Chapter 390 Soul Torture: Was It Intentional or Accidental?(1/2)
Chapter 390 Soul Torture: Is it intentional or accidental?
"The prosecutor charged the defendant with second-degree unpremeditated murder. What is the defendant's defense strategy?"
The moot court officially began, and judge Harvey Spector, a man in a suit, looked at Y's defense lawyer, the defendant's Ben Stone, and their African-American assistants.
"Not guilty!"
When the man in suit looked over, the African-American assistant stood up in amusement and expressed Edward Auster's position.
That means refusing to admit guilt!
"Prosecutor?"
Harvey, the judge in a suit, looked at Chuck.
"Your Honor, the prosecution requests to call witness No. 1."
Chuck stood up and said.
"allow!"
Harvey, the judge in a suit, tried hard to remain impartial and impartial, but he still couldn't help but have a slight curve in the corner of his mouth.
The door was pushed open.
The African-American assistant immediately looked back and saw a woman in a white coat walking in.
"what the hell?"
The African-American assistant said speechlessly.
Executive Assistant Prosecutor Ben Stone also looked over and immediately understood why his assistant had such a reaction.
They all knew that Witness No. 1 was Dr. Reitz, the attending physician of Indian origin, and that the person who came in was a woman, so as a woman, she wouldn't react that much.
But what does it mean when you wear the kind of white wig that British lawyers and judges wear on your head?
"Witness Dr. Reitz, you are a witness, not a judge or a lawyer, and this is not England. Please clarify your position!"
Harvey, the judge in a suit, complained to Donna, the female assistant of y's Indian attending physician, Dr. Reitz.
"To reply to your honor, I am respecting my position!"
Donna said solemnly: "Acting is about getting people involved in the play. The most important thing is not only acting skills, but also the moral integrity. This time the witness, Dr. Reitz, has the most important image characteristics of being an Indian man and bald."
It's hard for me to imitate the former, and I can't bear to part with this beautiful hair of the latter, so after consulting with the screenwriter of this time, Detective Chuck, I appeared in front of everyone with this look, trying my best to show the Indian-born Ritz of Witness
Image of a doctor, thank you!”
"Prosecutor, you must never go to England to litigate a lawsuit in the future!"
Harvey, who was dressed in a judge's suit, understood instantly and made a funny comment to Chuck.
Sitting in the dock with the defendant and defense attorney, Ben Stone and his African-American assistant, also understood this connotation.
The corners of bald Ben Stone's mouth twitched.
After all, they are legal elites and know that there are various opinions about their colleagues in England wearing white wigs.
One theory is that white wigs give people a sense of majesty and can show the image of judges being fair and majestic and lawyers pleading for the people.
Another theory is that wearing white wigs can hide the true faces of judges and lawyers and get rid of selfish thoughts in their hearts.
There is also a localized saying derived from Eastern culture, which is that by wearing a white wig, you can cover the eyes of God, and then you can do whatever you want to make money.
Of course, the most reliable theory is that those who can be lawyers and judges in England are over thirty years old, and the characteristics of British gentlemen are rotten and bald.
It’s not that there’s no such thing as being extremely smart in England, but if it’s in court, it’s like a big gathering of the Leonard family. At first glance, it feels like you went to the supermarket and saw boxes of eggs laid out there. Isn’t that unsightly?
.
That's why everyone wears wigs uniformly.
The truth is no longer known, and it is obvious that in Chuck's eyes, wearing a white wig was the most reliable statement.
Moreover, India is the brightest jewel in the British crown. Using the wig of a British judge can connotate both baldness and Indian origin.
It's just that if this matter spreads to the British legal community, those gentlemen will probably explode, and Chuck, who is laughing at the map cannon, will hate it to the bone.
"Your Honor, may I take the oath?"
Female assistant Donna reminded.
"Can."
Harvey, the judge in a suit, rolled his eyes at her.
So the female assistant, Donna, held the Bible in one hand and pressed the Bible in the other, and began to swear: "I swear to God, I will tell the truth and only the truth in court! I love America!"
"Witness Dr. Reitz, please don't make so much drama next time!"
The judge in a suit couldn't help it anymore and said to the female assistant Donna who imitated the curry accent and forcibly added an extra greasy "I love America".
"This is what's written in the script book."
Female assistant Donna couldn't help but look at Chuck, her eyes bright: "Does your honor mean that I can express myself freely?"
"Can't!"
Judge Harvey, who was dressed in a suit, said nothing, but Chuck refused directly: "This is the essence of tomorrow's trial!"
"..."
Judge Suits Harvey and Ben Stone were left speechless.
The female assistant Donna was very disappointed.
"Prosecutor, can we start?"
Judge Harvey in suit quickly reminded him.
He already regretted recommending his female assistant, Donna, to fill in all the roles.
That’s right!
This time, except for him, a suit lawyer who can be a judge, all the supporting roles were taken care of by Donna, who loves acting.
This is also something that can't be helped.
To be able to do this requires certain acting skills, it is best to be proficient in legal knowledge, be able to grasp the key points you want to express, and be trustworthy.
Originally, Chuck had friends who were professional actors, such as Joey Tribbioni.
But he didn't fit any of the criteria.
His acting skills are not enough, he also likes to act randomly, he is illiterate, he can't memorize his lines, and he is not strict with key words. On such a big case that attracts the attention of the whole city, Chuck has no interest in letting him show his comedy talent. After screwing up, he ends up
Make up for it in one pass and end it perfectly.
This is a comprehensive American drama world that is biased toward magical reality, not a pure comedy world, and there are not that many good things going on.
Once you screw up, you screw up, and it will be difficult or even impossible to make up for it afterwards.
Um.
The difference here is probably similar to the difference between orthodox martial arts and dark martial arts, and the difference between female warriors after they are captured.
Therefore, assistant Donna, who loves to show off her acting skills in law firm mock courts, is the most suitable candidate.
"Dr. Reitz, do you object to the use of meperidine on Susan Wardricky?"
Chuck stood up and asked.
"excuse me."
On the witness stand, female assistant Donna raised her hands and said.
"what happened again?"
Harvey, the judge in a suit, looked over unhappily.
"At this time, the prosecutor should walk up and down in front of me and the jury, especially to show the sense of oppression. He would often walk up to me and look at me with wise eyes for a long time, so as to open my heart and let me
to be honest……"
The female assistant, Donna, seems to be giving advice sincerely.
"license!"
Judge Harvey, who was dressed in a suit, immediately became happy and agreed directly, saying jokingly: "Prosecutor, please maintain some professionalism. Although there is no jury here, you should act as if there is one."
"The most important thing is to look into my eyes~"
Female assistant Donna once again pointed out the key.
Chuck walked over and looked into Donna's eyes: "Dr. Reitz, are you opposed to the use of meperidine on Susan Wardricky?"
"I recommend paracetamol."
The happiness in the female assistant Donna's eyes flashed away, and she immediately fell into the drama, her eyes moving as Chuck moved: "But Dr. Oster was very angry. He said that if I am not satisfied with the way he manages the hospital, then I should
Find a hospital to work in again."
"Thank you, doctor!"
