Chapter 52 A Question that Every Legal Professional Should Ponder!

We had so many opportunities to avoid this unjust case!

But we had a preconceived notion that Ding Hongfei was the real murderer!

Have we really fulfilled our duties?

The decisiveness and confidence that I have always been proud of have now blinded me!

Do we really have no responsibility in this unjust, false and wrong case?

After listening to Lin Hao's words, Luo Benchu ​​felt ashamed.

He felt ashamed to face Ding Hongfei.

He could only cover his face and think deeply, falling into deep self-reflection.

Gao De, who was standing aside, was also speechless.

His eyes, which were still firm just now, had become dim.

He sat down sadly and chose not to refute.

The presiding judge saw this and understood what Gao De meant.

Shan Guying solemnly knocked the gavel.

"Please let the two parties of the lawsuit organize themselves for a while, and in one minute, each will make a closing statement!"

One minute later.

Both parties began to make closing statements.

The prosecutor was represented by Luo Benchu, who had been thinking for a long time.

He said with a serious expression.

"This case lasted for more than two years. Now the truth has been found out. Facts have proved that this case has nothing to do with the appellant Ding Hongfei."

"As the prosecutor of this case, on behalf of the prosecutor, I recommend that Ding Hongfei be acquitted!"

"In addition, as prosecutors in this case, we know that we are responsible for the safety of life and property of the people of the country!"

"We have deeply realized the serious mistakes we made in this case!"

"We are willing to bear the corresponding legal responsibilities for this! Request the court to try us according to law!"

Luo Benchu's heartfelt words shocked the audience.

I didn't expect the prosecutor to admit his mistakes so actively.

And he also took the initiative to ask for legal punishment!

It must be said that Luo Benchu's character has won the recognition of many passers-by.

On the defense bench.

Lin Hao couldn't help but nod slightly to show his appreciation.

Isn't this equivalent to directly admitting guilt and accepting punishment?

This prosecutor Luo!

It seems to be much fairer than I thought!

You are a respectable opponent!

However, for the sake of the system task, I may have to wrong you!

"Please let the appellant make a closing statement."

After Luo Benchu ​​finished speaking, the presiding judge looked at Lin Hao and said.

Hearing this, Lin Hao stood up and said.

"I don't think I need to say more about the facts of this case."

"What I want to say is that for so many years, torture and forced confession have been repeatedly banned in our country. What is the reason for this?"

"Is it because our country does not pay enough attention to it? I don't think so."

"We legal people know that the most effective weapon against torture and forced confession is the exclusion of illegal evidence!"

"Our country has implemented the system of excluding illegal evidence for a long time, but why does this happen again and again?"

"My client Ding Hongfei is undoubtedly unfortunate. Not only was he subjected to violence by the investigators, but he was also detained for more than two years without reason!"

"But at the same time, he was lucky. His injustice was vindicated in just two years!"

"In the judicial history of our country, there are countless people who are more unfortunate than him!"

"The Zhang Bailun case 30 years ago and the Zhao Zhijiang case 20 years ago , the Hou Ergou case eighteen years ago... and so on and so forth..."

"Some of them were not able to have their cases overturned until more than ten or twenty years later, and when they were released from prison, they were no longer the same people!"

"Some of them had already been executed when their cases were overturned, and only a handful of yellow soil was left!"

"Even worse, some of them died tragically under torture during the trial!"

"This is still the injustice that has been cleared. There are countless people in this world who have been wrongly wronged and cannot clear their charges in their entire lives!"

"Are we really helpless against torture?"

"Can we only watch our people suffer such inhuman treatment?"

"I think this is a question worthy of deep thought for us legal professionals!"

"My closing statement is over, please make a judgment in accordance with the law!"

Lin Hao's impassioned speech drew spontaneous applause from the audience.

For a time, there was constant applause in the courtroom.

In the prosecutor's seat.

Luo Benchu ​​and Gao De.

With a hint of shame, they couldn't help but applaud.

Dong~~

"Silence!"

The presiding judge rang the gavel and said solemnly.

"The court will be adjourned now. The verdict will be announced in 20 minutes!"

The judges left the court and applause broke out again.

Live broadcast room.

Netizens could hardly hide their excitement.

"Lawyer Lin said it well! The problem of forced confession by torture should have been solved long ago!"

"Let us all work together to completely eliminate the cruel phenomenon of forced confession by torture!"

"Lawyer Lin is awesome! I am proud to be your fan!"

"Me too! Lawyer Lin, I want to give birth to your baby!"

"There shouldn't be any suspense about the verdict now, right? Ding Hongfei should be acquitted, right?"

"Of course! The facts are so clear, even the prosecutors have taken the initiative to admit their mistakes, what suspense can there be?"

"That's right! Any normal person would acquit him!"

"But having said that, this trial is really exciting! It seems to be no less exciting than Lawyer Lin's last one!"

"Yes, Lawyer Lin has turned the situation around time and time again, and finally turned defeat into victory and the truth was revealed!"

"Time and time again, he produced evidence that was enough to shock everyone. Now looking back, it's incredible!"

"At first, I thought it was hopeless, but I didn't expect Lawyer Lin to be able to create miracles! And he created miracles again and again!"

"Not only that, every time Lawyer Lin made an impassioned speech, the great pattern he showed was amazing! It was really exciting!"

"Really, even I, who met Lawyer Lin for the first time, had to be impressed by his style! I declare that I am a fan of Lawyer Lin!"

"Me too, netizens are not lying to me! Lawyer Lin is really as amazing as my family said! I apologize for my previous doubts!"

"Haha! Now you understand! This is the charm of me, Lawyer Lin! No one can resist it!"

"…………"

The court has not yet officially pronounced the verdict.

But netizens have already celebrated in advance.

Looking at the cheers on the barrage.

Zhang San was also full of emotion.

"Lawyer Lin really didn't disappoint us. He once again won a lawsuit that was almost impossible to win!"

"Lawyer Lin and I are both lawyers. I can say that we have a deep resonance in implementing social fairness and justice."

"The phenomenon of torture and forced confession is repeatedly banned, which is indeed worthy of deep thought by every lawyer!"

"This is the most admirable thing about Lawyer Lin. He is always brave enough to express the justice in his heart, and this is consistent."

"This is enough to show that Lawyer Lin is a person who cares about the world!"

…………

Twenty minutes have passed.

The judges returned to their seats again.

The presiding judge solemnly struck the gavel.

"This case has been tried in public by this court. The trial has now ended. Now let's start the verdict!"
