two people's agreement

No matter how sad, life always goes on.

Dani has returned to her previous work status, announcing to her colleagues that the three veteran lawyers who joined the firm at the beginning of its establishment will be promoted to senior partners to jointly participate in the operation of the firm.

Now she is more relaxed than before, allowing her to handle more cases.

Virginia Court of Appeals.

For a criminal lawsuit, Danni's client, Froddy, is an underage boy who is charged with first-degree murder, illegal entry, and possession of prohibited drugs.

After seeing the client appear in her office, Dani saw despair and remorse in his eyes, as if if she refused, his life would end here.

Dani immediately took over the case and brought the boy, who was still in shock, to contact his parents.

On the way to send Froddy to the police station, Dani learned about the details. Froddy said that he and his friend went to another friend's house to get some "good things". The patrolling security found that Froddy fled through the rear window in a panic.On the road, I saw the news that the security guard had died, and the police had already caught a prisoner, who was his friend.An accomplice who escaped from the city is being apprehended.

In court, the state prosecutor filed charges of first-degree murder, illegal trespass, and possession of prohibited drugs without direct or indirect evidence such as DNA, dander, or witnesses pointing to Frodi killing the security guard.

Before the trial, Danni negotiated with the prosecutor according to the usual practice. It may be based on the principle that same-sex repulsion. Danni doesn’t recruit much. This noble and kind prosecutor lady refused to accept any negotiations and insisted on letting the court and the jury decide .

"Mr. Security, you just said that you rushed to the scene after receiving the victim's request for help. What time was that?" Sitting on the witness stand was the victim's colleague, who had been questioned by the prosecutor just now.Now Dany began the questioning.

"It was about [-]:[-], and I just checked the time and was ready to call my child goodnight when I was about to give it to thirty."

"Then what time did you arrive at the scene?"

"At 21:[-], I was very close to him."

"What did you see at the scene?"

"Bob was lying on the stairs bleeding profusely from his abdomen. I called 911 and saw the man standing in the open front door of the house. I turned around and ran into the back room. I was trying to stop the bleeding for Bob, so I couldn't go there. Chase. Just watch him run away." He said, pointing to Freddie beside Dani.

"That is to say, 2 minutes after the incident, my client was still at the scene. Do you think this is reasonable? The first time a person kills a person is not to run away, but to stay there and wait for others to catch him. Or can we say My client had been in the owner's house the whole time, and when the security guard arrived, my client had just walked to the front door and had no idea what was going on."

"No. Your Honor. This is Miss Walker's subjective guess, which is not supported by evidence."

"The objection is valid."

"I have no problem." Dany confirmed the information she wanted, then returned to her seat and sat down, comforting the very disturbed Freddy.

The second witness was a police detective who was called to the scene.Ms. Prosecutor had previously confirmed the detective's statement from Freddie's friend.

"How soon after the homicide did you catch my client's friend?"

"It was about 3 minutes after receiving the alarm, around 24:[-]. After I heard the prisoner escape, I saw this man running away in a panic on the street, so I chased him."

"3 minutes." Dani repeated to confirm the side, "According to what you said, it is near No. ××× ××× Avenue, south of the crime scene."

"Correct."

"You suspected that Michael was the murderer before you caught him. Why did you later believe that my client was the real murderer? Is it just because of Michael's confession? What if it is perjury?"

"It's impossible, it's impossible in just a few minutes!"

"Okay, I'm done asking." He gave Freddy a firm look, and told him in a low voice that it's okay now, and the next step is the main event.

Dani's two witness interviews were so understated, and the noble and kind Miss Prosecutor couldn't help but hesitate.

The final witness is the prosecution's tainted witness, Freddie's friend Michael.

Dressed in a suit, he sat humbly on the witness stand to take the oath.

The prosecutor should ask first.

"It was Freddie who said that he would take me to find some good stuff. When I got there, I realized that I was going to break in. Freddie said that this friend didn't mind, but I was scared, so he asked me to wait for him in the front yard. I was hiding in the bushes in the front yard and I saw the security guard named Bob find Freddie and argue on the stairs and then the guard fell and Freddie had a bloody knife in his hand. Then Freddie Dee turned and went back into the house, probably trying to wash the blood off his hands. I was very scared and ran away until I was caught by the police."

As he narrated, Dany kept reassuring Freddie of his agitation.

"He's lying!" Freddy gritted his teeth excitedly.

"I know, it's okay, let him talk freely now." Dani's assistant lawyer hurried in and handed her a document.

"Freddy, we are good friends, but they say that perjury is a felony, so I can't help you." Michael cried to Freddy with guilt.

Miss Prosecutor ended the questioning.

Dani stood up, propping up the table with one hand in a leisurely manner, leaning against the edge of the table, her brows slightly frowned, and a sentence with unclear meaning came out.

"Michael, are you religious?"

"Your Honor, I object! This has nothing to do with the case." Miss Prosecutor stood up.

"The objection is valid," the judge ruled.

"Okay, I take it back."

Dani walked up to Michael, "You said that my client took you to that house on the day of the crime, and said it was his friend's house. Is that right?"

"Yes."

"Do you know the owner?"

"know."

"How did you meet?"

"I bought it from him after I became infected with marijuana, but I didn't know that the house Freddy went to was his."

"You said you didn't go into that house? You just hid in the bushes in the front yard for a while, didn't you?"

"Yes."

"How long have you been hiding? Please tell me the exact time."

"About 10 minutes."

"From what time to what time?"

"About eleven o'clock to eleven twenty, the security guard fell down, and I ran away."

"you sure?"

"determine."

"I heard Freddie say that you've been taking care of him since high school, haven't you?"

"I object, Your Honor, to Miss Walker inducing witnesses."

"It's okay, I can answer." Michael said with an attitude that I don't care if I don't feel wronged. "Yes, we are best friends. But it doesn't mean that he killed someone, so I have to cover him. I believe he didn't mean it. Please treat him fairly."

The jury who watched his behavior nodded unanimously.

"You're a year older than Freddy, are you an adult now? Why are you hanging out with the shy Freddy?"

"He's like my brother."

"Were you wet when you were arrested? It wasn't mentioned in the report written by the detective." Dany didn't continue to ask, but turned around and switched to another topic.

"I object, Your Honor, what does this have to do with the weather?" Miss Prosecutor immediately stood up.

"Your Honor, this is the new evidence submitted by our side, the property regulations of the community at the scene of the crime and the specific implementation methods." Dani handed over the documents she had just obtained to the court. "In particular, the second line on page 4 is about the implementation method of the automatic sprinkler system in this community. The family where the incident occurred strictly followed this article, and automatic spraying was carried out every night from [-]:[-] to [-]:[-]. If you were Standing in the bushes, you're supposed to be soaking wet, and you can't change your clothes for four minutes. Because you're not there, you're with the security guards."

Michael's face began to turn pale.

"No! Your Honor, induce witnesses."

"I take it back." Dany didn't argue with the prosecutor on this issue. "This is a psychological evaluation report I got about you, typical sexual dominance personality, do you like to control everything in your hands, for example, this time, you have long been with Mr. Bob because he found There was a conflict in selling the so-called good news to his son, you deliberately tricked Freddie there when the owner was away, then killed Bob, and blamed him, right?"

"No! There is no evidence for all of this, it's just Miss Walker's guess." Miss Prosecutor panicked.

"Temporarily adjourn the court, and continue in 10 minutes." Your Honor made a final decision.

After the crowd dispersed, only the judge and the defenders of both parties remained in the courtroom.
