Chapter 539 539 Strong Response
Hugo's answer made the scene quiet for a moment. Those who were familiar with Hugo were stunned at this moment. This was a Hugo they had never seen before. It was sensitive, sharp, direct, and powerful. Those who were not familiar with Hugo were The people at this time were even more stunned. They did not expect that Hugo would stand so firmly in expressing his support for Michael Jackson.
rustic. Child molestation is a very terrifying thing, and this is the case all over the world. There is no room for relaxation in the punishment of related situations under US law.
In 2013, there was such a case in the United States. A Chinese father raised his daughter alone and helped his daughter bathe until she was ten years old. This is not uncommon in the Eastern world, but it is not the case in the West. When a school Asked the girl "Who will help you take a bath?" The girl answered "Dad", which made the school call the police immediately. As a result, the court deprived the father of custody. After the father resisted, he was arrested. Killed by police.
This incident reflects not only the cultural differences between the East and the West, but also the protection of children in Western countries.
So, this time Michael was involved in prostitution. When a child is suspected of being a child, the denunciation of the whole society is very terrible. As Evan Chandler said, this can ruin Michael's reputation, and he will not even be able to sell a record in the future. In fact, not to mention standing on the stage, it is estimated that Michael's public appearance in the future will become very difficult.
Under such circumstances, even though all the evidence at present is more favorable to Michael, in fact, many artists dare not directly stand up and clearly state their position, and most of them are prudent to protect themselves. Because after all, the recording evidence made by Chandler and his son himself, and Jordan's direct testimony as a party, have not been refuted.
Hugo's firm stance is very surprising at this time. Qiaoqiao was simply frightened by Hugo's terrifying eyes, and could only rely on Ben. Neng's response said, "So... so you're saying, this is malicious hype by the news media?"
When Hugo used the Rodney King incident to compare what happened to Michael Jackson this time, the meaning couldn't be more obvious: it's all the media.
In the face of Jojo's question, if Hugo nodded, it would have overturned all the media and stood on the opposite side of the media; if Hugo shook his head, then he must come up with a self-justifying explanation, otherwise it will be inconsistent. . Standing outside the recording studio, Henry couldn't help sweating. Even though he was calm and calm, he was still in a panic. Hugo was completely detonating a volcano right now.
Not to mention Henry, even Samora, Neil and the others could feel this huge trap. Almost everyone swallowed a mouthful of saliva involuntarily, but found that their throats were frighteningly dry.
"Yes, that's what I meant." Hugo replied neatly and made the scene silent, but there was exclamation in front of the radio. Whether it was surprise or surprise, sudden celebration or cursing, that "oh" was really Contains too many emotions.
Henry relaxed in one breath, and he couldn't help rubbing his forehead. Although he had been nervous just now, after Hugo answered, Henry was a little relaxed, because he knew what kind of situation he was going to face next, and at least he could start thinking about how to deal with it.
"Those reporters think they are the uncrowned kings, but look at their actions, it's like peeking at the neighbor's trash can to see if there is waste that can be resold. For their own interests, they don't hesitate to report the news according to their own position, maybe only part of the report. Facts, or they may exaggerate facts that are not fully confirmed, and may even report their own speculations and conjectures as facts, just for ratings and sales. Under such circumstances, the so-called freedom of speech is only for them to seek more It's just a means of profit, it's shameful!"
After Hugo said it, he turned on the fire and vented all the thoughts in his heart directly. This made Qiaoqiao unable to say a word as a position, and he felt as if he had stabbed a hornet's nest.
"Look at the Rodney King incident. The TV station edited the video that included the truth just for better news. What happened? The lawsuit that lasted nearly three years has destroyed two families. .But what about the TV station? A mere 'sorry' solves everything, maybe they are still complacent and think they have fulfilled their duty to reveal the truth, but the truth is that what they call the truth is only part of the truth that is in their own interests. Once, too!"
In the eyes of outsiders, it is difficult for them to understand Hugo's anger, because the evidence that has been released so far is ambiguous. Some of the evidence is in favor of Michael, but the real key part cannot be obtained. Similarly, Jordan's testimony is also a key factor, but the truth of the testimony is Fakes are also unproven. Therefore, everyone is in a foggy state, and the reporters are also "trying to uncover the truth" and making continuous efforts. Then Hugo's decisive attitude is very puzzling.
But Hugo knew all the truths, and he also knew the bloody future behind them. Therefore, Hugo was excited. This was the first time since he traveled that he lost his mind because of the facts of the future he knew. Maybe he only saw Michael Jackson once, but Michael's great position in the history of music could not be Obliteration, what's more, Hugo himself has experienced those slanders and ridicules. He knows that feeling, and now this feeling must be magnified ten times and a hundred times in Michael, which makes Hugo have to vent all his inner thoughts.
Hugo is defending Michael, and at the same time he is fighting against those shameful media who use the name of "freedom of speech" to slander them!
"Look at what the media do, they're all making money by reporting this bad news, they're even going so far as to get so-called vacations, and someone buys top-secret evidence from the police at all costs. Why this criminal case? , under the circumstance that it should be protected by a non-disclosure agreement, there are still news breaking out? This is obviously someone inside leaked the news, has anyone noticed this? Did someone accuse the media of obstructing justice? Or someone accused the justice Do you know the law and break the law within the unit?" Hugo tugged at the corners of his mouth mockingly, "No, of course not, because in the face of a top star's revelations, these are not important, and the pursuit of truth by media reporters even surpasses the law. above!"
Hugo's remarks were like a wake-up call that silenced the listeners in front of the radio, and they really didn't notice it, to be precise, in Michael Jackson's molestation. Under the stimulation of gossip about children's cases, who will notice whether the source of these news is legitimate? police. It is only natural that the information leaked inside the police bureau, and no one will pursue it at all.
"Look at those papers, before the evidence was sorted and the prosecutors didn't even deliver a verdict, they had front-page headlines implying Michael's guilt. Doesn't that sound familiar to you? Yes, Rodney - That's what the newspapers did in the King case, and they're doing it again now. No, there are countless cases, because the uncrowned kings think they can use the power of justice to make judgments, even the power of God to make judgments "The so-called freedom of speech has inflated them to the point of losing themselves."
Hugo's words were deafening and made the entire recording studio quiet. Everyone was listening to Hugo's words, except for one person, Henry. Henry was also listening, but he was still thinking about how to deal with the reporter's attack next. As you can imagine, this storm will definitely not be too mild.
"If you are willing to calm down and look at the sources of those newspapers' reports, the so-called exclusive interviews, the so-called exclusive reports, then you will know whether these media are seeking the truth or seeking benefits!" Hugo said very angrily and helplessly. , "They found a former guard of Neverland to come and speak, saying that he was fired because he knew too much, and made outrageous rumors such as the destruction of the boy's fruit photo, but have you checked the guard's identity? Background, is his testimony credible, and whether his words can be testified in court? No, reporters are simply reporting, not even pursuing the authenticity of these remarks."
"Then the reporter found a waitress who had been fired in 1991, and she described with certainty how Michael treated the boy in 1992, and importantly, none of this was given to the police to investigate the case, and It was sold to the news media for tens of thousands of dollars. God, are these uncrowned kings really looking for the truth?”
Hugo laughed when he said this, but he was actually doing the whole thing. There were too many loopholes in the process of the children's case, even ridiculous. Except for Jordan's testimony, there was no evidence, but it was fueled by the news media and went to a terrible abyss.
"One of the most absurd rumors I've ever heard is that the 'National Enquirer' had an exclusive report that Macaulay Culkin was involved, and after Macaulay vehemently denied it, the 'National Enquirer' said that McCawley was involved. Li Shi was unwilling to stand up and admit the truth under the pressure of Michael. Look, this is the truth of the so-called uncrowned king, there is no evidence, they all rely on their pen to state the facts, I never knew, it turned out that there was no evidence and no witnesses Under the circumstances, it can actually be convicted of a crime!"
Hugo's words made everyone in front of the radio quiet down. This case caused an uproar in the entire Greater Los Angeles area, and Hugo's strong response today is bound to add fuel to the fire of this case, but Hugo did not. Regret, he must be unwavering in expressing his position.
"Recall carefully, apart from the testimony of the client Jordan, what evidence can be used? And is anyone willing to listen to the testimony of another client, Michael? No. Think carefully, what exactly is this incident? Who's to blame, whose greed makes everything out of control!"
Greed, one of the seven deadly sins, drove Chandler to take risks, even forcing his son to give false testimony; it also drove the news media to ignore facts and blindly pursue breaking points, and even fabricated facts for profit. How ridiculous and how sad.
