Chapter 151 Xie Siyu is not guilty!

After Gu Chen finished stating his four demands.

Zhang Zhiqiang and Zhu Guizhen, both sitting in the plaintiff's seat, had angry looks on their faces.

They are the plaintiffs!
Gu Chen wants to send them in?
Why?
Zhang Zhiqiang raised his hand and said, "Judge, we are the victims! My father is gone! It was because Xie Siyu hit my father with her car that I am the victim. Why does she want to send us victims to jail? Why?"

Zhu Guizhen also spoke up: "I am also a victim! Xie Siyu should be punished! It's all her fault!! She even wants to send us to jail, on what basis?"

Xie Siyu raised her hand and said, "Because I didn't hit anyone, it wasn't me who hit anyone."

Zhang Zhiqiang sneered after hearing this: "Then let me ask you, if you didn't hit the person, why did you go up to help him?"

Presiding Judge Rong Liwei struck the gavel.

"quiet!"

"Defendant's attorney, please speak."

Everyone looked at Gu Chen.

Gu Chen spoke at this time.

Gu Chen: "The question asked by the plaintiff Zhang Zhiqiang is very interesting. This question is also a question asked by the presiding judge of the first instance to our party, [The person was not hit by you, why did you go to help him?]"

"When I heard someone ask that question, I felt chilled."

"Helping others and selfless dedication have been traditional virtues of the Chinese nation since ancient times. If you see an old man lying on the ground, isn't it normal to help him up? If you see an old man lying on the ground, whether he is dead or alive, what's wrong with helping him up? But some people actually ask such questions. It's really ridiculous!"

"Does it mean that you can only help someone if they hit someone, and you can't help them if they don't hit someone, right? What if one day your father or your mother falls down on the road and can't get up, and their life is in danger, shouldn't others help them? Are you willing to let your parents fend for themselves?"

Everyone at the scene fell silent.

The same goes for netizens in the live broadcast room.

【Lawyer Gu said it well! 】

[Indeed, if my parents fell on the road, I would also hope that someone would help them up. Anyway, my family would not blackmail others.]

[Old people who blackmail others should bear legal responsibility. It's disgusting. No one in the whole society dares to help the elderly. ]

[Helping an elderly person has become a mistake, and a good person can be sentenced to ten years in prison. Do you think this is absurd? ]

[If Xie Siyu is really sentenced to ten years in prison and ordered to pay a dime, I will never help the elderly again.]

[Who dares to help an old man, if he has a mine at home? Hahaha, now even those who have a mine at home don’t dare to help. If you help an old man, you will be sentenced to ten years in prison. Can you bear it? ]

Zhang Zhiqiang said, "But you were the one who hit the person. The evidence is solid. You hit my father and his leg was broken! Are you still trying to shirk responsibility? And Zhu Guizhen saw it all. It was you who hit him!" After hearing this, Zhu Guizhen nodded quickly, "Yes, yes, I am the first party involved! I saw Xie Siyu hitting someone with my own eyes! She hit the old man and me, and we were both knocked out by her! Xie Siyu hit someone but she still refuses to admit it and is still being stubborn! My eyes are the best evidence!"

Zhu Guizhen had thought about it herself.

It couldn't be that Xie Siyu hit the old man first and then her with her car, right?

After all, if Xie Siyu really hit the old man, she would have stopped the car, so Zhu Guizhen said that Xie Siyu hit both her and the old man while driving, and she also acted as a witness.

It was precisely because of Zhu Guizhen's testimony at the first trial, plus the old man's statement that it was Xie Siyu who hit the car, and the lack of surveillance video evidence at the scene of the accident, and the fact that Xie Siyu's car was involved in an accident and the dashcam was broken, that Xie Siyu was finally found fully responsible and ordered to pay 1.4 million yuan in compensation, plus ten years in prison.

The plaintiff's lawyer said: "The chain of evidence is sufficient and complete, with witnesses and evidence. Xie Siyu was the only one driving on Changfeng Street when the accident happened. Both of them were hit. It could only be Xie Siyu who was driving, so Xie Siyu must bear the responsibility."

Both the plaintiff's lawyer and the plaintiff had a tough attitude. They insisted that it was Xie Siyu who hit the victim and that Xie Siyu should take the responsibility.

Gu Chen raised his hand.

Presiding Judge Rong Liwei looked at Gu Chen and said, "What rebuttal does the defendant's lawyer have?"

Gu Chen said, "Your Honor, the plaintiff's lawyer and the plaintiff have always said that it was our client Xie Siyu who hit the person, and the verdict of the first instance was also based on this point."

Everyone nodded.

Gu Chen continued, "The plaintiff has been emphasizing that it was Xie Siyu who hit the victim. Please produce evidence of the hit. If there is no evidence that Xie Siyu hit the victim, then our client is not guilty."

"Is there any surveillance video of the scene? Is there any evidence that our client Xie Siyu hit someone with her car? Is there any evidence?"

The plaintiff Zhang Zhiqiang said: "You bastard, my father was hit and killed! No one could treat him in the hospital, how could you say such a thing??? You want me to find evidence now? Then why did my father die? Tell me!"

Gu Chen said, "The hospital report said your father died of a heart attack. Did he die on the spot when he was hit?"

Zhang Zhiqiang chuckled, "My dad said that it was Xie Siyu who hit him, so it was Xie Siyu who hit him. My dad couldn't be lying, right? If it wasn't Xie Siyu who hit him, how could my dad have a broken leg? And multiple injuries on his body? And Yan Guizhen also saw with her own eyes that it was Xie Siyu who hit him. Isn't a witness evidence? Both of them said that it was Xie Siyu who hit him, so why are you denying it?"

Zhu Guizhen spoke up, "It was Xie Siyu who hit the car. I saw it with my own eyes! And why do you want us to provide evidence? We have already provided evidence, haven't we? Then let Xie Siyu prove it herself. Let Xie Siyu produce evidence that she didn't hit anyone. Besides, the front of the car Xie Siyu was driving was deformed! The car was deformed, and you said you didn't hit anyone! How did you do it?!"

Gu Chen said, "Legally, whoever makes the claim must provide evidence. Just relying on the two of you as witnesses cannot serve as evidence. In other words, you two do not have evidence that Xie Siyu hit someone, which means Xie Siyu is not guilty."

The plaintiff's lawyer said, "Lawyer Gu, your argument is a fallacy. If a car runs over a person and kills him on a road without surveillance video, and the person who was run over cannot provide evidence, then the owner of the car is not guilty?"

"Both parties said that it was Xie Siyu who hit the person, so Xie Siyu must have hit the person. Unless Xie Siyu can produce evidence that she did not hit the person, such as a dashcam video, she should bear full responsibility for this case. If she hit the person, why doesn't she take responsibility?"

"Bullying our client because he doesn't understand the law and evidence, so Xie Siyu doesn't have to bear any responsibility for hitting someone?"
