"When can my lawyer come?" Dulin asked on the way back.
During the interrogation, he calmly avoided all the questions he should not answer and the words he should not say, but this does not mean that he can complete the trial and defense work on his own. Professional things should be done by professional people. This is what Dulin learned in his dream. Lawyers know the value and loopholes of every legal clause better than he does, and they also know better how to persuade uneducated juries with words. member.
He had already contacted Kevin, who introduced him to a lawyer who worked in Aldo, a very powerful one. Of course, Kevin said that he is a little worse than himself, but in some places he is a little higher than himself. The difference lies in ability, but the expense is higher. The fee of one hundred yuan per hour and the agency fee of three thousand yuan are indeed a little higher than Kevin's, and Dulin also hopes that he can be worthy of his price.
If he fails, he will return to Hell to meet Hades.
After calculating the time, this guy should be here too.
Mason held his handcuffs and led him forward. Originally, according to the evidence collected in the police station and the charges against Dulin, he still needed to wear shackles. Fortunately, the management method of the police station was flexible and "humane enough." ", so he didn't have those things on his feet.
"The application has been sent. You can see your lawyer around nine o'clock tomorrow morning. You have thirty minutes." After saying this, Mason endured it, but in the end he couldn't hold it back and continued. : "I don't know if I'm crazy. My dad has never had more than one hundred yuan in cash in his treasure chest. But now you hire a lawyer for one hundred yuan an hour, and you need to pay another three thousand yuan." The agency fees are really crazy!”
During this period, Mason's outlook on life was also severely impacted. In the past, when he could get ten or twenty points in the country, he would be as happy as if he were celebrating the New Year. It is said that the women in the town only got fifty points a night. The older ones Thirty-five points. Mr. Kesma's "treasure" - a small iron box contains some money, not much money, never more than one hundred yuan. The whole family knows this, but Mr. Kesma thinks that everyone does not know.
But look at it now, here, you start spending money every morning as soon as you open your eyes until you go to sleep. Sometimes Mason wonders, if he goes to a more prosperous place like the capital, will he have to pay to even breathe
It is possible that each person is only allowed to breathe a certain number of breaths of fresh air freely every day, and every breath above this amount costs one penny...
Well, this is just an old hat’s illusion and fear of the metropolis, and it doesn’t explain anything.
He now has a contradictory and conflicting understanding of the concept of money. Money should be very precious. Many people only earn ten yuan a month, and those who have thirty or fifty are middle- and high-income people. But on the first day he came, Du Lin gave him a wad of money and asked him to decide what he should do, but he must spend it all within a month. So he spent a long time in corruption with the police officers in the precinct who were willing to stand on his side.
They tried alcohol, cigarettes, women and even the promised land. He already feels that he is extravagant and wasteful, but compared to hiring a lawyer... please forgive his ignorance.
Hiring a lawyer is indeed a very expensive move, but you can get different explanations from different angles. In Dulin's opinion, hiring a lawyer is not a waste of money, but money buying time. No matter how confident he is before the trial, in the end it is up to the jury and the district judge to decide whether he is guilty and how many years he should spend in prison. It is indeed very economical not to hire a good lawyer. In the city of Turner, it costs ten dollars and twenty dollars an hour, and there are lawyers everywhere whose attorney fee is only one hundred dollars.
But they can't help Dulin minimize his "prison" trip to x days. Only lawyers who need to spend a lot of money can do this.
In this way, hiring a lawyer is actually equivalent to using money to buy a shortened sentence, so it is worth it. This is why Kevin is so popular. This damn "Devil's Advocate" is always able to accomplish what he is supposed to accomplish unexpectedly, and sometimes even exceeds his expectations, provided that you keep him "full."
When I returned to the cage, the sound of friction on the iron door sounded. The originally noisy cage suddenly became quiet, as if the subjects were waiting for their king to arrive.
"I will have someone bring the stove in tomorrow. Besides, I think if it's not necessary, you'd better ask your men to exercise restraint." Mason untied the handcuffs on Dulin's hands and couldn't help but tell him, "Four of you died on the first day you came in. Even though I'm not in charge here, it's still ugly."
Du Lin rubbed his wrist, turned around and said with a smile: "They can't!"
Yes, no more.
Four people have died and they still don’t understand the current situation, and they still come here to die. That means that person deserves to die and no one can stop him. Du Lin believes that the people who are still alive today are not too stupid. They are all "social elites"!
When he turned around again, Dufo had already led people to greet him. After the group of people escorted Du Lin back to the room, Dufo asked, "Is everything going well?"
Du Lin took off his coat, wrapped himself in the new quilt, wrapped it tightly, and hummed twice with satisfaction, "According to our previous plan, there will be no problems." He turned over, He completely pressed the last bit of quilt under him, "Be careful of that interrogator, don't say things you shouldn't say, don't be nervous, this is all just a game."
"This damn weather makes the quilt feel wet!"
Amidst the complaints, Du Lin fell into a deep sleep. When he woke up, it was already the next day.
The lawyer introduced by Kevin came as scheduled. He was a very energetic "young man", probably in his thirties, wearing a decent suit, very neat and capable, and the lawyer's badge on his chest was shining. You can feel his strength when you shake Dulin's hand, and he looks like a guy worthy of his high salary.
"Mr. Dulin, before we talk, I want to ask you something." He opened his notebook with a smile and took out his pen, "Do you think you are guilty of all the charges the police have brought against you? ", he laughed twice, "I am an ethical lawyer and will never disclose any employer's information or conversation. This is the right given to me by the law."
Du Lin shook his head, "I am not guilty!"
The lawyer slapped the table, and his sudden movement startled Du Lin. His brows trembled, and the guy said: "Very good, that's the attitude you need. I believe any of my employers are innocent." , are all innocent, and all the accusations are shameless and despicable frame-ups. Next, we have several issues that need to be resolved. "
Looking at the lawyer and communicating with him, Dulin gradually understood why Kevin would let him spend such money to hire him because of his connections. In addition to having very high professional qualities, the lawyer profession also requires excellent persuasive and public relations abilities.
A lawyer who pays ten yuan an hour may know one or two court staff who are not very prominent. A lawyer who pays fifty yuan an hour may have some contact with the police chief or a court judge. Then a lawyer who pays one hundred yuan an hour, say Maybe the judge is his father!
This money is well spent!
Because the three-thousand-dollar gentleman told Dulin that as long as he appealed after the outcome of the trial in the Turnell District Court, he had a way to completely clear himself of these charges and crimes in the state court.
For this, more money needs to be spent.
This is a very reliable lawyer, isn't he
With the mayor's attention and a well-written script, this drama unfolded much faster than expected. It took less than five days for the first court hearing to begin.
This was the first time in his life that Du Lin participated in a trial. Before the trial, Du Lin repeatedly made a final request to Mr. Three Thousand Dollars - what kind of bullshit charge did he need to put him and his people in jail? Hide for a while.
After the trial, everything went as planned in the script. Du Lin calmly watched the accusations being denied one after another. The ignorant citizens hearing the trial also kept screaming. Just when Du Lin thought everything was over, Suddenly the prosecutor asked to call a witness who was not part of the plan and presented a deposition that was not part of the plan.
Du Lin frowned, and Mr. Three Thousand Dollars also looked puzzled, because this witness and testimony were not on the agenda of the trial.
"The reason for making this decision is to prevent the defendant from using some means to influence the witness and testimony to the greatest extent, so we deliberately concealed this witness and his testimony in the preliminary work.", as the prosecutor said. After speaking, a homeless man walked to the witness stand under the protection of two bailiffs.
Du Fu, who was sitting next to Du Lin, twitched his eyes. He clenched his fists tightly and gritted his teeth. How could he not know this homeless man? On the night when Graf was delivering wine, he met this homeless man in a hurry on the road, and he gave the homeless man some money. He didn't know what the homeless man knew. In fact, it was not his fault, but he felt that he should bear some responsibility.
Du Lin tilted his head and looked at Dufo, "Do you know him? What does he know?"
Dover did not speak, but the prosecutor spoke first, "Your honor, jury, I am now filing new charges against the criminal group headed by Dulin, accusing them of murdering two nighttime residents one night three months ago. Patrolman!"
With a bang, the whole court was boiling!
