“Coincidentally, the sentence that Angela said in this video is exactly the same as the sentence in Miss Smith’s video, and even the tone is exactly the same. The presiding judge, I want to compare the two.” Sean said.
Jessica’s pupils shrank slightly, and the blood on her face instantly disappeared completely. Her eyelashes trembled a few times and her heart beat thunderously.
‘Janet...!’
Danis was also shocked, but soon the shock turned into hesitation.
He was only two years older than Jessica. He watched her grow up, and believed that she would not do things like that to frame others!
But what happened to that video in Janet’s Moments? Did she and Angela produce fake evidence together?
Several judges deliberated for a while and decided to hand over the evidence to professionals for comparison, and then took a one-hour intermission.
Jessica was barely calm on the face, but when she was holding the phone, she didn’t control it well, and her hands shook twice.
She opened the WeChat and found Janet’s Moments. When she saw the video, she frowned and her face became paler.
“Miss Smith, are you hiding something from me?” The lawyer didn’t expect to make such a sudden incident, and he was stunned, “Take advantage of the rest now, you can tell me everything, so I can improve and win this case!”
Jessica was stiffened, and was about to speak, but Danis had already come over, “What’s going on? Why is your recording exactly the same as that in the video?”
“What do you mean?” Jessica raised her head and looked at him, a layer of water shone in her eyes, but it didn’t flow down.
“Don’t think too much.” Danis’s eyes flashed. Seeing this, his heart was instantly filled with guilt, “I’m just asking a casual question.”
After half an hour, the court reopened.
The presiding judge announced that after comparison by professionals, the sound in the recording was exactly the same as that in the video. So, it was edited from the video.
There was uproar.
“In addition, Angela’s car was also changed. I don’t know where her previous car was, but the car with brake problem at the scene of the accident was not hers.” Sean said.
Jessica tried to keep calm, but her face was still terrible.
The judge asked, “How to prove it?”
“In the evidence I just submitted, there are some money transfer records and a deposit record of Hamilton, Luca and Grace. Hamilton died of illness two years ago. After investigation, I found that he had received a large sum of money and a large amount of cash before his death.”
“He gave the cash to his lover Grace, which can be found through Grace’s deposit records in that year, and she also come to the scene to prove it.” Sean turned to Grace at the back.
Grace stood up and said, “Hamilton’s monthly salary was only 600 dollars, but he suddenly gave me 50,000 dollars in cash two years ago. I’m afraid he got the money illegally, and I didn’t dare to take it.”
“He told me a man named Luca asked him to change the positions of two cars, and changed the number plates on the two cars. Then he gave him a large sum of money and asked me not to tell others.”
The judge asked, “Does this Luca have anything to do with Miss Smith?”
“Luca is a migrant worker. He did these things because he took money from Miss Smith.” Sean said.
The judge said, “But the transfer record does not contain the two of them. This cannot prove what you said is the truth.”
“The two of them traded in cash, so naturally there was no transfer record.” Sean said.
Jessica’s face eased slightly.
Sean added, “However, Luca watched a lot of spy films and was worried that he was doing something illegal. He was frightened of being found out, and Miss Smith denied it and put the blame on him. When he made the deal with Miss Smith, he secretly recorded it.”
