Chapter 173: Time Swap
The judge nodded after listening to Sima Qiqi's statement, and then Ding Shan stood up and said: "Your Excellency, I object to the defense's previous statement on the gazebo, and the previous statement of the defense lawyer Sima Qiqi seems to be very convincing, but I want to remind the judge here that the crime occurred at night, and there were no street lights near the gazebo, and we have all been to the city park, and at night there are few people in the city park, so it is normal for the four defendants to violate the victim Miss Yuan Lingling in the gazebo, and no one found out." ”
Sima Qiqi saw the judge at this time and said slowly: "Your Excellency, I have witnesses and evidence to prove that Miss Yuan Lingling's testimony is not true. ”
When Sima Qiqi heard Ding Shan say this, a trace of joy flashed in his eyes, while the other three members still sat on the defense bench with a relaxed face.
Sima Qiqi looked at the judge and said slowly: "Your Excellency, I request the first evidence in court. ”
The judge nodded and said slowly, "This seat approves." ”
At this time, Sima Qiqi took out a USB flash drive and plugged it into the computer, and a video screen appeared on the big screen of the court, and everyone raised their heads and looked at the picture on the big screen with full attention.
"Your Excellency, and the rest of you, please take a closer look at the gazebo that appears on the video, which is the gazebo in the city park, which is where the victim, Ms. Yuan Lingling, identified her as being violated."
Sima Qiqi paused and looked at the others in the courtroom, and then said, "Your Excellency, have you found anything wrong with this video?" ”
The judge looked at the video and flipped through the documents in his hand, the judge looked up at the video again, and looked at Sima Qiqi, Sima Qiqi saw the judge's move and already knew that the judge had discovered the key point of the video, Sima Qiqi saw the judge frowning and smiled and said slowly: "Your Excellency, please allow me to make a statement on the evidence." ”
The judge came back to his senses and nodded in agreement.
"This video was shot by students from a hip-hop dance club at the university near the city park, and the students from the hip-hop club who performed in the video are the students of the hip-hop club, please pay attention to the shooting time of this video."
Sima Qiqi operated the mouse to attract everyone's attention, when Sima Qiqi pointed the mouse to the shooting date at the bottom right of the video, the audience in the courtroom began to discuss the sound of squirming, the judge waited for a while and found that this time it was not as quiet as before, so the judge coughed and quieted everyone down.
After the courtroom was quiet again, Sima Qiqi said slowly: "Your Excellency, from the evidence presented in the court, it can be seen from this video that at the time of the crime, there was a group of students from the hip-hop dance club rehearsing in the pavilion, then I would like to ask the witness, the victim Miss Yuan Lingling, you once testified that you were violated by my client and the other three defendants in this pavilion, so I would like to ask how my client and the other three defendants can violate you when there are so many college students at the scene, Besides, not to mention my client and the other three defendants in this video, even you didn't appear, could it be that my client or the other three defendants could still be invisible? ”
Sima Qiqi said and stared at Yuan Lingling, waiting for Yuan Lingling's answer, Yuan Lingling didn't seem to expect that there was such evidence at all, she sat on the witness stand in a daze.
Just when Yuan Lingling didn't know how to answer, Ding Shan stood up and said: "Your Excellency, the evidence provided by the defense lawyer does not explain anything, it is very likely that the four defendants and the victim have not yet arrived at the pavilion when the group of college students in the video was filmed, or saw so many people The four defendants held the victim hostage in the dark, and after the group of college students left the pavilion, the four defendants took the victim to the pavilion to violate." ”
When the judge heard Ding Shan say this, he also nodded and agreed with Ding Shan's statement. The corners of Ding Shan's mouth rose slightly, and he sat down slowly.
At this time, Sima Qiqi ignored Ding Shan, but looked at Yuan Lingling and asked, "Witness, I want to ask you, when was you violated?" ”
Yuan Lingling was stunned and whispered, "I don't know." ”
Sima Qiqi was about to continue to ask questions, Ding Shan stood up and said: "Your Excellency, I think the defense lawyer is wasting time, it is normal for witnesses to have a blank brain so they don't know the specific time after being hurt like that, Your Excellency Judge, I think the witnesses should be allowed to rest to avoid some people from mentally torturing the witnesses." ”
After Ding Shan finished speaking, he looked at Sima Qiqi instead, and Lu Diqi and the other three all looked at Sima Qiqi, these people had no worry on their faces, and there seemed to be a hint of mockery mixed with their faces.
The judge also looked at Sima Qiqi, after all, it was Sima Qiqi who was questioning, but Sima Qiqi's performance in this trial also made the judge feel a little unhappy, Sima Qiqi looked at Yuan Lingling, glanced at everyone again, sighed slowly and nodded and agreed to let Yuan Lingling leave the witness stand to rest.
When Yuan Lingling left the witness stand, Sima Qiqi looked at the judge and said, "Your Excellency, since Ms. Yuan Lingling has left the witness stand to rest, then I would like to request that one of our witnesses be summoned, who can prove that Ms. Yuan Lingling's previous testimony was unreliable and that my client was falsely accused." ”
When the judge heard Sima Qiqi say this, he thought about it and said slowly: "Defense lawyer, you have been questioning for a long time, are you sure you don't need to take a break, after all, there are three defense lawyers who can let them question witnesses." ”
Sima Qiqi looked at Lu Diqi and the other three who were sitting leisurely, the three of them looked at each other, then Lu Diqi stood up and said that he straightened his clothes and said slowly: "Your Excellency, we believe that it is most beneficial for our client to continue to be questioned by Lawyer Sima, so we are willing to let Lawyer Sima continue to interrogate the next witness." ”
After Lu Diqi finished speaking, he looked at Sima Qiqi, smiled contemptuously, and asked tentatively: "Lawyer Sima, did you say that it is in the best interest of our client for you to ask the next witness?" ”
Sima Qiqi looked at Lu Diqi expressionlessly, and said slowly: "Of course, Your Excellency Judge, I request that you continue to question the next witness." ”
The judge looked at Sima Qiqi and then at the other three, and reluctantly nodded to agree to Sima Qiqi's request, at which time Lu Diqi sat back in his place and made eye contact with the other two.
At this time, the witness on Sima Qiqi's side came to the court, it was a young boy, Sima Qiqi looked at the boy and asked the boy's name and origin, and saw the boy sitting in the audience always felt familiar, and when he heard the boy's own introduction, he remembered that this was the college student who had met street dance in the city park before, and Sima Qiqi's video evidence was to ask the boy to come.
Sima Qiqi nodded after hearing the boy's introduction and asked, "Do you go to the gazebo in the city park to practice at a fixed time or do you go to practice occasionally?" ”
The boy heard Sima Qiqi ask and replied slowly: "We go to the gazebo in the city park every Tuesday and Thursday to practice, and our street dance club has been practicing like this for several months. ”
Sima Qiqi nodded and continued to ask, "Then where are you on the night of the 10th of this month?" ”
When the boy heard Sima Qiqi's question, he said to himself: "On the evening of the 10th of this month, I went to the pavilion in the city park with my classmates from the hip-hop dance club to practice hip-hop. ”
Sima Qiqi pointed to Wu Jufeng and the other four at this time and asked, "So, I want to ask, did you see the four defendants appear in the city park pavilion or even near the pavilion when you were practicing?" ”
The boy looked in the direction of Sima Qiqi's finger, shook his head and said that he had never seen the four defendants, Sima Qiqi nodded and said to the judge: "Your Excellency, I have no problem." ”
The judge looked at the other three defense lawyers, and the three lawyers said that they had no questions to ask the witnesses, and then Ding Shan stood up and looked at the boy and smiled slightly and said, "Do you have any time to return to school?" ”
When Sima Qiqi heard Ding Shan ask, he quickly stood up and objected, and the judge was also puzzled by Ding Shan's question, so he asked Ding Shan: "Prosecution, what do you want to prove by asking such a question?" ”
Ding Shan looked at the judge and said confidently: "Your Excellency, since a university has a time to return to school, then the witnesses will definitely leave the gazebo in the city park for a certain period of time instead of staying in the gazebo all the time, then the evidence presented by the defense lawyer before cannot prove that the four defendants did not violate the victims." ”
The judge nodded and looked at Sima Qiqi and said slowly: "The objection is invalid, the witness asks you to answer the questions raised by the prosecution." ”
The boy thought for a while and said, "Well, our school rules that you have to go back to the school dormitory at 11 o'clock in the evening, because the dormitory manager will check the number of people, and if someone is not in the dormitory and does not ask for leave, then the award and evaluation will be hindered." ”
Ding Shan smiled and looked at the judge and said slowly: "Your Excellency, the witness just said that they must return to school before eleven o'clock, so the evidence presented by the defense lawyer just now cannot prove that the four defendants did not violate the victims, unless the defense lawyer can also produce evidence to prove it, the evidence presented by the defense just now is not convincing at all." ”
The judge nodded, looked at Sima Qiqi, Sima Qiqi was rubbing his temples and frowning and thinking hard, at this time, the lawyer stood up, looked at this "luminous body" and thought of what this lawyer seems to be called Zhuo Ao, this guy was the first to speak in the first court before, and it seems that he is indeed older than Sima Qiqi and the other three, and it is estimated that he is about the same age as Lao Song.
Zhuo Ao said slowly: "Your Excellency, I have evidence to request to be submitted to the court, and please summon a witness, Ms. Gu Qingju, who is also the victim's mother, to testify in court. ”
At this time, the middle-aged woman who had seen it before came to sit down on the witness stand, and she didn't have a good impression of this woman, and the first time she saw this middle-aged woman in Yuan Lingling's house, she felt that this woman seemed to impose all her thoughts on Yuan Lingling, and then she openly insulted Sima Qiqi in the court, which made it impossible to even look at this woman.
