That afternoon, Winston was interviewed by A in his hospital room. The interview didn't really have much substance, except that Winston needed to show up to confirm to the public that he was only injured, not dying or dead, and that he would be able to go back to work soon.

There is no talk about how he was injured or who hurt him. A got the scoop, finished the interview and left satisfied.

In the evening, Winston called Brooklyn, and the two sides briefly exchanged the next steps, and hung up in a hurry.

Earlier, they had both been informed that Patti had hired a lawyer and had left the NYPD.

After hanging up the phone, Brooklyn personally contacted Judge Rosseni Cindy on duty and asked her to immediately provide a restraining order prohibiting Patti from leaving New York while the investigation was underway.

He then contacted Anne and David to inform them to stop the investigation and that a lawyer would take over later.

The Brooklyn arrangement is actually a bit of a 'power for personal gain'. Winston did not call the police, procedurally speaking, the police did not know that Winston had been shot, and although the news had reported it, the person did not report it, and the police did not have evidence.

The police cannot start an investigation based on news reports alone. What Winston has to do now is to heal his wounds, play the role of a good victim, and wait for the court to accept the indictment.

Everything Winston and Brooklyn have done since the incident has been playing the role of victims.

They concealed the details of what happened from the media, showing a posture of 'I am aggrieved, but I won't say it', and put on a posture of taking the overall situation into account.

If things go their way, all is well. If Patti refuses to sit back and choose to be the first to reveal the truth to the media, everything they do will come in handy.

Patty is screaming as the perpetrator, and Winston, as the victim, is silent and considers the overall situation.

Comparing the two, as long as there is a little guidance, just from the perspective of public opinion, Patti will fall into a situation from which he will never recover.

People always sympathize with the weak and sympathize with the victims. People always like to put up with humiliation and take care of the big picture.

Moreover, they are not completely reversing right and wrong and taking advantage of public sentiment. Winston was indeed a victim.

Winston recovered quickly from his injuries, was well nourished, and was functioning well, and doctors believed he was ready to be discharged from the hospital.

But Winston was not discharged from the hospital, he still lay in the intensive care unit, living an enviable life except for eating and sleeping every day.

He was waiting, waiting for Patty to make a move, waiting for the team of lawyers to get ready. The team of top lawyers at Pearson Spector Law Firm lived up to their exorbitant fees.

The indictment is already lying in the lawyer's computer, and the evidence has been basically collected. It's just that Patty didn't choose to make the truth public, which makes them a little sad.

Winston is not afraid of family ugliness. He has the confidence to play the bitter card and turn the sympathy he has invested in him into support, even if Patty is open to announcing his frequent infidelity during his marriage.

Winston's team of lawyers is even ready for public relations work, just waiting for Patty to make it public.

But Patty wasn't stupid, she listened to Winston's threats before she shot that night, and she didn't want to spend the rest of her life in prison.

As Winston's chief of staff, a core member of the campaign office, and the pillow man with whom Winston spent many years, Patty knew Winston well.

After calming down, he already had an insight into Winston's strategy. It's one thing to be insightful, it's another to break the game.

After arranging all this, Winston and Brooklyn had a discussion about the matter, and even with the wisdom and experience of the two of them, there was no perfect way to get along.

……………… Friday, March 15. Frederick Samr offered to sign a witness protection agreement whereby he would provide police with a lead of appropriate value each year as long as the police ensured his safety.

During the negotiation of the deal, Frederick Samr demanded that the witness protection agreement must be signed by the NYPD, the FBI and other departments, and the authorized judge must be Brooklyn, and he asked to meet Brooklyn.

The collapse of the New York Children's Rights Protection Organization has caused a lot of earthquakes in the industry, including the judiciary, the police, the political and other parties, who are more concerned about this matter.

Frederick Samr has previously thrown out many clues that have whetted the appetite of the authorities. According to the analysis of FBI experts, Frederick Samr's intelligence is extremely valuable, and with him, the illegal trafficking of human beings and organs in the federation will be dealt a major blow, and the information he can provide is likely to benefit tens of thousands of people.

This is the official statement, but in fact, the child rights protection organization can achieve the scale it is today, and it is by no means possible for a non-governmental public welfare organization to achieve.

In the process of its growth, how many official figures were involved in it, outsiders have no way of knowing. With Frederick in his hands, it is possible to grasp the handle of these people and use them for his own use.

The FBI and others tend to sign witness protection agreements, and Frederick gives him whatever he wants.

To this end, the relevant departments of the FBI have specially formulated a plan for seven years, which is expected to hollow out Frederick and squeeze all the value within seven years.

The FBI doesn't care about Frederick's real fate, they care more about Frederick's intelligence value, and as for what will happen to Frederick after he is squeezed dry, that's not something the FBI needs to consider.

It doesn't matter if he is sent to the African diamond mines to be mined, sent to a prison area for imprisonment, or executed or returned to a child rights protection organization.

But the proposal by the FBI and other departments has met with a lot of opposition from the judiciary. Many members of the judiciary believe that if people like Frederick, whose hands are stained with children's blood, can be traded, it will be a disaster for the federal justice system.

Shouldn't the original LD also be traded? If Flekimir is arrested on the battlefield in the future, will it also be traded?

Yes, the Federation has never let its guard down on the giant bear with which it once fought for supremacy. Or which high-ranking official of the Federation will be able to trade for treason in the future?

Is everything tradable? The Federation is the kingdom of mankind and should not be in the business of the devil. What can be traded is the devil's contract, not the justice of the Federation.

Not only did these people oppose Frederick's deal, they used it to point the finger at the much-maligned plea bargain.

This has attracted more professionals to participate. Since federal law made plea bargaining legal, the judiciary has never stopped arguing about this provision.

Although the opposition has imposed restrictions on plea bargaining, it has not changed the fundamentals of plea bargaining.

That is, it seems that the opposition has been winning, in fact they have never won. The Frederick deal was seen as a new opportunity.

The conflict between Brooklyn and Frederick is not hidden, and anyone who cares will know it with a little investigation.

Brooklyn has also made a name for himself in the recent wave of racism, and it is reported that he will be groomed as the next generation of Harvard students.

Brooklyn may seem small and alone right now, but in fact he may be able to draw on Harvard's entire network.

It's a force that can make anyone look at it. And according to their speculation, Brooklyn apparently preferred to see Frederick in the electric chair rather than being protected as an important witness at ease.

As a result, the opposition believes that as long as they oppose Frederick's deal, they can pull Brooklyn sides.

Although Brooklyn also has an impact, it is not the most important thing, what matters is the Harvard school behind him.

Thus, a debate between Frederick and Brooklyn himself, but in which he was involved, whether the plea bargain should be abolished, was vigorously ensued.

The opposition is not greedy, and for now it believes that if it is a plea bargain, it will be a victory. As for the other messy deals in the judicial trial, there will be time to slowly oppose them later.

After all, it's a long time coming! When Brooklyn looked up from the 'backyard fire' incident in Winston and looked at the outside world, he was shocked to find that in just one night, he was inexplicably embroiled in a dispute over whether to ban plea bargaining.

Things have developed to this day, and Frederick is no longer important. If the plea bargain is successfully banned, he will naturally not be able to enjoy the life of a witness and should be sent to the electric chair.

If plea bargaining can't be outlawed, blocking Frederick's deal won't help. And because the dispute originated from Frederick, once the plea bargain was banned, Frederick would shut up completely, and the FBI's seven-year plan could be thrown into the trash, which made the dispute even more complicated.

The Harvard faction, led by John Manning, smelled the anomaly early, but the Harvard faction did not go ashore in time to protect itself, but participated fully in it.

The Harvard faction is just a more general term, more akin to a loose small group, and there is no consensus on plea bargaining within the Harvard faction, so how can it be possible to get ashore in time and clean themselves?

The Harvard school chose to participate actively, so how could Yale be willing to be left behind? So the originally unrelated Yale school was involved.

The participation of the two major judicial schools made it impossible for the larger group of the academy to participate in it completely, and it could only be regrettably withdrawn.

In addition to the confusion in the judicial circles, there is also the involvement of Frederick-related figures. Some people associated with Frederick feared that the FBI's seven-year plan would succeed and that they would be controlled, and they actively participated in the 'discussions', angrily denouncing plea bargaining as a devil's bargain, and urging the NYPD and the FBI to seize the time to give Freddrake the death penalty.

In order to shut up Frederick as soon as possible, they even suggested that Mr. President approve an expedited treatment of Frederick's death sentence.

It is common for petitioning presidents to grant amnesties, or even no petitions at all, and every president issues a large number of amnesties at the beginning and near the end of his term.

However, it is the first time that a petition has been issued by the president for a 'special death order'. This group of people with ghosts stirred up the storm and hoped that Frederick would shut up as soon as possible, while the other part of the people who hoped that they would hold the handle of this group of people were the opposite.

They also actively participated, talking about the benefits of plea bargaining, detailing the contributions of plea bargaining, and calling for the continuation of plea bargaining.

In the judicial circles, the issue of plea bargaining was relatively simple, but it was suddenly inserted by an unfamiliar force.

This has aroused the alarm of many people. Due to the characteristics of the separation of powers in the Federation, the various powers have always been relatively xenophobic and sensitive to the influx of strange forces.

It's like wolves smelling an unfamiliar smell in their territory. A large number of members of the judiciary immediately put aside their disputes and began to wander around, looking for the source of the unfamiliar smell.

But others think that this is just a normal 'passing', and that the strange forces are only for Frederick, not to break into the judicial circle.

These people chose to ignore the unfamiliar smell, and they continued to argue about the merits of plea bargaining.

So when Brooklyn began to pay attention to the storm in the judicial world, just one day later, the situation changed dramatically.

Watching the opposite speeches of the gods and goddesses, they were still opponents on the first day, and they tore you to death on the show, but the next day the two brothers were so good that they couldn't wait to hug each other and wear a pair of pants.

This changing posture made Brooklyn feel tired. He wisely chose to stay on the sidelines. When someone called him to ask about his attitude, Brooklyn replied with 'stay on the sidelines,' 'leave our business alone,' and 'don't meddle.'

Since the racism incident, Brooklyn has been a 'mountain' in its infancy, and now people have begun to move closer to him.

Brooklyn, who had been on the phone all morning, suddenly realized that the turmoil might not be so bad. He can check through this turmoil how many people will express their stance towards him.

But when John Manning called, at 10 p.m., Brooklyn knew he couldn't stay out of it.

There was a noticeable change in John Manning's attitude towards him. He no longer greets on the phone, and he no longer instructs Brooklyn to do things without even an explanation.

John Manning bluntly explained his intentions and informed Brooklyn that Harvard had completed its internal statement and was ready to unify its voice to the outside world and snipe at the Yale faction first.

Now it's Brooklyn. Brooklyn noticed a change in John Manning's attitude, and stopped going around in circles, asking directly and sincerely if he could abstain.

"Yes." John Manning said solemnly

"But I need to explain the rules to you, Brooklyn."

"Voting is your right to win, and it is also your obligation and responsibility, and if you do not participate in the vote, exercising your power may lead to serious consequences." John Manning gave Brooklyn a detailed account of what's going on inside Harvard.

Prior to Brooklyn, there were 16 people within Harvard who were eligible to vote, with John Manning serving as 'Speaker' and not usually voting.

The current vote on whether plea bargaining should be outlawed is 4 to 11. It may seem like Brooklyn's attitude doesn't matter, but that's not how things work.

It was Brooklyn's first exercise of voting rights, and if he abstained, it would come across as weak and insignificant, and it would be difficult for him to grow stronger.

There was no need for John Manning to tell Brooklyn these words, but considering that Brooklyn was the most potential of the next generation and was the one who could sit in his place, John Manning chose to say it bluntly.

"Although your vote can no longer affect the outcome, the process and attitude of the vote are very important to you." John Manning finally admonished.

"Thank you, Mr. Dean." Brooklyn thanked him sincerely, and then gave his attitude

"I don't think plea bargaining should be outlawed."

“ok。 I know. "John Manning no longer talks nonsense.
