Chapter 354
"She asked me to duplicate Cordy Sachs' signature on a huge pile of documents."
"When was that?"
"Around a month ago."
"Do you have evidence that it happened?"
"Yes. I have records of our conversation." Timothy pulled out his phone.
Quinn took it and projected it in the court, displaying to everyone the conversation between Timothy
and Helen.
It was written clearly that Helen had made Timothy help her sign on documents, and there were even
pictures of the signed documents and records of the funds transfer.
It was clearly a significant piece of evidence.
Commotion arose in court, and Noel's face was ashen with horror.
She did not expect Helen to be so foolish as to leave behind so much evidence for others to pick up on!
She even left behind conversation history, fund transfer screenshots, and pictures of signed
documents!
Noel had reminded Helen umpteen times to be careful in all things and not to leave any trace behind.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtDid all her words fall on deaf ears?!
Jessica's entire body stiffened up.
Now that things had progressed to this point, it was looking less likely for Cordy to be convicted of the
crime.
She took a deep breath inwardly, forcing herself to keep calm.
Meanwhile, Quinn said solemnly to Helen, "Evidently, the so-called hard copy tax report was not
personally signed by Cordy. You know very well your company's approval process and that my client's
secretary only accepts handwritten signatures on hard copy before approving it on the system. You
made use of this loophole to frame my client!"
"I, I didn't..." Helen shook with fear.
"If you didn't, how do you explain your chat history with Timothy, and why were you unable to explain
the sudden appearance of so much funds in your account?" Quinn pushed aggressively.
Helen was completely speechless.
Noel did not tell her how she could respond in such a situation. She just instructed her to insist no
matter what that it was Cordy who instigated her to do everything, and that she would give her a sum of
money after the deed was done.
"Your Honor." Quinn turned around. "Based on the witness and evidence provided, it clearly shows that
my client is innocent and has been framed. I beseech the chief judge and the bench to make a fair and
just judgment. I have made my case. Thank you, Your Honor."
With that, Quinn returned to her seat.
"Do you have anything to say, Prosecuting Attorney?" Judge Faden asked.
Victor glanced at the court spectator stand.
Someone from the stands shot him a glance back.
He understood what it meant and said, "None whatsoever, Your Honor."
He was clear that at this point, he had no further evidence to prove that Cordy was guilty of bribery and
tax evasion.
If he were to go on arguing, it would only stretch the trial past the point of no return.
"Your Honor, I am of the opinion that the prosecuting attorney should step forward and investigate this
case clearly. Who exactly is the one who framed my client and for what reason? As a public
prosecuting attorney, he should be concerned with justice for all." Quinn stood up and cornered Victor.
Victor's face turned red.
He had been heavily embarrassed by this twit in court today.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmHe finally managed to squeeze out a response after a long while. "Your Honor, according to the
evidence I have at hand, I am unable to arrive at the circumstances concerning this case and do not
want to inflict unnecessary harm on anyone. I suggest for this case to be handed over to the
procurator’s office once again for further investigation."
Judge Faden nodded. "We'll make a judgment on this case after the procurator's office conducts a
thorough investigation."
"Your Honor, it has been proven that my client is innocent and has been framed by someone else. As a
victim, I do not think that my client
deserves to be burdened by this case, that would be unfair to her. I beseech the chief judge to declare
a judgment over my client today."
She naturally could not allow Cordy to be affected by this case any more than she already was.
Judge Faden seemed to glance over at the spectator stand before saying," We'll adjourn for half an
hour. The bench and I will discuss and make the final verdict on Cordy Sach's charges of bribery and
tax evasion."
Half an hour later, Judge Faden returned to his seat and announced," Regarding Cordy Sachs' tax
evasion case, the official verdict from the People's Supreme Court is hereby announced. Please rise."
Everyone stood up, the air crackling with excitement despite the fact that the outcome was already
known!
