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

The comments section of the live stream is still buzzing with discussion.

A flood of speculation, indignation, and disbelief comments appeared on the page.

Jiang Chen sat in front of the camera, his expression calm.

He waited until the pace of the live stream chat slowed down before speaking slowly and deliberately.

"I've seen everyone's discussion."

"Here, let me clarify one point: what we are reviewing today are facts that have already been adjudicated by the court and are supported by a complete chain of evidence."

"As for other speculations without empirical evidence... my personal view is that it's enough to believe what you see. There's no need to over-interpret things without any basis, nor to rush to conclusions."

His tone was calm, with the usual seriousness of a lawyer.

With the case reaching this point of judgment, the evidence against Gao Jianming and others is irrefutable, and those who should have been brought to justice have already been brought to justice.

But the family connections hidden beneath the surface, in the end, are nothing more than Gao Jianming's few sarcastic remarks before his execution.

There is no documentary evidence, no witnesses, and no other objective evidence to support it.

The law does not recognize conjecture, only evidence.

As soon as he finished speaking, a flood of comments immediately appeared on the screen.

[Does Attorney Jiang mean... that thing could also be true?]

I feel it's highly likely to be true, otherwise Gao Jianming wouldn't have said that!

[It's very likely true, after all, the families didn't pursue the matter!]

[I just have one question: if the family members and the nursing home really colluded, wouldn't those family members be considered to have committed a crime?]

[Yes! If it's true that children pay nursing homes to care for their elderly parents, what law have they broken?]

[It can't be that only the people in nursing homes go to jail while the people behind them get away scot-free, can it?]

Jiang Chen looked at these questions, pondered for two seconds, and gave the most objective legal answer.

"From a legal perspective, if there is evidence that the family members were aware of the situation beforehand, paid the fees voluntarily, and cooperated with the nursing home to complete the entire process, then they are considered accomplices in intentional homicide, suspected of instigating and assisting others to commit murder, and will also bear corresponding criminal responsibility."

"But the prerequisite is—there is evidence."

He paused, then made his point very clearly.

"Currently, this line of information is only supported by a few one-sided remarks made by Gao Jianming before he left."

"There are no transfer records, no communication records, no confessions from family members, nothing at all."

"If Gao Jianming does not come forward to provide evidence, identification, or specific clues, this matter will remain at the level of speculation forever, making it impossible to file a case, let alone convict him."

"The law is based on conclusive and sufficient evidence, not on reasonable doubt or public inference."

In short, it clearly states the reality.

Now, Gao Jianming has been sentenced to life imprisonment.

If he refuses to speak out and doesn't expose the family members behind him, then the truth beneath the surface will most likely remain forever submerged.

There was no need for him to go to such lengths—he was already serving a life sentence, and bringing in another group of people wouldn't reduce his sentence; it would only create more enemies.

Or perhaps, he simply couldn't bring himself to say those words.

Anze Nursing Home is a top-tier nursing home with extremely high fees.

The elderly people who can live there are all from wealthy and powerful families.

Perhaps these are the very people that Gao Jianming is worried about.

It was precisely the existence of these people that prevented him from telling the truth.

The live stream was silent for a few seconds, then the screen was flooded with comments again.

【Oh my god... does that mean those people are okay?】

[Gao Jianming definitely won't tell; it wouldn't do him any good! He might even be threatened!]

[Wasn't he in jail? Why is he being threatened?]

Even though he's in prison, he still has a wife and children, and family and relatives!

[This is chilling to think about; so the most ruthless person actually escaped unscathed?]

How could you do this to your own parents...?

I used to think nursing homes were just unscrupulous, but now I know where the worst of it is.

I can't imagine whether those elderly people, when they were abandoned in the wilderness, knew it was their children who chose that path.

This is too heavy, really too heavy!

Discussion is discussion, and indignation is indignation.

But no one could produce any solid evidence.

Even Jiang Chen only offered an objective explanation based on the legal framework, without drawing any definitive conclusions.

Looking at the scrolling comments, he added, "There's no need for everyone to overthink this."

"Some family members may indeed be unaware of the situation and have simply been deceived by the nursing home."

"And some of them may indeed be tacitly understood."

"As for the specific circumstances of each individual, without evidence, no one can say for sure."

"The world is not black and white, and neither are cases."

"The court has already provided answers to what has been investigated; for what hasn't been investigated, we'll leave it to time and to the investigators who will continue their investigation."

He spoke with great restraint and his attitude was neutral.

Do not stir up trouble or take sides.

Just like he did in court, he only speaks with evidence and only states the facts.

After all... without evidence, any further discussion is just speculation.

But the viewers in the live stream had already followed this lead and were talking about something much deeper.

To put it bluntly, providing for the elderly is still difficult. The old saying, "No filial piety remains at the bedside of a chronically ill person," isn't without reason.

It's difficult, but no matter how difficult it is, I can't hurt anyone, especially my own parents.

[You haven't encountered an elderly person who is bedridden and unconscious for years, so it's easy for you to talk when you're not in their shoes.]

Don't wash it; no matter how difficult it is, it's never a reason to kill.

Stop talking. Human nature is something that can't withstand close scrutiny.

Attorney Jiang is right. Some things don't need to be investigated thoroughly; digging to the bottom only reveals rotten truths!

The initial anger in the comments gradually turned into complex emotions.

Some people criticize the children for being unfilial, some sympathize with the difficulties of caring for the elderly, and some lament the gray areas of human nature.

The noise and commotion were gone, replaced by a far cry from the exhilarating relief that had accompanied the initial sentencing.

Jiang Chen sat in front of the camera and did not participate in the discussion.

He simply stared at the screen, as if he had anticipated everyone's reaction.

After a while, when the comments gradually subsided, he spoke calmly.

"The case of Anze Nursing Home has officially come to an end today."

"Those who should be sentenced have been sentenced, those who should be investigated have been investigated, and the rest will proceed according to the legal procedures."

"Laws are dead, written clearly, but human nature is alive, and always much more complex than laws."

"There's no need for everyone to dwell on this for too long."

"Living your own life well and treating those around you kindly is more important than anything else."

The words were spoken lightly, but carried great weight.

The live stream quieted down considerably, with rows of comments like "Lawyer Jiang is right," "Yeah," and "Sigh..." slowly scrolling through the chat.

There was no heated debate, and everyone seemed somewhat downcast.

This incident has been somewhat of a blow to people.

Although the case is closed, the right and wrong in this matter remain to be determined.

But when it comes to questions about human nature, there are never standard answers.
