If you were asked to file a lawsuit, how come you were not found guilty?

Chapter 18
"Presiding judge, the defender applies to ask questions to the defendant."

"agree."

With the evidence in front of him, Zhang Lixia had already realized something.

"Defendant Wen Xuan, from the second day of your wedding to the day before the crime, what time did you go to bed every day? What time did you get up in the morning?"

"night."

Wen Xuan recalled, "I don't remember very clearly. I feel groggy every day, and I don't know when I fell asleep."

"But it shouldn't be more than ten o'clock at the latest."

"I don't wake up until after nine o'clock in the morning. The first thing I do when I wake up every day is check my phone, so I remember it very clearly."

Wen Xuan's voice trembled slightly: "I was still wondering at that time, how could I sleep for so long every day?"

"At first I thought it was because I was too tired during the wedding days, but I didn't expect it."

She didn't say anything else, but most people already had the answer in their minds.

"My questioning is over, presiding judge."

Zhang Lixia nodded.

Ren Zhen's question would actually have no effect if placed in a normal court trial.

Because the question is too vague and broad.

But combined with the existing evidence and Wen Xuan's answer, this question is a bit intriguing.

"Based on the evidence just presented and the defendant's answer, I think I can raise a doubt that the victim gave her sleeping pills without the defendant's knowledge."

"The exact method is unknown, but the method doesn't really matter."

Ren Zhen motioned to the scribe to continue playing:
"Of course, that's just my doubt, not a fact, but let's take a look at Wen Xuan's test report and we'll find some very interesting things."

On the screen, the blood test report from the day Wen Xuan was detained was displayed.

"In this report, when Wen Xuan was detained, there were still some components of sleeping pills remaining in her blood. Sleeping pills are prescription drugs, but Wen Xuan has no record of purchasing sleeping pills."

"Where do the components in the blood come from? I think that's worth thinking about."

Huang Jing frowned at this time.

The evidence now shown shows that Wen Xuan was very likely to have been asleep during those nights.

But it's not a sure thing yet, if you can find something you can question.
As if he guessed what Huang Jing was thinking, the screen turned and another set of evidence appeared.

"This is an audio and eight videos, please play it to the clerk."

Wang Shiyang nodded and clicked lightly.

After a burst of electricity tingling, a human voice appeared.

"I heard that Haizi's case is going to trial again?"

"No, I heard that the woman's parents refused to give up. They appealed and found a lawyer for her. They have been dragging it out until now."

The sound is a little low, but still clear.

Wang Shiyang turned the volume to the maximum.

"These two old immortals are really troublesome!"

"Hurry up and shoot that woman. She will die early and have peace of mind."

"But don't tell me yet. It's different when you're young. That woman's body is so soft and fragrant."

"Tch, it seems like none of you has ever done anything before? Look at you, you look so worthless."

"Zhang Wenhai, that bitch, drinks some donkey urine and talks about everything. He deserves to die!"

"I said, this matter shouldn't be found on us, right?"

"What the hell do we care? They fought and killed someone, what does it have to do with us?" "Don't worry, I asked my lawyer friend about it. He said that this case is an intentional homicide and has nothing to do with rape. , as soon as that bitch is shot, we will..."

"Bah, bah, bah! What kind of rape? Keep your mouth shut!"

"."

The voices of several people are intertwined in the recording, and it is obvious that they are the voices of four people.

After hearing this, Zhang Lixia frowned.

Huang Jing's face was gloomy, and he didn't know what he was thinking.

The anger in Wen Xuan's eyes was about to burst out, and her silver teeth were about to be bitten into pieces.

This was also the first time she listened to this recording.

If nothing else, the four obscene and dirty voices in the recording are the gamblers Zhang Wenhai met at the gambling table.

However, Wen Xuan was still reasonable and did not do anything excessive. Instead, she buried her head deeply.

No one could see her expression.

No one knew what she was thinking.

"I recorded this audio at the mahjong parlor where Zhang Wenhai often gambled. The recording process was a bit tortuous, but it was still rewarding."

While everyone was busy with their own thoughts, Ren Zhen took out a voice recorder from his bag:

"This is my recording tool. Whether this audio is true or false is not up to me, but I believe that after the pen is authenticated, the answer will naturally be revealed."

The voice recorder was also submitted as evidence.

"This is the surveillance video of the downstairs and elevator of Wenxuan Community. There are eight videos in total."

The video on the screen starts playing.

"Judging from the surveillance, Zhang Wenhai would take someone home after twelve o'clock every night four nights before the incident."

"After the two people get out of the elevator, for a maximum of ten minutes and a minimum of five minutes, the person with Zhang Wenhai will take the elevator alone, go downstairs and leave."

"I have no right to take away the surveillance of the property, but I have asked the property to be properly kept, and the court can verify the authenticity of the evidence at any time."

"Although these cannot directly prove anything, by stringing everything together, we may be able to piece together a truth."

After the video was played, Ren Zhen turned to Huang Jing, who had lost his expression:

"Based on the above evidence, the defense believes that Wen Xuan did not know anything about what happened a few nights before the crime."

"I think the prosecutor's question about sexual consent based on this can be reasonably explained."

"We can infer that Wen Xuan made a clear rejection of Zhang Wenhai's behavior in the living room on the night of the incident."

"Therefore, although Wen Xuan's act of resistance resulted in the death of the victim, it fully complied with the elements of legitimate defense and was not criminally responsible!"

Ren Zhen's evidence was finally over.

There was another brief silence during the hearing.

"Does the prosecutor accept the new evidence submitted by the defense?"

The trend of the trial reversed many times, and Zhang Lixia also had a headache.

But after all, someone still has to preside over the trial to continue.

Hearing this, Huang Jing stood up slowly, his eyes no longer as firm as when the court was in session.

Could this second trial really be a mistake?
Is Wen Xuan really innocent?

But if someone dies, shouldn’t someone be punished?
Huang Jing, who has many years of experience in public prosecutions, felt a little confused at the court hearing for the first time.
