"At the same time, Zhao Yiping, in collusion with Zhao Lele, engaged in fraud and extortion activities. The evidence is conclusive, the nature is vile, and I request to sentence Zhao Yiping to life imprisonment!"
"I request Zhao Lele to compensate the victims' families!"
"Return the 300,000 yuan betrothal gift given by Cai Qian, and return the properties of others."
Gu Chen had finished stating everything.
This lawsuit must be fought to the end.
Hold Zhao Lele accountable!
There are many people like Zhao Lele who commit marriage fraud, and Gu Chen cannot handle them one case at a time.
However, once this case is out, as long as Zhao Lele is severely punished, many who commit marriage fraud and extortion afterward will have second thoughts.
After all, in this day and age, many things will leave evidence once done!
Especially people like Zhao Lele, how many people have indirectly died because of her, how many families have been destroyed?
How much money were Wang Guisheng and Luo Feng swindled out of?
Zhao Lele tricked them out of their houses and assets... indirectly causing the death of Wang Guisheng's parents and leading Luo Feng to suicide.
And these are just the cases where lives were lost.
Those so-called honest people from Zhao Lele's mouth, the people in the village, used their life savings to marry and buy houses, only to be deceived by Zhao Lele.
After being deceived, Zhao Lele just vanished.
But what about these 'honest people' left behind? How do they continue to live?
Their life savings were drained...
Their parents' savings were also drained.
Their wedding brides ran away and couldn't be reached, and reporting to the police was of no use since the house title transfers were voluntary, and the betrothal gifts involved civil liabilities requiring lawsuits.
How are these people supposed to live? How to survive? How to get married again?
How would relatives and friends see these people?
Gu Chen had finished speaking.
Zhao Yiping, in the audience, panicked.
Zhao Yiping was truly panicking now.
Because Gu Chen had presented all the evidence!
The files accumulated over the years, along with various pieces of evidence, he had presented them all!!
What to do?
If this keeps up, she will really go to jail!!
Zhao Yiping felt regret; she shouldn't have extorted money with Zhao Lele!!
She pretended to be Zhao Lele's mother, and once successful, she could get three thousand!
That was three thousand!!
If she could also get her hands on the house, Zhao Yiping could receive seven thousand just from her share!
That means if she succeeded once, Zhao Yiping could get ten thousand!!
Ten thousand yuan!!
Zhao Yiping had little education and ability; she could only work as a waitress in a small town, earning twenty to thirty thousand annually, which wasn't enough for her own expenses.
But all she had to do was pretend to be Zhao Lele's mother and demand extravagant betrothal gifts; she executed it flawlessly...
This time, to get the money, Zhao Yiping even guided Cai Qian, making him admit to sexual coercion.
After doing so much, Zhao Yiping only wanted money; she wanted to earn more money.
Her eyes lit up.
There was still a turning point!
Because the evidence Gu Chen presented was all linked to Zhao Lele!!
The betrothal gift fraud was done by Zhao Lele!! The property fraud was also Zhao Lele's doing.
The properties haven't even come to her!!
She was only pretending to be Zhao Lele's mother; she could just claim ignorance about the other matters!
Zhao Yiping said, "Your Honor, I would like to speak!"
Judge Zhao Zhichao said, "You may speak."
Zhao Yiping said, "What Gu Chen said has nothing to do with me. Today is the first time I learned Zhao Lele is such a person. I only met Zhao Lele a month ago!!"
"I saw that Zhao Lele said she didn't have a mom, so I was willing to be her godmother. As for her trying to defraud the betrothal gift, I really didn't know! I thought she wanted to get married, and as for letting Cai Qian admit to sexual coercion, I didn't guide him on purpose!"
"I just heard Zhao Lele say Cai Qian coerced her, and then she wanted to collect evidence, so I just did what I was told. What does it have to do with me? Zhao Lele did all this alone!! I know nothing about it, Your Honor, I am innocent!!"
Zhao Yiping continued to declare her innocence.
And at this time, Gu Chen said, "I initially thought the evidence presented was enough, Your Honor. However, I specifically asked the police to investigate the personal accounts of Zhao Lele and Zhao Yiping! There has been economic interaction between Zhao Lele and Zhao Yiping for at least three years, and Zhao Yiping has known Zhao Lele for a long time. After every successful fraud, Zhao Lele would transfer a considerable sum to Zhao Yiping, each transaction exceeding thirty thousand yuan."
Zhao Yiping said, "No! I've known Zhao Lele for three years, but I've been her godmother for only a month. I really didn't know about these things!!"
Zhao Yiping remained stubborn.
Faced with her stubbornness, Gu Chen said, "I also have evidence, the dashcam footage from Zhao Lele's car. She forgot to delete it, and I had the police investigate it, and it revealed the conversation inside."
Gu Chen submitted the evidence, but the dashcam only had the audio, with driving footage as the visuals.
Zhao Lele: "Just guide Cai Qian to admit to sexual coercion, then we can have Cai Qian jailed, and then I will ask whether he wants the property title transferred to my name. If not willing, I could demand three million, or else I will report him for sexual coercion."
Zhao Yiping laughed: "Is it that simple? I've done this before; how much is the house worth this time?"
Zhao Lele: "Three million! As long as the house is in hand, it's worth three million. Cai Qian's family has another property belonging to his parents worth one million. If they want a letter of understanding after I report it, they must add twenty thousand more in betrothal gift and also transfer his parents' property title to me, or just watch their son go to jail."
Zhao Yiping: "Not bad, not bad."
The viewers in the live stream saw the dashcam footage and audio, and they were dumbfounded.
[These two are really disgusting!]
[Zhao Lele and Zhao Yiping, scamming others like this? Even resorting to extortion!]
[The key point is that Zhao Lele even caused several deaths!! Taking betrothal gifts and properties and then fleeing, truly disgusting!]
[And Zhao Yiping remains stubborn, still not admitting it? The dashcam footage was presented.]
[Zhao Yiping and Zhao Lele must be severely punished! If people like this aren't, who will dare to marry in the future?]
[Don't say it, I'm already afraid to marry. Seeing normal marriages, even if the house was bought before marriage by the man, the woman would still get some money if they divorce, and don't even think about getting the betrothal gift back; it's the woman's post-marriage property!]
[Indeed, the law has changed now. As long as they cohabited before marriage, betrothal gifts are non-refundable, whether married or not.]
[Damn... Zhao Yiping and Zhao Lele scare me! They must be sentenced! Lawyer Gu prepared the evidence too thoroughly!!]
Zhao Yiping saw the video, heard the audio, and was completely stunned...
Gu Chen had presented so much evidence...
This meant she was truly finished!
