The defendant's lawyer naturally knew that he had messed up, and he tried to remedy it.

Before returning to the dock, he applied for an adjournment.

But was rejected by Brooklyn.

He still wanted to find a reason, but Brooklyn had already called the plaintiff's lawyer to cross-examine him.

The defendant's lawyer pursed his lips, and his face was a little unpleasant.

He was half-seated in the dock, listening intently to the plaintiff's cross-examination, ready to interrupt at a critical moment.

Trenko came to the witness stand and asked

"How can you be sure that Ovis de Silva Velázquez is 100 percent not at the party?"

"Because I haven't seen her at a party!"

“obje！”

De Carion's answer rang out almost simultaneously with the objections of the defendant's lawyers.

Brooklyn couldn't help but look up at the dock.

He wanted to know how he was going to object to the first question.

And it seems that Diocarion scared the defendant so much that Brooklyn guessed that if he could, the defendant's lawyer would be eager to pick up a needle and thread to sew Diocarion's mouth right now.

Why didn't they find out that Diocarion was a big mouth with a mouth full of trains?

Brooklyn sneered, staring at the defendant's lawyer with bad intentions, "I'd love to hear what you have to say about the plaintiff's question." ”

"Uh......" The defendant's lawyer paused, then said, "The witness has already said that he did not see Orvis at the party, and the answer to this question is obvious. ”

"What about you?" Brooklyn turned to Tranko," he said seemed to have a point. ”

"Your Excellency, Judge." Tranko said unhurriedly, "I asked this question just to confirm it again with the witnesses. After all, we've all seen it, and today's witnesses are a bit unusual. ”

His words made many people laugh.

Unusual indeed. One was called to a urine test by Brooklyn, the other was called to do a psychiatric evaluation, and this one didn't seem reliable.

"The objection is invalid."

Brooklyn nodded, agreeing with Tranco's answer.

The defendant's lawyer opened his mouth and sat down again, still in a state of full attention, his eyes fixed on the witness's mouth.

"Did you not see it, or did she not show up? You know, these are two concepts. "Trunco doesn't intend to let it go, but continues to dig deeper.

"I didn't see it, doesn't that mean she didn't show up?" Deutscarion replied dissatisfiedly, "I greeted Edward and met everyone who had been at the party that night. ”

"Including staff?"

"Including the staff."

After a moment of silence, Tronco said to Brooklyn, "Your Excellency, I am going to present several pieces of evidence to prove that the facts appear to be different from the testimony given by the witnesses. I need this evidence to discern if Orvis was at the party that night. ”

After nodding in Brooklyn, Tranko, with the help of the staff, took out a hard drive from a brown paper bag, plugged it into the computer, turned on the big screen, and started playing.

"This is a copy of the video from the time of the hearing, which we took from the court's video system and confirmed by the court that it had not been modified in any way."

Trunco explained, just as the big screen lit up and the video began to play, so Trunco closed his mouth and concentrated on watching the video.

The video is preceded by Edward Norton's appearance in courtroom and Tranco's confrontation, which is directly fast-forwarded by Tranco.

The video under the five-speed playback is seriously dropped frames, just like a PPT, which looks particularly weird.

Just when everyone was puzzled, Tranko suddenly pressed the pause button, and the picture froze on Edward's anxious face, and then Tranko adjusted the playback rate to return to normal and continued to play.

Trenco: "Have you seen the victim at this banquet?" ”

Edward Norton remained silent.

The defendant's lawyer: "Your Excellency, just ask the other party to ask me directly whether my client has violated the victim." ”

Brooklyn: "Does he have it?" ”

Brooklyn: "Edward Norton, please answer the question." Who were the people who were at the party that day. Including those who participated in the middle of the process, as well as those who were present at the beginning. ”

Edward Norton turned back, and a bailiff stood up.

Edward Norton: "No! ”

Edward Norton: "I met her, she was one of the employees of the Succubus Company, dancing at parties. ”

This is where the picture comes to an abrupt end.

Ignoring the whispering of the jury and the auditorium, Trunco turned to take a file from Jason.

"This is the information recorded by the clerk that day."

He opened the file and showed it to the jurors.

The names of the participants who recorded Edward Norton's confession were among them Ovis de Silva Velázquez.

According to Edward Norton's confession, it was Orvis' real name and not his succubus registered with the succubus in the reverse direction.

At this point, Trenco did not give up, ignoring the whispers of the jurors, turned around and took another thick transcript and began to read it.

By this time, he had lost his former momentum, and he sat uneasily on the witness stand and twisted around.

"This is a transcript of an interview from a roommate at Orvis University, who was reluctant to testify in court for personal reasons, but she provided this transcript and confirmed the authenticity of this transcript."

Trenco showed Ovis' roommate's signature and read, "On the morning of April 25, I went to the library with Ovis, and at noon, she received a text message, and I asked her what it was, and she didn't answer. So we went back to the library after lunch and continued to read.

Until about three or four o'clock in the afternoon, she suddenly ran out in a hurry. I chased her out and asked her if she wanted to come back in the evening, but she didn't answer. Obviously, she didn't come back that night, and I brought her waffles, but she didn't, so I ate them all.

She didn't go back until noon on April 26, probably, I'm not sure, but she was there when I got back to the dorm at noon. But at that time, her mood was not quite right, and she seemed to be a little low. I was still angry with her at the time, and I didn't ask ...... much."

According to the testimony provided by Ovis's roommate, Ovis was not in the dormitory that day, but ran out in a hurry. The testimony given by the defendant at the hearing showed that Orvis was present at the party and danced for them. ”

"The defendant's testimony is temporally comparable to the testimony of Ovis's roommate, and our witness, Mr. De Carrion, insisted that Ovis did not appear at the party, but rather differed from the first two."

"If necessary, we can collect testimonies from people who were at the party that day to confirm whether Orvis was at the party on April 25."

"What do you think, Mr. Diocarion?"

Trenco asked, looking back at Diocarion.

“obje！

”

"What do you want to oppose?" Brooklyn asked in a disgruntled tone.

"He's threatening witnesses!" The defendant's lawyer also got out of the way and pointed directly at Tranco.

Brooklyn tapped the gavel with a gloomy face, waiting for the courtroom to quiet down before asking

"Deut Carion, do you insist you haven't seen Orvis at the party?"

"I ...... I read it wrong! Yes, I read it wrong! Maybe I'm wrong. I'm not so sure! "We drank a lot of alcohol that day, maybe I was wrong. ”

"You insisted in your previous testimony that you went to the party to help Edward Norton entertain guests, and that you met everyone who attended the party." Brooklyn flipped out his previous words and questioned.

"Maybe I missed it! Maybe I just didn't see Ovis! ”

Decarion was still struggling, but Brooklyn didn't want to hear it. The defendant's lawyer also frowned, and it seemed that he wanted to cover his face and get under the table.

"Alright. Mr. Diocarion, now you need to understand the sentencing criteria for perjury. And it's better to find a better lawyer to defend your perjury charges so that you can spend a few fewer years in prison. ”

"I did not testify under perjury!" Frightened, even his voice changed, he got up emotionally and screamed, "I didn't!" I just forgot! I forgot! No perjury! ”

"Take him out, clerk, and sort out what he says separately."

Brooklyn directs the marshals to take Detrion away, then says to the jury, "Please ignore the jury......

He paused, then continued, "Ignore everything from morning to now. ”

After saying that, he struck the gavel vigorously and turned to the original defendants.

"Because of the 'excellent work' of both of you, we haven't accomplished anything since the morning."

"This is the ugliest, most shameful, and most unbearable thing I have ever experienced! What you have done is simply disgusting! ”

"I knew that there might be many interests involved in this case, so some people couldn't sit still and began to reach out to witnesses, trying to achieve their own goals by bribing witnesses."

"Judging by the progress of the work so far, you are doing a good job!"

"You have succeeded in tarnishing the sanctity and justice of the law, and you have succeeded in making everyone work for more than ten hours in vain!"

"What's next? What do you want to do next? Bribing a jury? Or buy me? ”

Brooklyn's face grim and he kept banging on the gavel, the sound of wooden knocking and his shouts circling around the courtroom.

"This is a disgrace to the Federation! A disgrace to all legal practitioners! ”

"You, all of you here, will go down in history along with this one!"

"Don't be complacent. No matter how young you are, you will appear in textbooks, and professors will give examples to ignorant law students. You are the best anti-teaching material! ”

"The professor will use you to educate every law student' Look, the Eucalyptus of 2019 is a disaster! In order to win the case, both sides will do whatever it takes to buy witnesses from each other, so that the entire trial is stagnant, and everyone is doing useless work, which is simply the biggest joke of the 21st century! You must take this as a warning, and whatever you do in the future, you must watch your witnesses! ’”

"Hah! Watch your own witnesses!

！ ”

Bang –

Brooklyn roared in rage, the wooden mallet handle snapped, sharp thorns piercing the skin, and blood trickling down his wrist onto the table.

Brooklyn waved his hand to stop Bob from stepping forward, and simply stood up, raised his injured arm, and held half of the wooden handle in his hand, pointing at the plaintiff and the defendant.

"You both go back and sort out your evidence and witnesses, starting tomorrow, whoever witnesses make this trial a joke, I will make him a joke, the biggest joke in New York, the whole Federation!"

"If you don't believe me, you can try!"

"Warn some people, I know what you're up to, and I know what you're doing in the dark, so it's best not to let me catch you!"

"Now, adjourn!"

Brooklyn dropped the wooden handle and turned to leave the courtroom.

The courtroom was so quiet that people looked at each other, not knowing what to say for a while.

They understand why Brooklyn is so angry, and if it were them, they would only be more angry than Brooklyn.

Ben Yu has attracted a considerable amount of attention, and now the media people sitting in the courtroom can be said to come from all over the Federation, and everything that happens here will be quickly disseminated throughout the Federation through this group of journalists.

On such occasions, the witnesses of both the plaintiff and the defendant frequently had problems, either giving false testimony or being mentally ill, which simply ignored the majesty of the judge and rubbed the judge under his feet.

The most embarrassing thing about such frequent problems in a trial is definitely not the party that has the problem, but the presiding judge.

This is not to put the judge in the eye at all!

After a brief silence, the entire courtroom exploded with a bang, like an erupting volcano.

Brooklyn is gone, but the rest of the courtroom staff is still there, and the parties are still there!

Reporters swarmed around with microphones and shouted their questions.

'Judge Brooklyn hinted that witnesses were being bought, did you do that?' ’

'Judge Brooklyn thinks someone is buying witnesses, is that you?' ’

Judge Brooklyn implied that Ben Yu had many interests outside the court, but what exactly was he referring to? ’

Is Judge Brooklyn's recent deterioration on the Internet also related to Ben Yu? ’

'Will you buy the jury and the judge?' ’

'There's news that you're in contact with Brooklyn Lee, how much is he offering?' ’

'Is Brooklyn Lee angry because the price you offered didn't meet his demands?' ’

Can you tell us who you've bought? ’

Is it permissible by law to buy witnesses and court staff?' ’

The reporters were chattering and asking questions, and all kinds of news were flying all over the sky, blinding everyone to questions.

Bob was the first to react, picked up the computer and water glass that was being turned off, and rushed out of the encirclement.

Ray squeezed out with little Joseph in one hand and Jerry in the other, shouting 'No comment!' No comment! Let's get it! Let's get it!

！ ’

Jerry hugged his computer and keyboard, and looked at little Joseph with a look of horror on his face.

The whole courtroom was in shambles.

In less than ten minutes, reports full of spelling mistakes and even language problems appeared in major media outlets.

[Ovis's court session resumes, and Judge Brooklyn Lee is angry in public]

[Judge Brooklyn Lee is rarely angry, alluding to someone secretly undermining justice]
