Chapter 1067： resonance

"Looking at our children, our brothers and sisters, and even our friends, being deceived and tempted to ignore it?! Watching the crime rate in the city we live in is rising day by day and just sitting idly by?!

Everyone! It’s time to say ‘no’ to gambling! It's time for a head-on blow to the dirty and sinful gambling industry! Sun Wei did not die by suicide, he died from the poison of the casino! He and his family were destroyed in this tragedy! Someone must pay for this! "

The prosecution lawyer was impassioned and loud.

People's faces showed excitement.

This is the worst-case scenario. When a lawyer mobilizes the mood of the audience, then victory is not far away.

Mu Zi continued to write silently on the paper: The third step aroused the resonance of all.

Ironically, the best lawyers are often not from well-known law firms, but have long been with criminals.

Because this kind of experience makes every lawsuit especially difficult for them, and every court confrontation is fierce, with lives hanging by a thread. Dangerous situation can promote growth most.

Mu Zi slowly stood up.

Where should she start...

"Gambling leads to crime, gambling leads to depravity, gambling breaks up countless families..." Mu Zi said slowly, "I also hate gambling, but I hope everyone pays attention to it--

The casinos under the Xianghai Murong Group are legal and compliant. In other words, operating a casino is permitted and supported by the local government. Since the opposing lawyer believes that the casino has taken Sun Wei's life, should the government that allows the casino to exist should also be partially responsible? "

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

"Are you angry? Why do local governments condone the existence of casinos? Just because of the huge profits in this industry, they can ignore the harm of the gambling industry and disregard the people's livelihood?"

Mu Zilue paused and continued: "Yes, it is because of huge profits. Do you know the Sky City Casino in New Zealand? According to data released by the New Zealand Ministry of the Interior, nearly 80% of New Zealand's gaming industry revenue is in the form of bonuses and charity grants. Returned to New Zealand residents, in addition to the taxes paid, the casino donates more than three million New Zealand dollars to social charities every year.

The Mushi Group’s casinos have always turned 40% of the casino’s gross income as tax to the government, creating more than 10 billion fiscal revenues for the government every year. And this year, the Mushi Group established a charity foundation and paid 40% of it. After gross income, half of the profits will be used for charity.

We provide housing for the homeless, we provide children who are out of school to go to school, and we provide medicine for the frail elderly. And the huge amount of tax we paid is used to build cities, build tall buildings, repair bridges and roads, fill 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, rich is not a crime. I don't deny the social harm caused by gambling, but we can't ignore it either. Casinos provide Xianghai City. A large number of job opportunities reduce unemployment pressure and promote the development of tourism.

How many industries does this seemingly sinful casino feed? Waiters, bartenders, singers and dancers, magicians, retail, catering, hotels, **** loans...this is a whole system of tourism and service industry! This part of the value created for the city is far greater than the casino itself!

We are indifferent when it shows its advantages, but desperately criticize it when it exposes its disadvantages. Is this fair? "

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

"I deeply sympathize with Ms. Liu's experience, but I cannot agree with the other's lawyer's complaint. Sun Wei is an adult with autonomous behavior. His death was definitely not a persecution by a casino."
