Chapter 205: The pressure of public opinion is anothe

   Chapter 205 Pressure from public opinion, another vicious judge! (Dafeng pushes more)

   (The big seal is pushed, the wind blows, the author is looking for collections, recommendations, monthly passes, subscriptions, everything…)

   Monday, pre-trial day.

   Today is the third week of April, and the pre-trial will be officially held on Monday.

   As a frequent headliner of the scandal in Dongfang City some time ago, this case has attracted the attention of everyone in the city.

   The death of Ren Xinwei, the seventh richest man in the Oriental Capital, and his current wife, Zhu Tianying, have been charged with murder.

   Just a murder crime is enough to attract attention, and it also involves the death of the city's richest man. Coupled with the exaggeration and reports of major media, the topic of this case is unprecedentedly high.

   9am.

   City court gate.

   A luxury shuttle bus was parked at the entrance of the court. When the media people stationed here saw it, they all moved and rushed up.

   The gate of the shuttle bus opened wide, and dozens of black-clothed bodyguards filed down, blocking all the media reporters from the outside.

   Afterwards, Zhu Tianying walked into the gate of the Municipal Court with a wheelchair and a drip, escorted by Hu Yaode and Jiang Fengzhen from the Blackfoot Law Firm.

  Although he was blocked by a wall of bodyguards in black, the media reporters did not understand that enough was enough.

   There are only two parties in the murder case, one is dead and the other is right in front of them, and they will not let it go.

   "Miss Zhu Tianying, do you have anything to say about the murder of Rich Ren?"

   "Miss Zhu, did you murder Rich Ren for his 60 billion fortune?"

   "The latest rumor, the investigation department has found evidence of your cheating lover. Do you have anything to explain?"

   "Ms. Zhu, did you really murder Ren Xinwei and then fake the crime scene with the intent to exonerate yourself?"

   "It is rumored that your lover cooperated with you to forge evidence, and even returned to the scene after the crime to destroy evidence..."

   "Miss Zhu..."

   The questions were raised in a sharp way, until Zhu Tianying in the wheelchair.

   Hearing this series of unceremonious questions, Zhu Tianying had to close her eyes tightly, but there were blue veins on her forehead.

   Her heart was not at peace, and she was even a little angry.

   "When I inherit Ren's Films, I will let the media block you reporters who ask questions, so that you can only be the lowest paparazzi in your life!"

   Looking at the group of people around, Zhu Tianying thought fiercely in his heart.

   "Miss Zhu, don't be nervous, I have arranged for a friend to handle the media for you, so don't worry!"

   Jiang Fengzhen lowered her head and said something in Zhu Tianying's ear to reassure her.

   The group ignored the media and walked straight into the gate of the city court, leaving only the backs of the media reporters.

  Fuck!

   Seeing that all the masters have left, and they have not caught any news, the reporters who interviewed were very unhappy.

   After a while, a well-dressed woman walked out of the city court gate.

   She looks around 35 years old, with a well-maintained figure, fair skin, curly orange-red hair, slightly convex cheekbones, deep eye sockets, and a mixed sense of facial features.

"Who is this…"

   "Isn't this Cheng Lisha?"

   "The Cheng Lisa from "Interview with Lisa"? "

   "Yes, it's her!"

   "She not only hosts interviews with Lisa, but also has many first-line programs under her name. She has served as a guest in each of Longguo's various interview columns, and is a real super-first-line media person in our East!"

   Seeing this woman appear, the reporters at the scene did not dare to make a sound, and could only whisper.

  Because of this, he is a big man in the media circle of the Oriental Metropolis, a super frontline in the press.

   "Hello fellow reporters, I'm Cheng Lisha, and I'm also Miss Zhu Tianying's press spokesperson in this case, answering questions from media friends on behalf of Miss Zhu!"

After    Cheng Lisa appeared, she immediately revealed her identity.

  Obviously, she was the one who Blackfoot invited to stand for Zhu Tianying, who was specially responsible for dealing with the media.

   "Please be patient, I will answer your questions in turn!"

   Cheng Lisa said, pointing to one of the reporters.

  She is an expert in the media world and knows how to deal with the media.

   If you don’t answer anything, the media will get impatient and ask random questions.

   But if you choose to answer one by one, they will go quiet and pray that they will be chosen.

   Even if it’s not your turn the first time, they will wait if you know you don’t show your intention to end.

  Cheng Lisa did not specify how long the interview would take. The reporters would naturally think that she would answer all questions.

  The big deal was that she had to wait for a while, she immediately shook her face and left, and there was nothing she could do about this group of reporters.

   But now...

   Facing the first reporter's question, Cheng Lisha replied very professionally:

   "For the reporter's question, I can tell you that Ms. Zhu Tianying is absolutely self-defense, and I think any woman can understand what she did!"

"Some time ago, there was a famous Fang Yunshu case in the East. I believe everyone knows that Ms. Fang was mentally abused by her ex-husband Zeng Xiang, so she made a reasonable and legitimate self-defense behavior, and my friend, Miss Zhu, did the same. in this way!"

   This answer even cites Zhang Wei’s previous defense case.

   However, when Fang Yunshu was initially accused, Cheng Lisha did not express any opinion.

   But now, after Fang Yunshu was acquitted, it has become a usable case for Cheng Lisha to defend Zhu Tianying.

   "So what happened to Zhu Tianying's derailment?"

   The second reporter's question was also expected by Cheng Lisha.

"As for this reporter's question, I can answer you affirmatively on behalf of Miss Zhu. This is all nonsense. My friend Miss Zhu has never cheated. She has always loved her husband Ren Xinwei deeply, even if The other party has done so many things that have hurt her, and she has always maintained a single-minded love for the latter."

   "Then what about the evidence found by the investigation department, it is said that they found the man over the weekend?"

"The evidence found by the investigation department is only a one-sided accusation. As for the so-called lover they found, it is just a male friend that Miss Zhu made in her life. There is no ambiguous relationship between the two parties, and Miss Zhu will never I will do anything wrong to my husband!"

   "Then how do you explain this trial? It's impossible for the District Prosecution Headquarters to accuse Ms. Zhu Tianying of murder indiscriminately, right?"

   "My friend, your question is ignorant!"

   In the face of the sudden question, Cheng Lisha laughed, "Whoever said that the local prosecutor's office must be right, I think they were instructed by 'some aspect', so they sued my friend Ms. Zhu!"

"Please think about it, if Ms. Zhu is convicted, who will get the most benefit, whether it is the shareholders of Ren's Pictures, those blood-sucking capitalists, who can take all the assets of Mr. Ren Xinwei during his lifetime for themselves. Yes, without paying a cent to his legal wife?"

"My friend Miss Zhu, she has been with Mr. Ren Xinwei for five full years, she has given her youth, everything she deserves, she deserves everything she deserves, and she is willing to fight against those powerful forces for her own benefit! "

Cheng Lisha said this, her tone gradually became excited: "Here, I appeal to all media friends to help me and Miss Zhu to speak up. Miss Zhu is an absolutely vulnerable group in this case, and what the local prosecutor's office did is Help the powerful group standing behind the scenes!"

"Whether it's my friend Miss Zhu or the deceased Mr. Ren Xinwei, they are both victims of this case. One of them has died, and the other is still charged with murder. Behind the scenes, manipulating everything and showing his fangs to a woman, those shareholders and high-level directors of Ren's Films, they are the real villains, they are the real bloodthirsty, a group of greedy wolves!"

   "Okay, that's all for my answer, today's question and answer session is over!"

  Cheng Lisa did not ask other reporters questions at the end, because her purpose had been achieved.

   She wants to package Zhu Tianying as a weak female stream, and guide the direction of public opinion to the board of directors behind Ren's Films, because it is they who are preventing Zhu Tianying from obtaining the right of inheritance.

   As for whether Zhu Tianying really killed someone, she didn't really care, because she was doing things for money.

   The media planned to continue to ask questions, but Cheng Lisha turned around and walked into the city court without giving the media any chance.

   All the media reporters could only stand there and stare blankly.

   Cheng Lisa answered two questions with a few meanings, and then said a lot of words to help Zhu Tianying, what should they do?

   has no choice but to write like this.

  Who made the other side of the case, the District Attorney's Headquarters, to stand up and speak out?

   But they are also wondering, since the District Prosecution Headquarters decided to sue Zhu Tianying, why didn't they say something.

   In fact, the answer is also simple. There are too few people from the headquarters of the District Prosecutor, and there is no manpower to deal with the media.

   City Court, the window of a preparation room.

   "Good guy, this is to use the power of the media to create momentum for Zhu Tianying!"

   "Then Lisa Cheng, I remember being very energetic in the press. Her words just now are undoubtedly guiding public opinion!"

   "Comparing Zhu Tianying to a disadvantaged group, he is most likely to gain public support, and he has also linked your local prosecutors and the evil zb family. This is to create double pressure on you both inside and outside the court!"

  Zhang Wei walked back to his seat from the window, complaining as he walked.

   He could naturally see that Zhu Tianying did not have such energy, and this move was obviously used by Blackfoot.

   Fortunately, the person who bears this pressure is finally no longer himself.

   In front of him, Li Yueqin was accompanying Mr. Ding of Ren's Film Company to conduct some simulation exercises.

   Mr. Ding will appear in court as the prosecution's first witness.

   And in the same way, Xiao Baihe is also doing a simulation exercise for Tan Yingying.

   After a weekend of investigation and counseling, Tan Yingying was finally less cowardly than before.

   Every time she got nervous, she would take a few deep breaths on the spot to cheer herself up.

   "The court session is almost here, let's go in too!"

   Zhang Wei hurriedly urged after looking at the time.

  The crowd left the preparation room and then entered the courtroom.

   Municipal Court, 1A Grand Court.

   The large court that can accommodate a hundred people seems a bit crowded at the moment.

   The hearing bench was full, and there were even a few people standing in the aisle. When the court guard was about to evict them, they all took out their press cards.

   Apparently, there were so many reporters here that the hearing bench could not be seated.

   Zhang Wei was in the front row of the hearing and saw Tie Ruyun and Lin Yumeng, and even Bai Meiqi and Bai Ruoyun, as well as many lawyers from Jincheng, many of whom did not even meet Zhang Wei.

   "Good guy, this is all for fun!"

   He knew that the younger apprentice and the old iron might be cheering for him, but everyone else probably came for Zhu Tianying's case. After all, this case was too hot.

   In addition to Jincheng Law Firm, he also saw many people from other top law firms, and even the Young Master Qin from Longteng International also had a place in the hearing table.

   "This is just a pre-trial, there are so many people here, isn't it more exaggerated on the day of the trial, the court probably won't be able to hold it?"

   Zhang Wei was really shocked when he saw this number of people.

   Fortunately, as the lawyer representing the victim's family, he can sit in the prosecution seat in front of him, so he doesn't have to worry about running out of place.

   On the defense table, Hu Yaode and Jiang Fengzhen were already in their seats, accompanied by Zhu Tianying on the left and right sides.

   As the defendant, Zhu Tianying, still looks haggard, pale complexion, with a morbid temperament, it is easy to arouse the sympathy of others.

   Zhang Wei and Tan Yingying walked into the arena under the watchful eyes of the audience and sat on the prosecution seat.

   "Where's the big troop from your local prosecutor's headquarters, why didn't you come to support you?"

  Zhang Wei glanced around and found that Zhao Chunming, who had always supported the work of his subordinates, was not present today.

   Hearing this, Tan Yingying couldn't help sighing again, "The supervisor said that I will be responsible for the case I took on myself, so he won't come to support me!"

   "Isn't this a proper double standard?"

   Zhang Wei muttered and was speechless.

   Every time he has a lawsuit against Zhang and someone, Zhao Chunming will be present, but it turns out that Zhang Wei is a teammate, so he will not come?

   Zhao Chunming's behavior really can't help but make people complain.

   "Don't be afraid, I'm here!"

   Zhang Wei can only comfort Tan Yingying, let me take you as a teammate today.

   "Hope...hope..." Tan Yingying responded weakly.

   "Stand up!"

   Just as the audience was waiting, the judge finally entered.

   "Let's welcome the respected Judge Ni Qiuping!"

   Just as the court guard announced, a cold-faced middle-aged woman, wearing a robe, walked into the courtroom.

   "No, isn't she a civil court judge?"

   Zhang Wei was surprised when he saw the person coming.

   "Ni... Ni... Judge Ni Qiuping..."

   Tan Yingying saw the other party appear, her face was bloodless, even lifeless.

   "It's actually this..."

   On the defense table, Hu Yaode frowned slightly.

   "How could it be her, the judge of the civil court is here?"

   Even Jiang Fengzhen on the side was also puzzled.

   "Before the trial begins, both the prosecution and the defense will come over. This court wants to tell you something!"

   After Ni Qiuping took his seat, he waved to the seats of both the prosecution and the defense.

  Tan Yingying was so frightened that her legs were weak, but she stepped forward with the encouragement of Zhang Wei's eyes.

   Jiang Fengzhen also came to court.

   Ni Qiuping beckoned to the two of them, Tan Yingying and Jiang Fengzhen moved forward again, and the heads of the three almost came together.

Ni Qiuping lowered his head and scolded in a low voice: "You know, because of this case, I'm about to be depressed again recently; because of the woman sitting on the defense table, our city court is also under great pressure. Especially Those **** male judges, they say that the public opinion outside is ferocious, and they are all talking about the male rich man oppressing a weak woman, and the woman is the victim, so they will leave this **** case to me, the only qualified female judge!"

"I thought about refusing at the time, but the first judge pulled me into the office and trained me for 30 minutes. Do you know how the old man trained me? You know you have to endure a slaughterhouse pig howling in your ear 30 Minutes, how much patience and perseverance does it take, do you two know?"

  Tan Yingying and Jiang Fengzhen looked at each other and both shook their heads.

"Well, I hope you all give me some rules in court, this is my mother's court, if you dare to do anything unruly, I will let you experience that feeling; I promise you, this will be yours Horror that I don't want to remember in my life!"

  Ni Qiuping pointed at Tan Yingying and Jiang Fengzhen, and warned.

  Jiang Fengzhen was fine. After barely smiling, she nodded.

  Tan Yingying was so frightened that she forgot to speak, and she didn't know how she got back to the prosecution seat.

   "Okay, let's each declare the court's defense!"

  Ni Qiuping struck the hammer and began to preside over the pre-trial process.

  Tan Yingying got up first, suppressing the fear in her heart, and her lips trembled: "Your Majesty... the prosecution... the prosecution believes that... the defendant Zhu Tianying... has the fact of murdering the deceased Ren Xinwei in this case..."

   "...so the prosecution's claim is murder...life imprisonment."

   Originally a few short sentences, but because of the pressure from the judge, Tan Yingying said it for 2 minutes before ending.

  Ni Qiuping sat on the judgment seat, almost yawning.

   "Defense?"

   "Your Majesty, our client, Ms. Zhu Tianying, was wronged. She never thought of murdering her husband Ren Xinwei. What she did was just self-defense. We advocate the defense of innocence, and Ms. Zhu Tianying should be acquitted!"

   "Okay, this court knows the arguments of both parties!"

  Ni Qiuping confirmed it with a hammer, and then nodded to Tingwei, "Let the candidate jury come in, hurry up!"

   As the candidate jurors entered the courtroom, the atmosphere gradually became solemn.

   "Zhang Wei, what do you do next?" Tan Yingying came over and asked in a low voice.

   "Don't worry, you are the prosecution, let the defense ask questions first!"

   Zhang Wei is still calm, anyway, this time we can look at the defense's methods first.

   Just after all the candidates for the jury were seated, Jiang Fengzhen got up and came to the jury seat.

"Hello fellow jurors, I believe you have all heard of my client's name more or less, plus the recent headlines of public opinion have been reporting this case at length. I would like to ask among you, How many people can be unaffected by public opinion and achieve true fairness and justice?"

After    Jiang Fengzhen asked, no one on the jury responded.

   This question is really hard to answer.

   But this is the result Jiang Fengzhen wanted, she looked at the trial seat:

"Your Majesty, the defense requests the court to consider the situation of our client and the guidance of public opinion. I implore you to implement the necessary "isolation system" for the jury of this trial to prevent the guidance and interference of public opinion from all over the world, so that Court verdict is affected! "

   Hearing Jiang Fengzhen's words, Ni Qiuping was not surprised.

   But at the prosecution table, Zhang Wei frowned.

   Good guy, the defense's first move is actually like this!
