Chapter 247: Three members of parliament appear in court

Nicola did not refuse, she immediately handed over the documents to the bailiff, who took them to the dock and handed them over to Cathy.

After some inspection, Cathy's face gradually became ugly, but in the end, she defended: "Your Excellency, my client's family business is huge, and it is normal for some links to have tax negligence declarations. ”

"Subjectively speaking, my client did not think about tax evasion, if the Western Suburbs Branch Bureau had warned and reminded him as soon as possible, the situation might have been different......

The Western Suburbs Branch did not remind the Camorra family to pay taxes, but directly took action, so her defense was quite valid.

"Your Excellency, I do not think that the defendant was negligent in his taxes, and if so, why should he flee from our country in such a hurry? What's more, in the process of escaping, how to explain the 63 million cash with him, so from the subjective point of view, the defendant's behavior has definitely constituted subjective tax evasion! ”

David also immediately stood up and retorted.

And Cathy was also speechless immediately, because she was so clever that she could talk skillfully, but the 63 million on the plane had been detained by the Western Suburbs Branch, and the source had been identified, which she couldn't explain at all.

"Defense, is there anything else you need to add?"

Nicola's reminder on the stage brought Cathy back to her senses, and after a while, she said loudly: "Your Excellency, even if my client is involved in tax evasion, after being detained, he has tried his best to cooperate with the work of the Western Suburbs Branch, which should be regarded as a meritorious performance!" ”

As a lawyer, when you can't clear your client's name for a crime, you can only try to get a lighter punishment.

"Your Excellency, if the defendant comes directly to the door to confess to us, it can be regarded as a meritorious performance, but he only shows his cooperation after he wants to flee and is intercepted by us, this is not a meritorious performance at all, and after interception, he did not disclose to us the details of his family's funds and the account of a Swiss bank, what kind of meritorious performance is this?"

Davy finished speaking, and Cathy didn't know how to argue anymore, until Nicola on the stage reminded her again, and she still couldn't say a word.

In fact, after the negotiation broke down with David in the Western Suburbs Branch, she could already predict that this would be the situation during the trial, and now when she came to the court, she was just a dead horse and a live horse doctor.

"Your Excellency, the details of the case are just the tip of the iceberg now, and I would like to summon my witnesses to come up and complete the chain of evidence."

Today's trial is public, and David naturally wants to put all the evidence on the table, so that the global audience can see that their IRS is definitely not engaging in a rhetoric or acting arbitrarily this time!

"Allowed."

With Nicola's permission, the inspectors of the Western Suburbs Branch came out of the passage with a group of witnesses.

Seeing the arrival of this group of people, many people in the Camorra family instantly became hideous, and some even scolded in the live broadcast.

David said that he was a witness, and they didn't know that these people were here to testify against them.

"Bang bang bang!"

"Stay quiet!"

Nicola slammed the gavel, then looked at the people who had come to the witness stand and asked, "Witness, please tell me your name and your relationship with the accused!" ”

"Your Excellency, my name is Craigie, and I am a ...... of Wilschberg Strasse Oh no, strictly speaking, the manager of the Camorra family on Wilchberg Street......"

"Don't slander, what a manager, we don't know you at all!"

Before Craigie could finish speaking, Bowison from the dock interrupted loudly.

And Craigie, who was interrupted, was nervous, after all, the Camorra family had ruled Los Angeles for so many years, and there was still a deterrent for a small character like them.

"Bang!"

Nicola knocked on the gavel and scolded: "Defendant, you have to apply to speak in court, and you are not allowed to shout loudly without permission, witness, please continue to say your testimony!" ”

With Nicola's endorsement, Craigie relaxed a little, organized his language and said: "Of course, although I belong to the Camorra family, the Camorra family has entered the upper class family over the years, so naturally it can't be linked to us, so he adopted a set of patterns, and this model is like this......"

"I see, this family is so clever in remote control mode, so even if any of its leaders have problems, they can't be held accountable!"

"No wonder this family can become the upper class family in Los Angeles, if something happens, there are subordinates who carry the black pot, and they can take the lion's share when they make money."

"I always thought that a family like the godfather only existed in movies, but I didn't expect that such a family really existed in reality!"

Under Craigie's narration, the sordid business model of the Camorra family was directly exposed to the public, which also caused a lot of discussion among the viewers who were watching the live broadcast.

"Good witness, thank you for your testimony, next."

"Your Excellency, my name is Mom, and I also belong to the Camorra family, and in their family's business model, I belong to the business ...... responsible for the distribution of white noodles."

“……”

In the following time, dozens of witnesses took turns to focus all the fingers on the Camorra family through layers of accusations.

At this time, the members of the Camorra family were as dead as ashes, and their eyes were tearing.

This business model is created by their family with great effort, not to mention seamless, but it can also be regarded as stable as an old dog, no matter which link goes wrong, they have a fault tolerance rate, and they can get rid of the crime.

But what they didn't expect was that the Western Suburbs Branch was so ruthless, and they actually directly arrested the person in charge of all the links in the model, and then under the accusations of these people, in the end, all the spearheads were pointed at their family, and now they couldn't excuse themselves even if they had ten mouths.

"Defense, do you have anything else to refute the testimony of these witnesses and the exhibits?"

When the words fell, no one in the Camorra family answered, and the entrusted lawyer Cathy also lowered her head and looked helpless.

Seeing this, Nicola didn't talk nonsense, and said directly: "Since this is the case, then now announce the result, the defendant ......"

"Wait for Your Excellency!"

Rickel interrupted, and then he glanced first at the dock; The high-ranking officials and celebrities who used to call him brothers and sisters found that they didn't mean to speak for themselves, so they turned their heads and gritted their teeth and said: "Your Excellency, since the Western Suburbs Branch has found out that our Swiss bank still has property, if I transfer all this money back to the tax treasury, can I exchange it for criminal immunity?" ”

As the person of the Camorra family, Ricker naturally understands the truth that he can stay in Qingshan without worrying about running out of firewood, and in this situation, if he can exchange his wealth for exemption from punishment, it can be regarded as the best result.

When it comes to $1.5 billion, Nicola doesn't dare to make a good claim, so she can only turn her inquiring eyes on David.

David didn't think about it, and directly vetoed: "Everyone criticizes our IRS court for being arbitrary, but what I want to refute is that we are fair and open, and the court is also a sacred place, not a place to trade with you criminals, so Mr. Rickle, you still have this heart!" ”

Not to mention that this time it is to use the Camorra family to make an example to deter and attack the criminals who attack the black tax bill, just now that it is broadcast live in front of the whole country, David will not be able to agree to this kind of deal.

Nicola also reacted immediately, and said loudly: "Director David is right, the court is a sacred place, not a place to do business with you criminals, now announce the verdict!" ”

"Rickel Camorra, suspected of organizing crime, drug trafficking, homicide, tax evasion...... and was sentenced to 1,200 years in prison without parole for life, and all personal assets were confiscated! ”

"Bowison Camorra, suspected of organizing crime, drug trafficking, homicide, tax evasion...... and was sentenced to 1,200 years in prison without parole for life, and all personal assets were confiscated! ”

"Victoria Camorra......"

Although many have been able to predict that the Camorra family, as an accomplice in the attack on the black tax bill, will definitely be used as an example to the monkeys.

But when the sentence of more than 1,200 years came out again, it still made the hearts of the people on the scene and watching the live broadcast extremely rippling.

As for the criminals who have been stirring up and attacking the black tax bill, their hearts have also been greatly affected at this moment, and they have also been greatly shaken about whether they will continue to support Pips's legislators to criticize the black tax bill.

The observers were still like this, not to mention the members of the Camorra family who were involved at this time, and they were all stupid in place as if their souls had been drained.

"Take it away!"

It wasn't until they heard these two words that the members of the Camorra family woke up from a dream, and one of the young members shouted hoarsely: "I don't accept it, you are an abusive lynching, I want to appeal!" ”

"Fake, David, you bastard, you wait for me, we Camorra family people won't let you go!"

“……”

The angry members of the Camorra family continued to abuse the court and attack David himself.

But the most unexpected thing was that one of them, Bowison, suddenly turned his head to look at the several Councillors Pipps sitting under the auditorium, and shouted: "Pips, Prinnhall, and Timothy, are you just watching us being sentenced so heavily by them?" ”

He doesn't care about pulling more people into the water, anyway, it's at this point, and everyone is going to die together!

Bowison's words were groundbreaking.

It is true that everyone present knows that the three members of the House of Pieps, who have been inextricably linked to the Camorra family because of the black tax bill, but if they know it, they know it, and if they say it in public, wouldn't it be equivalent to confessing their accomplices?

And you must know that today is not a closed trial, but in front of the whole world, the trial is open, so many audiences and so many dignitaries are watching, how did the three of them get off the stage?

"Watt, this is a tax evader named Bowison, is it implying that these Congressmen like Pipps have something to do with them?"

"The main reason why Pipps attacked the black tax bill was to gain the support of criminals, and this Camorra family is not the underground faucet of Los Angeles, they must have a relationship."

"The councillor has been involved, and now there is a good show to watch!"

The audience originally thought that this trial was over, but they didn't expect that there would be a 'dessert after dinner', which made their eyes suddenly widen and prepare to eat the next melon.

This side of the trial.

Rao is Pipps, the three of them are old foxes who have been in the political arena for many years, and they were also caught off guard by Boweison's sudden words, and they were even more red-faced, constantly scolding this Bowison in their hearts.

After settling his mind, Pips stood up and shouted: "First of all, I want to make a statement to the audience here and in front of the TV that I, Pips, a member of the parliament of a country, how can I have anything to do with this group of lawbreakers!" ”

"It's just that this group of guys is spewing blood, trying to use my status as a parliamentarian to put pressure on the court and fish in troubled waters, so don't pay too much attention to him, lest they let their tricks succeed!"

I have to say that Pips's acting skills are still old and spicy.

Despite being stared at by so many people's strange eyes, he was able to quickly stabilize his mind and bring the situation back.

"Congressman Pepps is right, we are attacking the black tax bill purely because it has many flaws, not to say that we want to be on the side of these criminals, let alone have anything to do with them, and now they are just trying to use our status as a member of parliament to make trouble!"

"Hmph, they're all dying and still spewing blood, Your Excellency Judge, drag them down quickly, so as not to talk nonsense here!"

After Pips, two councillors, Prinhall Fulbinn and Timothy Valker, also immediately stood up and scolded them in righteous words.

Here, looking at the superb acting skills of these three people, David also has to sigh, if these guys don't go into politics but go to the entertainment industry, then I'm afraid they all have a share in the Oscar winners.

"Take it away, this trial is over!"

With Nicola's words on the stage, this episode can be regarded as over, probably because of the lack of heart, the three of Pips didn't dare to stop for a moment and left quickly.

But overall, today's trial was a bit of an addiction for the audience, allowing them to understand the IRS trial process.

What has changed their minds a little is that the IRS trial has always been rumored to be very undemocratic and has no human rights, but looking at it today, it doesn't seem to be the same thing.

At least whether the Camorra family is a member or a lawyer, they all have the right to defend themselves, but under the full human and material evidence of the Western Suburbs Branch, their defense seems so pale and weak.
