Two Hundred and Ninetieth Chapters Can Not Lose the Momentum
As Gu Nianzhi said, he took out his laptop and connected it to the projector in the courtroom. After connecting it, he explained to everyone: "Everyone knows that Ms. Luo Xinxue passed away ten years ago. Her death was once judged as a suicide. However, the recent autopsy by Dr. Zhu, a famous military forensic doctor, proved that Ms. Luo did not commit suicide, but died of murder."
"Objection. Ten years have passed since Luo Xinxue's case, and the prosecution period has long passed. This case should never have been filed." Jin Dazhuang threw out the first "objection" today.
Gu Nianzhi raised his eyebrows, Jin Dazhuang really looked down on him as a rookie, and used this kind of "opposition" full of mistakes to try to win the first place.
Gu Nianzhi fought back without hesitation, and said coldly: "Jin Dazhuang, you are really ashamed of your reputation. According to the law of the Chinese Empire, there is no prosecution period for murder cases and it will be valid forever. Seeing you like this, you can become the chief of JD Law Firm Now, I think my future is bright.”
Jin Dazhuang became furious and protested to the judge: "Objection! What the opposing lawyer said has nothing to do with this case!"
"You are the defendant's chief lawyer. I have doubts about your professional ability. Why is it irrelevant to this case?" Gu Nianzhi retorted, unwilling to lose his momentum at all.
The judge was suffocated by her, the corners of his lips curled up slightly, and he nodded to Gu Nianzhi: "It's not directly related, it's better to say less."
"Yes, Your Honor." Gu Nianzhi stopped talking nonsense, picked up a laser stick in his hand, and pointed it at the large screen hanging on the wall on one side of the courtroom.
The projector was turned on, and a cold room appeared on the big screen.
Then the camera turned and fell to the distant view of a corpse placed on the operating table.
Gu Nianzhi pointed at the image of the body with a laser pointer, "This is Luo Xinxue's body that has been quietly stored in the underground freezer of the Military General Hospital for ten years. Mother."
"...Our purpose is to prove that Luo Xinxue's death was not a suicide, but a homicide. And our only direct evidence may only be this body." The small red dot on the laser bar in Gu Nianzhi's hand circled the big screen Draw a range on Luo Xinxue's body, "Let's say this evidence is small, it is indeed too thin. But if it is big, it is the most powerful evidence. Because there is nothing that the body can't tell you."
The judge nodded, looked at the big screen intently and asked, "...what did you find?"
"...the most critical piece of evidence is here." Gu Nianzhi said, typing twice on the laptop to call up a photo.
This time, it was a clearer photo of Luo Xinxue's body.
She lies on the dissecting table with her eyes closed, the white drape pulled over her chest, exposing her shoulders.
His face was so pale that it was bluish, without any decay, and there was an obvious cut on his neck.
Gu Nianzhi pointed to the incision and said, "This is where Dr. Zhu made the incision. You can see her throat all the way to the stomach."
The people in the court stared at the big screen, and they were a little nervous, knowing that there must be a major discovery, otherwise Gu Nianzhi would not have listed this photo on purpose.
Sure enough, Gu Nianzhi pulled out another photo: "Look, here is a side cut of the dead man's throat muscles. It was convulsed so badly that it was almost impossible to swallow the pills."
"...I remember that Luo Xinxue's autopsy report said that she committed suicide by swallowing sleeping pills. If her larynx spasms so badly, how did she swallow the sleeping pills?" Gu Nianzhi grasped the key point and made the first obvious one The doubts were thrown out.
"This is the biggest doubt. In this convulsive state, unless the pills are pushed into her throat with external force, otherwise, she will not be able to swallow them all by herself, and will definitely spit them out." Forensic doctor Zhu made the final decision. As an expert witness, he announced that the possibility of murder in this case was far greater than suicide.
It was also with such important evidence that the Imperial Capital Intermediate Court announced the case.
After the Bai family knew that the case was filed, they immediately used the reason that the case might involve secrets,
Apply for the court to hear the case in secret.
Regarding this point, even Huo Shaoheng did not object.
Therefore, the trial of this case will only be attended by both the prosecution and the defense and their families, and will not be open to the media or the public.
Huo Shaoheng only proposed that the final trial results must be made public.
This was also accepted by the court.
When Gu Nianzhi was at home, he knew the cause and effect, and admired Huo Shaoheng even more.
From New Year's Eve to now, in less than a month, Huo Shaoheng, in addition to completing his own work and dealing with the trouble that Miss Dou suddenly brought back, unexpectedly put Bai Jinyi's case on the agenda in an orderly manner.
From the selection of expert witnesses to the preparation of testimonies in court, nothing is left behind.
Gu Nianzhi looked back at Huo Shaoheng, who was calm and calm, and sat down with a victorious expression on his face. Immediately, there were whispers of discussions in the courtroom.
At this time, Bai Jinyi's defense lawyer Jin Dazhuang asked again: "Miss Gu, I have a question."
"Please say."
"How do you prove that the spasm of the throat muscles of the deceased was caused before death? Not after death?"
Gu Nianzhi was slightly taken aback, this was indeed a misunderstanding. After a person dies, there will indeed be muscle spasms due to various reasons.
However, after the discovery of this discovery by Forensic Doctor Zhu, he immediately concluded that it was caused before death, so the conclusion that the deceased committed suicide by swallowing sleeping pills was not valid.
The question raised by the defendant's lawyer just hit the misunderstanding of their judgment, and it is indeed very sharp.
This golden shape does have a few brushes.
If Gu Nianzhi and the others can't come up with a reasonable explanation, then the court will definitely invalidate Zhu's conclusion based on the principle of "no doubt" so that it cannot be murder.
The courtroom was suddenly quiet, the sound of the central air conditioner was originally very subtle, but in this silence, the subtle sound seemed to be amplified, and Gu Nianzhi could only hear the constant buzzing sound, which seemed to be successful. Thousands of bees spread their wings and fly at the same time.
She frowns at her laptop screen.
The screen saver of Gu Nianzhi's computer screen is dynamic.
A rare black orchid bloomed on the screen, and the little seven-star ladybug slowly climbed up the vines of the orchid until it reached the petals of the orchid shaped like an upside-down bucket. The veins of the petals fell deep into the orchid.
Looking at this picture, Gu Nianzhi suddenly had a vague idea in his mind.
The seven-star ladybug fell into the orchid, but who can prove how the ladybug got in?
Did it fall in by yourself, or did someone else stuff it in?
... If there are no witnesses, maybe only the seven-spotted ladybug can prove it.
Gu Nianzhi thought about it, his eyes lit up, and he turned around and asked, "Forensic Doctor Zhu, can you prove that the sleeping pills entered the deceased's stomach before the throat muscle spasm, or after the muscle spasm?"
If it had entered the stomach of the deceased before the spasm of the laryngeal muscles, it would be entirely possible to commit suicide by swallowing sleeping pills, and Zhu's previous conclusions were likely to be overturned by the opposing lawyer.
Only by proving that the sleeping pills entered the stomach of the deceased after the spasm of the laryngeal muscles can it be proved that the death of the deceased was indeed murder, not suicide.
Zhu Fayi thought about it, took the laser pointer from Gu Nianzhi's hand, pointed at the picture, and said slowly: "Everyone can take a closer look at this side cut of the larynx. There are relatively serious scratches in it. Sleeping pills left behind when they are forced down the throat. If the throat muscles are in normal condition, swallowing such a dose of pills will not have this effect."
Gu Nianzhi secretly breathed a sigh of relief. She took back the laser pointer from Fayi Zhu and nodded, "Thank you for your professional explanation." Then she turned to look at the other party's chief lawyer, Jin Dazang, "You are satisfied with this answer. ?"
Jin Dazhuang smiled, "We will verify the photos again. Also, we request to send a third-party neutral forensic doctor to re-dissect Luo Xinxue's body."
"Are you doubting Fayi Zhu's professionalism?" Gu Nianzhi reacted quickly, and immediately made Fayi Zhu glaring at Jin Dazhuang.
"It's not a suspicion. But forensic doctor Zhu is a member of the military department, and we should ask an impartial and independent third party to conduct an autopsy."
