Start with a Cat and Mouse Game

Chapter 1302: limp

Ordinary people don't understand Francis' actions, and some people even think that he is trying to restore his negative impression in Li Changheng's heart.

But for those old foxes who have been in the Senate and House of Representatives for many years, or even twenty or thirty years, he clearly told the outside world that his benefactor and biggest supporter did not give up on himself.

Afterwards, Li Changheng's legal team notified Francis that his father's matter had made considerable progress.

Changing murder to manslaughter, or murder with passion, although he still has to go to jail, the impact on him is worlds apart.

In the 1980s, many young people in the United States who experienced the hippie wave in the 1960s and 1970s became middle-aged parents.

In addition, people over the age of 5 and 60 are inherently conservative and can be very concerned about their wives cheating.

This gives the lawyer the confidence to fight the lawsuit with murder of passion.

It's a pity that Turner Wood didn't know what he was thinking. He kept emphasizing that he didn't need a defense lawyer.

Of course, he did not refuse the help of the legal team, which inevitably made the legal team more convinced that he had any cards.

After reporting the matter to Li Changheng, and then listening to the opinions of the legal team, Li Changheng, after confirming that Turner can get rid of the charge of intentional murder, inevitably studied the collected information again.

For one night, he actually agreed to the idea of ​​letting Turner defend himself.

After Francis learned of this, the number of phone calls increased again.

He even begged him to return to the United States several times, but Li Changheng said that your father is not guilty in law, which immediately shocked him and Claire, and at the same time, he was inexplicably relieved.

As the most intelligent person recognized by the media, Li Changheng’s words to many people are the same as children who rarely doubt their mother’s words—

A week later, outside the courtroom, Turner Wood, dressed in a decent suit, got out of the car accompanied by a lawyer, and was immediately blocked by cameras and microphones, unable to move around.

To the disappointment of the reporters, even the lawyers who accompanied him did not speak when Bittner spoke.

On the contrary, Willie Charlton, the prosecutor, looked confident and answered many questions from reporters.

After receiving the invitation from the New York law firm, Willie wrote a letter of resignation the next day, but resignation also required handing over the work in hand.

This delay lasted for a few days, and then when he got off work yesterday afternoon, the inspector in charge suddenly called him to the office.

The inspector who was determined to pick up Turner Wood before accidentally fell down the stairs of the office building at noon today.

The hospital has confirmed that the other party's lower leg shows signs of fracture, and it is obviously impossible to attend tomorrow's court hearing.

And the other prosecutors had too many cases to take over the case temporarily, so they wanted Willie to settle Turner's case before leaving.

Willie is not stupid, this is clearly a trap.

Even the lawyer who broke his leg at noon probably fell by himself.

As for the other inspectors, as long as they are not stupid, they dare not and are unwilling to take over halfway when they don't understand and don't have enough time.

The inspector in charge took out a letter from the drawer with a blank expression, and said on the table, "Maybe you don't know the relationship between Simone Law Firm and Francis Wood.

Also, do you really think that just two months ago, after winning the lawsuit with a senior lawyer Simeone, Simeone would invite you? "

Willie was taken aback, and hurriedly picked up the envelope on the table and opened it, only to realize that he was able to receive the invitation letter only because of the recommendation of the supervisor in front of him.

And the letter in his hand is an inquiry letter from Simeone.

I did receive an invitation, so I don't need to guess, the supervisor must have said something nice, and even spliced ​​up my relationship, and asked someone to help me, so Simeone finally decided to send me an invitation letter.

"Thank you." Willie stopped being crazy now, put away his cynical smile, and sat on the chair to meditate.

Suddenly he asked in a heartbeat, "Boss, what do you mean by the relationship between Simeone and Francis Wood just now?"

The supervisor shook his head, "New York is the vote base for the donkey party, and there are plenty of people who don't like elephants, do you understand?"

Willie suddenly realized that perhaps this was the main reason why he received the invitation letter.

After all, his winning rate reached 98.6%, but when he thought of the prosecutor taking over Turner's case before, his expression suddenly became richer.

The supervisor sighed and said, "Willie, I am very optimistic about you, but you have to understand that your age, qualifications, and connections are not enough to handle a senior senator who can participate in the general election.

It's a pity that that **** Royce was actually injured. I can only hand over the case to you according to some people's expectations. "

Now Willie's heart was full of gratitude to the supervisor.

It never occurred to him that the injured lawyer was just the one selected by Li Changheng's legal team at the beginning.

After Turner-Wood gained Li Changheng's support, the legal team would of course have to find a way to follow Turner's wishes and change lawyers.

Moreover, this matter had been confirmed three days ago, that is to say, Willie had learned about it three days late.

"The court is going to start tomorrow, and I haven't even seen the files, the police evidence and the witnesses. How can I take over?"

The supervisor pointed to a file bag on the desk with an unchanged expression, "Turner has pleaded guilty after being arrested by the police and entered the police station, and signed the plea.

Moreover, the guns found at the scene were full of his fingerprints. Neighbors and three nearby lawn trimmers also testified that the half hour from hearing the gunshots to the time Turner was taken away by the police.

No one was seen entering Turner's home, and Turner himself did not leave the house. "

This is ironclad evidence, and Willie looked at the supervisor suspiciously, "A case that any prosecutor can win, but no one else took it?"

You must know that the U.S. SFA system has always liked to trouble politicians.

The purpose is very simple. Once you pull down a politician, you will become famous, and it will be much easier to apply for a position in a barrister's law firm or to engage in politics in the future.

"We are all old~lightnovelpub.net~ and have family scruples," the supervisor sighed, "Simone will take a fancy to you, not only because of your good business level, but also because you are only 29 years old.

After 10 years of training, you will be labeled as Simeone. In the future, no matter whether you stay at Simeone as a partner or resign to go into politics, their returns will be much higher than those of us old guys, understand? "

Willie curled his lips inwardly, his opinion was just the opposite of that of the supervisor.

Age is one aspect, but ability is the most important.

Thinking of his 98.6% winning rate, Willie's confidence suddenly exploded.

Furthermore, after carefully looking through the documents several times, and even reading until after 10 o'clock in the evening, he did not find that Turner and the lawyer he hired had a chance to reverse the case.

The supervisor who had been with Willie came over with two cups of coffee and sighed, "Since the afternoon, I have been worried that Turner's lawyer will focus on manslaughter and impulsive murder."
