Luo Jialan could no longer cry She lowered her head and sobbed quietly Her shoulders tre sorry for her
Auntie Xing and Auntie You, ere sitting in the gallery, felt their hearts ache when they saw that scene Gu Nianzhi was such a bully Look, she er!
Gu Nianzhi glanced at Luo Jialan, and she calmly continued, “After the death of the defendant Luo Jialan’s mother, Luo Xinxue, the Huo family had no other fe Two years later, the defendant, Luo Jialan, volunteered to take care of her”
In reality, the Huo fa family at the ti family for care In comparison, Luo Jialan, as 18 at the ti’s psychiatrist at the time, and she reco care of Song Jinning
Luo Jialan was studying at Yale University in the United States at the time Because of that, she returned froer stayed there Instead, she co it easier for her to take care of Song Jinning
However, she didn’t have to take care of Song Jinning 24/7 like Auntie Xing and Auntie You did
Just like herthe housekeepers who took care of Song Jinning, such as Auntie Xing and Auntie You
Therefore, she could still take classes and when she didn’t have classes, co and Auntie You were the housekeepers that Luo Jialan personally hired for Song Jinning after she took over
The housekeepers who had taken care of Song Jinning before weren’t Auntie Xing and Auntie You
Luo Jialan’s heart skipped a beat when she heard this, and she stopped sobbing
” … It’s normal for a niece to take care of a sick aunt, but the Huo fa her ‘aunt’ had ulterior motives In order to seize the Huo family’s assets, she hid her true identity and plotted to nan perked up and smiled Her eyes flashed with derisiveness as she looked at Gu Nianzhi fully She raised her hand and said, “Objection The prosecution used iination as evidence to slander my client My client didn’t have the motive or conduct to show that she atte I have a witness to testify”
When she said that, it was time to cross-exae nodded and said with an impassive expression, “Your objection is sustained Counsel, please pay attention to your states”
Gu Nianzhi pursed her lips and slowly sat down
The judge saw that Gu Nianzhi didn’t object, so he rapped his gavel and said, “The prosecution and defense will now cross-examine their respective witnesses Ask the witnesses to coo to the next room to wait for the summons”
Today was the first day of the trial, and the prosecution had only brought one witness, Huo Guanchen
The defendant had brought titnesses, Auntie Xing and Auntie You
After they had left the Huo family home, they had been nan had found them and persuaded them to be Luo Jialan’s witnesses After careful consideration, they had agreed
As they spoke, a few staff members came over with forms and docu, and Auntie You
It was also necessary to verify their fingerprints, irises, and DNA to prevent the appearance of a fake witness
Moreover, the lawyers of both the prosecution and the defense had to approve the test results before they could officially testify in court
The results of the DNA test would be delayed by a few days, but the results of the fingerprints and irises could be obtained inan looked at each other’s witness identification docuned each other’s forms to indicate that they approved the witness’ identity
After the witness’s identity was verified, the court staff led them to a room next to the court to wait for the summons
They were under special supervision there and couldn’t talk to each other or look at their phones or coazines and law books that had been placed in the rooe once again confirmed the the prosecution’s and defense’ intentions
Gu Nianzhi said, “We insist on charging Luo Jialan with intentional honan also said, “I plead not guilty on behalf of ed ”
They had the intention of continuing the case
The judge raised his hand and said, “Then the prosecution will begin calling witnesses”
This was also the usual practice of the court
First, the prosecution, the plaintiff, would state its allegations, then list the evidence, and finally use reason to string the evidence together into a convincing chain of evidence to prove its allegations
Then the defense would act to refute the prosecution’s allegations
Whether it was civil or crinize the burden of proof, which asthe evidence
For exae someone with murder, you have to prove that they did it, not have them prove that they didn’t do it
If you say that your neighbor did it, whether you say it in public in front of a reporter or in private in a Wechat group, you have to prove that your neighbor did it instead of you si to prove that he didn’t kill anyone
The onlookers couldn’t assu the truth just because her video wasn’t mosaic and had been deleted after it had spread all over the internet
That wasn’t possible; that wasn’t how the laorked
Accusing someone of murder was such a serious crime, but they couldn’t come up with any concrete evidence They didn’t even have any valid clues All they could say was, “I think… ” , “I heard… ” , “I think… ” , that wasn’t an accusation, that was a rual responsibility
Gu Nianzhi had been unable to get the police and the prosecutor’s office to file a case It was because they felt that her evidence was insufficient to form a complete chain of evidence
