Chapter 1213
Everyone was in an uproar.
The faces of the jury members also showed strange colors.
Xin Lan's description made everyone feel uncomfortable.
Maeve asked in disbelief: "You...call your own flesh and blood, that dirty mass?"
"Otherwise?" Xin Lan looked at Maeve with a smile, "The seed left in your stomach by the rapist, would you regard it as a treasure?"
The uproar broke out again, and there was a lot of discussion in the auditorium.
Maeve's face changed suddenly, and she said loudly: "Please don't record it! The witness's testimony is not supported by relevant evidence!"
Mu Zi was also taken aback for a while.
Qu Mingjun sighed in her ear: "It's too late, even if the clerk doesn't record it, the jury members have already heard it. Before we make a move, Maeve will be played to death by her..."
Compassion is an instinct, the jury will sympathize with the unfortunate fetus, and also sympathize with Ms. Xin Lan who has suffered misfortune.
The judge sounded the gavel, asked for silence, and then reminded the jury members: "The witness just made an allegation of marital rape against the prosecution in her testimony, but her accusation is not supported by relevant evidence, so you can ignore the testimony just now. .”
"Your Honor." Mu Zi stood up, "I would like to add that no matter whether my client is in good health or not, no matter whether my client has been raped or not, as a person, she has the right to dispose of her body arbitrarily."
"The opposing lawyer thinks that a woman can disregard another person's human rights when disposing of her own body?" Maeve couldn't help but ask, "Please forgive me, does the opposing lawyer believe that women's rights are supreme, higher than the reproductive rights of their husbands, and even higher than their children? right to life?"
"I have said many times that this case has nothing to do with women's rights!" Mu Zi was slightly annoyed, "What you see is the human rights of an unborn fetus, what I see is the rights of this living woman who is sitting here right now." Human rights! Why should the human rights of the fetus override the human rights of the mother?! Forcing her to give birth to a child is the most serious violation of human rights!"
"But that child is already seven months old!" Maeve scolded loudly, "He has a heartbeat! He has a brain! He is a life of flesh and blood! And your client is in good health and financial situation, and she is fully capable of raising a child! "
"But she just doesn't want to raise it!" Mu Zi retorted coldly, "She doesn't want to give up a high-paying job abroad, doesn't want to continue to endure a failed marriage, and doesn't want to sacrifice her time and energy to accompany a child from her ex-husband! That's how she is. Selfish!
I also hope that she can be great, endure the humiliation and bear the burden to give birth to the child, for this pure life, give up her career, give up her dream, and dedicate herself without complaint or regret! But she is selfish, not great, not noble! She just wants to live for herself! This is her personal will, and our law respects everyone's free will! Because of freedom! The constitution guarantees that each of us, personal freedom is not infringed! "
Maeve was angry and opened her mouth to retort, but Muzi interrupted her: "You look down on women's rights, don't you? Do you know that women were once unable to study? Did you know that women were once unable to go out to work? Did you know that women were once unable to even wear pants? In 1932, the movie star Marlene Detri was arrested in the police station for wearing trousers. It has only been fifty years since trousers became popular among women!
Women's rights never want to override any rights. Women's rights are free choices. Women can choose to be business women or housewives. They can choose to wear skirts or pants, and they can choose when their uterus have a baby!
With all due respect, Miss Maeve, you are able to achieve what you are today, thanks to the unremitting efforts of feminism! "
——Boom, boom, boom!
The judge struck the gavel vigorously and repeatedly.
Normal court procedures do not allow such radical arguments.
Mu Zi and Mei Fu stopped, and the judge took a deep look at them, and said, "The court is adjourned now, and the trial will continue tomorrow."
Tomorrow, I will take on the case of Black Rose, including the plot of Yu Yang and Zhuang Jia, and I will connect it very smoothly... Good night zZZ...
