not guilty?
Faced with the risk of being investigated, Li Xiong rubbed his brow hard.
This time, everything was thoroughly ruined.
With such a public uproar, an investigation was inevitable.
He could only hope nothing unexpected happened during the investigation.
"Ah-"
Li Xiong sighed deeply, a trace of regret in his heart.
But...
What was done was done. Regret was useless now!
He could only take things one step at a time!
At that thought, Li Xiong raised his head slightly and turned his attention back to the courtroom, where the hearing and livestream had resumed.
In the courtroom.
The Collegial Panel Members were already in their seats.
Presiding Judge Wang Lei struck the Gavel and said, "The adjournment is over. The hearing will now resume."
"Does either side have anything further to add regarding the arguments above?"
Wang Lei glanced down at the documents, then looked up again, only to find Fang Tang unexpectedly raising his hand to indicate that he had more to add.
He wasn't going to keep spouting nonsense, was he...?
Wang Lei frowned slightly, wanting to deny Fang Tang permission to speak, but ultimately allowed it.
After all...
This was a legitimate request.
If his supplementary remarks were all nonsense, there would still be time to reject them.
In fact.
Wang Lei was right. From the outset, Fang Tang insisted, without any legal basis, that he was innocent and had lacked intent.
His main point was-
He believed that thinking himself innocent was equivalent to being innocent.
In his personal view, he had not subjectively intended to kill Lin Dong, only to teach him a lesson, which meant he had lacked subjective intent.
He tried to persuade the Collegial Panel Members with his own reasoning.
