Chapter 1067: Resonance

"Watching our children, our brothers and sisters, and even our friends, being bewitched, seduced and sitting idly by?! Watching the crime rate in the city we live in climb day by day and sit idly by?!

Ladies and gentlemen! It's time to say 'no' to gambling! It's time to take a head hit at the dirty and criminal gambling industry! Sun Wei didn't die by suicide, he died from the poisoning of the casino! He and his family were destroyed in this tragedy! Someone has to pay for this! ”

The prosecution's lawyer was impassioned and loud.

Excitement appeared on people's faces.

This is the worst-case scenario, when a lawyer mobilizes the emotions of the whole audience, then victory is not far away.

Mu Zi silently continued to write on the paper: The third step is to resonate with everyone.

Ironically, the best lawyers often do not come from well-known law firms, but have been in the company of criminals for a long time.

Because of this experience, every lawsuit between them is particularly difficult, and every court confrontation is fierce and life hangs by a thread. Danger is the best way to grow.

Mu Zi slowly stood up.

Where does she start......

"Gambling leads to crime, gambling makes people degenerate, gambling breaks up countless families...... Mu Zi said slowly, "I also hate gambling, but I want everyone to pay attention to one thing-

The casinos of Xianghai Murong Group are legal and compliant. In other words, operating a casino 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 to exist also be partially responsible? ”

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

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

Mu Zi paused for a moment and continued: "Yes, it's because of huge profits. Do you know Sky City Casino in New Zealand? According to the data released by the New Zealand Ministry of Home Affairs, nearly eighty percent of the income of the New Zealand gaming industry is returned to New Zealand residents in the form of bonuses and charitable grants, and in addition to the taxes paid, casinos donate more than 3 million New Zealand dollars to social charities every year.

The casino of the Mousse Group has always handed over 40% of the gross income of the casino to the government as a tax, creating more than 10 billion financial revenue for the government every year, and this year, the Mousse Group has set up a charitable foundation, after paying 40% of the gross income, it will take out half of the profit for charity.

We have provided housing for the homeless, education for out-of-school children, and medicine for the infirm and elderly. And the huge taxes we pay are used to build cities, build high-rise buildings, repair bridges and roads, replenish social relief funds, and improve various municipal construction ......"

Mu Zi looked at the unfamiliar faces in front of him, and said in a steady and forceful tone: "Everyone, being rich is not a crime, I do not deny the social harm caused by gambling, but we also cannot ignore that casinos provide a large number of job opportunities for Xianghai City, reduce the pressure of unemployment, and promote the development of tourism."

How many industries does this seemingly sinful casino feed? Waiters, bartenders, cabarets, magicians, retail, restaurants, hotels, pawn credits...... It's a whole tourism and service system! The value created by this part of the city is far greater than the casino itself!

Is it fair that we are indifferent when it shows its merits, but desperately lashes out when it exposes its shortcomings? ”

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

"I deeply sympathize with Ms. Liu's experience, but I cannot agree with the other party's lawyer's accusation, Sun Wei is an adult with the ability to act independently, and his death is definitely not a persecution by the casino."
