Chapter 116, work, work~

"Minors, women, emerging computer technology, cyber intrusions, arson, 17 deaths, hundreds of injuries."

The vast Courtroom No. 9 was silent, except for the voice of Brooklyn echoing above.

"Any one of the key words in this case is a nuisance. The convergence of these troublesome words makes it easy to realize their sensitivity and complexity.

the various opinions and the criminal proceedings that have arisen from this case, etc.

Naturally, as a judge, my task is to address this issue in accordance with constitutional principles, not emotions or prejudices. I do this in good faith to fulfill my responsibilities and duties as a judge.

Because of this, after careful consideration, I decided to start with the simplest form of fairness and justice – everyone who walked into the courthouse should be able to see that the goddess of justice was blindfolded. He taught us that we should see with our hearts, not our eyes, and that is the only way to practice justice.

When I was blindfolded, the case became simple.

This is a case in which computer technology was used to trigger a fire in an apartment building, resulting in casualties. The suspect who led the fire in this case deliberately caused it after knowing that his actions would cause the fire and cause casualties.

Now we are left with only one doubt - minors. ”

Brooklyn looked around, the Gilsons were heartbroken, and Emma Gilson lost her luster and became gray.

Donna and Wood listened intentlyβ€”as legal practitioners, they both knew exactly what the consequences of the case would be.

Minors sentenced to death!

This means that from now on, the excessive protection of minors by the law will be curbed, and previous judgments involving minors may be appealed or even overturned.

This means that on a legal level, minors will be considered approximately equal to adults.

All of this will cause a tsunami in the judicial community!

The reporters in the gallery also understood this truth.

Their eyes were shining, and many of them even took out their mobile phones and broadcast Brooklyn's speech live to their colleagues on the TV station.

"There has always been controversy about age, and the federal system has never been perfect, and if we are already perfect, we don't need to continue to work on perfecting it, because it is already perfect."

"Unfortunately, in the current judicial environment, affected by various factors, in order to be close to fairness, even 0.1 inches, we can only rely on data."

"Because there are too many influencing factors in reality, there are too many possibilities in reality, reality is not Arthur Conan Doyle's novel, and we are not Sherlock Holmes, and many truths in reality are often not revealed to the world."

"In this case, the court fully listened to the opinions of both parties in relation to the age dispute of Emma Gilson and finally ruled that the information contained in the available police database should prevail.

That is, the age of the defendant Emma Gilson, which is based on 22 years old. ”

"After determining Emma Gilson's age, the last difficulty was also resolved."

"This case has once again reverted to its original form – a vicious incident in which a deliberate arson caused a fire that killed 17 people and injured hundreds of people.

Similar cases have at least a hundred precedents to follow.

Therefore, after comprehensive consideration, I made the death penalty verdict. ”

The death penalty does not correspond to the minimum 25 years and maximum life imprisonment that the defendant was originally told, but Brooklyn has already given the reason in his speech above β€” one of the points of contention in this case, age.

If it is strictly pursued, there is a chance that the defendant will win the invalidation of the ruling in a million or even 1 in 10 million.

Of course, no one on the scene paid attention to this.

Brooklyn's words have been finished, which means that the Emma case is over, and all that remains is to go through the procedures, take them into custody, apply for the death penalty, wait for approval, and carry out the death penalty.

But the repercussions of this case have only just begun.

Compared with the significance of this case, the previous public opinion debate was only pediatric.

How should I decide if there is a discrepancy between the official information and the actual situation?

What kind of punishment principles should be followed for juvenile crimes?

These two points of controversy alone are enough to spark a discussion.

These two issues are one of the many problems that plague judges, and for a long time, there have not been too many controversial cases because the defendants are minors and because the contents of the official database do not match the reality.

Even sometimes everyone knows that the defendant is guilty, but because of the identity of a minor, because the information does not match the reality and cannot define the identity, the indictment is finally dismissed, and the suspect is at large, even mocking in front of the victim or the victim's family.

Once the case file is reviewed, similar cases will be traced in the future.

…………………………

Brooklyn leaned over the window and looked down, wondering if there were a few people in the crowd downstairs who genuinely cared about Emma Gilson.

Bob walked softly into the office, picked up a stack of papers, and asked Ray with his eyes.

Ray stood beside Brooklyn, silently shaking his head.

Bob sighed silently.

When they came back from the courtroom in the morning, they found that Brooklyn was not in a good mood, and combined with Brooklyn's speech at that time, Bob and Ray could easily understand that this was the end of the life of a young girl in the flower season and was 'sentimental'.

Brooklyn stood by the window and let out such an exclamation again.

"Blue?"

Ray shouted cautiously.

Brooklyn withdrew his gaze and took off his robes as he walked towards the hanger.

"Off work? Let's go, according to the plan, today we are going to buy a bed. Come on! ”

Thunder:......

Bob:......

Bob grabbed a stack of files and stopped at the door.

"Dear Judge Brooklyn, by the time you're done dealing with this, it's almost time for the end of the day."

Bob said in a weird voice

Brooklyn's arms clutching his coat froze in mid-air, his eyes staring straight into the dossier in his arms.

"I'm not in a good mood right now, Bob."

He put his coat back, turned around and grabbed the robe and draped it over his body, and stood back by the window, with a melancholy face, and said in a heavy tone.

"I feel like I've got blood on my hands, Monrika is right, I'm an executioner......"

Bob didn't want to listen to his ramblings, so he stuffed the file into his arms, pulled him to the chair, and chimed in

"Yes, yes, yes! You don't have blood on your hands, but you can get some ink. Come, take a look at this one, and if it's all right, sign it here. ”

He even thoughtfully helped Brooklyn turn to the signing page.

Brooklyn saw that it didn't work to sell miserable and pretend to be pitiful, and immediately changed his face in a second.

"Bob, you're my judge's assistant, you should learn to share more."

"Yes, yes, look, it's okay to sign here after reading."

Bob didn't argue with him, and casually perfunctory, urging.

"Nothing else, I have accumulated so much work that I haven't done, don't you have a little responsibility?"

Brooklyn asked, looking down at the dossier.

"Responsible." Bob nodded his head in a sly manner, "I should have warned you when you were frantically taking the indictment." ”

"I should knock you out when you insist on going your own way."

Brooklyn:......

He grabbed his pen and reviewed the file word for word, eventually signing his name in the place Bob had specified.

"Nelly is an old clerk, we should learn to give her more trust and respect."

Although he is very honest in his hands, Brooklyn has no intention of admitting defeat.

Bob took the reviewed file and spread it out in front of him.

"Yes, yes, you're right, this book is signed here."
