Chapter 560 Truth Reveals!
Josh took out a USB flash disk after he finished speaking.
None of the judicial officials dared take it.
Nobody was allowed to act rashly without permission. The judge was waiting for Charles's hint to proceed.
Melvin pretended not to notice it and said to the court, "Officer, please accept the evidence."
Not until then did the judge come back to earth.
It didn't make sense if he rejected the evidence when it was provided in court. And Charles couldn't tell him to do that as well. So, the judge bit the bullet and said, "Please play the video."
A judicial officer stepped forward to take over the USB, connected it to the computer and projected it in the court.
Suddenly, two men in black came into sight with several big cases. They unlocked Oscar's door and went into the apartment. When they came out again, people could notice the cases had been emptied based on their movements. The video had caused a disorder on the spot.
Freaking out, Charles looked so bad.
It was impossible! He'd sent people to check around and there couldn't be any surveillance camera. But telling from the position of the camera, he finally realized something-the camera was on the opposite door, which meant it was installed in the apartment of Oscar's neighbour.
They'd only turned over Oscar's apartment and checked around the community casually. Never had he expected that they ended up being caught by the camera on the opposite door.
"Your Honor, may I summon my witness now?" Josh asked.
The judge was in a panic. Then he paid a glance at the audience again.
Decidedly, it was a breakthrough in the case.
"Your Honor, you're the highest authority in the court! With due respect, you kept looking at the audience today. Were you attracted by something? Or do you have to listen to someone up there to do your job?" "Nonsense!" the judge got ashamed and annoyed. He was still majestic after years of experience in the position.
"Counsel for the defence, watch your language! Do that again, and I'll disqualify you from the defence."
"Yes, Your Honor." Josh looked respectful and asked again, "May I summon my witness now?"
The judge had been exposed in public and of course, he dared not look around again. "Agree."
"Thank you, Your Honor." Josh bowed and said.
A moment later, two men in black in the video appeared in the court.
"Please introduce yourselves," Josh asked.
"My name is Nick. I'm 31 years old. And I'm from River Town."
"My name is Tong. I'm 28 years old, from River Town."
"Are you the two people in the video?" Josh asked. "Yes."
"What's in the cases?"
"Cash."
"How much?"
"Don't know." said Nick, "A lot. We couldn't count it."
"Why did you put the cash into my client's apartment?"
"Someone paid us 200 thousand to do that." Nick said, "And we said yes."
"Who paid you to do that?"
They looked at each other, and said simultaneously, "We don't know. We just received a call and someone told us to send the stuff to the place. He paid us 100 thousand as a deposit, and paid us the rest after we got the job done."
"How did you contact him?"
"He called me with a disposal phone and put the stuff beside a trash dump in the west street of River Town. Tong and I picked up the stuff together. The money was wrapped in paper and left there, too." "So, you have never met this man."
"Nah."
"OK." Josh finished inquiring and turned to the judge, "We all heard the testimony of the two witnesses. It was obvious that someone put the cash into my client's apartment to frame him up."
"Objection!" the prosecutor stood out, "It was only a statement of the defendant. I highly doubt that the defendant has colluded with someone to make it up."
"Objection sustained!" the judge supported the prosecution party unconditionally.
"I can prove the video is authentic." Josh said eagerly, "Please allow me to summon another witness."
"Agree." The judge paused and said.
The old gentleman who lived on the opposite door appeared in the court.
Really, Hannah didn't want to get him involved. But she had predicted the case and struggled to bring him over. To her surprise, the old gentleman gave her a yes without hesitation. He was very willing to cooperate when he was told to testify for Oscar. He had talked a lot and asserted that Oscar wouldn't have taken the money.
At last, he offered all the videos recorded and fasted forward to the videos of the past month, which proved that the video provided by Josh wasn't fake.
"Even so, what about the financial statement? The defendant has taken the bribe of 50 million, which completely matched the financial statement. He knew he might be caught one day. So, he acted the play." The prosecution counsel refuted this.
"Why don't you just say the financial statement is fake?" Josh asked him back.
The other side was at a loss for words.
"They could have framed him up with the cash. Don't you think it's a piece of cake to fake the financial statement?" Josh stated.
"The financial statement was from the City Hall, and all the officials have confirmed it. Or, do you think Rive Town City Hall is part of it?"
"My point." Josh agreed with him.
The counsel was blue in the face and realized he'd said something wrong.
"Everyone has been part of it. But why..." Josh played a cat-and-mouse game with them, "We'll talk about it later. Now let's focus on the financial statement."
The prosecutor gritted his teeth and said nothing else.
Josh raised his voice, "My client has saved a financial statement on his phone. It was the only authentic one which hasn't been cleaned up by the City Hall. But my client was arrested and his phone was detained. Hereby I'm applying to take back my client's phone as the verdict."
Before the judge could speak a word, Melvin took it out from the detained belongings, "Is this the phone?"
"Yes," Josh answered immediately.
Melvin gave him a sign and Josh came over to take the phone.
Josh thanked him and took the phone back. He connected the phone to the computer, made a copy of the authentic financial statement and projected it on the large screen.
On the screen, Oscar's account was extremely clear. There was no extra 50 million. And each income and expense were with details.
Josh had also summoned lots of witnesses to prove each of the items of the account was authentic.
Finally, the case was closed.
