Chapter 682 Chapter 682: The judge was deep in thought.
After all, a case backed by the Morgan family could be seen as something entirely different from one with no such influence behind it.
With Wilton and Belen absent, their stance on the matter remained uncertain.
If she made a ruling based purely on the evidence and imposed a severe sentence on Lindsay, could there be consequences or retaliation? Contemplating this, the judges phone vibrated.
Irritated but seeking a brief pause, she picked it up.
Reading a message from a retired colleague, the judges expression turned pale with shock.
How is this possible...? Harlee actually had ties to both the military and the government! The retired colleague, seemingly having anticipated the judges shock, sent another message: Dont worry.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtThe information is trustworthy.
Simply follow the evidence and dont make any mistakes.
The judge examined the message closely before lifting her eyes to Harlee, her expression clouded with concern. Was Harlee truly more influential than the Morgan family? The judge paused, gathering her composure, before settling into her seat on the bench.
The criminal trial concerning the Baythorn shooting incident is now called to order.
The accused, Lindsay Morgan, faces charges before a jury of twelve, with myself presiding as the judge. We shall proceed according to the law.
Having announced the opening, the judges eyes narrowed on Lindsay, her voice taking on a chilling, authoritative tone.
Based on the outcof the online poll, this court tentatively recommends execution by firing squad in three days.
Defendant, do you wish to respond? Step into a new world at galnov????lsLindsays demeanor remained unexpectedly steady as she replied, I declare my innocence.
I did not discharge any firearm.
I was also a victim.
Why am I facing execution? True, I did not intervene immediately, but I was scared.
I was as much a victim as anyone.
Could anyone have assured my safety if I had stepped in? As for Tiffany... By then, I was nearly driven insane by those lunatics.
I cant even recall my actions.
If you doubt my sanity, I request a psychiatric evaluation! I swear that I am not at fault.
At Lindsays self-assured declaration, the courtroom erupted into an uproar.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmVictim? She nearly sent the true victim to the ICU! What a disgraceful liar! How could the Morgan family raise such a disgrace? Its like seeing two saints give birth to a monster! Yet, Lindsay ignored the scorn, her confidence unwavering.
An officer had discreetly told her during the trial that the online court was just for show.
He reassured her that, regardless of the outcome, she would be freed within a month.
As long as the death penalty wasnt a definite outcome, she outcome, she could remain е composed. Lindsay glanced smugly at Harlee, who was sitting at the plaintiffs bench.
Harlee, wheres your evidence that I wasnt sane when I attacked Tiffany? And what proof do you have that was in league with those criminals? Remember, I was kidnapped just like you! You were meant to be like a sister to me, entrusted by my parents to watch over me. For a moment, I believed I had finally found someone who genuinely cared.
But you... Youve chosen to side with strangers to imprison me? Carlee, youre breaking my heart.
