Chapter 1246: Chapter 1246
On the last day, day 16, Purple Sumrs persuaded Abigail Thompson to testify in court.
On day 15, Aria Jackson brought in information about the officers responsible for the case, revealing a significant loophole—the police had very limited investigation into other suspects after determining that Hans Geoffrey was a pri suspect.
In reality, this is human nature. When all evidence points to one person and captures most of the attention, the police naturally pay less attention to others.
The lack of in-depth investigation into the community security guard and the nearby neighbors gave Purple Sumrs an opportunity.
On day 14, Marcel Jefferson appealed to the Supre Court, citing significant omissions in the prosecution’s work.
anwhile, their investigation into the chat group also yielded results—
After the Rose Date chat group was disbanded six months ago, so mbers regrouped and created a new chat group called hello-rose.
The new chat group was still filled with a lot of explicit content, and was even darker and more depraved.
When they tentatively ntioned Sophia Wilson’s online nickna in the chat group, quite a few mbers recognized her. They boasted about eting her, hooking up, and engaging in various other activities.
Of course, Sophia Wilson had extensive online communication with these n.
One man even explicitly said during the chat, “I love you, I want to kill you, I want to eat you,” and other similar statents.
This was sothing the police had not thoroughly investigated at the ti.
Or perhaps it was difficult for the police to investigate, as the chat group was disbanded almost imdiately, and mbers, fearing incrimination, kept silent. The police, having caught the main suspect, naturally lacked the patience to scrutinize over two hundred group mbers one by one.
Now, more than six months had passed since the case, and these individuals, thinking the dust had settled, recklessly boasted about the past as if showcasing their achievents.
Purple Sumrs did not need to accuse these people of being suspects; he just needed to raise doubts about the case in the minds of the judge and jury to win a lifeline for Hans Geoffrey.
On day 9, Marcel Jefferson’s appeal was accepted by the court, and a pre-trial conference was scheduled for the following day.
…
In the office, Allen Rivera was flipping through the case files, preparing for court.
Suddenly, soone burst through the door—
“Allen Rivera!” Graham Burke shouted angrily, striding up to Allen’s desk and violently slamming a stack of docunts in front of him!
Allen raised an eyebrow slightly as he looked at the docunts before him.
“What the hell are you doing?!” Graham, his face contorted with rage, swore loudly.
At that mont, other colleagues rushed in from outside, grabbing Graham. “Graham Burke! This has nothing to do with Allen!”
“Nothing to do with him?! Do you think I’m an idiot?!” Graham yelled in anger. “This case was closed a long ti ago! The criminal is about to be executed, and now he throws this at , calling for a retrial! Is he deliberately trying to make trouble for ?!”
Allen’s face remained impassive, silent.
Another colleague, worried about Graham causing a scene, tried to calm him down. “It’s Hans Geoffrey’s lawyer trying to overturn the case; it’s really not Allen’s fault…”
“Not his fault?!” Graham sneered, casting a sinister look at Allen. “How convenient that he finds a connection between this case and Black Rose, and then soone imdiately tries to overturn Hans Geoffrey’s case?”
Graham leaned over the desk, glaring at Allen. “You want to investigate Black Rose for credit, fine, just don’t touch my case! Do you think I don’t know? You want to use this case to thoroughly investigate the Black Rose case, is that it? Allen, listen to , I won’t let you get away with it! Never!”
Having thrown down his harsh words, Graham stord out, leaving the colleagues around him in a difficult situation.
“Don’t take it to heart, Graham’s been under a lot of pressure lately. Having an old case dug up for retrial must be frustrating for him.”
Allen’s face remained solemn.
Another colleague entered, “Allen, the attorney general is looking for you.”
