North American Rough Police: Starting from the Los Angeles Patrol

In the morning, Locke came down the stairs wearing a black suit and his hair was gelled. He looked very handsome. Because he had to go to court today, he went to the law firm to sign the documents yesterday afternoon and then went back to Beverly with Marianne. The mountain villa.

Marian, Li Bo, Jet, and Hannah were sitting at the dining table having breakfast.

When the court starts today, only Marianne and Li Bo will go there together, while Jeter and Hannah will go to school as usual.

With the lessons learned last time, they also agreed with Locke's caution and tried not to appear in public together as a family.

Marianne's eyes lit up when she saw Locke's attire, and then she said angrily: "I told you to wear formal clothes, not Zegna!"

Locke was stunned: "Didn't you ask me to respect the court?"

Marianne stood up and walked towards him, "You only think about respecting the court, but what about the victim's family? You are dressed so brightly, and others think you are going to a party? This will stir up the emotions of the victim's family..."

Li Bo also said: "Listen to your mother, she is professional!"

Locke was speechless. He had been preparing for a while and had to follow Marianne upstairs, but this time he came down quickly.

Marianne found Locke's formal uniform from the CSU (California State University) football team. It also had the CSU football team's logo on it. This dark gray suit was customized from the American local clothing brand Brooksbrother. It is both low-key and able to show regional characteristics.

Marian crossed her hands and looked at Locke, and nodded: "It looks much better now. It is low-key and restrained, but also full of vitality. The CSU logo should also increase the favor of the jury. Although it is not a famous school, with the reputation of CSU graduates Joining LAPD with your identity is also a very positive thing. Most people will be tolerant of a righteous young man with a bright future and will be willing to give him another chance..."

Locke shrugged, "I'm even a little nervous because of what you said!"

Li Bo urged: "Come here for breakfast first!"

……

Court Lounge.

Locke met again with his defense lawyer, Wesson Smith. This was the second meeting. The main reason was that the case was relatively simple and there was no need to do too much homework.

Wesson Smith is a litigator at Ham Law Firm. Although Ham Law Firm's main business is commercial disputes, it also has litigation business.

After exchanging pleasantries, Marianne smiled and said: "Weisen, I'm counting on you today!"

Wesson Smith looked at Locke's clothes and saw that there was nothing missing. He smiled and said, "Marian, I paid for it!"

Marian also realized that her words were a bit redundant, and nodded: "Okay, then I'll leave it to you!"

Wesson Smith said to Locke: "Marian should explain to you. When you go to court later, you must remain serious. Although you have done a just thing, you must respect life, so you must not laugh. Yes, that's it. , stay cool, don’t have extra looks, and don’t need to act..."

"When facing cross-examination by the other party's lawyer, you just need to tell the truth. If you encounter a question you don't want to answer, just say you don't want to answer it, and leave all other matters to me..."

"The judge's impression is also very important, so you must let the judge see that you respect him. What's wrong?"

Locke turned to look at Marianne, who tilted her head towards Wesson Smith and whispered: "Judge Jeff Davis is the husband of the female police superintendent Locke saved..."

Wesson Smith was startled for a moment, then smiled and said: "Marian, if you tell me the news in advance, I will give you a discount!"

……

Locke had always been very relaxed, but after sitting in the dock of the court, he felt inexplicably nervous. It was not because he was afraid of overturning the case, but because he hated the feeling of being judged.

We must prevent such things from happening in the future, and no one can judge him.

Well, it seems that the Gaviotas State Forest Park case also needs to go to court, as both a witness and a defendant.

Listening to the court stating the case, Locke's eyes moved from Jeff Davis to the jury aside.

It was not 12 people, but 8 people, some were male and some were female, some were old and some were young, and their skin colors were very politically correct, white, black, brown, and yellow. He found that these people listened very carefully. .

In fact, he has always scorned the so-called jury system, thinking that this system is fucked because the jury members rely entirely on their own subjective judgments.

I heard from Marian that some powerful lawyers can deduce the jury's tendencies by observing and analyzing the background, personality, handling logic, and facial expressions of the jury members, and thus know the voting results in advance.

Locke always kept in mind Marianne and Wesson Smith's instructions not to make too many small movements or have too many expressions, so he could only observe the people in the court through the corner of his eyes.

Because of his identity, the case was not heard in public. There were not many people in the gallery, all of them were family members.

Marianne and Li Bo looked serious. It was obvious that although the case would not be repeated, they were still worried.

There are more than a dozen family members of the four deceased, including elderly people and children. It is inevitable to feel sympathy when they see them.

Most of the people in this group stared at him with complicated eyes, and several of them had hatred mixed with them.

Suddenly, Locke's peripheral vision caught a woman with a temperament that was very different from other family members. This woman was dressed very brightly, wearing a white Chanel slim dress, with a hot figure, a Hermès leather bag on her thigh, and a pair of Sunglasses cover her delicate and beautiful face.

However, despite this, it can still be seen that this woman is definitely a beauty, with frivolous and sexy red lips, a white swan-like neck, and tall and winding ravines...

As the court officially opened, the woman took off her sunglasses. Locke was startled and immediately thought of who this woman was!

Randy is not bragging. This woman is indeed very beautiful, no less beautiful than a Hollywood movie star.

This woman should be the trigger for the collapse of the Copernicus organization. Avna, the girlfriend of Sam Brown, the second-in-command of the Copernicus organization, was killed because Nathan tore off the straps of her suspender skirt while enforcing the law. Everything happened next.

Isn't this woman also wanted?

How dare you appear in court openly? Well, he should have been released on bail.

I had a romantic relationship with a woman last time, but I didn’t expect to see her today. She was really beautiful. She still appeared in the court as a widow. Is this white dress a tribute to Sam Brown?

Locke's eyes narrowed. This woman was not as simple as a vase. Just because she felt that Nathan had offended her, she sent out gunmen to teach Nathan a lesson.

Although this matter was fueled by the Copernicus organization, this woman is definitely not a light-hearted person, she is a perfect black widow!

Locke originally thought that with the death of Sam Brown and the destruction of the Copernicus organization, this woman would disappear, but he didn't expect that she would still be so high-profile!

The white Hermès crocodile bag on his thigh seemed to have just been released. He had seen it in the "Vogue" he subscribed to at home. It seemed to cost tens of thousands of dollars. It seemed that this woman was not a money digger attached to Sam Brown!

Locke suddenly made a decision in his heart, this woman could not stay.

Because not only did this woman look at him with hatred in her eyes, she also glanced at Marianne and Li Bo several times!

Damn it, I thought I could be stable for a while, but the trees are still but the wind is not stopping!
