Chapter 2055 The Prosecutor and the Defense

With the fall of the gavel by the presiding judge, today's trial officially began.

Lian Juntai was wearing a prison uniform and sitting in the dock. On his left and right were the prosecutor and his defense. While in custody, the police had interrogated him in various ways, but he had refused to cooperate.

Now that he was in court, with an eloquent defense lawyer, he didn't need to say a word. He sat in the dock with great calmness and composure.

When the trial begins, the prosecutor will speak first.

At this moment, Tan Zheng was sitting in the hearing seat very nervously, staring at Zou Ting who was sitting in the prosecution seat.

"Hello, respected judge, I am Zou Ting, the chief prosecutor of this case. Today, I will read out the indictment against the criminal suspect Lian Juntai..."

Zou Ting read the indictment against Lian Juntai in a sonorous voice, and then presented the relevant physical evidence of the case on the big screen.

"After a forensic autopsy, the cause of death of the victim Lian Juncheng was consistent with mechanical asphyxiation caused by being buried by sand. The autopsy report showed that the deceased inhaled sand and gravel into his lungs. After testing, the sand and gravel in the deceased's body were exactly the same as the sand and gravel in the South City Administrative Hall.

From this, it can be concluded that the construction site of the Nancheng Administrative Hall that was under construction at the time was the first crime scene, and this construction site was under the full responsibility of the suspect Lian Juntai. Based on the time of death given by the forensic doctor and the testimonies of many witnesses, it can be determined that Lian Juntai was at the crime scene that night.

He extracted the victim's fingerprints not only at the crime scene, but also at the table where they had dinner together, which was the suspect's private dining room table, where he had a meal with the deceased before he was killed.

I would like to emphasize here that the suspect has a severe mysophobia. Not only the servants are not allowed to enter the study room at home, but also his biological father and brother are not allowed to enter. This is evidenced by the testimony of the servants.

Based on this logic, it can be imagined that the suspect was the engineering director of the South City Administrative Hall at the time, and his private lounge and restaurant would never be allowed to be entered by his subordinates without permission. "

Zou Ting showed some physical evidence and continued, "Now let me reconstruct the suspect's murder process. He first pretended to take in a wanted victim, had a meal with the victim that night, and then brutally buried him in the ground, leaving the victim buried alive to death.

The suspect then dug out the victim's body from the ground, put it into a large suitcase, and stored it in the freezer in his lounge. After the project is completed, his lounge will be converted into a duty booth.

He suggested that some unused debris could be placed underground as filler, and the suitcase containing the victim's body could be thrown underground for burial.

Police investigators found hair in the suitcase containing the body, and accurate DNA identification showed that the hair belonged to the suspect.

To sum up, the prosecution believes that the evidence in this case is conclusive, the suspect Lian Juntai's criminal facts are clear, and he killed his own brother, and his methods were cruel.

A series of behaviors after committing the crime are enough to prove that the suspect has no remorse. After being arrested, he still refused to cooperate with the police investigation and did not take the initiative to confess his guilt. Therefore, I request the presiding judge to sentence Lian Juntai to death for intentional homicide in accordance with the law. Thank you."

After Zou Ting finished speaking, the presiding judge said, "The defense attorney will present his defense opinion."

When Zou Ting was speaking just now, Lawyer Zhou was taking notes seriously. When it was his turn to speak, he was particularly calm.

"Hello, respected presiding judge and judges. First of all, I feel very sorry for the death of Lian Juncheng. Although he was guilty, he did not deserve the death penalty. This is a fact.

My client, Mr. Lian Juntai, is the deceased's younger brother, so one can imagine how sad he must be. I really want to appeal for the injustice for my client. It is extremely cruel that you still identify him as the murderer when he is so sad.

Okay, now I will officially start to talk about my defense point of view. I believe that the charges brought by the public prosecution agency are completely based on unclear facts and insufficient evidence, and therefore the charges cannot be established.

The three elements of a murder case are, first of all, the motive for murder. Generally speaking, there are five categories of motives for murder: emotional motive, profit motive, revenge motive, self-defense motive and madness motive.

Before this, I also did a lot of interviews, and my client had a very good relationship with the two brothers of the victim, which ruled out emotional motives and revenge motives.

The deceased was already a wanted criminal when he was murdered, so my client was the natural heir, and the profit motive was ruled out;

My client is a well-known entrepreneur with a high social status and a good living standard. He has full capacity for conduct and is in very good health. Under such circumstances, there is no possibility of revenge against society or murder in passion.

Then the only motive left is self-defense. I just said that the prosecution's evidence is unclear, so I will reserve this point for now.

Secondly, the method of murder. The prosecutor just explained the process of my client’s crime. After listening to it, my feeling can only be described in two words: ridiculous!

From the perspective of a perpetrator, successfully burying the body in the basement of the South City Administrative Hall was already a good thing. Under this premise, the body had to be dug out again, and a suitcase had to be prepared for refrigeration before being buried a second time.

This kind of behavior is completely superfluous and greatly exposes the possibility of committing a crime. I don't understand why the prosecutor has such reasoning. I would like the prosecutor to answer this question later.

Finally, the scene of the murder. In case of premeditated murders, the murderer will subconsciously avoid important places related to himself when choosing the scene of the murder, because once the crime scene is discovered, he will naturally become a suspect.

The South City Administrative Hall is a government project. My client, as the main person in charge of the project, stays on the construction site all day and must be very familiar with his subordinates. Moreover, as we all know, construction sites are crowded with people and eyes. It is unreasonable to choose such a place to kill someone.

Finally, let me talk about the consequences of murder. Even the most ignorant person knows that killing someone means paying with one's life. My client is a well-read intellectual, so he understands this principle better than anyone else.

Even if you don't pay much attention to the business world, you should have heard of Chengtai Construction in our local area, and you should know that one of the cross-river bridges in the Liming Project here was built by Chengtai Construction.

As the chairman of Chengtai Construction, there is no need for me to say much about the net worth of my client. We, the ordinary people, don't need to listen to the opinions of those highly educated people. We all know that my client's net worth and living environment are very impressive.

Why did he, who was in charge of such a promising enterprise and at the peak of his career, deliberately kill his brother, who was a wanted criminal and with whom he had a deep relationship and no conflicts? Does it make sense?

Therefore, the above-mentioned motive for murder, means of murder, place of murder and consequences of murder do not match my client. In addition, hair belonging to my client was found on my client’s private dining table and in the suitcase where the body was hidden provided by the prosecution.

I believe that these are far from sufficient to serve as direct evidence to prove that my client committed the crime. In addition, the testimonies of many witnesses presented by the prosecutor were also empty words.

Rather than saying that this case was committed by my client, I think it is more like someone framed my client. Everyone is equal before the law, so the law is serious and fair. The law should not let a bad guy go, let alone a good guy, especially the family of the victim.

So I beg the presiding judge to investigate and catch the real murderer, clear my client's name, and let my client, who is also the victim, be acquitted as soon as possible. My defense is over. Thank you."
