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

Chapter 17 New Evidence
No idea?

If true, the case would naturally go in a completely different direction.

If Wen Xuan really had no knowledge, then she was a complete victim in the days before the incident.

If Wen Xuan really didn't know anything about it, then on the day of the incident, after leaving the bedroom, Wen Xuan was absolutely repulsive towards Zhang Wenhai, and there was no chance of any luck!
If Wen Xuan really had no knowledge, then what Zhang Wenhai did to Wen Xuan in the living room would most likely be considered rape!
This is impossible!

Realizing this possibility, Huang Jing's heart beat violently.

If Wen Xuan had not lied, it would most likely have led to the identification of self-defense in the end.

Although this possibility was unlikely, Huang Jing stood up suddenly.

As a prosecutor who hates evil, he will never allow this possibility to arise!
"When speaking in court, you have to talk about evidence. Now when we handle cases, even if the defendant takes the initiative to plead guilty, we can't make a judgment based solely on the oral confession, not to mention that the defendant now gives an answer that is favorable to himself."

Huang Jing pointed to the list of evidence listed on the electronic screen:

"The defender currently does not have any evidence that can be used to prove the defendant's answer, let alone prove other questions based on the defendant's answer."

Nonsense. Although everyone and gods were outraged by Zhang Wenhai's bet on his newlywed wife, before today's court session, no one connected the previous incident with this case.

After all, Wen Xuan is suspected of intentional homicide, so what is the point of discussing what happened before?

Today, under Ren Zhen's step-by-step guidance, the issue of Wen Xuan's sexual consent on the day of the crime came to the forefront of court scrutiny.

Focusing on this relatively vague and difficult-to-prove focus, the events a few days before the crime suddenly became important.

If something that no one cared about before is brought up now, how can there be corresponding evidence to prove it?
Huang Jing, the prosecutor, figured out the connection in an instant.

Come on, tell me, without evidence, how can you prove that what Wen Xuan said is true?
As soon as Huang Jing finished speaking, he saw from the corner of his eye that the corners of the lawyer's mouth on the opposite side seemed to be slightly raised?

and many more!

Is it
Huang Jing suddenly had a bad feeling.

This situation was created by Ren Zhen with great effort. Does he really have no evidence?
Huang Jing quickly scanned the evidence list again.

Indeed not.
"Defender, do you have any new opinions on the defendant's answer?"

Huang Jing's question is reasonable and according to procedures, the defender needs to respond.

Zhang Lixia did not see Ren Zhen's expression, but judging from Ren Zhen's interruption, this lawyer was definitely not just being tough.

"The prosecutor's reminder is very timely."

Ren Zhen seemed to be smiling, which made Huang Jing feel very uncomfortable.

Mudd, this guy says I'm right every time.

But every time there is a but.

It's so hard for Nima!

"The defendant's answer to the questions raised by the prosecutor was that she had no knowledge. I believe what she said is true."

Ren Zhen took out a USB flash drive from his pocket, pulled it on the table a few times, and pulled out a stack of stapled A4 papers.

"Presiding judge, I have a new set of evidence here that can be used to prove that the defendant did not know anything about what happened to her a few days before the crime."

Huang Jing stared at the USB flash drive and paper in Ren Zhen's hand, feeling something bad.

"There is new evidence, why not submit it before the trial?"

Zhang Lixia immediately raised questions.

Before each hearing, the court has a prescribed time limit for the submission of evidence.

In this way, the judge can understand the focus of the case before the trial.

Although the case cannot be prejudged during the trial, submitting evidence earlier can help the judge have an overall grasp of the case so that he can better plan and control the trial.

If all the evidence is submitted at the trial, it will obviously delay the trial process and will not help the judge understand the full picture of the case.Therefore, Ren Zhen's action of presenting a set of evidence in court was obviously illegal.

"President, this set of evidence was obtained after the end of the first-instance trial. To be more precise, it was obtained after the first-instance judgment came into effect and two days before the current trial. Therefore, it was not submitted on time within the time limit for producing evidence."

Ren Zhen was unhurried and his voice was full of determination:

"And before this trial, the prosecutor has not made any accusations on relevant issues, so there is no need for these evidences to prove it."

“But now the prosecutor’s issues are involved, so new evidence needs to be submitted.”

In just a few sentences, the blame was placed on the prosecutor, and Huang Jing felt a little sore.

Although everything Ren Zhen said made sense, he was very depressed.

No one told me before that today's court meeting will be a self-defense for rape?

After listening to Ren Zhen's answer, Zhang Lixia held a brief meeting with the two judges beside him.

Soon.

"It is agreed that the defender will submit new evidence, but after the trial, a supplementary explanation is required to explain the evidence submitted in court and clarify the source of the evidence. The trial court will verify it."

Zhang Lixia banged the gavel and made a decision.

According to regulations, evidence can only be submitted within the time limit for producing evidence.

But there are exceptions.

In summary, if it is indeed impossible to submit evidence within the time limit for producing evidence due to objective reasons, it can be extended appropriately.

And in the second instance trial, new evidence discovered after the first instance trial can be presented in the court investigation at the latest.

Ren Zhen's explanation was obviously within a reasonable range, and the trial court had no reason to reject it.

"Okay, presiding judge."

Ren Zhen handed over the evidence.

"The first is the supplementary evidence. This is the sales record of a pharmacy near Zhang Wenhai's home. From it, it can be found that Zhang Wenhai purchased sleeping pills at the pharmacy with a doctor's prescription a few days before the incident."

"Zhang Wenhai's wealth treasure is bound to his own bank card. We can see from the records that he used this bank card to pay for sleeping pills."

"Evidence two is Zhang Wenhai's bank card transaction history, which is completely consistent with the pharmacy's records."

"Evidence three is a video on a USB flash drive, which was extracted from the surveillance at the pharmacy counter. It can be used to prove that Zhang Wenhai went to the pharmacy in person to buy sleeping pills six days before the incident."

After hearing this, almost everyone realized something.

"Good guy, give your wife sleeping pills?"

"In this case, is it really possible that Wen Xuan has no awareness of what those gambling dogs are doing?"

"That's not possible, right? You didn't feel your body when you woke up the next day?"

"Explain the feeling in detail, I don't understand!"

"Isn't this inappropriate for teasing?"

"But even if Zhang Wenhai bought sleeping pills, how can he prove that he gave them to Wen Xuan? He bought them with a prescription, which means the doctor asked him to buy them. Maybe he really needs to take medicine?"

Of course, what netizens want, prosecutors and judges also want.

However, before they could ask questions.

Ren Zhen's evidence is still continuing.
