Chapter 449: Gotham Trial Live Stream
Ice Hill Building, Snow & Company.
It's been three days.
Boss Snow ~ Luo Yang crossed his legs, lying on the office chair, waiting for the TV show to start.
In the past three days, Batman and Gordon have done everything they can to search for the traces of the scarecrow.
The poisoning incidents that occurred in Gotham were all related to the scarecrow. It's just that the scarecrow's whereabouts are very strange, he will go into battle on his own, and also use poison gas to control ordinary citizens, let them wander around and release poison gas.
The high-IQ crimes of the scarecrow are much higher than the reckless actions of gangsters and other criminals. Meticulous planning and no leaks. This is also a headache for the police and vigilantes in Gotham. Gordon and Batman had no clue for the time being, and they couldn't grab the scarecrow's tail.
Snow boss's office, LCD TV on the wall,
Instant footage of Gotham High Court, Court No. 1 appears.
The famous case of the city, Karman. The trial of Falcone being indicted by Harvey Dent actually changed from a secret trial to a public live broadcast under the operation of the underworld!
Luo Yang also happened to take advantage of his free time to "watch" this Gotham trial in the office.
In the eyes of the citizens of Gotham, this trial can be seen as a reality show and a ball game.
It's just a little less entertaining than the Super Bowl final.
Nobody believes it, Kaman. Falcone will be brought down by the young district attorney, Harvey Dante.
This Falcone is the underworld figure in Gotham with only one hand, second only to the penguin Copote.
No one is going to bet on Harvey. They, all waiting to see Harvey and Gordon's jokes.
In the plaintiff's bench in Court No. 1, two prosecutors are seated.
Harvey. Dante, handsome and dashing, tall prosecutor.
He is the Knight of Light in Gotham, and at the same time, he is also one of the few "idols" in the entire Gotham City who does not have any dark atmosphere.
Countless school-age girls in Gotham, even young women and aunts, have illusions about this heroic and capable justice prosecutor.
The reason why this live TV court hearing attracted nearly 30% of the viewership was also due to the charm of Harvey Dante.
At Harvey's side was his assistant prosecutor, Rachel. Dawes.
Speaking of this woman, it's even more complicated... (In fact, Rachel is the original character of Nolan's version of the Batman trilogy.) )
Rachel is a good friend of Bruce Wayne's childhood sweetheart. After entering the legal system, this beautiful woman with a good face and a slender figure gradually rose from an obscure ordinary recorder to become the youngest prosecutor in Gotham and even in the United States.
Rachel, who has had a crush on Bruce Wayne since she was a child. But I am very disgusted with Master Wayne's attitude towards life that is free from the world and at ease. As a result, Rachel's work partner, the famous Harvey Dent, gradually conquered Rachel with his personal charm.
Now Rachel, just waiting for Harvey Dent to speak, she will become Harvey's girlfriend and even his fiancée. Harvey is her ideal partner.
The protagonists of the trial are naturally Harvey and Rachel.
In the dock, Carman. Falcone was late, having just taken his seat two minutes earlier. He looks arrogant, and he judges himself to be absolutely victorious.
At the back of the jury, in the auditorium, sat James Gordon, Harvey Bullock, Hugo Strange (attending psychiatrist at Arkham Asylum), and Thomas Elliott (the eldest of the Elliott family). Even two assistants to the penguin Copote sat in the back row.
As for Bruce Wayne, he also rarely made an appearance. He sat behind James Gordon. Young Master Wayne crossed his legs and played with his mobile phone, looking chic.
Most of the people in the auditorium are from the top of the city.
Whether it's the underworld, the white, the common citizens, superheroes, and criminals, everyone is glued to the protagonists right in front of the courtroom.
"Now, the court is open!"
After the presiding judge announced the opening of the trial, Harvey Dante was the first to stand up and, in accordance with the process, read out the indictment drafted by the prosecutor's office, and emphasized the main points.
Karman. One of the most serious counts against Falco was homicide.
Next, Harvey Dent and Falcone's defense lawyer start a court battle!
The dark night of Gotham is the battlefield of Batman.
And the court is his battlefield.
The Harvey, who is logical, eloquent, and impeccable in offense and defense, can't help but remind Royan of Marvel's man who survives by fighting lawsuits. Blind Lawyer – Matthew. Murdoch.
Harvey took a document from Rachel and read it in court.
On June 15, 2011, Kaman. Falcone, at the Fisherman's Harbor pier, shot and killed two citizens. The two citizens are Liam. Paul and Aaron. Bender. ”
"—At the scene, Aaron's colleagues witnessed the whole process of Kaman's shooting and killing, and at the same time, they found the gun held by Carman from the shore, and after fingerprint verification, it was confirmed that the gun had Carman's fingerprints."
Harvey raised his left eyebrow and glanced at Falcone rather dashingly: "Both citizens are lone migrant workers who came to Gotham from the inland cities of the United States. I have here the voice recordings of the relatives of two citizens who demanded that Kaman be punished severely. Falcone. At the same time, the families who had been brutalized and murdered by Kaman's men also demanded that Kaman be severely punished! ”
After examining all the physical evidence, the presiding judge nodded to confirm the authenticity of all the physical evidence.
Harvey roared excitedly, "Two counts of first-degree murder! ”
Harvey said it, arousing the discussion of most of the celebrities in the auditorium!
It is conceivable that the ordinary people in front of the TV at this time are even more excited and excited, right?
The current bullshit law in Gotham states that there is no death penalty and the maximum penalty is life imprisonment. (In fact, it is also the law in most parts of the country).
Since there is no death penalty, first-degree murder will not be electrocuted or shot. But Falcone's sentence should also be life imprisonment, plus permanent non-bail.
Since Harvey did not have the ability to take Kamanfalcone to a trial outside of Gotham, his case in Gotham could only be tried with a life sentence plus no bail.
Of course, the Black Gate prison is very familiar to Carman Falcone, and in case he succeeds in escaping, it is not within Harvey's reach.
Luo Yang looked at the increasingly noisy courtroom on TV, and whispered, "Silence... Silence..."
The presiding judge slammed the trial hammer hard, and sure enough, he shouted "Silence!" twice in a row. ”(Quiet! )
Now the evidence is ironclad.
Boss Falcone, because he killed two worthless dock workers, he will have to spend the rest of his life in prison.
"Defense, what else do you have to say?"
The courtroom fell silent. Everyone waited for the leader of Falcone to speak.
After a few heartbeats of silence, Falcone smirked. "Hahahaha... Hahaha-"
He laughed so wildly that he almost choked himself...
After stopping his maniacal laughter, Falcone pointed at Harvey and said, "Blonde, you want to bring me down??" He exclaimed, "This is impossible! ”
"Don't try to get away with it again this time, Kaman. Falcone! Harvey Dent suddenly burst out from his seat, "For the sake of this trial, I, and the prosecutors, study your case file every day until 4 o'clock in the morning!" Every day! ”
Harvey Dent is asking everyone, have you ever seen Gotham at 4 a.m.?
However, most of the people in this room are night owls, whether it's Gordon, Bruce, or gangster guys... At 4 o'clock in the morning, I'm afraid more than one person has seen it.
At 4 a.m. in Los Angeles, most of the city is asleep. But this is not Los Angeles after all.
"Alright, please sit back on the plaintiff's side."
After the presiding judge raised his eyes and glared at Rachel, Rachel Dawes understood and immediately returned Harvey Dantra to his seat.
Karman. Falcone's defense lawyer spoke at this point:
"We are asking for a sixth certificate."
"—about Kaman. Proof of mental illness of Mr. Falcone. ”
As soon as he heard the defense lawyer say this, Harvey Dant instantly raised his eyebrows and became angry!
"What's going on??" He suppressed his anger and whispered to Rachel, "He has never used this trick in the previous trial!" ”
Rachel looked ahead and caressed Harvey Dante's thigh with her hand: "Harvey... Calm down. Maybe we can debunk him. ”
All the members of the jury and the auditors put down their mobile phones and books, waiting for the follow-up development.
Even Bruce Wayne put down his phone and stared at the defense lawyer for the defense.
After the defense lawyer issued a certificate, Rachel immediately stood up: "Plaintiff, question the authenticity of this mental illness certificate!" ”
"Explain why."
"Just ask, Kaman. If Falcone is mentally ill, how did he become the leader of the Gotham underground? Rachel asked rhetorically, "Even if he has a mental illness, why did he show proof today?" Before, we had never seen any signs of psychosis in Kamanfalco! ”
After the presiding judge asked the two judges to check the certificate, he looked at Falcone and said, "Defendant, the mental illness certificate was issued a week ago. The person who issued this certificate is..."
—Jonathan, Gotham Center for Psychiatric Studies. Dr. Klein. ”
The presiding judge went on to say, "If Dr. Klein is not available, the court will not be able to confirm the authenticity of this certificate." ”
"Dr. Klein is waiting outside the courtroom." The words of the defense lawyer were like dropping a depth charge, which once again made the courtroom boil.
"Put Jonathan. Klein, as a witness for the defense, bring it on! ”
Dr. Klein, with a leisurely step, walked in through the open side door. This tall and thin man, wearing thin-rimmed glasses and a faint stubble, looks like an intellectual.
Luo Yang immediately began to search on his computer, searching for information related to this benevolent brother.
Google data shows: [Jonathan. Dr. Klein. Senior Psychiatrist at the Gotham Psychiatric Research Center and Professor of Psychology at Gotham University. 】
The certificate of mental illness he issued would be a barrier that Harvey Dent could not surmount.
In the courtroom, Harvey Dant, the plaintiff, had several drops of soybean-sized sweat oozing from his forehead.
Not only Rachel, but most people, including Royan, Bruce, and Gordon, understood that the situation was reversed and the plaintiffs collapsed in an instant.
Who would have expected Kaman. Will Falcone play such a trump card?
According to the current situation, the boss of Falcone will be tried by the court to be exempt from criminal liability, and he only needs to pay some money and go to a mental hospital to lie comfortably for a few more years, and he can resume becoming a gangster in Falcone again!
Harvey stood up and asked Dr. Klein and the proof of mental illness. His questions are very tricky, trying to prove the unreliability of this proof from the side.
However, Dr. Klein also managed to make it watertight. Klein brought detailed test records and assured in court that his test results were true.
Everything went in a direction Xavi didn't expect, and he could no longer control the situation.
Several of the jurors were gangster-paid jurors, and if Falcone got the "Dan Shu Iron Ticket" of mental illness certificate, he would surely win this courtroom battle!
Harvey's defeat has settled, but Royan in front of the TV noticed two interesting things.
First of all, this Dr. Klein looks familiar.
Isn't he a scarecrow??
In addition, in the TV screen, Master Wayne can no longer be found.
It can be found that Bruce Wayne left Courtroom 1 before Dr. Klein appeared.
Royan stared at the screen, and he wondered if Bruce had already started an operation against Dr. Klein?
Bruce Wayne has been in Gotham City for so many years, and Gotham has not only honed his determination and will, but also created Batman, who has the same extraordinary detective ability and hanging skills...
Batman verbally claimed that he had not found any trace of the scarecrow, but in fact, he had already locked the suspicion on Dr. Klein's body!
