Chapter 179, Crazy New York
Brooklyn and Fang Yuan have discussed the merits of case law and statutory law. Written law is to write down the code of conduct, what things can not be done, what are the consequences after doing it, written clearly and clearly, so that people can see at a glance.
The codes of statutory law countries do not need to be interpreted by professionals, and ordinary people can understand them themselves. Because the code of a statute law country is used to regulate the behavior of the people.
This is not the case in case law countries. If there is no senior professional to guide the case law country, let alone ordinary people, people who have just entered the industry will not understand where it is.
The main contradiction between Brooklyn and Fang Yuan is that Brooklyn believes that statutory law can never exhaustively net criminal acts.
People are creative. It is clear which acts are illegal, which are criminal, and what are the consequences of doing them, and it also means that the code writes which acts are not illegal and criminal, and will not be punished.
While the code regulates what people cannot do, it also creates a gray area – that is, according to the code norms, it should not be illegal, but it is actually illegal.
This gray area can be an opportunity for those who are bent on breaking the law and committing crimes. In contrast to the 'script' of statutory law countries, case law countries seem to be 'very humane'.
When the two discussed, Fang Yuan once sighed that he didn't understand the case law, and he never knew how much unfairness might be buried under this 'human touch'.
Then the second point of contention between the two arose. Should absolute fairness and justice be pursued in law enforcement, that is, not about the original intention, only about the consequences of actions, or should it be 'humane'.
Absolute fairness and justice will make the law cold, and 'humane' fairness and justice will breed a large number of corruption and bribery.
This time, Brooklyn used the excuse of the two arguing. He excused himself by saying that he had received a typical case, which perfectly matched the core of the dispute between the two, and that the court had a lot of past precedents that could be lent to Fang Yuan for review, so that he could better understand the case law.
Everything was going well until Ray jumped out. This made Brooklyn realize that he might be imagining a certain sun too bright.
As Ray said, his teacher was a guerrilla. Sure enough, after a brief conversation with Ray in Brooklyn, a call from Lyley Crewe arrived.
To Brooklyn's surprise, the other end of the line was neither Fang Yuan nor Lai Li Crewe, but an old man full of energy.
The old man laughed and apologized to Brooklyn on behalf of Lyry Crewe, saying that Lyry Crewe had some trouble and had to break the appointment.
As an apology, I waited for Lyry Crewe to finish his work and hoped to invite him to dinner. Brooklyn had already calmed down at this time, and sneered in return
"Hopefully I'll be able to eat this dinner." The old man's laughter stopped abruptly, as if something had choked his neck.
Brooklyn continued nonchalantly
"Two justices of the Supreme Court have been investigated, your biggest umbrella is gone, and you are about to be in a catastrophe."
"Get Ray out, I don't want him to have anything to do with your car, don't implicate Ray when you fall. In return, I can vote against your trial, if you can hold out until I can attend your trial. "The cheerful old man feels that Brooklyn is crazy, and he has already begun to talk nonsense, naked empty gloves white wolf.
Not to mention that Brooklyn is not qualified to attend their trial now, and even if he is qualified, what can he do with a vote against them?
Does it show the benevolence of DGZY? Brooklyn pinched his eyebrows, his brain racing. The chips he can come up with now are simply not enough to participate in a fight of this level.
In order to pull Ray out of the quagmire, he can only gamble with his own future. The cheerful old man didn't understand what he said just now, but Brooklyn believed that a certain sun must understand.
If the other party is not uprooted, Brooklyn will do its best to help whenever there is a need. Of course, there is nothing wrong with the cheerful old man's train of thought.
From his point of view, Brooklyn is painting the pie.
"Are you kidding?" The cheerful old man asked. Brooklyn didn't want to continue to have contact with the gang for a minute, so he said it directly
"Tell Lai Lee Crewe what I mean," and hung up.
Hanging up, Brooklyn called Ray. Carefully looking at Ray from head to toe, up and down, Brooklyn rubbed his forehead and said a little tiredly
"Sooner or later, I'll be killed by you." Lei smiled, a little proud, and a little guilty.
He knew what his situation was. But the ideas he recognized and regarded as classics, and the ideals he longed for, made him feel joy every time he thought of it, and he couldn't help but share this joy with his friends.
This is probably what Fang said, Chaowen said, it's okay to die at night. Ray sighed silently in his heart.
…………………… Thursday, June 21. Brooklyn received several interesting indictments.
New York Harbor residents have sued a paper mill near the upper reaches of the Hudson River, alleging that the paper mill has polluted the Hudson River by discharging sewage into the Hudson River, which has turned green and emits a pungent odor when it flows into the sea.
Then came the second indictment, the same New York Harbor residents, who sued the city government, arguing that they had failed to do their part, that they had allowed the Hudson River to be polluted, and that they even suspected that the city government had been bought off by the paper mills.
The third indictment is against the same group of New York Harbor residents, who sued international environmental groups, arguing that their actions tarnished the name of environmental protection, and that New York City, which has branches of international environmental organizations, turned a blind eye to the pollution of the Hudson River.
The fourth indictment, also from New York Harbor residents, sued the city government on the grounds that they lived in a dirty and poor environment, that the city government should do its due diligence, that New York Harbor is also part of New York City, and that the government should provide them with a clean and tidy living environment, not a smelly gutter.
Brooklyn stopped when he saw the plaintiff in the fifth indictment. The fifth, also from New York Harbor residents.
New York Harbor residents: What's going on? Suddenly incarnated as a flat-headed brother, scared the sky and the earth! Brooklyn called Bob to inquire about the situation.
"Why are all our indictments filled with these?" Brooklyn tapped on the plaintiff's side and asked.
Bob picked up the indictment and looked at it
"I've tried to pick and choose."
"What do you mean?" Brooklyn asked.
"New York has gone mad." Bob said with a bitter face
"The New York Harbor indictment is the lightest and more reasonable. Indictments elsewhere are much more excessive than that. After Bob's explanation, Brooklyn understood.
Yesterday, I don't know what madness the people of New York City are going to, and they began to file indictments in federal court in droves.
They sued the New York City government, they sued the federal government, they sued the White House, they sued the president, they sued Hollywood, they sued the union, they sued the bosses, they sued their bosses, they sued nonprofits, they sued factories, they sued steamship freight, and even sued air and water.
As long as they can, they will sue. The crowd frantically threw indictments into federal court like madmen.
The people in the state courts were stunned. They looked at the bustle of the federal courthouse and silently shut down the 'business' that accepted the indictment, citing that 'the system had collapsed and was being repaired'.
The group was polite, despite the fact that the overalls they wore were similar to those of e.. The suits and leather shoes that came and went in Y were out of place, even though they were all big-shouldered and round-waisted, and exuded a rude atmosphere.
But they know how to follow the rules. It was a bit noisy, but no one was making trouble. The group of people waved the indictment in their hands, and while probing their heads forward, they greeted acquaintances, looked around, and whistled when they saw the opposite sex who was in good shape.
Even standing on the second floor, Brooklyn can feel the rudeness and enthusiasm on his face. Familiar taste!
Brooklyn glanced at it, then turned back to the inner court, silently moving the name of the rotating judge next to Doorie Crewe's name.
Lyleigh Crewe seemed to be really busy, and he didn't call Brooklyn even though he expressed his attitude.
If it weren't for Ray going out every night, Brooklyn would have wondered if the storm had passed.
"Get these back." Brooklyn put together the indictment in New York Harbor and handed it to Bob
"Let's pick and choose if there is a normal indictment." ……………………………… NYPD headquarters, a conference room.
The Eucalyptus Group and BAU come together. Walter O'Brien is operating a computer to explain the situation to everyone.
After Emma Gilson's death, Jason Gideon took Walter on a trip to the Metropolitan Penitentiary, where Walter 'caught' by the tail of the Patriot.
After a dizzying series of maneuvers, Voight made new progress.
“…… We found that at the time of Emma Gilson's execution, the prison's network was hacked, and the intruders stole the surveillance footage of Emma Gilson's execution. After a sleepy professional explanation, everyone present felt as if they were listening to a book from heaven.
David coughed, interrupting Walter's remarks
"Conclusion, we want conclusion." Walter glanced at David and said
"The conclusion is that I found that the prison network was similar to Emma Gilson's hacking of apartment buildings, but not the same as the previous Patriots' claims of responsibility."
"In other words, this time the 'Patriot' may be a fake?" David asked. Walter nodded.
"If it's fake, why don't the real 'patriots' do anything?" Pol asked. They hadn't dealt much with cyber intrusions, but the reasoning was the same, if someone did something in the name of a gang in New York City, the gang would do something.
Because they're taking the blame for someone else. If they don't do something to prove that they didn't do it, they face an official investigation.
Pay the price for something you haven't done, as long as you are a normal person, you will not do it. Walter shook his head, saying he didn't know why.
This touches on his knowledge blind spot, and he is not good at dealing with things related to human affairs. There was a discussion in the conference room.
Jason Gideon sat in the corner, looking at Toby, who was also cowering in the corner.
"There are two possibilities."
"One is that someone is fraudulently using the name of 'patriot' and wants to frame the 'patriot', and the 'patriot' may also be investigating."
"Another possibility is that the incident itself was done by members of the 'Patriots.'"
"The 'Patriots' is a loose hacker group, and its constraints on its members are not strong. It is possible that some member of the 'patriots' is 'acting privately'. ”
"But what do they want surveillance video of a death row inmate executing?" A member of the Eucalyptus team immediately raised questions.
"Confirmation of Emma Gilson's death." Jason Gideon spoke
"Emma Gilson must have some information, information that she doesn't know herself."
"This information can threaten the 'patriots,' and they want to confirm that Emma Gilson did not leak the information and will not have the opportunity to leak it in the future." David glanced at Jason Gideon, and his face was not very good-looking.
Jason Gideon's statement is tantamount to confirming that Brooklyn's judgment was wrong. When they invited Brooklyn to talk to Emma Gilson, Brooklyn came to the conclusion that she didn't know anything.
If Jason Gideon's claim is true, then Brooklyn is wrong. Emma Gilson knows something.
Because Brooklyn's error of judgment led to the execution of Emma Gilson, they lost the possibility of getting the news.
Jason Gideon seemed to see what David was thinking, and he added
"Emma Gilson may not have known the importance of the information she has."
"In her interview with Judge Brooklyn, Emma Gilson repeatedly mentioned that she had been tested to join the 'Patriots' and had passed it. Perhaps it was in the process that she inadvertently obtained some information. Walter thought for a moment and got up
"I need to check Emma Gilson's computer again." Jason Gideon nodded. David gave Jason Gideon a deep look.
Their lives are actually not easy. The F.B.I. is alarmed, even a little overdone, about the killing of witnesses protected by the witness protection program.
Although Monrica is only a small role in the witness protection plan, no one knows whether the murderer can only get information about a small character like Monrika, or if he has enough ability to get information about other witnesses.
If it's the latter, then the joke is too big. It's not just tainted witnesses like Monrika in the Witness Protection Program.
Once the witness protection program is infiltrated, it will be a disaster for the entire Federation. The Senate and House of Representatives have taken note of the incident, the White House is ready to send more professional people to participate in the investigation, and the NSA has begun to contact the FBI, CIA and other agencies to prepare to start arranging a new witness protection plan.
