433. Chapter 433 Dust Settled II

"How is it?" Walker walked up to ask as soon as Kassel entered the lounge.

"Anderson cites the Fifth Amendment and requires Sean to testify in court," Kassel frowned, but was not very nervous. "The judge supported his opinion, but did not mandate it."

"Support but not mandatory?" Walker was stunned, "What does this mean?"

"It means," Case looked at Sean, who had not moved on the sofa, "Whether to testify is determined by Sean himself."

"No, Sean can't come out to testify. Although he participated in a few mock jury and cooperated with us quite well, this was not enough. Anderson could defeat him in just a few minutes." Walker immediately shook his head and denied the suggestion, "Open the court."

The time is only 30 minutes, and we have no time to formulate the plan. "

"But in this case, the jury's impression of us will be greatly reduced. This is their trick. I suggest that I will not force you, and you will still refuse, so you must be guilty," Kassel said immediately, "

And the testimony of Ms. Cate Brancheter before is not perfect. If you leave such an impression on the jury, we will lose points at the last moment. "

Then, neither of them spoke anymore, but turned their heads to look at Sean, wanting to hear his opinion.

"Then..." After a long silence, Sean finally spoke, "I am willing to testify."

"Shawn, you have to think clearly, this may ruin your previous efforts." Walker hurriedly said.

"I didn't say those words to force you, Sean, I just hope you can think and analyze carefully and then respond correctly," Kassel said.

"I have thought it through and I can testify for myself," said Sean seriously. "I have been observing this time and have accumulated experience in the two trials. I can do it well, as long as you give useful advice.

Don't forget, I'm an actor, and I know better than you guys how to perform in people to touch their hearts."

He couldn't wait like this. From the moment Kate appeared, he knew that he had to do something. Frederick might not have fully disclosed the situation to the law firm, but Cassel must have seen it.

What he had to pull everyone's eyes back to himself, and the prosecutor now gave him a chance.

"Have you thought of the testimony?" Kassel asked.

"Yes." Sean nodded.

"Call the jury consultant here," the old lawyer greeted immediately, "We still have time."

Time always passes quickly, and the audience, jury, judge and the prosecutor appeared again in court after a brief break, and Sean also sat on the witness stand.

"You are a liar, Mr. Tang." The prosecutor said the first sentence, which made Kassel and the others frown slightly. This question is not within their predictions.

"We've all seen your testimony," the prosecutor held up Sean's testimony and walked back and forth before the jury. "You didn't mention what you were wandering around the streets, nor what you were doing there,

You just said you were in the little park there for a night, and now, it turns out that you lied and you deceived everyone.”

"Lying?" Sean raised his eyebrows, but was not panicked at all. "Yes, I did lie, but sometimes lying is not for deception, but for… protection."

"Protection?" The prosecutor was a little surprised, but before he could ask again, Sean had continued: "I didn't plan to say it out loud, I hope to stay in my heart all the time, but since you asked me to sit here,

I asked me to testify, and I had already sworn, then I had to announce the reason. "

He looked at the jury and took a deep breath, with unprecedented seriousness and honesty. No one could see his expression and would be confused: "I fell in love with a woman, a married woman."

Suddenly, there was an uproar behind the audience, and no one expected that he would say that, so that the judge had to knock twice a small hammer to show quietness.

"We have worked together on movies, and at the beginning I didn't notice this. Although I had a good impression of her, I didn't think too much because... she already has a daughter." Sean said quickly.

"This hesitation made me miss the opportunity. When I realized my emotions it was too late. She had already gotten married last year. I was angry and regretful about it, but I could not seize the opportunity, but...

...I thought I could give up this relationship, but in fact I didn't do it. Since her unwillingness began to roll deep in my heart, it made me unable to get rid of it."

He told the story with emotion that although there were not many expressions and body language, the tone full of emotion, regret, and reluctance had completely attracted the attention of the jury, so that the prosecutor wanted to beat

I don't know where to enter.

"But I know I can't do anything. She's married. I'm a playboy. Yes, I have my bottom line, the bottom line that I have to stick to. But... the more suppressed emotions, the more violent it explodes.

And I didn't tell anyone about this, so I went outside her house that night and looked far away from the street. I didn't know what I was like, but I just wanted to see her from afar.

Even if you just look at it. "Speaking of this, Sean finally stopped and made a long sigh.

He didn't want to describe it in detail at first. It was bad to bring in completely unrelated parties. However, as soon as the reporters checked who lived across the street, they would immediately know it, so it was meaningless to cover it up.

It's better to use it to let him perform.

"Then I have a question, why did you refuse to tell the truth at the beginning, why did you wait until this time to tell it, Mr. Tang?" the prosecutor seized the opportunity and asked, looking like he didn't want to give up.

"Then I also have a question, Mr. Prosecutor," Sean asked immediately, "I said it, can I prove my innocence?"

"I'm asking you the question, Mr. Tang." The prosecutor was a little calm.

"Yes, I know, so I am answering." Sean tattooed and looked at the judge.

The bald judge considered for a few seconds, and then nodded to the prosecutor: "You can continue."

"... No." The prosecutor answered like this, and a trace of anger flashed in his eyes.

"So do you know what will happen next?" Sean asked immediately, pointing behind him without waiting for the answer. "Did you see the people in the seats? They are desperately sending messages."

"They have nothing to do with what we are discussing." The prosecutor obviously didn't want him to master the rhythm.

"No, it's a big deal," Sean interrupted his words, "If I had said this, they would have chased her, chased her family, and harassed them with all kinds of means, the media would have been scattered.

Make up irresponsible stories and even write some unsightly reports!”

This was said to both the jury and to another person. Although she was not here at the moment, Sean had to say it. Perhaps someone in the dark would say that he was hypocritical after seeing this.

However, he doesn't care because he knows what he is doing, he knows what he should do, and being a bystander is always easy.

"I said, I am a playboy, I don't deny it at all, but I also have my own bottom line. Since I can't prove my innocence, why should I drag her in? I ran to Santa Monica alone,

I avoided people's sight, avoided the surveillance equipment, and hid myself in the shadows just to avoid people's discovery and to not cause trouble to her!" Sean said loudly, and the court was already silent at this time.

Then, he gave him a final blow: "I don't know what you think, Mr. Prosecutor, maybe you are used to not caring about other people's feelings, but I am a man, and some things must be carried, even if this will give me

It brings trouble! I could have never spoken until you ask me to testify in court."

"I have nothing to ask." The prosecutor then said in a somewhat embarrassed manner and returned to his position.

Looking at the jury, many people have already shown a sympathy. In order to make trouble, the prosecution specially selected a few relatively conservative ones who pay attention to their families. Most of them are Republican members and are diligent in jurying in church.

Members must admit that their actions are very targeted, and Sean's name is still very loud, but now, with Sean's successful performance, these people have become uncertain factors. Look at their expressions

Then, then

Then the trial ends here, and the next is the time for the jury to discuss. Generally speaking, if the jurors' views are more consistent, then a conclusion will be drawn soon, but if they are not consistent, they will discuss it behind closed doors for three or four days.

It is all possible. At this time, there is no need to worry that they may be affected by the media, because they are all concentrated in the same room, eating, drinking, defecating and urinating here, and they cannot leave or contact the outside world without discussing the results.

"So we just need to wait for the results now. Your testimony is perfect, and they will definitely be impressed..." Frederick said as he followed Sean into the house. Before he could finish his words, he was

The oncoming punch was interrupted.

With a stuffy, the agent took a few steps in a row, leaning down on the wall and bent down to cover his nose, and at the same time, he inhaled the air -conditioning.

"What did I say to you?" Sean stared fiercely, his breathing was extremely heavy in this room where there was no one else except them. His hand, which was clenched into fists, was trembling, "What did I say to you,

Fred! Don't bother her, don't you understand?! This is the fucking time! This is the fucking time you have taken your own initiative, Fred! Do you take my words like a wind in your ears?

! Still say you don't want to do it now! "
