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

Chapter 31 I didn’t win

"Lawyer Ren, I won this lawsuit today. How do you feel?"

Ren Zhen picked a reporter at random.

After hearing this question, Ren Zhen smiled politely:
"The first thing I want to correct is that I did not win any lawsuit."

Reporters:? ? ? ? ?

Suspended death sentence changed to not guilty!

Released in court!

Haven't won yet?

If you are too modest, that would be Versailles!

"Maybe people think I'm showing off, but I really am not."

Ren Zhen's sincere tone made all the reporters roll their eyes.

Isn't this pretentious?
If you keep pretending, we won't cooperate with you.

"In criminal cases, whether we are judges, prosecutors, or our lawyers, our goals are actually the same."

Ren Zhen looked around and guessed what these reporters were thinking:

"That is, to find out the facts of the case and restore the truth of the case, so that the criminals receive the punishment they deserve, and the innocent people do not suffer injustice."

"So, I just helped Wen Xuan to avoid the punishment that she should not bear."

After hearing this, the reporters realized that Ren Zhen really didn't seem to be showing off.

"So, I didn't win, so it doesn't matter if I won the lawsuit."

Ren Zhen looked serious: "In fact, in criminal cases, there are only victims, not winners."

"You may have seen Wen Xuan's acquittal, but you have not seen the pain she suffered in this matter."

"Now that she has just gained the freedom that she already had, how can we say we won?"

The reporters, who originally had many questions to ask, all fell silent at this time.

They were waiting here, and that was not what they wanted to hear.

Shouldn't it be normal to say that my professional skills surpassed those of the prosecutor, so I won the case?

In other words, I worked hard and risked my life to obtain key evidence, and finally made a comeback and let Wen Xuan see the light of day again!
No matter what happens, just say, it's your duty, just win. Is that okay?
But if you say so much now, are you too serious?

And it seems to make sense?
But there is no gimmick, no explosive point!
How do we write hot search reports?

"Lawyer Ren, let a person who killed someone escape the punishment of the law. Do you think this is what a lawyer should do?"

A reporter wearing glasses and looking polite suddenly asked.

Other reporters:? ? ? !
This kid can do it!

I was shocked by what this lawyer said just now.

I almost joined the cause of rule of law and contributed to fairness and justice!
This guy brought everyone back to reality with one sentence.

No matter how nice you say it, issues with conflicts and contradictions are what we want to hear!
The microphones that had just been lowered were raised to Ren Zhen's mouth.

“First of all, let’s ask the question, do you know what a lawyer is supposed to do?”

Looking at the reporter who asked the question, Ren Zhen's expression was not very friendly.

This question is very close to Huang Jing’s question just now.

But the difference is that Huang Jing, as a public prosecutor, raised questions from a professional perspective.

Ren Zhen could see that Huang Jing was actually trapped by some subtle influences in judicial practice.

The obsession of sending criminals to prison is particularly deep in the minds of prosecutors in this world.

It is precisely because they are too jealous of evil that they are more likely to fall into certain misunderstandings and ignore some more important aspects of the law.

Although Huang Jing's views on this case are biased, this is his job responsibility, and asking such questions is also based on professionalism.

But the reporter asked the question with completely different motives than Huang Jing.

Someone who killed someone?Escape legal sanctions?

Such questions tacitly imply that Wen Xuan is a murderer.

At the same time, he also put the label of being an aid to the evildoers on Ren Zhen's head.Just plain stupid and bad!

Faced with Ren Zhen's question, the reporter hesitated.

His mouth opened, but in the end no sound came out.

"What a lawyer should do is to fight for the client's maximum rights and interests within the legal and reasonable scope."

Ren Zhen said coldly: "Everything I defended Wen Xuan is true and has been recognized by the judge and prosecutor. Of course this is what I should do!"

"Secondly, what this reporter friend said about letting a murderer escape legal punishment seems to be accusing Wen Xuan of being a murderer?"

A dangerous light burst out from his eyes: "My friend, if you are a public prosecutor, you can make reasonable accusations in accordance with the law. There is no problem."

"But if you are just a reporter, what I want to tell you is that it was not me who let Wen Xuan escape the punishment of the law today, but the law let an innocent person go!
We should be thankful that the judges found out the facts of the case and put things back on the right track.

When you say something like this, I highly doubt your motives! "

Everyone's eyes instantly moved to the boy with eyes.

As if to help Ren Zhen ask silently: What's your kid's motive?
"I"

Eyes Boy was at a loss, "That's not what I meant!"

It's impossible not to panic after being slapped with such a label.

Other reporters secretly rejoiced in their hearts.

I wanted to ask this question just now, but luckily I didn't ask it out loud.

At the same time, he looked at his colleague who was sweating anxiously with schadenfreude.

Just talk fast!

Show you can, right?
However, Ren Zhen obviously didn't intend to pester him any more and looked away from Yan Zizi.

"I want to tell everyone here that the court has now made a verdict and found Wen Xuan innocent."

"This shows that Wen Xuan is a complete victim in this case!"

"Although Zhang Wenhai died because of her, she does not have to bear any responsibility for it!"

Ren Zhen glanced around the camera and said in a loud voice:

"So the title of murderer cannot be placed on her head casually, otherwise there will be consequences."

Ren Zhen didn't say the next words, but all the reporters recalled Ren Zhen's words before the trial.

He seems to be warning us to be careful in our words and deeds, otherwise we will be held accountable?

Everyone present was a smart person, so they naturally heard the subtext of Ren Zhen.

Some reporters are already thinking about whether to leave this article to other colleagues after returning home.

If I didn't say anything right, this guy wouldn't really sue me, would he?
Even if he didn't see the death penalty, he said he would be released in court.

Don't send me any more
"Lawyer Ren, can you explain to us from a professional perspective why the results of the first trial and the second trial of Wen Xuan's case are so different?"

This problem seems much more normal.

And I believe this is also a question in many people’s minds.

"This case is generally quite complicated."

Ren Zhen thought about his words.

After all, the case was sentenced once by the court of first instance, which also involved law enforcement and prosecutors. Although the verdict has been changed now, there are still some things that must be taken into consideration.

"During the first trial, some of the facts of the case were not clear enough. Of course, this was mainly because of doubts about the relevance. Therefore, a more detailed investigation may not have been conducted at that time, and Wen Xuan's murderous behavior was only determined."

"Based on this, Wen Xuan was given a suspended death sentence. I think this was a serious dereliction of duty by the first-instance lawyer!"

Ren Zhen gave himself a thumbs up in his heart.

That is, as a lawyer, wouldn’t it be dereliction of duty if we don’t take all possibilities into consideration?

Even if Wen Xuan pleads guilty, it will not affect the kid's defense.

It shouldn't be a problem to throw the blame on his head, right?

So reasonable!
