Blackstone Code

The justice looked at these things seriously, and honestly, he thought they were true.

But the problem is that these things are still a bit weak as evidence.

Just as code words are not suitable for conviction, this note and newspaper cannot be used as direct and effective key evidence.

If the person who issued the order insists that he wrote down a string of meaningless numbers at random, then the court is most likely to accept their argument.

Just because there aren't any numbers that clearly point to a meaning doesn't mean it's some kind of critical piece of evidence.

Even if it does produce the results people want, what if it is a coincidence?

The judicial spirit of the federal government is to avoid the suspicion of guilt. Sometimes it takes care of many vulnerable groups, but sometimes it also protects some criminals.

But compared to its protection of vulnerable groups, even if it has some shortcomings, it doesn’t seem to be unacceptable!

The judge put the things down and signaled the prosecutor to continue presenting evidence or questioning the defendant and witnesses.

The prosecutor general also produced another piece of evidence in a timely manner, evidence of capital flows.

Since the case was suspected of the murder of the president, the bank was also very cooperative, so people were able to see the entire process of a large amount of funds flowing from the beginning to the end.

This is a very critical piece of evidence, more effective and critical than the previous two pieces of evidence that are more direct from an ordinary person’s perspective!

Every flow of funds is displayed in front of people in great detail.

"The Minister of Security provided us with an anonymous account he used for his 'work' this time. With the cooperation of the bank, we traced the two identical anonymous accounts upwards and found that the funds came from abroad. "

"But we were lucky. The bank that transferred the funds was willing to cooperate with our investigation. We followed its trajectory and found that it ultimately came from an account in China."

"An account was opened with the name...but unfortunately this gentleman passed away eleven years ago."

"His account has been in use. Over the past period of time, a large amount of 'retirement money' has been deposited into this account."

"It has lasted for eleven years, which means that Mr. ... did not enjoy the money until his death."

"But after he died, the money started showing up."

“We found the source of this pension”

"Hunterberger Private Equity Foundation!"

“During the investigation, the Huntenberg Foundation stated that someone had entrusted them with a sum of money eleven years ago, and that 35% of the income from this sum of money would be paid into seven accounts each year. "

"Three of the accounts have been closed, including this gentleman... who has been dead for eleven years, and there are still four accounts in use."

"The total funds in these four accounts exceed 760,000. We have temporarily frozen these accounts."

"When we investigated the life experience of this gentleman... we found that he worked for a wholly-owned subsidiary of Norinco before his death..."

Some people were stunned, others were silent.

The stunned people stared wide-eyed because they were shocked that this sum of money might eventually be linked to Norinco.

And those who are silent are thinking about whether the current capital flow is safe!

In the past, the federation did not have the face to ask banks from other countries to cooperate with them in investigating some fund changes, but it is different now.

The Federation has just ascended to the throne of the world's superpower, so everyone should give it some face.

In the past, capitalists' funds were transferred through third-party countries and then returned to the country. Not only could they be washed clean, but it would also make it impossible to trace the money.

Overseas funds, anonymous accounts, previous cases were basically abandoned when these contents were investigated.

It won't work if you don't give up. Domestic banks won't check it, let alone foreign countries.

But now, things are different.

During Mr. Trueman's administration, the security of "financial security" was emphasized, and both the Financial Supervisory Commission and the Security Council established corresponding institutions.

Banks can continue to maintain anonymous account mechanisms, but they must cooperate with federal law enforcement agencies if they want to investigate.

From the perspective of tracing the funds in this case, they must adjust the capital flow strategy as soon as possible to avoid some problems that may occur if they are traced.

In fact, the traceability of the funds was not "perfect" because it did not have actual "contact" with Norinco in the end.

It’s just that the account owner worked for the company during his lifetime. If you want to know where the money came from, you must find the person who entrusted the funds to the foundation eleven years ago!

But, it's hard, and if they could find it, they wouldn't be showing these simple pieces of evidence now.

The only thing that can be shown now is that this money is inseparable from Norinco!

The judge shook his head slightly. Apart from the importance of capital flow, these evidences have no practical significance.

He looked at the Minister of Security, "He said he was ordered by others to do this."

"Then these two people are here too?"

The prosecutor general understood that this was a judge, or that it was not enough to explain from a judicial perspective, so he could only ask for more witnesses and material evidence.

The prosecutor general nodded, "They are all outside the court."

"Bring one first."

Soon, a young man who looked very calm walked in.

He walked to the dock and was one of the "chief messengers" of the case.

The judge noticed the young man as he walked in from outside the court.

He was acting strange.

Most people involved in such a major case, and those arrested, will show varying degrees of fear.

The death penalty has not been abolished in many areas of the federation. In other words, as long as someone is convicted of a crime, he doesn't know whether he will die, but he will definitely die.

It's just that this young man was too calm, as if nothing had happened, calm, calm and calm.

This feeling is not quite right.

Lynch, who was in front of the TV, also discovered this problem. When he walked into the dock, he looked more like walking towards the execution platform.

Maybe he has made some preparations?

The prosecutor at the scene asked, "Do you admit to the charge that sir accused you of conspiring to order murder?"

The young man nodded in surprise, "I admit, I admit that I directed Mr.... to hire a murderer to try to kill the then federal president, Mr. Trueman."

"I did this!"

The young man was not cooperative at all during the preliminary hearing and remained silent.

Whether it was an ordinary interrogation or after taking measures, he never spoke.

He would only talk about things that had nothing to do with the case. I thought he would continue to be tough, but he suddenly confessed, which surprised everyone!

Including the prosecutor general, the justice and the security minister standing not far away.

The latter looked at his "upline" with an expression of confusion and a hint of alertness. He wanted to find something in the other person's eyes.

But unfortunately, there is nothing.

Just like the calmness he showed, there was no wavering at all.

The judge pushed up his glasses and said, "You said you admitted..."

He interrupted the judge and said, "Yes, your honor, I admit all the charges against me!"

The judge didn't know what to say. After a while, he asked, "Do you know the consequences of doing this?"

The young man nodded, as if talking about a topic that had nothing to do with him, "I will die."

The judge's job is not to ask, but to think. He can only look at the prosecutor.

The prosecutor general was also a little numb. Things were different. He looked at some materials in his hand and said, "You have never had any contact with Mr. Trueman. Why would you think of assassinating him?"

This is to ask about his "motivation". Motive is a very important factor and can even determine whether an inference or even a suspicion is established.

In his opinion, the young man had no contact with Mr. Trueman and should not have a personal vendetta. This was a lack of motivation.

As long as there is no reasonable motive, you can continue to push back.

The young man seemed to have been prepared, and there was no change in his expression. "Mr. President is committed to waging war abroad. Many people died in the war, including my friends, classmates, and relatives."

"After the war, the first lady used their status to make money while ignoring the soldiers who were disabled because of them."

"There are a lot of people who just need some help to survive, but they leave this world because they don't get the help they should be getting."

“And look at what our president and first lady are doing?”

"The president spent his whole day thinking about becoming the greatest president in the history of the Union. Even though he may have foreseen some things, he did not interfere. Instead, he sat back and watched these problems unfold."

"Our First Lady is using her status to make a lot of money in the name of helping veterans and disabled soldiers in need."

"She could spend hundreds of thousands or millions on her lover, but she rejected all applications for assistance exceeding a thousand dollars!"

"She pocketed the money that could have helped those people out of trouble, leaving despair to these people who were disabled for the country!"

"I am angry!"

"I should do something for those innocent victims, so I decided to assassinate him."

"I shared these thoughts with him, and he agreed with me."

"So I asked...sir, the Minister of Security, to help me find an overseas killer. Then I have been waiting for an opportunity."

"But it's a pity..." His expression changed slightly, "Before we took action, someone else took action."

"I heard it was a desperate father!"

"And this also proves that I am not the only person in this world who wants to do that!"

"Maybe there are many people who are preparing and implementing it, but he has preempted it."

"This is society, this is the people, this is our common idea!"

"I am willing to plead guilty!"

"I just admitted that I committed the crime you think I committed, and I think I am innocent."

"I just did what a conscientious person should do!"
