Six years later, she amazed the world with her three children

Chapter 2406 Who else could be the murderer besides her?

At this moment, the only sound in the extremely quiet courtroom was Pu Xue's crying. The judge was also humane and let her cry for about a minute before saying, "Family members of the victim, please control your emotions a little."

"I'm sorry, Your Honor."

Pu Xue stood up, covered her face and bowed apologetically.

"The trial will now continue."

With the fall of the gavel, the trial continued.

"I want to refute the plaintiff's point of view again." At this time, Zhao Chengsu stood up and refuted what Lawyer Li said just now. "Just now, the plaintiff said that my client asked his colleagues to go together as a cover-up, and rushed into the private room to commit a crime, but all this is your subjective speculation. Do you have any evidence?"

"We found Xiao Tianruo's fingerprints on the murder weapon, but this is not evidence. Then I would like to ask, what else can be considered evidence if there is no surveillance?"

Hearing this, Zhao Chengsu displayed another picture on the screen and explained: "This is a 3D technology restoration of the placement of the wine bottles in the private room at that time based on the testimonies of many parties.

There were a total of eight bottles of wine on the coffee table. After my client rushed into the private room, he saw that the fight between the deceased, Chen Mo, and Butler Xu was right next to the coffee table.

In desperation, Chen Mo picked up a wine bottle to fight back. There were still seven bottles of wine left. In the chaotic fight, it was impossible for the seven bottles of wine on the coffee table to remain in their original places.

Some of them must have fallen on the coffee table, and some rolled on the ground. At this time, my client tried to stop the fight and was thrown out. In this case, his hand happened to touch the wine bottle. I would like to ask the plaintiff, is this possible?"

"It is possible," Lawyer Li replied, "but the location of Xiao Tianruo's fingerprints is basically consistent with holding the bottle upside down and using it as a weapon to strike."

"If it was a solid reverse grip, it would be impossible to extract only one fingerprint of my client. This can be known by comparing the fingerprint extracted from Chen Mo.

Moreover, in criminal cases, conviction requires the formation of a complete chain of evidence to ensure that the facts are established to the extent of excluding reasonable doubt.

Although fingerprints are one of the statutory types of evidence, a conviction cannot be made based solely on fingerprints without other evidence to corroborate it.

In the dark and chaotic situation, there was a high probability that my client's hand touched the wine bottle and left fingerprints. Based on what I said before, my client was a pregnant woman and her discomfort at the time prevented her from completing the attack on the victim.

There are also testimonies from other people, including Chen Mo. Apart from the fingerprints on the murder weapon, there are no other witnesses or physical evidence to prove that my client participated in the beating.

To sum up, my client did not commit any illegal or criminal acts in this case. I have finished my narration. Thank you. "

After Zhao Chengsu finished speaking, Lawyer Li continued, "Whether the fingerprints on the murder weapon were left accidentally or during the crime is indeed debatable, but the defendant's lawyer just mentioned a detail.

There were eight bottles of wine in the room at the time. I would like to ask the other defendant, Chen Mo, are all these bottles the ones you wanted?"

"Yes." Chen Mo answered truthfully.

"Why did you need so much alcohol? Your meeting with the deceased was not a business conversation, and it shouldn't take too long. Why did you buy so much alcohol?"

"I didn't deliberately buy wine, I just ordered the most expensive set meal. I was already in the private room, and as soon as I entered, the waiter came in and asked me what I wanted to order?

I have plenty of money and I can't spend it all. When the waiter asked me this, I directly replied, "Give me the most expensive set meal." You can investigate this.

I didn’t even know what was included in the meal. It was only after I got in that I realized it included eight bottles of wine and some fruit snacks, that’s it.”

"My client's statement has already been confirmed by the police. It is indeed true. Does the plaintiff still have any doubts about this?"

“No,” Lawyer Li replied.

"As the defendant's attorney, I understand the feelings of the victim's family. No one can accept that a life was lost.

But when expressing personal emotions, it must also be based on legal grounds. I believe that my client was passively counterattacking in self-defense, and this behavior is by no means consistent with intentional homicide or manslaughter.

It is an instinctive reaction of self-protection in a critical moment. According to Article 20 of the Criminal Law, my client's behavior is in line with legitimate defense. Please presiding judge and all judges understand this clearly. "

"Excuse me, I still have some questions for the defendant." Lawyer Li quickly asked the presiding judge.

"permit."

"I want to ask Chen Mo, how many times did you hit the deceased?"

"I really can't remember clearly. In that situation, I was afraid that he would beat me to death, so I had to fight back. I don't know how many times I hit him."

"Where exactly did the victim get hit?"

"I don't know, I really don't know. I just hit him randomly in a hurry. I don't know where I hit him."

"Did you notice that the deceased was unresponsive for a moment after your continuous beatings?"

"I do not……"

"Don't mention this question, you don't know the answer!" Lawyer Li approached Chen Mo and asked in a strong tone, "When a person's desire to survive explodes, their stress and physiological reactions will be strong.

Because you feel that your life is threatened, your strength, including your brain, will be greater than usual under stress response.

At the time, both of you were under such stress. If one of you stopped in the process of hurting each other, the other would definitely feel it. I am asking you now, did the deceased beat you continuously? Did he not stop at all? "

"I……"

"Don't say you don't know. Answer my question clearly."

"Your Honor, the plaintiff's lawyer is now threatening my client. Please dismiss his question."

"The defendant's lawyer's opinion is rejected. The plaintiff may continue to ask questions, but be careful about your attitude." The presiding judge said after the jury discussed.

"Thank you, Mr. Judge." Lawyer Li looked at Chen Mo and asked, "Answer my question."

Chen Mo replied: "No."

"The victim never paused? He was beating you all the time, right?"

"Yes."

"Okay, then here comes the problem. Two wine bottles that had hit the victim's head were found at the scene. Chen Mo has already identified one of them as the one who hit the victim, but she doesn't identify the other wine bottle that had Xiao Tianruo's fingerprints on it.

In the existing confession, if Chen Mo did not lie, she said that she did not change the wine bottle and always held one, then who was the other person who hit the victim?

Meng Chang's main targets of beating were Butler Xu and Chen Mo. Chen Mo kept fighting back. Butler Xu fell to the ground and tried to escape, but was held back by Meng Chang and couldn't get away.

When Meng Chang was not paying attention to other people, he was beaten to death by others. The person who beat him must have committed murder intentionally. However, based on the existing evidence and the motive for murder, who else could the suspect be other than Xiao Tianruo? "
