You promised not to get angry, but now you are angry?
After Qin Huai waited for Wang Dengming to wake up, he said, "The policewoman next to you is so fierce. It looks like she wants to kill me with a gun."
Of course Jones Medi would not kill Qin Huai, but Wang Dengming looked at him with special admiration.
"Chief, what do you mean?"
"Master, next step, what kind of catastrophe do you think will be followed by my peach blossom tribulation? How should I solve it?"
"Pour the tea."
"Okay, pour the tea."
Wang Dengming poured him a cup of tea very seriously.
"Your calamity has turned into your luck. Sheriff, you are very lucky, but there will be many calamities ahead of you. The best way is to stop doing it and go back to China. Why do you have to stay in the United States?"
"Three years ago, if you asked me to go back like this, I would definitely leave. But I can't do that now. My love life has just begun and I can't bear to leave. You don't know. If the prosecutor-general didn't say anything, you would be jealous."
"It's hard for a hero to be a beauty. Sheriff, do you like American girls?"
"Change the word, bear is sad about beauty. I don't have to like American girls, but if I meet her, I can't be polite. I'm not a good person, a good man and a believer in women."
"I see, Sheriff, you are destined to have two evil spirits, and your murderous intent is indeed very strong. However, it is easy to dodge open guns, but hard to guard against hidden arrows. In fact, you can change your role."
"Did you hear something again?"
"No, your personality is to easily offend others, except women, especially beauties. Be careful with women. If you die one day, I suspect you were not shot to death, but were tricked to death by a woman."
Sheriff Wang stretched out his thumb and said with a smile: "You really can tell fortunes. Just tell me what I will do next. There is a gang called the Shark Gang who has been trying to kill me several times."
"Why?"
"They're drug dealers."
"I understand, let me do the math"
The master calculated with his fingers and said: "At least this month, you will not be in danger. You should concentrate on fighting your lawsuit."
Wang Dengming held his chin and stared at Qin Huai again.
"Is there writing on my face?"
"No, Master, I have an idea. I have a feeling that if you stay in the United States and we two brothers work together, we might be able to become famous."
Qin Huai blinked his eyes and did not answer.
"Okay, I know, everyone has their own ambitions, it's just talk. Thank you, I'll give you tea instead of wine."
Qin Huai picked up the tea cup and said, "At least until the human skin picture is figured out, I will stay in the United States."
"The secret of this picture is what you will do if you never become famous in your lifetime."
"Then I will stay in the United States for the rest of my life."
"Okay, I hope you will never be able to figure this picture out for the rest of your life. Come on, master, and have a good time cooperating."
"Hmph, okay, happy to cooperate. How about you stay at my place instead of the police station?"
"Let's wait until you win the case."
After get off work, Wang Dengming would arrive at his residence, and Jones-Medy had gone back long ago, sitting on the sofa and pretending to watch TV.
"What's wrong, honey?"
"Wang Dengming, I now wonder if you have fallen in love with Fengge Lilong?"
"You and I don't understand what you mean."
"You understand, you just like her. Let's have dinner."

Three days later, a trial was held at the old court in the town. Three lawyers and a team of lawyers came from the Anti-Corruption Bureau. It seemed that they were determined to send Wang Dengming to prison. Sheriff Wang couldn't figure it out. Why did we offend the people from the Anti-Corruption Bureau, so we need to start such a big battle?
However, he quickly calmed down, and Fengge Lilong also formed a team of lawyers, also numbering three.
Is this an honor or a misfortune? Wang Dengming doesn't know.
The prosecutor who prosecuted the case was sent by the Municipal Anti-Corruption Bureau. His name was Sau Ting. He was in his forties and had big ears. The earlobes were like those of Buddha statues. Generally speaking, people with such thick earlobes should be charitable and soft-hearted. However, this guy looks very sinister, with a pair of green eyes that always make people think of wild ghosts or something.
The jury is also a grand jury. Normally there are twelve people on the jury, but this one is twenty-four.
The jury system refers to a system in which a specific number of citizens with the right to vote participate in deciding whether a suspect should be prosecuted and whether he is guilty.
Juries in the United States are randomly selected from registered voters within the jurisdiction of the court where the crime occurred. They come from various professions, and many are laypeople.
Because they are laymen, the jurors selected to be jurors will be focused on the sentence and penalties imposed if the case is established or not. The jurors only need to vote on guilt or innocence. Therefore, the key force in a lawsuit is to look at the prosecution of both parties. The defense lawyer's skills and whether he has enough evidence and eloquence to conquer the jurors in the jury.
Of course, this is not entirely without tricks.
The first is that people related to the case, including those related to the plaintiff or defendant, are not allowed to be selected.
When selecting a jury, in order to be fair and ensure that the jury established can truly represent the people in the most general sense, the judge will select randomly from the voting list or telephone number book of the election station. After the primary election, there is a strict screening, mainly to eliminate some candidates with psychological tendencies due to environment and experience, and to avoid possible unfair judgments.
In addition to the judge's review, juror candidates are also subject to review by defense attorneys and prosecutors, who all have veto power over juror candidates. In addition, the lawyers of both sides only have the power of veto, and any juror selected must be approved by both parties at the same time.
In a normal case, a juror can go home at any time and have a substitute juror take over.
But if it is a major case, they must be isolated.
In this way, all the information they get is the evidence that is allowed to be presented in court, and their judgment will not be affected by speculation from the press and illegal evidence. Since jurors are sworn in, they have far less information than the general public. They were allowed to know only what the judge determined they could hear and see. Jurors are not allowed to read newspapers or watch TV news, so they know nothing about things that happen outside the court, such as the press conference held by the defense lawyer, the statements of the victim's family, etc.
During this period, when the jurors went to the food store to buy food, they were followed by bailiffs to ensure that they did not come into contact with the outside world. Jurors are not allowed to communicate with each other and discuss the case until the entire case is concluded and handed over to them for decision. In short, everything is done to protect them from emotions and non-evidence from all walks of life in order to maintain a fair verdict. It can be said that during this period, the jurors had less freedom than the suspects in the case.
There are also many controversies about the American jury system. It appears to be the weakest link in the American justice system. The jurors were randomly selected, and the people who came were of all kinds, with different races and skin colors, regardless of whether they were employed or not, and regardless of their knowledge and culture. In the United States, the most powerful legal team is the legal team. Why do we need to find a group of "laymen" to be "judges above judges"? In the United States, all those who understand and agree with this system never think that it is a perfect system, but they just cannot find a better system than it.
Of course, the jury system has obvious weaknesses. All "rule of law" will have the confusion of "rule of man." The initial legislation, trial, and final judgment all have the participation of "people." The theory behind the design of the jury system is that if everything is clear and obvious at a glance, ordinary people's intelligence will be enough to judge. The reason why Americans insist on using the jury system is because jurors are the least likely to be manipulated and controlled by anyone.
Because of this, when encountering many jurors, they will give their own explanations, which will also have a certain impact on the lawyers of the prosecution and defense. If several jurors deliberately cause trouble at the same time, it may affect the judge's decision. Decisiveness, although this is rare, does happen sometimes.
As for Wang Dengming's large jury, most of them were selected by Fengge Lilong's legal team, because this is Gumeng Town, Alaska, not Polson City.
The people from the Anti-Corruption Bureau had always wanted to escort Wang Denming back to the city for trial, but Fengge Lilong insisted on trying it in the town's court. In the end, the people from the Anti-Corruption Bureau agreed.
