426. Chapter 426 Unexpected disaster

The person who made the sound was a middle-aged man about fifty years old, with a slightly bald forehead, a combed hair backwards, a suit and lace like Anderson, and his eyes were bright. He and the group entered through the door, with Frederick following him, and there was no need to say who he was.

"Adam Kassel?" the prosecutor raised his eyebrows and said in an arrogant tone.

"Yes, Thomas Anderson, you still like to play such dirty tricks." The other party said in a mocking tone. "Now, if you don't want to go to the police committee, either show your arrest warrant or open my client's handcuffs."

The prosecutor exchanged glances with the head of the drug control department. Although a trace of dissatisfaction flashed across the latter's face, the agents around him still opened Sean's handcuffs.

"Now, sirs, please wait a while. I need to talk to my client alone." Kassel said immediately.

"Can you tell me what's going on, Mr. Kassel?" Sean, who was moving his wrists, asked calmly after coming to the study.

"Mr. Thomas Anderson wants to tell the media this way, you, Hollywood star Sean Don, have been arrested by them, you are a criminal," Kassel explained, "He is a very difficult guy, and he likes to use all kinds of tricks."

"He's such a good person." Sean said self-deprecatingly, his face a little gloomy.

"You shouldn't speak before we come, Mr. Tang, and you shouldn't meet the police alone or leave here." The lawyer continued to tidy up his collar.

"They said there will be more and more media outside," Sean explained.

"Where you are, the media will be growing, Mr. Don," Kassel sat down, "the police and prosecutors will try their best to equate you with criminals, believe me, they have a hundred ways."

"You mean, in our country, the police will use any means to prove the suspect is guilty." Sean raised his eyebrows, "even if I am innocent."

"For the most part... it's like this. As long as you have the potential to commit a crime, they will try their best to prove it, even if you are innocent." Kassel spread his hands. "If you meet them alone, they will keep asking you to question you in turn, first let you consolidate your testimony, then look for flaws, and then accuse you of it. To make you look like you are lying, they will confront you with important evidence, anything that may confuse your memory, and if they can't get anything from you, they will make a deal with you and force you to confess."

Sean raised his hands but said nothing, and Kassel shrugged: "This is normal, Mr. Tang, even the FBI has a target for solving cases. Of course, they are relatively simple. Just check if someone evades taxes. Thomas Anderson is a cunning guy. His conviction rate has always been hovering between 8.9 and 9. He wants to consolidate his position. And he hates rich people and celebrities. If he takes advantage of loopholes, you will be very passive."

Sean took a deep breath and calmed himself down: "Thank you, Mr. Kassel, come here in time."

"I'm honored to serve you, Mr. Tang, please don't worry. Since you choose us, we won't let your interests lose any loss." Kassel said with a smile, "Just as I often say, as long as you find the right lawyer, we have the best judicial system in the world."

"So what are we going to do next?" Sean asked after nodding.

"I need to know what you did last night, and be detailed enough. My people outside will ask your friends some important questions and then confirm each other, but the most important thing is not to lie." Kassel said seriously.

"Okay," Sean thought for a few minutes, "I was alone last night..."

He still said that he had given Frederick the previous remarks. Although through the previous conversations, he believed that the lawyer was on his side, there were certain things that he could never reveal, which was his bottom line.

"That's it?" Kassel asked quietly after listening to it. His expression was very calm, neither expressing his belief nor disbelief.

"Yes," Sean didn't care. "I don't take drugs, I rarely smoke marijuana. I haven't touched it in the past few months. I can do urine tests, right away. In addition, I don't drive fast. That Ford is my first car. I drove this car to Hollywood, so I haven't lost it. I just occasionally drive it out when I want to go out alone and think about some questions."

"I can know, what makes you want to go out for a walk alone?" Cassel asked after thinking for a few minutes.

"This is important?" Sean asked back.

"It's very important," the other party nodded, "the prosecutor will try every means to dig out your information. Once there is something they know but we don't know, the form will be powerful for them."

Sean hesitated and said, "Because... I'm married."

"Married?" Kassel finally showed a look of surprise.

"Yes, but this is a misunderstanding. We went to Las Vegas for vacation, got drunk, and went to the marriage registration office with a friend, girlfriend. After that, the judge refused to judge the marriage invalid. I had a conflict with her again, and I didn't want to make a fuss, so I had to put this issue on hold for the time being. This was more than a month ago, and some other troubles happened in the middle, so this action took place." Sean told the story of Las Vegas.

Of course, he still reserved it, not mentioning Zoe's name, nor did he mention the names of Jordanna and Emily. These things should have nothing to do with the current case.

"You didn't go to find her last night?" Kassel asked immediately.

"No." Sean shook his head.

"So, no one saw you in the park last night, was that right?" Cassel asked again.

"…It should be like that." Sean nodded.

"Well, it's a bit tricky, but it's not completely unsuccessful," Kassel knocked on the table. "If you're not lying, at least the urine test is good for us. In addition, you call the police in the morning and report the case to the branch in person, which will also become the key point - I have to say, you have a good agent, Mr. Tang."

"Thank you." Sean answered calmly.

"So, let's go to the police station together now, and the next test moment will be," Kassel stood up, "I hope you can be mentally prepared."

———

"At around 9 o'clock this morning, the police took Sean? Don here, on the grounds that they were suspected of drug driving and hitting people to escape. Sean, 24, is a well-known Hollywood actor, has works such as "Cold Mountain" and "Flyer", and has been nominated for Oscars twice..."

...

"CNN reported to you that it has been three hours since Sean was taken to the Los Angeles Police Department, and there is no specific news so far. It is rumored that he drove to the Huntington Parker District and ran away early this morning. The drunkard was sent to the hospital and died after he died after he failed to rescue..."

...

"According to reliable sources, police collected at least one ounce of cocaine in Sean's back seat, and the car was full of Sean's fingerprints. After paying bail, Sean stayed in his mansion and stayed home without leaving the house. Prosecutor Thomas Anderson said that the charges will be filed soon..."

...

"Let's look back at Sean's experience. He came to Los Angeles in 1998 without any acting experience. However, he was the first hit in the lead role of "The Genius Ripley" and was nominated for the Oscar in the second year. He has participated in many movies and has often had scandals. There is no doubt that he is an arrogant young man, and his youthful ambition made him lose his mind. It's not surprising that he did such a thing..."

...

"The police said there is evidence that the person who drove to death in the early morning of the day was Sean Don. I really couldn't believe that he did such a thing. Warner actually chose him as the starring actor of Batman prequel..."

...

"There is no doubt that the case of Shawn Tang's death and escape will become the most concerned case in the new century. Let's guess whether he will escape the legal sanctions or be thrown into prison until the end of the day?"

...

"Gary is a good husband and a good father. He is usually kind and kind to others, but he just likes to drink some wine. What's wrong with this? What's wrong with this! God, he should have walked home slowly after drinking some wine. He always did this, but why didn't he come back that night? How do I tell my children that their father wouldn't come back?"

...

After the news of Sean's suspected drug driving and hitting someone to death and escape spread, Hollywood, no, the whole of the United States was sensational. Because... after the Simpson case, this was another celebrity involved in criminal cases of a very bad nature, which was like a rainstorm for the media.

That's right, it's literally. For the media, this kind of eye-catching news is simply given by God. If you don't seize the opportunity to play well and attract more eyeballs, it will definitely be a failure. Especially when you also connect well-known actors, drugs, hitting people to death, driving and escaping, how can you not be as excited as if you were injected with chicken blood? As for the feelings of the person involved? Who cares, how can we report it if you don't do these things?

So, from that day on, the case has been continuously on the front pages or home pages of various media, and Sean's name has been repeatedly mentioned. Most of the reports are exaggerated, and many people even hurriedly convicted him in the newspaper when the prosecutor just filed a possible accusation, just like Michael Jackson's child case ten years ago - it was the same two years ago.

This overwhelming publicity immediately made many people who didn't know or were not interested in Sean start to engrave his name in their minds. It can be said that in just half a month, he was the most famous figure in the United States, surpassing countless celebrities. However, not many people want such a fame. Not to mention anything else, "Batman Prequel: War Moment" was about to be released, but it was postponed by Warner.

Although Warner said that this was because there was a problem with post-production, anyone with discerning eyes knew why.
