Chapter 155

Bei Hai didn't know what to say, and looked at his lawyer Quincy with his eyes wide open. Now this guy was gathering next to the jury seat, and asked one of the jury members with a relaxed look on his face...

Not only Bei Hai in the whole court, but many people also looked surprised when they heard Quincy's question, including the jury member who was asked.

"Sorry, I didn't hear your question clearly. Can you ask again?" The jury member was a little unbelievable and asked Quincy again.

Quincy moved his arm, and a warm smile still appeared on his face: "My question is, as a Latino, can you feel that some racial discriminatory remarks have trouble or hurt you in your life!"

The jury member who was asked had a very dissatisfied expression on his mind, because this person was not a Latino, but a black man. As for how to prove that anyone with long eyes could see it.

"We oppose it!" Sean immediately stood up and said, "The plaintiff's lawyer is delaying the time."

"Plaintiff's lawyer, please note that this is the court!" The judge also reminded Quincy.

"Sorry! Sorry! I'm just doing an experiment, now I've got results!" Quincy stood up straight and nodded slightly to the judge.

Quincy turned his body and asked the entire jury, "Do you think the person sitting there is an African-American?" After that, he stretched out his finger at Bei Hai on the plaintiff's seat.

"He is an Asian!" said one of the jury members.

"Thank you, I can see that he is an Asian. I think all the jury members will not have any objections to this." Quincy was very satisfied with the effect. Then he raised his head and thought for a while.

"The jurors are about thirty feet away from the plaintiff's dock (more than nine meters)" Quincy said the topic here: "We are all ordinary people who have not been trained. In such a distance, we all know the difference between an Asian and an African. In the video, the two police officers and my client are only less than fifteen feet apart. The two strictly trained police officers regard an Asian as an African. How likely is it?"

Without waiting for someone else to answer, Quincy himself said: "It is impossible, because when they saw my client, they knew that he was not the wanted suspect. They just wanted to have some fun with my client because of his model citizen!"

"I object!" Sean jumped straight from the chair this time.

Quincy's words are speculations. Although they are close to the facts, there is no evidence. Sean's objection was adopted by the judge.

"I have nothing to say." Quincy walked back to the plaintiff's bench and the old god sat down.

The next time, the two lawyers were talking nonsense. Sean cited the resumes of the two police officers, not to mention that the experiences of these two were really good. Especially the sheriff was a well-known detective in Boston before.

As for how he was sent to Gloucester, it was said in writing to strengthen the security forces in the small town. However, as long as he was not a blind man, he knew that this guy had offended the great god in the police station and was kicked into this coastal town. The playful American officialdom is also prevalent.

Apart from Quincy's setting questions above, Bei Hai did not hear what the "credit" of each person involved had to do with the case.

Bei Hai didn't understand, but in fact this is very important. The lawyers of both parties did not present these things to let the judge see anything. The judges were all old birds who were trapped in the law. The thief's legal knowledge was even better than that of the lawyer. The lawyer wanted to use this method to leave a good impression on the jury members in the hearts of the jury members. Because this is very important, it can often become the cornerstone of a case turning defeat into victory.

Perhaps some cases seem strange to the Chinese people, for example, the police stopped a car with a hundred black guns in it. However, the court finally found the person who smuggled the guns unconfirmed and exempted from prosecution! The reason was that the police stopped the other person's car because there was no legitimate reason!

The legal awareness shows that there is a huge difference between the East and the West. If the police who stopped the car in China would immediately wear red and win the prize. However, the American police were scolded.

There is also the famous Simpson murder of his wife!

It is difficult for Chinese people to understand, because if such a bad guy is released, who knows what bad things he can do next time? Who will kill? It is better to arrest him.

In fact, this is the case. In the 1980s, every time the public security of society was cracked down on it, it was better to have one or two years. Every time it was a severe crackdown, it was simply a waste of time.

Sometimes, guilty is better to maintain the overall security of a social group than guilty.

Let me give you another example. In the past, the Soviet Union was one of the best countries in the world. What about after democracy? Look at the gangsters having fun. Now all the police chiefs have forced their girls to marry.

However, developed Western countries, including Americans, are unhappy to do this. They have to release these mistballs to pursue suspicion and never be guilty, and pay attention to showing the correctness of judicial procedures. As for the bad guys released, what should I do? Wait for the next time I do bad things! Whoever is killed and hurts during this period will only admit that he is unlucky.

On the one hand, the result is somewhat related to American law, and on the other hand, it may be the jury system. These jury members are ordinary people in society. If they are people, they have preferences and don’t like things. In any government or bureaucrat, except for official media, there is no good impression in the hearts of ordinary people. The same is true in the United States.

Bei Hai's case is not as pessimistic as Bei Hai thought. In fact, it was a little worried at the beginning, because the jury members were all ordinary people, Bei Hai was also an ordinary person and an ordinary person who sued the government. Although the balance of justice would not be obviously tilted towards this side, it would never be tilted towards the government. This is certain.

In this regard, Americans do better than domestic ones, and courts in developed countries will not tend toward government agencies or large companies.

There is no need to say much about domestic examples. Just mention the hearing about the price increase of buses and subways. The so-called hearing is the same as if it was not done. When it is held, everyone knows that it will rise. As for how much it increases, it depends on the mood of the men. Whether they listen or not is the same, because few people attending the hearing take the buses and subways to work!

The first trial ended in Bei Hai's confusion. Although he was confused, Bei Hai also knew that he had at least had a significant advantage in this trial. Quincy seemed to have at least moved the onlookers who watched the trial.

As soon as the case was over, Bei Hai chatted with Quincy and Catherine and did his own things. As for having lunch, contacting relationships, or anything else, because Bei Hai paid the lawyer fee, Quincy was obliged to do his best to win the lawsuit, because the winning or losing of the lawsuit was not only Bei Hai's affairs, but also had a great impact on Quincy's winning rate.

"Your lawyer is great!".

Bei Hai left the plaintiff's dock and walked to the side of Li Weiwei and his group. After chatting for a few words, he saw Zhao Rong's little foreign devil boyfriend say this.

"Did you see it?" Bei Hai said with a smile.

Zhao Rong said at this time: "William is a law student!"

Oh! When Bei Hai heard that William was studying in law school, he understood that this person's family background should be good. When he heard that he was studying law, Bei Hai did not think about the outcome of his case at the first time. Instead, he thought about his family background. I have to say that studying law in the United States is not something that ordinary people can afford. The tuition fee alone costs 60,000 US dollars a year.

"I really want to have the opportunity to go to his law firm for an internship!" It's obvious that William admires Quincy Wood a little.

What Bei Hai didn't know was that if it weren't for the person who was fighting this lawsuit, Quincy Wood, this little William was really not interested in attending the lawsuit. It wasn't that he was rude, because now it was the time for the college entrance examination, and it was Christmas soon. If he didn't squat in the dormitory and hold books, wouldn't he be seeking death!

Not only William, but also Li Weiwei and others, so the lunch meal was quite sloppy. Bei Hai originally thought that it would take more than an hour for everyone to play. Who knew that after only half an hour, Li Weiwei wiped his mouth and left with the smoked fish he sent on the grounds of reviewing. The only thing that was decided was Christmas, and everyone would go to Bei Hai to play.

When he stood at the restaurant entrance, Bei Hai looked at the car of several people and disappeared. Then he turned to Qi Yiming next to him and said, "Only we are all right now. Let's go with you, call your car and see where to make an appointment to test the car!"
