Chapter 805: Chapter 285: They Were All Carefully Selected Trolls
They were just short of breaking into applause and cheering.
In their eyes.
This travel company...
Is downright despicable.
No faith, no morals, they should be sentenced to lose!
The court demanded a thorough investigation of the company, surely many issues will be uncovered.
By then.
The ones who deserve prison will go to prison; the ones deserving capital punishment will face it.
Those who dare to tamper with donation funds...
Should be taught their rightful lesson.
Meanwhile, at the plaintiff’s table.
Xu Liming was completely slumped in his chair, looking pale and devoid of any sparkle in his eyes.
The court’s ruling echoed incessantly in his mind.
Undoubtedly.
They lost, and it was a terrible defeat!
The decision made by the jury, plus the judge’s decision, didn’t lean toward them at all!
Aside from Zhang Qingyuan and Feng Cuihua not needing to pay compensations...
They still had to bear the risk brought by the comprehensive audit on the company!
To know.
The things their company did, many accounts were not presentable.
Such as those donation fund revenues, illegal high-priced kidnapping sales revenue...
Once investigated, it is highly likely that everything will be exposed thoroughly!
And according to the laws of Ames City...
The revocation of their company license, administrative penalties, and criminal penalties for relevant key personnel are unavoidable.
"It’s over, it’s all damn over now..."
He swallowed hard and muttered to himself.
Appearing somewhat dazed.
Beside him.
George’s mental state was equally poor.
The expression of questioning life’s events...
Hadn’t faded away.
As Ames City’s most outstanding lawyer... frёewebnoѵel.ƈo๓
During this trial, he was completely crushed, constantly suppressed, never gaining an upper hand.
Whether it was litigation strategy, eloquence, or evidence presentation, he was utterly defeated.
And his opponent...
Was merely an intern lawyer!
"What a terrifying intern lawyer..."
He pursed his lips, looking somewhat desperately at Qin Mu across the room.
His mood was extraordinarily heavy.
No one would believe that an intern lawyer...
Beat him to a pulp.
"Qin... Mr. Qin, did we win?"
On the other side.
Chen Tiankuo also heard the final verdict, and was initially stunned.
Choosing not to believe.
This scene came too suddenly.
He watched the whole thing anxiously.
But in reality...
The entire situation was an overwhelming crush from start to finish.
In litigation strategy and evidence presentation, legal debate, Qin Mu had a steady advantage.
And the jury...
Had leaned firmly towards them ever since Qin Mu spoke.
Making him feel even more incredible.
Qin Mu’s grasp of psychology was indeed meticulous.
If it were him, he definitely wouldn’t have been able to pick out these "powder kegs" among so many jurors.
"It’s actually quite simple."
Qin Mu noticed the confusion in Chen Tiankuo’s eyes and smiled faintly.
Then patiently explained to him: "I didn’t use many techniques to select these jury members, mainly referenced the characteristics of domestic trolls."
Chen Tiankuo was stunned again: "Trolls?"
He was somewhat puzzled by what Qin Mu meant.
"Just like those trolls online domestically, not very cultured, living mundane or unsatisfactory lives, heavily suppressed..."
Qin Mu glanced at the twelve on the jury and continued: "People like these, given an outlet, they will vent furiously."
Actually.
He selected these jurors entirely based on the template of domestic trolls, aside from their devout faith.
He had dealt with many trolls before.
Knowing their characteristics well.
These jurors were just like trolls.
Their education levels weren’t very high, they had been deceived before, lived quite suppressed lives...
Yet they have a set of their own cognitive standards.
Such people are most easily swayed.
He simply paid them back in their own coin.
Utilizing the jury system’s characteristics, to win this seemingly unwinnable lawsuit.
Otherwise...
It’s incredibly difficult to rely on proving Old Zhang and Cuihua’s agreement signing wasn’t voluntary.
They didn’t have evidence at all.
Even if they had evidence, it would be taken illegally against people’s will via videotaping or recording, which also lacks legal validity.
The court would not recognize it.
"Referencing domestic trolls?"
After hearing Qin Mu’s explanation, Chen Tiankuo’s eyes lit up.
His expression was somewhat excited.
With Qin Mu’s prompt, he seemed to have...
Opened the door to a new world.
Found a shortcut to winning lawsuits.
"Xiao Qin, well done!"
At the defendant’s table.
Zhang Qingyuan and Feng Cuihua were equally very excited, their hands tightly grasped together.
When they heard the verdict, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Aside from not having to pay compensations.
This travel group...
Would start a comprehensive audit, and there’s a chance to recover the other deceived elderly’s money!
"Let’s go, I have to rush back and tell them this good news!"
After receiving the verdict document, Zhang Qingyuan couldn’t wait to stand up.
Walked out of the courtroom.
His level of excitement was no less intense than that of the jurors.
...
At the same time.
In Jin City.
In various major lawyer groups.
In the middle of the night, suddenly burst into activity.
"Oh man! Amazing, my friend sent back news that Qin Mu has already won the case!"
"Textbook-style litigation, case law system plus jury system, can you actually litigate like this?"
"What do you mean? Stop teasing, how did he win?"
"There’s no evidence in this case proving the other party’s fraudulent behavior, yet he still won?"
"What actually happened? Can you explain in detail?"
