Me! A disgraced celebrity! Starting by seeking justice for impoverished students.

Everyone in the room looked in the direction of the sound.

In the front row of the audience, several of the deceased's family members were seen completely losing control of their emotions.

They simply couldn't accept that their loved ones had died while the other party had gotten away scot-free, without even having to go to jail or pay any compensation!

In their view, the dead are the greatest, and the deceased are the most important!

The old woman suddenly stood up, her eyes bloodshot and her face contorted in a ferocious expression.

She pointed at the defendant's dock and began to cry and scream wildly.

"Why is the murderer being released in court?! My son's life was taken! Why is he completely innocent?!"

The old woman's shrill cries shattered the silence of the courtroom.

The other family members also stood up, their eyes red and their faces full of resentment.

"This is so unfair! This verdict is completely wrong!"

"Our family's breadwinner is gone! How are we supposed to survive? You just casually declared him innocent and wiped out a life!"

The noise was constant.

Standing in the plaintiff's seat, Ye Heng watched this scene and felt a wave of dizziness wash over him.

He swayed and almost fell over on the spot.

Judge Wu Song frowned and slammed the gavel down heavily.

boom!

"Plaintiff's family, please maintain order in the courtroom!"

"The facts of this case are clear, the evidence is conclusive, and the judgment is in accordance with the law and regulations. No noise or disturbance allowed! Silence immediately!"

But the family members, unwilling to let their emotions cloud their judgment, were completely deaf to any warnings at that moment.

Instead of restraining themselves, they became even more outrageous.

The middle-aged woman slapped her thighs with both hands and began to wail loudly.

"What do you mean by 'according to the law and regulations'! I think you're just showing favoritism! Does being rich mean you can kill someone and get away with it? Does that mean ordinary people can die in vain?!"

"What self-defense? It's all a load of nonsense!"

"He's the one who killed that person! Murderers must pay with their lives! Paying compensation and going to jail are only fair!"

The deceased's wife chimed in from the side.

"So what if he drank alcohol! Does drinking alcohol mean he deserves to be hit and killed? Even if my husband was at fault, at most he'd have to apologize and be fined! He doesn't deserve to die!"

"Why is it that he died and the driver bears no responsibility whatsoever! Is there any justice in this world?!"

"I refuse to accept this! I'd rather die than accept it! We absolutely will not accept this verdict!"

Not only that, other family members even turned around and threatened the presiding judge.

"If your court rules like this, we'll report it everywhere! We'll petition higher authorities, go to the media, and make a scene at higher levels!"

"I refuse to believe there's no place in this world where justice prevails! You're biased towards the murderer, we'll keep making a scene until you change the verdict!"

"We absolutely refuse to accept today's verdict! Unless he goes to jail and pays compensation, we're not done with this!"

"..."

A series of outrageous and absurd statements left everyone in the audience speechless.

A sentence popped into everyone's mind.

Are these... still human?

The person who keeps harming others ends up becoming an innocent victim?

Can the statute of limitations be used to ignore all wrongdoing and hijack the judiciary simply because someone is dead?

That's incredibly audacious!

The people in the audience were speechless and shook their heads.

I had some sympathy for the deceased before, but now it has completely vanished!

The viewers in the live stream went wild instantly!

This is outrageous! He got drunk and acted recklessly, then tried to force others to go to jail?!

[Hilarious! Surrounding and threatening a pregnant woman while drunk is a minor offense? Then what is a major offense?]

[Does the dead have a right to do things? Can't this robber's logic wake up?!]

[The court ruled according to the law, and they still dare to threaten to report it? This is utterly lawless!]

[Ignoring the heinous acts of their own family members and focusing solely on the outcome of death—this is such a double standard!]

[Making a scene is useless! The evidence is irrefutable, the law is impartial, and no amount of fussing will change the verdict!]

Jiang Chen stood to the side, his expression calm, his eyes showing no emotion whatsoever.

He had already anticipated that the other family would not be able to accept the outcome.

They might also cause trouble.

Jiang Chen just didn't expect them to be so arrogant and ignorant!

They dared to say these things in front of the presiding judge.

You're so brave!

Judge Wu Song's expression turned completely cold.

The dignity of the court shall not be trampled upon by anyone!

He announced loudly, "Repeated warnings have been ignored; the plaintiff's family members have seriously disrupted court order!"

"Bailiffs! Forcibly remove the disruptive family members from the courtroom!"

Upon receiving the order, several bailiffs on duty immediately stepped forward.

The family members were still unwilling to give up, struggling, crying, and shouting loudly.

It's as if they want everyone to understand their grievances.

"Don't touch us! We don't accept this! This verdict is unfair!"

"We absolutely must report this! This is not over!"

However, the disparity in strength was too great.

After struggling to resist, the individuals were forcibly removed from the trial scene by bailiffs.

The noisy crying and commotion in the courtroom gradually subsided.

The atmosphere in the courtroom returned to its previous solemnity.

Wu Song's gaze swept across the entire room, his voice steady and powerful as he reiterated.

"This court reiterates that the first-instance judgment in this case was based on clear facts, complete evidence, accurate application of the law, and legal procedures!"

"The parties involved have the right to appeal in accordance with the law, but no one may disrupt the court proceedings or challenge judicial authority!"

"The defendant, Dong Xin, is found not guilty and is released in court. This verdict is valid!"

As soon as he finished speaking, the viewers in the live stream were completely relieved.

[Hahaha... He's definitely innocent!]

[And he was released in court immediately! My God!]

[He's made it through! His innocence has finally been preserved!]

This is judicial progress! It's not just about the outcome, but also about considering the specific circumstances!

The defendant was only trying to protect his wife and children; what crime has he committed? He should be innocent!

Wu Song's gaze remained unchanged as he continued reading the second verdict.

"Secondly, regarding the conviction and punishment of Zhou Desheng and Zhang Zhiyuan, who were involved in the case!"

The two plaintiffs were stunned when they heard their names called, and looked at the judge's bench with blank expressions.

Why are they being punished?!

"You two, along with others, twice maliciously surrounded and intimidated, vandalized a car, and caused trouble late at night. Knowing that a pregnant woman in her early stages of pregnancy was inside the vehicle, you continued to harass and coerce her. The circumstances were egregious, severely disrupting public order, and constitute the crime of provoking trouble!"

"Taking into account the circumstances of the crime committed by the two individuals, their subsequent coercion of the victim, and their lack of remorse, the court hereby sentences them accordingly:"

"Defendant Zhou Desheng is sentenced to one year and eight months imprisonment!"

"Defendant Zhang Zhiyuan is sentenced to two years imprisonment!"

As soon as the words were spoken, the two plaintiffs in the dock felt their legs go weak and almost collapsed into their seats, their faces ashen.

They originally thought that their crimes would at most result in a verbal reprimand and a light punishment.

I never dreamed they would be sentenced to prison.

This imprisonment is now unavoidable!

The two men were deathly pale, trembling all over, their eyes filled with despair and regret.

But it was too late.

The viewers in the live stream went wild again!

[Serves him right! Maliciously threatening a pregnant woman deserves severe punishment!]

[Drunk behavior is not an excuse; repeat offenders must be severely punished!]

[They were all sentenced to one or two years; this verdict is fair and appropriate!]

That's right, this sentence is absolutely justified!

Seeing them like this, I can only describe it with four words: utterly gratifying!
