Chapter 296: Jury

The notice of the provisional executive committee was posted at the door of the cafeteria in the green paint district, this time to recruit jurors for the grand jury for the trial of the three French drug traffickers. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 infoSomeone is going to ask, why do you want to learn from other common law countries to have a jury, anyway, it's a process to fool people, and just find someone to pretend to be a judge, clerk, and prosecutor, isn't it over?

However, this matter really has to come up with a personal dog-like jury to deal with it, Huang Xiaolei really can't figure out any Great Song Dynasty laws in a short period of time, so she removed the book cover of the 21st century Eagle Sauce family's law book and went straight to it. The members of the Provisional Executive Committee also felt that this was very inappropriate at first, but they couldn't find any way to come up with this big Song law, so they could only do it according to the method proposed by Huang Xiaolei first.

The three French drug dealers hired a lawyer from Tianjin Wei, and if they wanted to fool this late nineteenth-century lawyer with Huang Xiaolei's revised laws of the 21st-century Eagle Sauce family, they really had to assemble a jury. Otherwise, the style of your judgment does not match your set of "Great Song Laws" at all, and who asked you to imitate the laws of the common law system?

"I'm rubbing, everyone is very busy, who wants to sit stupidly and listen to those three white skins who are about to go into the ground?" A rough match complained.

"Yes, it's too unchallenging to be an extras for this kind of play that doesn't even need a script, the most important thing is that you have to sit from beginning to end, in case the protagonists don't look good, you can't laugh or leave early! Whoever likes to go, I won't go anyway. Another rough mate responded.

As these rough people complained, the three drug dealers who were caught were certain to die. The traversal has already made so many pigtail drug dealers swing, it is impossible to let these three white-skinned drug dealers survive, otherwise what is the difference between them and those Manchu adults who were forced by the guns of the great powers to sign unequal treaties?

This is not just about the so-called judicial fairness, if the Crossing Crowd makes a slight concession on the issue of trying these three white-skinned drug dealers, it will soon be doubtful that the mighty Great Song Empire exists.

In order to ensure that there are no fatal bugs in this play for whites, Huang Xiaolei has taken great pains in the past few days. First, he found one of the people who was engaged in antique counterfeiting before the time travel, and gave the twenty-first-century eagle sauce law books a dilated cover, and then tampered with several regulations to ensure that the crimes of the three white-skinned drug dealers were enough to meet the sentencing standards of the gallows. In the end, it was found that the Great Song Council and His Majesty the Great Song Emperor had authorized the circuit court judgment on the Liaodong Peninsula to be considered final, and according to this resolution, the judgment made by Huang Xiaolei would be a final judgment that could not be appealed.

Before the trial of the three French drug dealers began, the matter was already in an uproar, and a large number of foreign reporters flocked to the Liaoda Peninsula to observe the trial of the white man by the yellow race. This will be the end of the nineteenth century, the whole world is full of colonies and semi-colonies opened up by whiteskins, when did the whiteskins see people of color come to judge whites? That's big news!

In the early days, when the adults were still sitting in the well and watching the sky, they tried and killed many missionaries and drug dealers, but the result not only attracted the strong ships and cannons of the foreigners, but also left them with a bad and backward reputation in Western society.

Of course, the traversers know that no major powers will go to war with them because of the fact that a few small drug dealers who possess and transport drugs go to the gallows, and in the final analysis, war is the same as doing business, and you have to look at the input-output ratio. The current situation is obviously that it is more profitable to cooperate with the Great Song Empire than to fight with the Great Song Empire, except for the polar bears who are crazy about the ice-free port, there is no white skin who stupidly wants to go to war with the traversers.

But in order to give the West the impression that the Great Song Empire was a civilized and advanced country, the Provisional Executive Committee decided to give the three white-skinned drug dealers a decent trial so that the Western journalists who poured into the Liaodong Peninsula would have something to write about.

As Zhao Yi imagined, there were really few rough people who were willing to watch the three dying Frenchmen being tried like monkeys up close, and Huang Xiaolei simply couldn't get together the forty jurors of the grand jury for the indictment hearing. Fools know that the so-called jurors recruited by Huang Xiaolei are some tricks with no lines, well, using tricks as a metaphor These jurors also insult the word tricks, all they have to do is to make a guilty verdict at the final stage of the trial, no matter what the opposing lawyer says, the lines are just one sentence: We unanimously ruled guilty of the defendant! Who would want to be guilty of listening to this line in the courtroom for days without a expression?

In the end, the Provisional Executive Committee had to draw lots to select the members of the jury for this trial, and the coarse men who won the bid all shouted bitterly, thinking about the scene of listening attentively in the courtroom sitting on those newly made pine chairs, and the coarse coarse men felt that their eggs were about to break.

The job of the 40-member grand jury is to participate in a hearing presided over by a judge to decide whether to prosecute the criminal case, and then the 40 jurors are done. The jury that participates in the trial and ultimately determines the guilt of the defendant is called a mini-jury, which is generally composed of ten jurors, and the jurors of this small jury are selected by the defendant or his attorney from among the jurors circled in the courtroom. Huang Xiaolei basically copied the system of John Bull and Eagle Sauce, and she really didn't have the time and energy to make any innovations.

Of course, Huang Xiaolei is the chief justice, and other people in the green paint area don't know how to play this role at all, except for seeing the justices of the common law system adjudicating cases in British dramas, American dramas, and Hong Kong dramas.

And the traversal who served as a prosecutor and prosecuted these three French Yankees was a man named Zhao Yu, who was a domestic master of law, but unfortunately after graduation, he became a grassroots civil servant, and he didn't know how to go to court. Zhao Yu memorized the lines for several days according to the script written by Huang Xiaolei, and kept silently praying in his heart that he would not make a fool of himself in court.

The members of the indigenous task force who had been recalled from Tianjin to go to the island nation of Xiaguan to participate in the security mission were also given the opportunity to practice in advance, and the security tasks of the trial were still very heavy due to the large number of foreign reporters pouring into the Liaodong Peninsula to cover the news. These members of the action team with actual combat experience were temporarily transferred to take charge of the security work on the periphery, and Huo Yuanjia was one of them.

"Chief Kong, can this military dog really sniff out explosives?" Huo Yuanjia asked Kong Heng.

"There is a certain probability, this little guy has only received a few months of training, and he is only half-baked, and we have to search for more!" Kong Heng said helplessly.

Huo Yuanjia was temporarily assigned to Kong Heng's heavy engineer squad and was responsible for the security check at the entrance of the court. Huo Yuanjia was very curious about the situation of using a large number of working dogs in the traversal, he had seen large families raise some vicious dogs to come to the home care home, but like the owner, he used a large number of foreign dogs with similar appearances to undertake all kinds of different jobs, which made him feel incredible.

Regardless of whether this dog can sniff out the bomb or not, it is quite rare for it to look like it is forbidden, Huo Yuanjia thought to himself.
