Jiang Chundong finished speaking and put down the page-turning pen. “My statement is complete.”
He had just sat down when Du Shaoxing stood up.
“Your Honor, we have some questions about the witness’s testimony, please allow me to question the witness.”
The judge granted permission.
“It’s the same question,” Du Shaoxing approached Xu Pozhi, “Mr. Xu, was the fire in the flower room big? Was there any dense smoke?”
He aimed to negate the witness’s testimony.
Xu Pozhi knew the other party was setting a trap but affirmed resolutely, “I am certain I did not see it wrongly.”
“How can you be certain?” Du Shaoxing didn’t rush to contradict him, “At that time, you too had inhaled an excessive amount of smoke and were in a semi-comatose state. How did you ascertain this?”
Xu Pozhi couldn’t immediately answer.
Du Shaoxing was well-known in the legal circle for skirting around important issues and shifting concepts, skillfully leading people’s thoughts in a direction favorable to himself.
Du Shaoxing handed up a report from the desk, “Your Honor, members of the jury, this report from the forensic department says that these two pieces of evidence have been severely oxidized due to being buried for an extended period, with no fingerprints or bloodstains remaining.” He paused briefly, “That is to say, these two pieces of evidence have no directivity. As for why my client was present when the police discovered the evidence, this is easily explained. The location where the evidence was found is the Luo Family’s home, my client’s residence.” He looked at the jury members, “Is it a problem for my client to be at his own home? Moreover, he only wanted to take care of the flower room and inadvertently dug up these so-called pieces of evidence, nothing more. What does that prove?”
Smooth talking and eloquent.
A prominent lawyer sure is worthy of their reputation, they could even argue that the dead are alive.
“Your Honor,” Du Shaoxing made a request to the judge, “please allow me to call our number one witness.”
The judge consented, and the court clerk called out for the witness loudly.
What do you think?
