Chapter 1067 Resonance

"Watching our children, our brothers and sisters, and even our friends, be deluded and seduced and sit back and do nothing?! Watch the crime rate in the city we live in rise day by day and sit back and watch?!

Everyone! It's time to say 'no' to gambling! It's time to take a head-on blow to the dirty and sinful gambling industry! Sun Wei didn't die by suicide, he died by the poison of the casino! He and his family were devastated in this tragedy! Someone has to pay for this! "

The prosecution lawyer was impassioned and vocal.

There was excitement on people's faces.

This is the worst situation. When a lawyer mobilizes the emotions of the audience, the victory is not far away.

Mu Zi silently continued to write on the paper: The third step is to arouse the resonance of all.

It is ironic that the best lawyers often do not come from those well-known law firms, but have been with criminals for a long time.

Because of this kind of experience, each of their lawsuits is particularly difficult, and every court confrontation is fierce, with their lives hanging by a thread. Adversity is the best catalyst for human growth.

Mu Zi stood up slowly.

Where should she begin...

"Gambling leads people to commit crimes, gambling makes people degenerate, and gambling breaks countless families..." Muzi said slowly, "I also hate gambling, but I want everyone to pay attention to one thing——

The casino under the Xianghai Murong Group is legal and compliant. In other words, the operation of casinos is allowed and supported by the local government. Since the opposing lawyer believes that the casino took Sun Wei’s life, should the government that allowed the casino also be partially responsible? "

Mu Zi's eyes swept over the faces of the jury members one by one.

"Are you outraged, why do local governments condone the existence of casinos, just because of the huge profits in this industry, can they ignore the harm of the gambling industry and the safety of people's livelihood?"

Mu Zi paused for a while and continued: "Yes, it's because of huge profits. Do you know the Sky City casino in New Zealand? According to the data released by the Ministry of the Interior of New Zealand, nearly 80% of the income of New Zealand's gaming industry comes in the form of bonuses and charitable grants." Returned to New Zealand residents, in addition to the tax paid, the casino donates more than three million New Zealand dollars to social charitable organizations every year.

The casinos under the Mu Group have always paid 40% of the gross income of the casinos to the government as taxes, creating more than 10 billion fiscal revenue for the government every year, and this year, the Mu Group established a charitable foundation to pay 40% After the gross income, half of the profit must be used for charity.

We put homes into homes for the homeless, we put schools into schools for out-of-school children, and we put medicines in place for the frail and elderly. And the huge amount of tax we pay is used to build cities, build high-rise buildings, repair bridges and roads, fill social relief funds, and improve various municipal constructions..."

Mu Zi looked at the strange faces in front of her, and said in a steady but forceful tone: "Everyone, being rich is not a crime. I don't deny the social harm that gambling brings, but we can't ignore it either. A large number of job opportunities will reduce the pressure of unemployment and promote the development of tourism.

How many industries does this seemingly sinful casino support? Waiters, bartenders, song and dance actors, magicians, retail, catering, hotels, pawn credit... This is a complete system of tourism and service industry! The value created by this part for the city is far greater than the casino itself!

Is it fair for us to be indifferent when it shows its advantages, but to criticize it when it reveals its disadvantages? "

Having said this, Mu Zi adjusted her breathing slightly, and turned her head to look at Liu Weina and her daughter.

"I am deeply sympathetic to Ms. Liu's experience, but I cannot agree with the accusation of the other lawyer. Sun Wei is an adult with the ability to act independently. His death is definitely not persecution by the casino."
