Ju-hyuk strongly protested to the court.
They finished taking their seats at the prosecutor’s podium.
As the clock struck the scheduled time for the trial to begin, the presiding judges entered.
“Everyone, please rise.”
Line clenched her fists and stood up. Everyone stood up to show respect to the court and took their seats.
The trial began as the judges recited the case number, following the procedure.
“State the essence of the charges.”
Line stood up and recited the well-organized essence of the charges. The judge asked the defense if they acknowledged these facts.
“No. I deny all charges.”
The defense attorney replied. It was Geum Moran’s defense attorney.
“Submit the list of evidence.”
Both the prosecution and the defense submitted their lists of evidence. The judge examined the evidence lists. Considering the substantial amount of evidence submitted by the prosecution, just the acceptance of the evidence took quite some time.
“All evidence submitted by the prosecution will be accepted.”
In response to the judge’s statement, the defense attorney strongly objected and stepped forward.
“According to Article 316, Paragraph 1 of the Criminal Procedure Code, a statement can be used as evidence only when it is proven to be particularly credible. However, the defendant made the statement in a state of being intimidated and pressured by the prosecutor. Please reject the confession evidence.”
The judges took a moment to discuss. Line turned her head, suppressing the desire to exhale deeply, and opened her eyes.
“We will accept the evidence.”
The defense lawyer gritted his teeth.
“Your Honor, I’d like to inform you in advance. There has been a disruption in today’s scheduled witness attendance. Witness Na Song-kang is in an unconscious state due to a significant traffic accident.”
Line’s words left Chairman Na and Hae-in bewildered. Ju-hyuk was also equally surprised. It was only now that Ju-hyuk realized why Line appeared in court under such unusual circumstances.
“Instead, we will add to the evidence list.”
Line barely restrained the tears about to pour out as she looked at the blood-stained evidence. She handed an additional evidence list to the court clerk.
The lawyer’s eyes moved rapidly from side to side. The judges examined the evidence list. Line had submitted the list in her own handwriting, indicating the urgency.
“We will accept the evidence.”
“Your Honor, this is not pre-notified.”
The defense lawyer strongly objected, but the court did not bend its intention to accept the evidence, considering it essential evidence. The expression of the head of the legal office became noticeably uncomfortable.
“In a document from Taesung Future Strategy Office, the signature ‘Na Song ‘ appeared. Although the defendants claim that this signature belongs to Director Na Song-kang, we will prove through evidence that this is not the case.”
Line displayed the handwriting comparison result with Geum Moran on the project screen.
“You can see that the ‘Na Song ‘ in the first document matches the handwriting of the defendant Geum Moran.”
Line displayed another piece of evidence on the screen. It was a piece of paper pieced together after being shredded in a shredder.
“What is this?”
The presiding judge, who was adjusting his glasses while peering at the screen, asked.
“This is evidence obtained from the defendant Na Song-rim’s office. It also shows traces of evidence destruction. We pieced together paper shredded by a shredder. You can see the trace ‘Na Song ‘ in the signature space. The analysis result matched with numerous signatures from the Future Strategy Office.”
The lawyer obtained the floor to rebut Line’s argument.
“How will you prove that the defendant’s handwriting, which the prosecution claims to have secured, is indeed the defendant’s?”
There was a way to prove it wasn’t entirely impossible. Line held up the paper and, walking steadily, approached the defendant’s seat.
“Unjust things should not happen. So, why don’t we try writing it here directly? Through a handwriting analysis, let’s uncover the truth at the next trial.”
It was a tit-for-tat situation. The defense lawyer put on an awkward smile, hiding the embarrassment.
“Prosecutor, isn’t this too impolite?”
Ignoring such remarks, Line extended the paper once again towards the defense lawyer.
“Your Honor, the prosecutor’s side is clouding the trial atmosphere with unreasonable demands. Please restrain them.”
“Prosecutor, return to your seat.”
Unavoidably, Line had to turn away.
“Defendants, write your name, date of birth, and address by hand and submit it.”
The trial atmosphere in the defendant’s seats instantly turned tense.
Thanks to the clear-headed trial judges, the proceedings were proceeding sensibly.
