Chapter 43: Court Session (II)
"Your Excellency, the deceased Ms. Taylor and my defender did not have any conflicts of interest or affection during their lifetimes, so my defender has absolutely no reason to murder such a lady." Chavez asked at Elsa.
"May I ask Miss Elsa, has my advocate seen Ms. Taylor before or had any connection to her?"
Although Elsa was very angry at Li Qingyuan's shameless behavior, as a good girl who was raised as a lady by old James since she was a child, Elsa still had no way to speak with her conscience, so she had to say truthfully:
"No, Taylor never mentioned it to me, and I never met him!"
"Your Excellency, I have an important witness!"
Chavez nodded at Li Qingyuan, and then summoned a guy named Begde.
This guy admitted in court that he had an entanglement with the dead Taylor, so when he heard that Li Qingyuan was going to visit James's house, he specially asked the other party to put amoxicillin into Taylor's water glass.
Someone is on top of the bag, naturally everything is fine, although Elsa has strong suspicions, but even other suspects have come forward to confess their guilt, what else can be done?
"Well, although I don't know very well, but there really are such people? After designing the murder of others, because of the disturbance of conscience, did you stand up and turn yourself in? Howard asked, a little puzzled.
"I didn't expect Li to have such a great ability!" Penny took out two bottles of beer from her backpack and handed one to Max.
Although alcohol is not allowed in the court, for the two eldest sisters in the mixed society, they are not allowed to drink, isn't that fatal?
"It should be that he seems to have really made a fortune this time, this kind of case is willing to top, how much money did it cost!" Max took the beer from Penny's hand and poured it straight into his mouth.
As Max, who has been working all the way at the bottom of society, she doesn't know too much about this kind of trick of turning himself in in the court, thinking that when she didn't have a good time, she was also ready to help others make money.
It's just that she only dares to be charged with petty theft, and this kind of murder will not be topped if she is killed.
"It should be 200,000, the day before yesterday Li sold Rajesh something in exchange for a check for 200,000." Howard said.
"Oh my God! Why didn't he find the old lady, the old lady helped him top! Hearing the amount of two hundred thousand, Max almost stood up and roared.
"Max, pay attention, it's still in court!" Fortunately, Caroline quickly pulled her down, otherwise this stupid big sister would have been kicked out by the court in the name of disrupting the trial.
After a few of them made such a fuss, the verdict of the court over there had already come down.
Considering that Li Qingyuan was not yet 18 years old and was a minor, and that he had been deceived and instigated, the court sentenced him to three years and four months of juvenile camp discipline, and which of the Begd guys was sentenced to 18 years in prison for instigating murder and premeditated murder.
Of course, although it is said that it is eighteen years, but the various policies of commutation in the prison are calculated, it is only ten years at most, and for Bergman, ten years in prison can be exchanged for 200,000 US dollars, and he really wants to take a few more orders for this kind of good business.
Although Elsa was a little dissatisfied, after hearing the court's verdict, she felt that it was fair.
Because there is no death penalty in the United States, this kind of murder case lasted only 20 years, and now a principal offender has been 18 years and an accomplice has been an accomplice for 3 years, which can already be regarded as the conscience of the trial community, and no matter who goes through what procedures, they can't find the slightest fault.
"He's not eighteen yet? How can it be? Caroline was surprised by Li Qingyuan's age, no matter how she looked at that slippery boy, he didn't look like a minor.
"Three years, oh! If Lee stays there for three years, then it's okay! Max naturally knows Li Qingyuan's true age, but now she cares about Li Qingyuan's verdict.
The kind of place that the juvenile camp really doesn't treat people.
"Your Excellency, I have a Power of Attorney from Cal Poly here, and my advocate has become a member of Cal Poly and has participated in an important scientific study that is of great interest to humanity and society, and I hope that Your Excellency Judge will exercise discretion in dealing with my defender in accordance with the Extraordinary Talent Contribution Act." Old Chavez triumphantly pulled out a document from the folder.
Until now, he didn't understand why Li Qingyuan could get such a thing, you must know that this thing can't be bought even with money!
After all, those authentic elites are not short of money.
"What!" Maxcaroline and Penny all screamed, and of course, except for the four otaku groups in the entire courthouse, everyone else was scared to close their mouths.
It's funny that such an underage child can get a special authorization from the California Institute of Technology, right?
"Am I dreaming? Lee was able to do scientific research? Max was so surprised that he squirted beer out of his mouth.
Others don't know, can she still not know, Li Qingyuan has not practiced since graduating from junior high school, and has been living by cheating, what kind of scientific experiments can this kind of person do, isn't this the sun coming out in the west.
Sheldon sat in his seat a little sullen, as a super-genius scientist, his research proposal was basically not rejected, even if it seemed very ridiculous or even funny.
But that's the way scientific research is, before the creation of airplanes, who knew that humans could actually fly in the air? Wasn't Bruno also burned to death by the Holy See as a heretic?
What's more, this time it was a scientific research project jointly proposed by four professors, so although Caltech felt a little unbelievable about the topic of this project, it still passed the case.
Of course, because it is a scientific research organization that wants to be submitted for filing, the name of the Death Knights that he proposed is naturally unreliable at first hearing.
After all, the University of California also wants to be face-saving, well, how can this kind of name that sounds like an online game guild pass the review.
"Quantum Ghost and Dysprosium Value Fluctuations are the same as the multi-dimensional dimensional space oscillation logic data research group!"
The gray-haired judge looked at the lines of frightening people who couldn't understand the head, and the jumbled terminology inside, and was a little dizzy.
But although he can't read it, he can read the USC seal behind it, and this thing is definitely not fake.
