Lawyer: Send the Judge to Prison-Chapter 446 - 403: The Verdict Is Imminent! Li Long Is Innocent!

Chapter 446: Chapter 403: The Verdict Is Imminent! Li Long Is Innocent!

Gu Chen began to speak: "Your Honor, my client’s actions just now have already sufficiently proven that he is mentally ill."

"I now request for my client to leave the courtroom."

"I have enough evidence to prove my client is a mentally ill patient, and any statements he makes in court are invalid; he doesn’t even know what he is saying."

"Allowing Li Long to continue speaking in court is a disruption to the court’s order," Gu Chen said.

With this, he directly had his client Li Long removed from the court.

And no one could find fault with Gu Chen’s argument.

Because what Gu Chen said was indeed correct.

Li Long himself has serious mental illness; can the words he says in court be counted?

Gu Chen continued: "I would now like to reconfirm with the prosecutor that my client is a mentally ill patient, and any words spoken by him are those of a mentally ill person. Do you believe the judiciary should place faith in the words of a mentally ill person in handling cases?"

Prosecutor Wang Qing: "....."

Wang Qing remained silent.

Gu Chen’s statement was a direct knockout blow.

No matter what Li Long said thereafter, it was rendered invalid.

Simply because Li Long is a mentally ill patient.

Gu Chen said: "If Li Long were a normal person, he should know what I’m doing."

"I believe any normal person would not engage in such suicidal behavior."

"Obviously, Li Long’s actions in court just now indicated he seeks a death sentence, seeks suicide. If he truly wanted to commit suicide, he wouldn’t need to surrender himself."

"This shows that Li Long really has no awareness in court of what he’s doing nor the severe consequences of his actions."

"A normal person should know that I’m defending him and not speak erratically in court."

"These pieces of evidence already sufficiently demonstrate that Li Long’s mental illness is very severe."

"Therefore, every single word Li Long said just now cannot be used as a reference."

"My legal plea remains unchanged; Li Long experienced his mother’s murder as a child, and this shadow has lingered in his heart forever, becoming a perpetual nightmare that gradually affected his mental state."

"Li Long became a mentally ill patient, and his actions are also not guilty."

"I recommend finding a reputable hospital to treat Li Long, and after treatment, allow him to be discharged, so he will not pose a threat to society."

"My client Li Long should be acquitted."

"Your Honor, my statement is complete."

Gu Chen finished speaking.

Prosecutor Wang Qing also had nothing more to say.

This case had reached the point where everything that could be said had been said.

The rest will depend on how the court decides.

The presiding judge Xu Yang struck the gavel and announced: "The court is adjourned for three hours. The session will resume after three hours."

This case had reached the point of needing a verdict.

The presiding judge and the judges all left the court to deliberate on how to judge this case.

As for Li Long, he had been sent back to the detention center.

A mentally ill patient indeed does not belong in a courtroom.

In the audience, everyone felt that Gu Chen’s handling of the case was brilliant.

Gao Yong remarked: "Incredible... Gu Chen’s performance in this case really opened my eyes; using his own abilities entirely, this case seems poised to win."

Xia Ranran also felt some admiration; despite her many years of experience in handling cases, she had lost when faced with this one.

Gu Chen, approaching this case, appeared relaxed, with no pressure at all...

Now it seems this case is really heading for a win.

Initially, it was thought impossible to win, and attorneys wouldn’t take on such a case.

Handling such a case would require substantial legal fees...otherwise, it would be very difficult to win.

Wanting to win seemed completely unrealistic.

Yet, after Gu Chen took over this case, the tide had turned entirely in his favor.

Perhaps... Li Long really could be acquitted!

Li Long’s case was exceptionally egregious; at first, everyone thought merely receiving a suspended death sentence and not dying meant the case was a victory.

But Gu Chen aimed higher... he wanted Li Long acquitted.

What attorney could handle a case as beautifully as Gu Chen?

Xue Qingqing said: "Hee hee, the boss is amazing, isn’t he? I’ve always thought the boss could win any case; this particular case was really tough, I’ve never seen one this difficult... The client killed three people, yet the boss went on to defend him, and there truly seems to be a chance to win at the end."

Everyone understood that even if Li Long wasn’t directly acquitted, the case was already won.

As long as Li Long wasn’t sentenced to death, the case was victorious.

As for acquittal... nobody dared to guarantee. 𝓯𝙧𝓮𝓮𝒘𝓮𝙗𝙣𝒐𝒗𝒆𝓵.𝓬𝓸𝒎

The key was still how the court would decide.

Netizens in the live chat were all sending bullet comments.

[Lawyer Gu is incredible!]

[This case will win again, barring any accidents! Hahaha, I said Li Long shouldn’t be sentenced to death.]

[I never thought Lawyer Gu could really achieve this; I assume if any other lawyer took this on, Li Long would likely end up with a death sentence.]

[I wonder how the court will decide; please don’t sentence Li Long to death.]

[I also think Li Long shouldn’t be sentenced to death.... a reduced sentence would be good.]

Netizens were all slightly worried...
