Chapter 165 Close combat! Teasing Cai Lan!
"Let me explain it to you, Lawyer Cai."
Lin Hao's voice came.
Cai Lan was shocked.
I became nervous unconsciously.
On the plaintiff's bench.
Lin Hao continued.
"Indeed, as lawyer Cai said, the defendant Qiao Xuebo did not commit the crime of rape, nor did he violate any crime stipulated in my country's current criminal law."
"But we must understand what the purpose of our country's criminal law is."
"Punishment of crimes is the direct purpose of our country's criminal law, but the core purpose contained in it is actually to protect the people."
"Through preventing and punishing crimes, we will protect national security, social public security, and citizens' personal rights, property rights and other legitimate rights and interests."
"Now that this case has been approved by the Supreme People's Procuratorate, we are here to discuss whether this behavior is legal."
"Since it is a discussion, we cannot look at it from the simple perspective of current criminal law, but must make judgments from a deeper nature."
"What we should do is start from the core purpose of criminal law and discuss the legality of the defendant's behavior."
"So what we want to discuss is actually whether the defendant Qiao Xuebo's behavior infringed on national security, social public safety and the legitimate rights and interests of citizens."
"Our prosecutor's opinion is that Qiao Xuebo's behavior violated public order and good customs and violated the legitimate rights and interests of underage girls' physical and mental health."
"Therefore, his behavior must be an illegal and criminal act, and he should receive corresponding criminal punishment!"
Lin Hao immediately clarified the key points that the two sides should discuss.
Focus the argument on whether the defendant's behavior meets the purposes of criminal law.
The debate between the two sides was instantly brought back on track.
In the dock.
Cai Lan suppressed her nervousness and said disdainfully.
"What a public order and good custom!"
"Does Lawyer Lin want to send my client to jail just for the sake of public order and good morals?"
"The female party in this case, Zhao Wen, is over 15 years old this year and has reached the legal age of sexual consent."
"Besides, my client and Zhao Wen are in a romantic relationship, and it is reasonable and legal for them to have sexual intercourse."
"Even though the relationship between the two of them may not be recognized by the public, it may not be completely consistent with what we usually think of as public order and good customs."
"But if Lawyer Lin wants to say that falling in love with a student is an infringement of the student's legitimate rights and interests, it is an illegal crime, isn't that too harsh?"
"I must admit that public order and good morals can sometimes be used as the basis for court trials."
"But in a criminal case, if you only rely on public order and good customs to convict someone, it probably won't be tenable, right?"
Lin Hao raised his eyebrows.
I didn’t expect that Lawyer Cai was quite eloquent.
he said with a smile.
"Lawyer Cai is right. Just relying on these four words, public order and good customs, cannot convict someone."
"But there is a topic I want to discuss with Lawyer Cai."
"Lawyer Cai believes that if a teacher falls in love with an underage student and has a relationship, it will not cause harm to the student's physical and mental health, right?"
Cai Lan responded.
"How about I help Lawyer Lin narrow down the scope."
"I guess what Lawyer Lin wants to say is, if a male teacher falls in love with an underage female student and has sex, will it cause harm to the female student's physical and mental health?"
"What I'm trying to say is, physical and mental health are relative. Why do you say that?"
"Let's first imagine that a female student is fifteen or sixteen years old, which is the age when love begins."
"If he didn't fall in love with his teacher, then he would probably fall in love with other boys of the same age."
"Teacher Lin, do you think a teenage boy knows how to take care of women better, or a mature man in his thirties who knows how to take care of women better?"
"Obviously, a male teacher in his thirties would be more experienced in this area!"
"He can avoid some of the harm that many men of the same age inflict on girls due to lack of experience."
"Even compared to other men in society, a teacher's natural sense of responsibility will allow girls to receive more protection."
"So I think a male teacher is in a relationship with an underage female student."
"Not only will it not cause harm to female students, but it will also prevent female students from being harmed by others."
"Even if there is harm, the harm caused by male teachers must be smaller than that of other men."
"No matter what the situation is, it is not only harmless to the female student, but also protects the physical and mental health of the female student in disguise!"
Cai Lan's rebuttal made Lin Hao look at him with admiration.
Lawyer Cai can do it!
Originally I wanted to dig a hole for her to jump into.
Unexpectedly, she filled the hole directly.
A two-story building was also built on it!
Lin Hao looked at Cai Lan opposite with interest.
He smiled crookedly.
"That makes sense!"
“I didn’t expect Lawyer Cai to have such a prosperous life!”
"Could it be that Lawyer Cai had a similar experience?"
"But I need to remind Lawyer Cai that premature love is not good! Xia Guo does not advocate premature love!"
Cai Lan thought her reaction was very clever just now.
Hearing Lin Hao's teasing.
As his anger grew, he also felt that he had made a mistake.
He openly discussed the love philosophy of underage girls in court.
But she forgot that the mainstream values of Xiaguo do not advocate premature love.
Of course, what she said just now makes sense.
But there is a problem with values.
What a mistake!
Sure enough, I was still a little nervous when facing Lawyer Lin!
The trial has just begun.
Lin Hao doesn't want to get too entangled with Cai Lan.
It's too empty and meaningless to talk about big principles here.
Let's move on to the next stage!
Lin Hao said respectfully to the judge.
"Your Majesty, we have no objection to the defendant's lawsuit request, and I think the defendant should be the same."
"I want to apply to enter the next litigation stage!"
On the judge's bench.
After confirming with the defendant, the presiding judge Gu Yi announced.
"Next, we will enter the next litigation stage."
"Please ask the prosecutor to provide evidence for his litigation claims."
Lin Hao said immediately.
"Your Majesty, I apply for the parties to state the incident first."
The presiding judge Gu Yi nodded.
"Approve the application."
"The defendant Qiao Xuebao will first state the course of events."
The presiding judge finished speaking.
Qiao Xuebao and Zhao Wen were both stunned for a moment.
After looking at each other from a distance.
Qiao Xuebao said with a firm look in his eyes.
"I am Xiaowen's class teacher."
"At the same time, I am also his boyfriend!"
