Blackstone Code

There are things that can be done but not said. grind

Just like this moment.

Lynch saw something in Senator Langdon's mind, and that his son was really being wild.

In fact, for an "upper-class person", killing someone he hates is the stupidest thing to do!

If the same thing happened to Lynch, no, even if it happened to Senator Langdon, he would have a way to make this bastard suffer for a lifetime without dying!

Let him have no job, let him wander, let him be beaten every day, let him...

For people with resources, there are too many ways to make a low-level person's life worse than death, but that young man chose the stupidest method.

Not only did he get Senator Langdon into trouble now, but he also caused himself to lose everything! grind

Lynch coughed lightly, "We want to teach young people a lesson. We don't need to completely absolve them of their crimes. Let them stay in it for a few years and reflect on themselves. What do you think we should do?"

The lawyer was stunned for a moment. He wasn't sure why their demands changed. Two million shouldn't be too much for these people.

Did you ask too high a price?

He doesn't think so.

The price of two million is not high at all for the complete acquittal of a murderer who has a high probability of being sentenced to death.

Some capitalists pay two to three million in legal fees for a single divorce case, not to mention that a person died in the case?

But he didn't want to think too much. This was not his job. He thought about it for a while and gave a number - Li

"Three hundred and fifty thousand is enough, Mr. Lynch, Mr. Langdon."

"If there are no problems with this information, this was completely a killing of passion. I noticed that this girl knew the suspect. We can make a hypothesis. Is it possible that she...had an affair with other people behind the suspect's back?"

"Maybe this girl stepped on many boats, and there was a suspect among them."

"But she was too careless and was discovered by the suspect. Then they faced off, had a conflict, and finally took action!"

"It's not even certain that the deceased made the first move. Maybe the girl can tell some 'truths' to support these views."

Senator Langdon nodded in agreement, as if that could indeed be said.

Seeing Senator Langdon nod, the lawyer continued, "Such a murder of passion is established. Murder of passion is different from murder. It is an unpremeditated and horrific consequence caused when emotions are out of control." Li

"He does not need to bear full responsibility. He is a person with partial criminal capacity. Coupled with the support from the female victim's testimony, how many days do you think he should reflect inside?"

A sudden rhetorical question also makes people feel the ability of the lawyer and the law firm behind him. They can even control the results in advance!

If someone says money is not everything, then he must not have money!

Senator Langdon thought for a moment, "Five years?"

The lawyer nodded, "Then we will make our best efforts with a goal of five years?"

Senator Langdon glanced at Lynch, who frowned, thought for a moment, and looked at the lawyer, "We need to talk. There is a bar next to it. Maybe you will be interested in the wine inside."

The lawyer was not dissatisfied with being "dismissed" at all. He immediately stood up and bowed slightly, "It's like this, Mr. Lynch. I'm very obsessed with drinks. Please excuse me."

Then he nodded to Senator Langdon and left.

Lynch lowered his voice slightly, "The media is paying close attention to this matter. We can't let him look too relaxed, do you understand what I mean?"

"If he kills someone and only gets a three-year or five-year sentence, no matter what we do or not, people will think that you used your power to prevent him from getting the end he deserves."

"Landon, have we known each other for ten years?"

Senator Langdon nodded. He wanted to smoke, but found that his cigarette case was empty.

Lynch gave him one, he took two puffs and said, "It's been thirteen years."

When they first met, the "escape president" had not yet stepped down, and the Great Depression was breaking out, and then quietly stepped down more than a year later. grind

Then the former president came to power. At this time, when the former president came to power, he saw the report of Mayor Langdon at the time, quoted Lynch, and got to know Lynch.

After that time, the former president served for six years, followed by President Trueman. It has actually been thirteen years now, and Lynch is thirty-two years old.

"So fast..." Lin Qi sighed with emotion. Whether it is here or in another world, time is always the most ruthless but inescapable.

He nodded noncommittally, "You are only in your fifties. If nothing else happens, you still have at least fifteen years of political career and about five years of declining influence."

"If you have a child next year, he will be able to start inheriting all your things when he is twenty years old."

"But if we make this come out too easy, you might not be able to do it as long."

Politics is very cruel. Even if Senator Langdon has his back to Lynch, there will still be people attacking him. grind

For capitalists, it doesn't matter who becomes the slave of money, as long as someone does it.

Including Senator Langdon, if he is attacked too hard, Lynch can't handle it, and Lynch can only abandon him to save the York Gang.

Then find a new core figure. He may not be as useful as Senator Langdon, but he can maintain it.

Lynch would not confront public opinion head-on for Senator Langdon's son. This is not what a qualified businessman should do.

He then added, "And sometimes you don't necessarily need to stay in there for too long. If you are sentenced to ten years and you come out after three to five years, there will be no problem."

"Can people still refuse a repentant and confused soul to find its way again?"

Senator Langdon hesitated for a long time, and finally put out the cigarette butt and nodded, "Actually, I also have such an idea, but I haven't made up my mind yet."

"This incident is actually a reminder to me. Fortunately, none of this is beyond my ability, and it also makes me understand a truth."

"When it's time to let go, don't hesitate!"

Soon the lawyer tasted some fine wine and came back with some Xunran, and after a brief discussion, they discussed.

Senator Langdon lowered his demands a lot. His only demands were that his son should not die and not be imprisoned for more than twenty years. Everything else should be based on evidence.

As long as he didn't die, it was too easy, and the lawyer was embarrassed to charge too much in legal fees. The final settlement was two hundred thousand.

150,000 in legal fees, and the rest is some simple public relations expenses.

That afternoon, Senator Langdon held a personal briefing at the hotel, and almost the vast majority of the media were present. grind

In front of the camera, Senator Langdon looked haggard as if he hadn't rested for several days, and his hair was a little messy.

The stimulating light from the flash made him squint his eyes, and he was no longer as calm as before.

His voice seemed to be hoarse, "I'm sorry, but actually I don't want to take up too many public resources."

"But some irresponsible reporters and media are smearing me and the federal judicial process. I have to stand up at this time."

"I know many people will be wondering whether I will use some power and some connections to get my son acquitted as much as possible."

"Don't rush to deny it. I know many of you think so. That's why I want to talk to you today."

"I hope you will use the camera to faithfully record every word I say. It will become important evidence for you to compare the results after the case is over."

"I, Langdon, Congressman, hereby solemnly assure everyone that I will never try to manipulate the results or change the outcome in any way."

"On the contrary, I believe in the fairness of justice. No matter what the result is, I will accept it!"

"The death penalty, jail time, or anything else, these are the consequences he deserves. I will not pay for him, nor will I erase these for him."

"All of you can supervise me and pay attention to this matter."

"As a father, I have failed in my duty and I would like to apologize to the families of the injured and the deceased."

"I also want to apologize to everyone in society who paid attention to this matter. He set a very bad example."

"The only thing I can do now is to leave everything to the court, to you, and let you decide his final outcome..." Li

The whole meeting didn't last long, just over ten minutes. After answering a few unhelpful questions, Senator Langdon left citing physical discomfort.

However, these news are rapidly spreading in society.

Some people said that he was acting, and they swore that in the end his son might only be convicted of manslaughter or something else, and he would be released from prison after two or three years.

Others said he would clear his son's name, even if he did kill someone.

As for believing what Senator Langdon said, yes, but not much. This is also the consensus view.

They don't think that the congressman will really let his son go to jail for a long time or be sentenced to death.

Even if I alienate him in the future, I will find a way to save him. grind

The public opinion in the society is vigorous and has almost become a super hot topic.

Two days later, the image of Senator Langdon with facial injuries and his head wrapped in gauze appeared in newspapers, once again becoming the focus of public opinion.

But this time, people's views and attitudes towards him seem to have improved a lot.

His wife came over from her hometown, and according to neighbors and people from the community service company, they had a heated argument and got physical.

Senator Langdon's head was smashed by his wife with a vase, and his face was cut...

Suddenly some people have a better sense of him. Maybe these people also have a similar wife, and only they can feel this kind of pain or even grievance!

At the same time, it also makes one believe that he may actually intend to stay out of it. grind

Some praised his decision for upholding the dignity of the law.

But some people think that there is something wrong with his character. Even if a child makes a mistake, parents should help him.

The bottom society is like this. People's positions are wavering and they have no understanding or ideas of their own.

What others say is what they say!

No wonder some people say they are stupid, this is not unreasonable!
