Life as a police officer in America

Chapter 169 Hounds Always Hunt
Get the Attorney General, Qin Huai said, the policewoman next to you is so fierce, it looks like she wants to kill me with a gun.

Of course Jones Meddy would not kill Qin Huai, but Wang Dengming looked at him with special admiration.

"Master, next step, you said that what catastrophe is followed by what catastrophe, how should I solve it?"

"Pour tea."

"Okay, pour tea."

Wang Dengming poured him a cup of tea sincerely.

"The peach blossom catastrophe has turned into a peach blossom luck. Sheriff, you are very lucky, but there are many catastrophes behind you. The best way is not to do it. The 36 plan is the best. Go back to China. Why do you have to stay in the United States?"

"Three years ago, if you asked me to go back like this, I would definitely go. Not now. I was reluctant to go at the beginning of my luck. You don't know how the chief prosecutor is. Don't say it, you will be jealous if you say it."

"Understood, the hero is sad about the beauty pass, do you like American girls?"

"Change the word, bears are sad for beauty. I don't have to like American girls. In American words, hunting dogs always hunt."

"I can see that you are destined to have two evil spirits, and your murderous aura is indeed very strong. It is easy to hide from the open spear, but difficult to defend against the hidden arrow. In fact, you can change your role."

"Did you hear something again?"

"No, your character is someone who is easy to offend people, except for women, especially beautiful women. Be careful of women. If you die one day, I suspect that you were not shot to death by a gun, but by a woman."

Sergeant Wang stretched out his thumb and said with a smile: "You really know how to tell fortunes, so just tell me, what's going on behind me, there is a gang called the Shark Gang who has been trying to get rid of me several times."

"Because of what?"

"They were drug dealers."

"I see, I'll figure it out."

The master pinched his fingers and said, "At least for this month, you will not be in danger. You'd better concentrate on finishing your lawsuit."

Wang Dengming held his chin and stared at Qin Huai again.

"Is there writing on my face?"

"No, master, I have an idea, I have a feeling, if you stay in the United States, we brothers may be able to make a name for yourself together."

Qin Huai blinked his eyes and did not answer.

"Everyone has his own aspirations, but I hope you can think about it seriously, thank you, I'll replace wine with tea, I respect you."

Qin Huai picked up the teacup and said, "At least until Ren Pitu figured it out, I will stay in America."

"If you can't figure out the secret of this picture all your life."

"I will."

"Okay, I hope you will never figure out this picture for the rest of your life, come on, happy cooperation."

"Hmph, happy cooperation."

"Or, don't live in the police station, live with me."

"Wait till you win the case."
After get off work, Wang Dengming returned to his residence, and Jones Meddy had already gone back, sitting on the sofa and pretending to watch TV.

"What's the matter, dear?"

"Wang Dengming, have you fallen in love with Fengge Lilong?"

"I don't understand you."

"You understand, you just like her, let's have dinner."

Five days later, in the old court in the town, the trial was held. The Anti-Corruption Bureau came with three lawyers. It seemed that they were determined to send Wang Dengming to prison. Police Chief Wang couldn't figure it out. Where did he offend the Anti-Corruption Bureau? Such a big battle was needed.

However, he quickly calmed down, and Fengge Lilong also formed a team of lawyers, the number of which was also three.

Whether this is an honor or a misfortune, Wang Dengming doesn't know.

The chief prosecutor who prosecuted was sent by the Municipal Anti-Corruption Bureau. His name is Sau. He is in his 40s and has big ears. The earlobe looks like the ear of a Buddha statue. Generally speaking, people with such thick earlobes should be charitable and soft-hearted. , but this guy looks very sinister, with a pair of green eyes that make people think of wild ghosts.

The jury is also a grand jury. Generally, there are 12 jurors, but this one has 24 people.

The jury system refers to a system in which a certain number of citizens with the right to vote participate in deciding whether to prosecute a suspect and whether he is guilty.

Juries in the United States are randomly selected from registered voters within the jurisdiction of the court where the crime occurred. There are various occupations, and many of them are laymen.

Because they are laymen, jurors who are selected to be jurors will be educated about the sentence and punishment if the case is established or not established. Jurors only need to vote for guilt and innocence. Therefore, the key strength of a lawsuit is to look at the charges of both parties. Whether the defense lawyer's skills have enough evidence and eloquence to conquer the jurors in the jury.

Of course, it can't be completely tricky.

The first is that people related to the case, including those related to the plaintiff or the defendant, are not allowed to be selected.

When selecting the jury for the first time, the judge will choose randomly from the voting list of the election station or the telephone directory in order to ensure that the jury established can truly represent the people in the most general sense.After the primary election, there will be a strict screening, mainly to eliminate some candidates with psychological tendencies caused by the environment and experience, so as to avoid possible unfair judgments.

In addition to the judge's review, juror candidates are subject to review by defense attorneys and the prosecution, both of whom have veto power over juror candidates.In addition, the legal teams of both parties hold veto power, and any selected juror must be approved by both parties at the same time.

In an ordinary case, jurors can go home at any time and be replaced by a substitute judge.

But if it is a serious case, they must be isolated.

In this way, all the information they get is the evidence that is allowed to be presented in court, and their judgment will not be affected by the speculation and illegal evidence of the press.Since jurors have been sworn in, they have access to far less information than the general public.What they are allowed to know is limited to what the judge decides allows them to hear and see.Jurors are not allowed to read newspapers or watch TV news, so they don't know anything about what happened outside the court, such as the press conference held by the defense lawyer, the statement of the victim's family, and so on.

During this period of time, when the jurors went to the grocery store to buy food, they were accompanied by bailiffs to ensure that they did not come into contact with the outside world.Jurors are not allowed to communicate and discuss the case with each other until the entire case is over and handed over to them for decision.In short, everything is so that they are not affected by the emotions of all circles and illegal evidence, so as to maintain a fair sentence.It can be said that during this period of time, jurors had less freedom than the suspects in the case.

There are also many controversies about the jury system in the United States.It appears to be the weakest link in the American justice system.The jurors were randomly selected, and there were all kinds of people who came, with different races and skin colors, whether they were employed or not, and regardless of their knowledge and culture.In the United States, the most powerful is the legal team. Why do we have to find a bunch of "laymen" to be "judges above judges"?In the United States, all those who understand and agree with this system never think that it is a perfect system, but they cannot find a better system than it.

Of course, the jury system has obvious weaknesses. All "rule of law" will have the confusion of "rule of man". The initial legislation, trial, and final judgment all have the participation of "people".The jury system design theory holds that if everything is clear and obvious at a glance, ordinary people's intelligence is enough to judge.The reason why Americans insist on using the jury system is because jurors are the least controlled by anyone.

Because of this, when encountering troublesome jurors, they will put forward their own opinions, which will also have a certain impact on the lawyers of the prosecution and defense. If several jurors deliberately mess up at the same time, it may affect the judge's opinion. Decisions, though rare, do happen from time to time.

As for Wang Dengming's large jury, most of them were selected by Fengge Lilong's lawyer team, because this is Gumeng Town, Alaska, not Polsen City.

People from the Anti-Corruption Bureau had always hoped to bring Wang Dengming back to the city for trial, but Fengge Lilong insisted on trying it in the town's court. In the end, the people from the Anti-Corruption Bureau agreed.
