0034 Attitude determines the future, don't make promises
The two policemen stood at the door of the room and glanced at each other, and the policeman who was recording some information put away his notebook and pen, "Good news, we have caught the guy who took your things, but you also need to identify it, do you know what I mean?"
Instead of saying "steal" and "burglary," he used the word "take," and he was downplaying Lynch's question about the nature of the case while putting pressure on the other side.
Not everyone has the courage to go to the scene to identify criminals, and last year some people made statistics that about 61.94 percent of the witnesses were unwilling to identify the criminals, and more than 77.53 percent of the witnesses were unwilling to testify in court.
This has already explained a lot of problems, which can be seen as the result of the poor law and order in the Bayler Federation, and can also be seen as the reason why the criminal forces are still arrogant.
In short, having people testify against criminals is undoubtedly a way to increase the pressure on witnesses, but they found the wrong person, and Lynch immediately changed his clothes, "What are you waiting for?"
The two cops were a little confused about what was going on with Lynch, but they did hope that the matter would be resolved "satisfactorily".
On the way to the police station, the cop sitting in the passenger seat talked about the "criminals" they had captured.
"It was a sixteen or seventeen-year-old school-going young man who didn't admit he had done these things, and we really didn't have enough evidence to convict him completely......"
This sentence is true or not, it is completely to treat Lynch as a layman, in the police station, as long as they believe that someone is a criminal and if necessary, they can crucify the criminal with a little bit of evidence, and it is clear that this time they are not planning to do so.
The policeman glanced back at Lynch, "I think that little guy should be given a chance, this case with less evidence could ruin his life for the rest of his life." ”
He paused as he spoke, "You were not harmed, and the damage was limited, if he is willing to compensate you a little, I think you can talk about it." ”
After saying these words, the policeman turned around, and he had said everything he should have said, and as for the outcome, it was not up to him, a small policeman on the front line, to decide.
For the two policemen in the car, in fact, it doesn't matter how Lynch chooses them, anyway, the sky can't hit them on the head, they just try to do what their superiors order.
They didn't say anything to Lynch for the rest of the drive until the car stopped inside the police station.
"Have you thought about it, young man?", a policeman led him towards the office building of the police station and pushed open the door to the hall for him.
Lynch nodded calmly, "Maybe I really should talk to him." ”
"Clever choice!", the cop patted him on the shoulder and led him to the interrogation room to the side, a light-hearted smile appeared on his face, and whispered, "You can open your mouth wide like a lion and tear off a piece of meat from him, he's a rich bastard, at least richer than us, you know what I mean?"
Lynch nodded, the policeman pursed his lips in satisfaction, he stood outside the door of the interrogation room and opened the door, and whispered again, "We turned off the recording system, remember to knock on the door when you come out, and I will be waiting for you outside the door!"
There are too few good people like this, and Lynch nodded vigorously and walked into the room.
In fact, at this point, the whole process of the police station is completely messed up, and the victim and the perpetrator, or the plaintiff and the defendant, cannot meet each other until they go to court, but some things are like this.
Rules are rules, reality is reality.
There was only one table and four chairs in the interrogation room, all of which were fixed to the ground, and little Michael sat on one side of the table with his head down.
Lynch's arrival made him can't help but look up at Lynch, he didn't understand why the ring in his father's drawer was actually a stolen item, which made him breathe a sigh of relief and lift his heart again.
The ring was not evidence of Michael's betrayal of the family, but its questionable origin meant that his father may have been involved in a crime, and he had a ...... in his heart The struggle and pain that he couldn't even express, he didn't know how to do it, and at the same time felt that Michael was not easy.
The police also talked to him, and they would find the informant, and if he could persuade the informant to withdraw the case, then he could leave directly after paying the bail.
This incident will not become a stain on his file, after the withdrawal of the case, he did not commit another crime for a certain period of time, and all the information will be completely packed into another information bag, and ordinary people will never see it.
Little Michael opened his mouth when he saw Lynch, and then closed it again, he didn't know how to speak.
A child at this age tends to have a very clear view of right and wrong, and he sees Lynch as a "victim" and suddenly he finds himself dirty because he is trying to destroy justice and fairness like some people he doesn't like.
The feeling of shame prevented him from speaking, so he could only keep his head down and remain silent, waiting for Lynch to make a condition.
No matter what Lynch proposed, as long as it was not too excessive, he would agree, it was not actually his sin, but he wanted to atone for his father's sins.
He didn't know why Michael would burglary and take Lynch's ring, but it happened, and there was no point in dwelling on it anymore, all he needed to do was give Lynch enough compensation and cover his father.
It's just that...... Sometimes young people are reluctant to admit that they are young, and they will eventually be slapped in the face by reality.
Lynch sat down and paused for a moment, "I'm not here to talk to you about how much money you can spend to solve this ......matter", little Michael raised his head in some surprise, and Lynch continued, "Don't think that you have a few stinky money, you can influence the justice of justice, even if the lawsuit goes to the state court, I will not compromise!"
Lynch's statement made little Michael realize that things did not develop as he had just considered, so to say that a slut is hypocrisy, and a second ago he fell into a sense of self-humiliation of moral degradation and couldn't extricate himself, and at this time, his heart was shocked by Lynch's unwillingness to compromise statement that his legs and stomach began to tremble!
Before he could open his mouth, Lynch continued, "Everyone is responsible for their actions, whether you are a student or not, or anyone else, even if you are a government official, you must be judged justice." ”
"The courtroom, the judge, and the public will give you a fair trial, no matter how high you stand, the moment the judge's gavel falls, you will be pulled down, and the higher you stand, the more painful it will only hurt you. ”
Little Michael's face began to sweat, he didn't completely put himself in the role of a criminal suspect, but his father, Michael.
It gave him a struggle, a tangle and pain that he couldn't describe, and he could already imagine what happened when Michael appeared in the courtroom dock and was found guilty, and the family, in an instant, was over.
"No...... Is there room for negotiation?", his voice was filled with something bitter, but also with a hint of anticipation.
Lynch shook his head, "Would you be willing if I broke into your house and took your most important thing, and then smashed it in your face with a wad of bills and told you that this matter was left to pieces?"
Little Michael stopped talking, his mood was very low, the corners of Lynch's mouth hooked slightly, and then stood up.
"I'm here to tell you my attitude, there is no compromise at all, I don't want your stinky money, and you don't look down on others!", he got up and walked to the door, knocked on the door, and left under the inexplicable gaze of the police.
Soon the policeman also walked in, he pinched his waist and looked at the depressed little Michael, still confused and asked, "Have you negotiated?"
Little Michael sighed heavily, he knew very well that his current life, family, and social status all came from Michael's work.
Once Michael is prosecuted and sentenced, even if he doesn't go to jail, his job is over.
The IRS doesn't want a tainted person to be in management, and once Michael loses his job, the family moves out of the middle-class neighborhood to live in Downtown.
The future will be shrouded in a gloomy haze, and only by keeping Michael's job will the family not have too many problems.
Even little Michael thought that when the time came, Michael would have a way to get him out and give him a new identity to go somewhere else and start over.
Rather than implicating Michael, little Michael made a decision, he took a deep breath, looked up at the police, "I plead guilty, I confess to my burglary......"
At this time, Lynch, who was standing outside the police station, glanced back at the solemn police station, and a slight smile appeared on his face.
He would entrust certain people to take good care of little Michael in prison, just like Michael threatened him.
Little Michael will be everyone's favorite and have a lot of boyfriends!
