters, I made an appointment with Mary, tomorrow I want to go shopping, the urban beauty has launched a spring skirt, I went to the battery park to see several times, has not been willing to buy, I heard that there will be a big discount when it opens, we must not let go of this opportunity..."
Norman Carlisle, who ate this meal, was really a little unate, and unexpectedly remembered a question in his mind, since the urban beauty is on the new style, then the men's clothes should be soon...
