Blackstone Code

1326 Select

In the room of the police station, the young lawyer looked at the father and son in front of him. Just as he was about to say something, he lowered his head and flipped through the file.

He couldn't bear it, but this was his job.

According to the guidance given by the special task force of the Ministry of Justice and the opinions in the "New Federal Code of Nagalil (Trial)", robbery and theft in Nagalil with a case value of more than 1,000 yuan can be sentenced to death.

There are four thousand dollars here, and if the local police department wants to pursue the amount, they can put this family on trial for death.

The sense of responsibility as a lawyer came into play at this moment. After all, he was still young. In the lawyer industry, in his thirties, he might have just finished his internship in a firm.

They are just newbies!

"The new bill contains provisions on the crime value of robbery. The goods you stole are enough to sentence four of you to death..."

Akon's mind went blank again. He subconsciously looked at his father. The middle-aged man also looked shocked.

They just entered some stores with others and took back the things inside. Why... were they about to die?

"Is there a mistake?", the middle-aged man mustered up the courage to ask.

His body had begun to tremble slightly, and the smile on his face was very forced, and he could no longer maintain it by the time he finished speaking.

The young lawyer sighed and looked at the father and son again, "The worst-case scenario is that the judge thinks you are an accomplice, and both of you will be sentenced to death."

"But because your relationship is very special, I have another proposal here. It can only be said that in the worst case scenario, I can find the only proposal that is better than the ordinary result."

The two of them seemed to be grasping at the last straw, humbly arching their backs and bending over, listening to the lawyer's words.

"Because you are father and son, one of you can take full responsibility for all the crimes, so we can try to convince the judge to just give you the death penalty."

"This is the best result I can think of."

"You can consider for yourselves whether to die together or who will bear all the responsibilities."

The lawyer put the files away again and said, "The trial will begin the day after tomorrow. We will meet again before the trial. You can go back now."

The police held the iron rope and brought the two soulless empty shells back to the prison area.

The middle-aged man pressed against the wall and slowly slid down.

He was not sitting, but fell directly to the ground.

There were cries and curses all around, and people were beating the iron cage in the prison area frantically.

Two police officers soon came, and the guy who was beating the iron cage and asking the police to let him out was escorted to the middle corridor of the prison area, and then shot him directly in the head.

The blood on the ground and the faint fishy smell made everyone quiet down. The silence lasted for a minute or two, and then people started crying sadly again...

Aken was also crying. He didn't understand. He just went to get some things back with everyone. Why did it evolve to this point?

He has understood what the lawyer said just now. He and his father have no choice. They need to pay for their mistakes!

Looking at his father's appearance, Akon blamed himself. In fact, his father's involvement only happened two days ago.

He was actually implicated by Akon, but the judges didn't care about that.

If you have enough stolen goods in your house to sentence everyone, then someone will definitely die.

As the lawyer said, the only choice now is who to die.

Death, this word is actually very far away from a sixteen-year-old boy.

Last night, he was still dreaming about working hard to make money in the future, immigrating to the Federation with his family, and living a happy life.

But today, he had to face the heavy decision of choosing who to let die.

He kept wiping his tears, and overnight, everything about his future was shattered.

He looked at his father, self-blame and regret rolling in his heart. He opened his mouth and wanted to say, "I'll take the responsibility for all this," but for some reason, he just couldn't say it.

The larynx, the larynx, everything related to speaking, were preventing him from speaking.

This is the case for most people here. They all face the choice of severe punishment or death penalty. It's just that compared to the father and son who are lucky enough to survive, they seem to be less lucky.

In fact, some of these people's families were brothers, and both father and son were arrested.

It's a pity that some of them are not locked up in a police station, which means that each of them must bear all the blame at once.

This may make the law seem unfair.

But giving them trial and death penalty at this time may be the greatest justice to those victims.

There is no such thing as a ridiculous thing that should be forgiven by society, the people, and the law when someone does something wrong, commits a crime, or hurts others, right?

There was silence all night, and Akon didn't fall asleep until dawn, but he woke up again before noon.

Youth gave him almost inexhaustible physical strength and energy. He looked at his father, who was sitting against the wall as if he had lost his vitality. After a long silence, he said, "I'm going to plead guilty..."

The middle-aged man's gray eyes suddenly showed surprise. He looked at Akon and said nothing, but his vivid face made everyone realize that he was "alive".

Yes, he lived.

He was dead yesterday, but he came to life today after Akon's words.

The middle-aged man stood up and hugged him, but no one said anything.

Leaning on his father's chest, Akon heard a long sigh.

Two days passed quickly, and the area used to temporarily hold prisoners in the police station was full of people. It was said that prisons were being built everywhere.

According to some federal observers, in the next three years, although the crime rate in the new federation of Nagaril will drop significantly, the number of criminal cases will not drop too much.

To put it simply, because the cost of crime has become higher, ordinary people have begun to become wary of crime. They will refuse to consider crime as an option because they cannot bear the consequences of crime.

But for some people who have already committed crimes, or who have no other choice but to commit crimes, they have already borne a huge cost. Even if they stop committing crimes immediately, they still need to pay a high price.

In this case, many criminals will most likely choose to continue committing crimes.

The entire process from no legal system to the rule of law will last at least three to five years, so it is not too late to build prisons everywhere. It can only be said that it is just the right time.

In two years, the fate of many people and families was decided in these two days.

Two days later, Akon and his father met the lawyer again, with less than thirty minutes left in court.

Because there were too many cases and the evidence was conclusive, the rules of a fast-track court were adopted without a jury.

Of course, to the people of the Federation, the Nagarils are not necessarily considered evolutionarily normal humans, and they certainly do not enjoy the rights that only humans enjoy, which is fair.

The trial process of the expedited court is simply to present evidence, and then the judge will impose a sentence according to the standards.

Of course, the judge also has enough power, which is why the husband of Kris (the second-place bowling lady) is willing to let his wife use sexual bribes everywhere to secure his position.

The power of judges in fast-track courts is magnified to the extreme, and they can decide whether a person needs to do

This involves the most interesting part of federal justice. As long as there is sufficient evidence, the judge cannot deny that a person is guilty, but guilt does not mean a sentence.

You see, this reflects the spirit of federal freedom and fairness. Yes, guilt does not necessarily require a sentence, because the judge feels it is not necessary.

This situation often arises in expedited courts.

For example, a single mother who drove dangerously committed a crime, but the judge felt that her crime could be forgiven, so she waived all penalties.

For example, a college student who was suspected of beating an immigrant did indeed do so. From a judicial perspective, he committed a crime, but the judge believed that he did the right thing, so he did not have to serve a sentence.

It is up to the judge to decide how to judge in the fast-track court. Now that there are so many cases in Nagaril waiting for judgment, the only option is to use the fast-track court.

Standing in front of the father and son again, the young lawyer was a little more mature than last time.

In the past two days, he has seen more cases that can be found in federal judicial textbooks. He is no longer like he was at the beginning, and still has some extra sensibility.

"I remember you, have you made your choice?" He flipped through the file twice and then looked at the middle-aged man.

In his opinion, in this situation, middle-aged people should often give their children a chance to survive. After all... he is an adult, and he should bear more responsibilities!

The young lawyer thought so, but it was Aken who stood up.

Aken nodded, "I will plead guilty to all charges. He is innocent."

The lawyer didn't react for a moment, "Did you make a mistake? Do you want to plead guilty to all charges?"

He emphasized, "You have to know that if you bear all the charges, they will let you die!"

The lawyer looked at the middle-aged man angrily, and the middle-aged man looked elsewhere with evasive eyes.

Facing the father and son, the lawyer sneered twice, shook his head and sighed, and took the file in his hand, "Okay, if this is your choice."

Then, after waiting for more than ten minutes, it was their turn to go to trial.

The court was not big, and there were not many people watching, but there were a lot of media.

The whole world is paying attention to the reform of the new federal legal system and rule of law in Nagaril, and they are very concerned about what happens here.

Little did the father and son know that they would make an unexpected choice in front of the whole world.
