Chapter 477 Good words are hard to persuade, damn ghost!(2/2)
This is not only the difference between 4 years in prison and 25 years or even forever in prison, he has not yet officially become a naturalized U.S. citizen. If he chooses 4 years in prison, with this stain, he may never be able to become a U.S. citizen.
It doesn't matter how you commit crimes after naturalization. After all, this is the country's freedom.
But before naturalization, you always have to be able to live up to your reputation.
Has all his hard work been in vain for all these years? Has he been knocked back to his original shape?
No!
There is still hope for him!
Although Detective Chuck's analysis subverts the three views and makes sense, Detective Chuck is, after all, a consultant to the police and the prosecutor, and will not really stand on his side and consider him.
Yes!
This is just another intimidation tactic.
The purpose is to force him to compromise and plead guilty!
So insidious!
He was almost fooled!
He is not guilty!
"I'm not guilty!"
The defendant's jewelry store owner suddenly looked angry when he looked at Chuck.
"Yeah, only criminals go to jail."
When the defense lawyer saw his client insisting on his plea of not guilty again, he immediately answered the call, fearing that his client would be affected by Chuck.
no way!
He doesn't care if his client goes to jail!
He only cares about the impact of this case.
How much money does the person involved have?
And the various wealthy groups attracted by the public opinion storm will be of great benefit to him in the future and to him now.
For example, as the public opinion about the case has fermented, the National Rifle Association has contacted them and is willing to provide them with the greatest help. It is ready to build his client into a model of gun-carrying heroes and further publicize that "everyone has a gun so that everything will not be chaotic."
The fear is the concept of insufficient firepower, criminals upgrade their weapons, and good guys have to double their weapons to make a lot of money.
The resources and money the National Rifle Association has are massive.
If you let him miss a little bit, it will be of great use.
This is the real big deal.
The premise of all this is that his client needs to insist on a not guilty plea.
If you plead guilty and make a plea bargain, who would be willing to deal with a nobody case like yours that has no special features and highlights.
So he, the defense lawyer, knew that Detective Chuck's words hit the nail on the head and it was almost the final outcome, but he still wanted his client to take a gamble.
If the bet is successful, he wins.
If the bet fails, the person involved will only be imprisoned for life, and he will have nothing to lose.
That is to say, Detective Chuck is a bit scary, and he doesn't dare to do anything too obvious, otherwise he won't even let him say anything and just drags his client away.
It's fine now. After several struggles, my client decided to insist on a not guilty plea.
Then he wasn't instigating it with bad intentions, and he wasn't afraid that the detective Chuck would reveal his thoughts.
"What do you call shooting and killing people in the streets?"
Executive Assistant Prosecutor Ben Stone frowned at the defense attorney.
He did not interrupt Chuck immediately, and implicitly acknowledged that Chuck had gone over his shoulder and directly offered the defendant a plea deal that he was actually unwilling to give. This was already done for Chuck's sake.
According to his original intention, he wanted to strictly prosecute the defendant for second-degree murder!
Because various evidences show that the armed robber was on the run at the time, and even drove away, there was no need to chase him to the end.
Whether according to the law or according to the standards of normal people, this is standard excessive defense and second-degree murder.
That is, Chuck took the initiative to come and speak.
Otherwise, for first-degree manslaughter, between 4 and 12 years, is it still recommended that the minimum sentence be 4 years?
Beautiful thought!
"American hero!"
The defense attorney laughed: "Once they entered the store, my client had the right to shoot."
"The deceased's car was 80 yards away from the store. It was impossible for the seriously injured deceased to survive in the car."
The African-American assistant prosecutor reminded.
"As long as one person on the jury is a shop owner and can empathize with the situation, the best result you can get is a mistrial!"
The defense attorney showed no sign of weakness.
He really thinks he can win!
At least before Detective Chuck intervenes, there is a good chance of winning!
"Are you going to block your client's future on that?"
Executive Assistant Prosecutor Ben Stone glanced at the defendant's jewelry store owner, which was both a question to the defense attorney and a reminder to the defendant: "Mr. Kutas, spent 4 years in Bedford Prison, and in Antica."
25 years in prison, believe me, you would prefer the former."
The sentence is one aspect, and the prison where you are sentenced to is also an important consideration.
After all, the highest-level prison for rich people can transform their mansion into a prison, go to work during the day, and come back to 'jail' at night.
What is the punitive significance of this kind of life sentence?
"You want me to admit that I was wrong to defend myself?"
The defendant jewelry store owner glanced at Executive Assistant Prosecutor Ben Stone and Chuck: "I don't want to make a deal! I don't want to sit in jail for a day!"
When the defense lawyer opened his mouth and tried to interrupt him, he first interrupted the defense lawyer loudly and continued to say loudly: "I have heard enough of what you said, I am innocent! I know similar cases, Los Angeles, San Francisco, Baltimore, like
I, who defended myself, did not go to jail in the end! Ask anyone on the street, what I did was right! No one protected us!"
Having said this, he glanced at Chuck: "Originally, I thought there would be someone on our side, but now it seems there is no one at all! They are all the same!"
"Mr. Kutas..."
Detective Amy Santiago wanted to say, 'Chuck is really on your side for your own good,' but he could only watch as the defendant jewelry store owner slammed the door angrily and left.
"Chuck, what do we do now?"
Detective Amy Santiago said with a wry smile.
"Continue to hurt your heart and slap your face!"
Chuck was unmoved.
Originally, he thought that the defendant was a member of the public who was being oppressed and resisted, so he took the initiative to help out for the sake of Detective Amy Santiago.
But now it's obvious that good words can't persuade a damn ghost.
They couldn't understand the essence of America, so they went to great lengths to immigrate here. They wanted to be Americans and realize the American dream. But now they are faced with reality, and they still don't want to wake up from the dream, and they can't tell the difference between good and good.
That’s what you deserve!
