Chapter 1305 All Evidence Is Invalid

Li Changheng didn't think of going to the court to watch the trial in person, but Frank Abagnale promised with a smile that everyone can sit in the lounge next to the court and watch CCTV while drinking tea and snacks.

So on the day of the trial, Li Changheng, Frank and Andre, under the protection of guards, quietly entered the courtroom in two Cadillac bulletproof cars.

The legal team had already been waiting at the scene, "Boss, the rest room has been prepared for you."

Only then did Li Changheng understand that Frank got the news from his lawyer that he was able to enter the scene, so he asked himself to take credit.

After glaring at the grinning Frank, a group of people entered the courtroom through a special passage. After Barney and Blade led people to check, everyone sat in a lounge that looked pretty good.

Half an hour later, the closed-circuit television was turned on, and Willie and Turner were seen in the courtroom, both dressed in suits, sitting on the seats of the prosecution and the defendant.

As for the audience who can enter the court hearing today, except for the reporters, all of them are people from the political and business circles.

With the arrival of the judge, the trial officially began, but to everyone's surprise, Turner, who was defending himself, was sitting in the defendant's lawyer's seat with a pen and paper when Willie brought witnesses to the court for questioning. Write and draw on it.

So much so that the judge had to remind him, "Mr. Turner, I want to remind you that you have the right to question witnesses and object to what the prosecutor has said."

Turner shrugged, "It's okay, I've signed the plea agreement anyway."

This is tantamount to pleading guilty in front of the jury and everyone.

But the trial had to continue, and Willie, who thought Turner was crazy, would inevitably be a little contemptuous in the ensuing interrogation.

When the fifth witness, a police inspector from the local police and Inspector Irwin who was in charge of negotiating with Turner that day, appeared, Turner looked up and looked at the other party with a slight smile.

From the superintendent's slight expression, Li Changheng found that when he looked at Turner, there was obviously anger, even hatred.

It's a pity that Li Changheng knows that this guy is just an idiot.

There was nothing strange about Willie's questioning. It was nothing more than asking about the confession signed by Turner in front of Erwin and other police officers. It is also emphasized that the collected evidence such as pistols, bullet casings, burned shirts, and trousers all point to the murderer as Turner.

When everyone thought that Turner would let the witness leave without asking any questions like before, they didn't expect Turner to stand up directly this time.

He squinted his eyes and looked at the judge and said, "SIR, if it is said that the inspector sitting in the witness seat has an improper relationship with my wife, then I don't know if he is qualified to testify in court again."

God.

Anyone who knows a little about the law understands that those who have relatives or close relationships with the parties must avoid suspicion.

In other words, any evidence collected by Erwin at the scene is suspected of framing Turner.

According to the American and British legal system, the doubtful point belongs to the defendant.

Nothing Erwin said could be accepted by the court, and any evidence he was responsible for and participated in collecting was also invalid.

Not to mention that the confession was signed by Turner in front of Irwin. It is indeed inevitable that Turner may be forced.

So now relying on a previous neighbor, three bushes, the lawn trimmer, they heard the gunshots.

No one was seen entering or leaving Turner's house after the gunfire, let alone witnessing the testimony of Turner's murder, so there is no way to convict him.

Moreover, Turner slyly showed Erwin a mocking and proud expression, which completely angered Erwin in an instant.

He rushed out of the witness stand, threw himself on Turner, and punched him in the face.

And these punches directly let the jury, the judge and the audience understand that Turner is not talking nonsense, and that Irwin is indeed having an affair with his wife.

Willie was going crazy now.

There was a huge change in the case that was a sure thing because of one idiot.

Even if Turner's fingerprints were all on the gun, it was useless because Turner was present, and because Turner, as a negotiator, had been alone with Turner for a short time.

"Knock knock", when the scene was in chaos, the judge could only knock the gavel and announce a temporary adjournment.

Calling Willie and Turner into a separate office, the judge looked at Willie and said, "You should be very clear about the current situation. If no new evidence is found, I can only acquit Mr. Turner."

Of course Willie understood this, and thinking of the invitation letter from Simeone's law firm, he didn't intend to give up like this.

"I wish to apply for an adjournment."

The judge looked at Turner, and Turner shrugged and said with a simple and honest expression, "I ask the court to issue a restraining order against Erwin prohibiting him from approaching me."

The judge reluctantly agreed, and everyone knew that Erwin might indeed shoot Turner.

Moreover, after today's trial, Erwin will definitely become a street rat.

He will lose his job, his wife and son will leave him, and his property will be taken away by the way.

Because I have a perjury record, it will be even more difficult to find a job in the future.

It can be said that Turner ruined the rest of Irwin's life with one word.

But from the heart, no one would think that Erwin was innocent, on the contrary, most men would think that he deserved it.

The second trial ended again, and the outside world discussed the case more intensely. Surprisingly, while many people believed that Turner was the murderer, at the same time, a large proportion of people agreed that Turner was framed.

And the reason is also because Erwin steals other people's wives, which is exactly the same as the plots in many movies.

Unable to find a way to beat Francis, some turned to his relatives.

However, using the beauty trick against Turner's wife won the support of many people at once.

For a while, the support rate of Francis was declining, and the support rate of the candidates on the Donkey Party was also declining, so that a survey conducted by a survey agency showed that the support rate of Francis did not drop compared with his opponent, but rose by 4 percentage points. Reaching a 17% advantage.

Then the progress of the case once again showed a great reversal.

The pistol that was used as important evidence before was actually identified by a professional organization as a new gun that had never been fired.

Countless people who previously believed Turner was guilty, or voters who supported the Donkey Party candidate, suddenly felt cheated.

Francis' approval rating has risen sharply in just three days.

Obtain an absolute advantage with 68% to 32%.

The outcome of the election is now largely in doubt.

Of course, some people are definitely not willing to give up.

Thinking that since the gun was fine, but Turner's wife was indeed shot, four witnesses also testified that they heard gunshots.

That means the murder weapon is still hidden in Turner's house.
