Beauty Comprehensive 1999

Chapter 223 Unexpected twists and turns

After reading the news report, Dean then said with a dissatisfied look:

"Why is there no report on the gas station? Did the victims die in vain? These media and officials know how to cover the lid all day long..."

In fact, Xie Zihao also understands the government's approach relatively well.

After all, in such a major case involving at least dozens of newly discovered victims, it is better to hide some of the contents. Otherwise, if it is exposed, it will not only cause panic among the people, lead to their dissatisfaction with the current government, but also cause an economic decline.

Any rational government official will not let it go unchecked if it affects the federation's international reputation and other consequences.

On the contrary, Shan Thu was much calmer than his brother and persuaded:

"Dean, don't talk nonsense when you go to the bar, otherwise you will attract people from the government and cause trouble."

Dean was about to refute his younger brother, engaging in a daily quarrel between brothers who fall in love with each other, when Xie Zihao's phone suddenly rang, and the caller ID was Carmen, the assistant to Congressman Mendoza.

"Hello Carmen, do you have any good news for me?"

"...Okay, I understand, bye!"

After he hung up the phone, he smiled and said to Dean:

"Shan Thu is right, Dean, you should be satisfied. After nearly a month of delay, this case has finally come to an end. Carmen called me to inform me that the bonus will be coming soon. In fact, this is still fast. It is only the first trial now.

We are preparing to go to trial. If the guy behind him appeals, there will probably be a second trial waiting for him!"

"Under normal circumstances, without the role played by Congressman Mendoza, we probably wouldn't be able to get a penny in bonus until the case is completely closed."

Jessica also answered:

"It seems that the devil's defense lawyer is very skillful. Usually the prosecutors and the police hope to close the case as soon as possible in this kind of case. But if the defendant's lawyer has outstanding ability and rich experience, he can completely speed up the process and complete a series of processes such as evidence and trial.

It took a long time.”

"Such wrangling will exhaust both the judge and the jurors physically and mentally, causing them to make abnormal judgments and possibly even change jurors midway!"

"The prosecutors are also likely to be afraid that something might happen if the case is delayed for too long. In order to close the case as soon as possible, they reach a compromise with the criminals and plead guilty in exchange for a lighter sentence."

She is quite familiar with this process because her father is a lawyer, just a commercial lawyer.

Dean shouted in disbelief when he heard this:

"No way? This guy obviously killed so many people and there is so much evidence. How can he be given a light sentence?"

Shan Thu also felt dissatisfied, but still said helplessly:

"No way, this is the law of our country. Even if a wealthy criminal is convicted and imprisoned, he will often have a comfortable prison room waiting for him. It is normal for some people to deliberately disrupt judicial trials for reputation and certain interests.

.”

Dean couldn't help but curse after hearing this, and his cheeks bulged with anger, becoming more and more like a hamster.

As a hunter who was trained since childhood, he had to stumble through elementary school due to his wandering life. He left school before graduating from middle school. He is not the kind of academic master, so he may not be called illiterate, but he is as good as college students.

Like most people at the bottom of the federation, they will have a headache when they go to the supermarket to check out and calculate simple four arithmetic operations.

There are also many people who believe the earth is flat.

Therefore, Dean doesn't know much about these rules in society, or he is very poor. On the contrary, he has experienced a lot of struggling at the bottom of society over the years. In that environment, he will definitely fare better than others.

.

The younger brother Shan Thu's situation is much better. He has shown the nature of being an academic master since he was a child. Even though he changed schools frequently, he successfully completed high school courses and successfully entered a prestigious school.

If the trial of Chani Cisse's case does not go smoothly, that is something Xie Zihao does not want to see. But at this time, he has no intention of intervening in the trial of the Scarecrow Killer. Of course, if the final result is not satisfactory, then

He wouldn't mind a trip to Texas either.

Yes, although it is well known that the Scarecrow Killer was wanted for committing crimes in the southern states of Alabama and Mississippi, this time the trial of Chaney Cisse was held in the next door state of Texas.

Over there, Jessica also comforted her boyfriend’s eldest brother and said:

"Don't worry, Dean. Although Chani Cisse's lawyer seems to be trying to make some small moves, probably because he wants to use this case to become famous, the news about this case has said that it will be tried in Texas.

, if there is no accident, this damn devil will most likely be dead!"

Dean turned from anger to joy and asked:

"How do you say it? Why can the perverted devil be dead if it is tried in Texas?"

Jessica explained:

"Putting the prisoner on trial in Texas, a tougher state, I guess is the result of joint discussions between the police, prosecutors and the investigation bureau in several places involved in the case, in order to try to bring Chani Cisse to justice.

This demon condemns death."

As she spoke, she pointed at the crowd of people cheering and crying in the TV camera.

"Obviously this move has been approved by all the victims' families and the media."

"Although Alabama and Mississippi are among the federal states that retain the death penalty, they have not actually implemented it for more than ten years. Basically, the death penalty exists in name only. In this case, you want to ask the judge to impose the death penalty.

The possibility is not high. Most likely it will be another one or two hundred years in prison, which is actually a life sentence in disguise, but that is likely to arouse the victims' families and trigger a new whirlpool of public opinion."

Xie Zihao and others also nodded in agreement after hearing this. Because of Chani Cisse's cruelty to the victims, many of these family members wanted to eat the blood and flesh of this demon alive. Thinking on their heels, one can imagine that the family members would not be able to accept that at all.

kind of result.

Jessica continued:

"Texas, which is next door to the two states, is different. As a large southern state, Texas has always been known for its toughness. At the same time, because it was one of the last states to be incorporated into the union, Texas has always been at a distance from the federal government, and even often competes with the federal government.

The Special Administrative Region is playing the opposite tune. Texas is also one of the states that imposes the most death sentences. If it is tried here, if there are no accidents, there is a high chance that Chani Cisse will be sentenced to death!"

"It just so happens that although Chany Cisse, this perverted serial killer, is wanted mainly for committing crimes in Alabama and Mississippi, he has also committed at least a few murders in Texas, and there are also several victims in those two states.

One is from Texas, which gives Texas the legal authority to judge this devil on earth."

Jessica's explanation alleviated everyone's previous dissatisfaction.

Melinda even said: "I'm looking forward to seeing what the devil Chani Cisse's face will look like when he is sentenced to death."

Xie Zihao smiled and said: "Don't worry, no matter how stubborn a person is, he will always have his own fear in the face of death. Of course, if he is the kind of stubborn person who is really not afraid of death, I will let his soul know how to go to hell."

This is already the lightest punishment!”

Regarding Xie Zihao's guarantee, no one took it too seriously when they heard it, but thinking about Xie Zihao's magic, they couldn't help but have a little expectation. Maybe they could really punish the devil's soul?

It's a pity that no one present expected that some things would not go as planned, and the case of the Scarecrow Killer was destined to be full of twists and turns.
