00:01:37,000 --> 00:01:38,519
‫(Episode 7)
2
00:01:38,520 --> 00:01:40,040
‫(This is a work of fiction.)
3
00:01:47,960 --> 00:01:48,960
‫He's Mr. Kwan.
4
00:01:49,680 --> 00:01:51,160
‫He will be handling your case.
5
00:01:51,720 --> 00:01:53,800
‫- Is that lawyer really free?
‫- Yes.
6
00:01:53,880 --> 00:01:55,560
‫The clerk will
‫read out your charges.
7
00:01:55,640 --> 00:01:57,960
‫Then the judge will ask you
‫if you understand the charges.
8
00:01:58,320 --> 00:01:59,800
‫If you do, just say "I understand."
9
00:01:59,880 --> 00:02:01,480
‫- But I really didn't...
‫- That's enough.
10
00:02:01,680 --> 00:02:03,576
‫Just tell the judge "I understand"
‫when you're up there.
11
00:02:03,600 --> 00:02:04,696
‫That's all for today's procedure.
12
00:02:04,720 --> 00:02:05,856
‫I want to explain it to the judge.
13
00:02:05,880 --> 00:02:07,536
‫The police got the wrong guy.
‫I didn't steal any money.
14
00:02:07,560 --> 00:02:08,896
‫I've never even been to that hotel.
15
00:02:08,920 --> 00:02:10,120
‫I was sick at home. I...
16
00:02:10,200 --> 00:02:11,840
‫Okay, I understand.
17
00:02:11,920 --> 00:02:14,080
‫Nothing good comes for free.
18
00:02:14,520 --> 00:02:16,000
‫Presenting Exhibit P8,
19
00:02:16,080 --> 00:02:17,960
‫Ho Mei Yee's phone records.
20
00:02:18,200 --> 00:02:19,200
‫Admitted.
21
00:02:19,240 --> 00:02:21,440
‫The first call lasted 15 seconds.
22
00:02:21,520 --> 00:02:23,000
‫The second was 17 seconds.
23
00:02:23,360 --> 00:02:24,720
‫I didn't make that call!
24
00:02:27,240 --> 00:02:28,360
‫Hurry up and refute him!
25
00:02:28,440 --> 00:02:31,320
‫Why don't you give
‫the second defendant some paper...
26
00:02:31,400 --> 00:02:32,896
‫and let him write down
‫what he wants to say to you?
27
00:02:32,920 --> 00:02:33,920
‫Understood.
28
00:02:33,921 --> 00:02:37,080
‫You only remember that the person
‫you argued with in the lobby...
29
00:02:37,160 --> 00:02:39,800
‫was a bearded South Asian man
‫wearing a red jersey.
30
00:02:40,000 --> 00:02:42,080
‫You aren't certain
‫it was the second defendant.
31
00:02:42,160 --> 00:02:43,200
‫Do you agree?
32
00:02:43,480 --> 00:02:44,480
‫I disagree.
33
00:02:48,080 --> 00:02:51,440
‫(He's lying.)
34
00:03:01,520 --> 00:03:03,960
‫Next, I will call an expert witness.
35
00:03:04,480 --> 00:03:06,360
‫He is an expert in gait recognition.
36
00:03:06,760 --> 00:03:08,560
‫He is currently a professor...
37
00:03:08,640 --> 00:03:09,640
‫at the Department
‫of Information Engineering...
38
00:03:09,640 --> 00:03:10,640
‫at the Central South University
‫School of Engineering...
39
00:03:10,640 --> 00:03:11,640
‫in Hong Kong.
40
00:03:11,920 --> 00:03:14,480
‫He specializes
‫in gait recognition technology.
41
00:03:28,880 --> 00:03:30,759
‫Your Honor, I would like
‫to ask the second defendant...
42
00:03:30,760 --> 00:03:31,760
‫to step forward.
43
00:03:32,040 --> 00:03:33,040
‫Granted.
44
00:03:40,320 --> 00:03:42,320
‫Please walk back and forth
‫a few times.
45
00:04:09,960 --> 00:04:10,960
‫That's enough. Thank you.
46
00:04:19,000 --> 00:04:21,840
‫Please explain
‫what these data represent.
47
00:04:22,240 --> 00:04:24,560
‫Walking seems
‫like a very simple task,
48
00:04:24,920 --> 00:04:27,239
‫but it actually involves
‫the central nervous system,
49
00:04:27,240 --> 00:04:28,240
‫body balance,
50
00:04:28,320 --> 00:04:30,400
‫and complex coordination
‫of the limbs.
51
00:04:30,880 --> 00:04:32,520
‫Each person's gait cycle,
52
00:04:32,600 --> 00:04:35,240
‫including initial contact,
‫loading response,
53
00:04:35,320 --> 00:04:37,960
‫mid-stance,
‫terminal swing, and so on,
54
00:04:38,360 --> 00:04:40,560
‫all have unique characteristics.
55
00:04:41,040 --> 00:04:42,960
‫By comparing
‫the crime scene footage...
56
00:04:43,240 --> 00:04:45,240
‫with the footage we just recorded,
57
00:04:45,560 --> 00:04:48,080
‫we can determine
‫if they are the same person.
58
00:04:48,560 --> 00:04:49,960
‫So your conclusion is...
59
00:04:58,640 --> 00:04:59,880
‫They are the same person.
60
00:05:01,880 --> 00:05:02,880
‫No more questions.
61
00:05:06,040 --> 00:05:09,719
‫When you were filming
‫the second defendant just now,
62
00:05:09,720 --> 00:05:10,840
‫was one take enough?
63
00:05:10,920 --> 00:05:12,680
‫- No other angles needed?
‫- No.
64
00:05:12,760 --> 00:05:15,480
‫The defendant's gait was
‫clearly captured just now.
65
00:05:16,160 --> 00:05:18,000
‫So shooting it
‫horizontally like this...
66
00:05:18,080 --> 00:05:19,919
‫is the best angle
‫for analysis, correct?
67
00:05:19,920 --> 00:05:20,920
‫Yes.
68
00:05:21,320 --> 00:05:22,359
‫In other words,
69
00:05:22,360 --> 00:05:25,400
‫the high angle of the CCTV is
‫not ideal?
70
00:05:25,760 --> 00:05:28,280
‫The footage just now
‫provided sufficient data.
71
00:05:28,480 --> 00:05:29,480
‫Then I'd like to ask,
72
00:05:29,481 --> 00:05:31,920
‫will the camera angle
‫affect the results?
73
00:05:32,720 --> 00:05:34,920
‫Yes, but it doesn't matter
‫in this case.
74
00:05:35,000 --> 00:05:37,520
‫Assuming both clips were
‫taken from the best angles,
75
00:05:38,240 --> 00:05:40,800
‫is the computer's accuracy
‫100 percent?
76
00:05:41,320 --> 00:05:43,200
‫It can only reach 98 percent.
77
00:05:43,960 --> 00:05:45,800
‫Even with the best angle,
78
00:05:46,080 --> 00:05:48,400
‫is there still
‫a 2 percent error rate?
79
00:05:48,720 --> 00:05:50,720
‫No test result in the world...
80
00:05:50,800 --> 00:05:52,280
‫is 100 percent accurate.
81
00:05:52,560 --> 00:05:54,440
‫Since it's not 100 percent accurate,
82
00:05:54,520 --> 00:05:56,360
‫it's possible
‫that it's not the same person.
83
00:05:56,600 --> 00:05:57,600
‫Do you agree?
84
00:05:58,120 --> 00:06:00,280
‫I cannot completely
‫rule out that possibility.
85
00:06:00,560 --> 00:06:02,480
‫But the chance is very slim.
86
00:06:06,120 --> 00:06:07,640
‫Is this CCTV footage...
87
00:06:07,720 --> 00:06:09,120
‫sufficient for analysis?
88
00:06:09,480 --> 00:06:10,480
‫Yes.
89
00:06:10,680 --> 00:06:12,240
‫And the angle of this footage...
90
00:06:12,320 --> 00:06:13,680
‫won't affect the result?
91
00:06:14,160 --> 00:06:15,200
‫Yes, that's right.
92
00:06:19,560 --> 00:06:20,880
‫The Avalon Hotel lobby.
93
00:06:22,120 --> 00:06:23,280
‫Inside elevator number two.
94
00:06:24,480 --> 00:06:25,760
‫The floor of Room 821.
95
00:06:27,120 --> 00:06:28,400
‫And these last few photos...
96
00:06:28,480 --> 00:06:29,696
‫show the streets
‫from the Avalon Hotel...
97
00:06:29,720 --> 00:06:32,760
‫to the second defendant's home.
98
00:06:33,400 --> 00:06:34,856
‫All the CCTV footage
‫caught the defendant...
99
00:06:34,880 --> 00:06:36,840
‫wearing a red Red Devils jersey,
100
00:06:37,080 --> 00:06:38,200
‫a black crossbody bag,
101
00:06:38,560 --> 00:06:41,040
‫black sweatpants, and gray sneakers.
102
00:06:41,360 --> 00:06:42,520
‫Next, please describe...
103
00:06:42,600 --> 00:06:45,000
‫the search of
‫the second defendant's home.
104
00:06:45,360 --> 00:06:46,936
‫When we apprehended
‫the second defendant,
105
00:06:46,960 --> 00:06:48,800
‫we searched his residence.
106
00:06:49,240 --> 00:06:51,200
‫Soon after, in a plastic box,
107
00:06:51,400 --> 00:06:54,160
‫we found 123,500 dollars.
108
00:06:54,400 --> 00:06:55,680
‫What were the denominations?
109
00:06:56,120 --> 00:06:57,360
‫They were all 500-dollar bills.
110
00:06:57,600 --> 00:06:59,720
‫There were
‫247 500-dollar bills in total.
111
00:07:00,040 --> 00:07:01,040
‫And a few coins.
112
00:07:01,320 --> 00:07:02,920
‫One 5-dollar coin
‫and four 10-cent coins.
113
00:07:03,120 --> 00:07:05,240
‫How much did the victim
‫report stolen?
114
00:07:05,320 --> 00:07:07,440
‫A total of 247 500-dollar bills.
115
00:07:07,800 --> 00:07:10,160
‫Totaling 123,500 dollars.
116
00:07:10,840 --> 00:07:13,160
‫Why are you so sure that money
‫belongs to Chung Ho Ching?
117
00:07:13,240 --> 00:07:15,120
‫The amount and denominations
‫are the same.
118
00:07:15,320 --> 00:07:16,400
‫The same?
119
00:07:16,600 --> 00:07:18,760
‫The amount you found
‫at the second defendant's home...
120
00:07:18,840 --> 00:07:21,520
‫was 123,505.40 dollars.
121
00:07:21,920 --> 00:07:25,040
‫I meant the amount
‫and denominations of the banknotes.
122
00:07:25,440 --> 00:07:27,600
‫You said you found
‫a smoked Seven Horses cigarette...
123
00:07:27,680 --> 00:07:30,080
‫in the hotel toilet?
124
00:07:30,360 --> 00:07:31,360
‫Yes.
125
00:07:31,920 --> 00:07:33,280
‫On this cigarette,
126
00:07:33,360 --> 00:07:35,520
‫did you find
‫the second defendant's DNA?
127
00:07:35,840 --> 00:07:38,160
‫No. It was soaked in saltwater,
‫so it was destroyed.
128
00:07:40,280 --> 00:07:42,440
‫Then, on the hotel room door lock
‫or safe,
129
00:07:42,520 --> 00:07:45,120
‫did you find the second defendant's
‫fingerprints or DNA?
130
00:07:45,440 --> 00:07:46,440
‫No.
131
00:07:46,560 --> 00:07:47,560
‫In the entire room,
132
00:07:47,640 --> 00:07:49,640
‫was there not a single fingerprint
‫or trace of DNA?
133
00:07:49,880 --> 00:07:51,120
‫The defendant works in repairs.
134
00:07:51,480 --> 00:07:53,480
‫I believe he has
‫a habit of wearing gloves.
135
00:07:54,080 --> 00:07:55,960
‫Witness, just answer the question.
136
00:07:56,040 --> 00:07:57,400
‫There is no need for speculation.
137
00:08:00,880 --> 00:08:02,159
‫(He's framing me!)
138
00:08:02,160 --> 00:08:03,199
‫(I didn't go up there.)
139
00:08:03,200 --> 00:08:04,320
‫(I didn't go there.)
140
00:08:04,600 --> 00:08:05,816
‫Which came first, which came later?
141
00:08:05,840 --> 00:08:06,840
‫I don't know.
142
00:08:10,440 --> 00:08:11,440
‫Mr. Kwan?
143
00:08:12,520 --> 00:08:13,520
‫No further questions.
144
00:08:20,440 --> 00:08:21,440
‫Mr. Kwan.
145
00:08:22,440 --> 00:08:24,256
‫Does the defense have a submission
‫of no case to answer?
146
00:08:24,280 --> 00:08:25,280
‫Yes.
147
00:08:25,480 --> 00:08:26,480
‫You may begin.
148
00:08:27,360 --> 00:08:28,480
‫The defense believes that...
149
00:08:28,520 --> 00:08:30,159
‫even taking
‫the prosecution's evidence...
150
00:08:30,160 --> 00:08:31,280
‫at its highest,
151
00:08:31,600 --> 00:08:34,320
‫the prosecution has failed
‫to establish a prima facie case...
152
00:08:34,600 --> 00:08:37,320
‫to prove the second defendant
‫stole the room key...
153
00:08:37,400 --> 00:08:39,360
‫and the money from the safe.
154
00:08:40,200 --> 00:08:41,920
‫The prosecution's entire case...
155
00:08:42,000 --> 00:08:44,960
‫is built on the statement
‫of the first defendant, Ho Mei Yee.
156
00:08:45,280 --> 00:08:47,240
‫But a co-defendant's
‫written statement...
157
00:08:47,320 --> 00:08:49,920
‫cannot be used
‫against another defendant.
158
00:08:51,240 --> 00:08:53,176
‫Furthermore, the prosecution's
‫first witness claimed...
159
00:08:53,200 --> 00:08:56,000
‫that when the second defendant
‫stole the hotel room key,
160
00:08:56,080 --> 00:08:58,160
‫he didn't even recognize
‫the second defendant.
161
00:08:58,640 --> 00:09:00,320
‫Even if the prosecution
‫has CCTV footage...
162
00:09:00,400 --> 00:09:01,760
‫and other circumstantial evidence,
163
00:09:02,000 --> 00:09:04,040
‫it's actually just
‫a case of mistaken identity.
164
00:09:04,480 --> 00:09:06,800
‫Furthermore, the quality
‫of these clips varies.
165
00:09:06,880 --> 00:09:08,200
‫Some are not clear enough.
166
00:09:08,400 --> 00:09:10,520
‫Some images are even quite blurry.
167
00:09:11,320 --> 00:09:12,616
‫It is fundamentally difficult
‫to determine...
168
00:09:12,640 --> 00:09:15,360
‫anyone's facial features or height.
169
00:09:15,720 --> 00:09:17,600
‫Regarding
‫the prosecution's expert witness,
170
00:09:17,920 --> 00:09:20,720
‫the expert stated
‫that the person in the CCTV...
171
00:09:20,800 --> 00:09:22,720
‫is the same person
‫as the second defendant.
172
00:09:22,960 --> 00:09:24,320
‫What does the defense have to say?
173
00:09:25,080 --> 00:09:27,520
‫The defense disagrees
‫with the expert witness's opinion.
174
00:09:29,880 --> 00:09:31,840
‫The defense simply says
‫they disagree?
175
00:09:33,720 --> 00:09:36,280
‫Understood. We are also looking
‫for an expert witness.
176
00:09:36,600 --> 00:09:37,920
‫You're only trying now?
177
00:09:39,280 --> 00:09:40,560
‫We have been looking all along.
178
00:09:40,880 --> 00:09:42,040
‫So you just can't find one.
179
00:09:59,600 --> 00:10:03,120
‫Based on the above grounds,
‫the defense asks that Your Honor...
180
00:10:03,440 --> 00:10:05,280
‫rules that there is
‫no prima facie case.
181
00:10:05,360 --> 00:10:07,040
‫The second defendant has
‫no case to answer.
182
00:10:07,480 --> 00:10:08,480
‫Mr. Lau?
183
00:10:10,240 --> 00:10:12,200
‫The prosecution has
‫no response to the submission.
184
00:10:18,600 --> 00:10:20,240
‫I now rule...
185
00:10:20,920 --> 00:10:22,240
‫that there is a prima facie case.
186
00:10:22,600 --> 00:10:24,560
‫The second defendant has
‫a case to answer.
187
00:10:55,000 --> 00:10:57,160
‫The gentleman in the back
‫asked me to give this to you.
188
00:11:00,680 --> 00:11:01,680
‫Do you want it?
189
00:11:04,160 --> 00:11:05,560
‫(You get 0 points.)
190
00:11:28,680 --> 00:11:29,680
‫Are you "X" -ing me?
191
00:11:36,520 --> 00:11:37,600
‫I want to get off the bus.
192
00:11:51,600 --> 00:11:53,200
‫Very good. How about this side?
193
00:11:53,920 --> 00:11:56,240
‫This side.
194
00:11:56,760 --> 00:11:58,840
‫This hand.
195
00:12:05,240 --> 00:12:06,280
‫Give me your paw.
196
00:12:23,800 --> 00:12:25,960
‫How do you usually address
‫Ramesh Ramaiah,
197
00:12:26,040 --> 00:12:27,520
‫the defendant in this case?
198
00:12:28,320 --> 00:12:29,320
‫Ah Lam.
199
00:12:30,160 --> 00:12:31,960
‫On October 15, 2024,
200
00:12:32,040 --> 00:12:33,640
‫did Ah Lam go to your shop?
201
00:12:34,200 --> 00:12:36,400
‫He arrived at 8:30am
‫to open the shop.
202
00:12:36,960 --> 00:12:39,320
‫However, he wasn't
‫feeling well that day.
203
00:12:39,560 --> 00:12:41,480
‫He had no strength to move things.
204
00:12:41,680 --> 00:12:43,840
‫By noon, I couldn't stand
‫seeing him like that,
205
00:12:44,000 --> 00:12:45,360
‫so I told him to go home and rest.
206
00:12:45,520 --> 00:12:46,520
‫What time was that?
207
00:12:47,200 --> 00:12:48,400
‫A bit past 12pm.
208
00:12:49,920 --> 00:12:53,080
‫When Ah Lam left your shop,
‫was his face pale?
209
00:12:53,320 --> 00:12:54,320
‫Yes.
210
00:12:54,321 --> 00:12:55,840
‫Given Ah Lam's condition
‫at the time,
211
00:12:55,920 --> 00:12:59,120
‫do you think he would go
‫steal things instead of going home?
212
00:12:59,640 --> 00:13:00,640
‫Leading question.
213
00:13:04,040 --> 00:13:05,280
‫How long have you known Ah Lam?
214
00:13:06,400 --> 00:13:07,520
‫About six years.
215
00:13:08,320 --> 00:13:10,520
‫I've known him for as long
‫as he has worked at the shop.
216
00:13:11,040 --> 00:13:12,560
‫What do you think of Ah Lam?
217
00:13:15,280 --> 00:13:17,240
‫He's very reliable and hardworking.
218
00:13:18,000 --> 00:13:19,160
‫The customers like him.
219
00:13:19,960 --> 00:13:21,319
‫If there's a problem
‫with an appliance,
220
00:13:21,320 --> 00:13:22,600
‫they always ask for him.
221
00:13:23,680 --> 00:13:24,680
‫He's very helpful.
222
00:13:25,840 --> 00:13:26,960
‫In these past six years,
223
00:13:27,040 --> 00:13:29,320
‫has Ah Lam ever stolen money
‫from your shop?
224
00:13:30,880 --> 00:13:31,880
‫No.
225
00:13:32,640 --> 00:13:34,000
‫Has he ever been dishonest?
226
00:13:34,880 --> 00:13:35,880
‫Never.
227
00:13:36,360 --> 00:13:37,800
‫How do you pay his wages?
228
00:13:38,120 --> 00:13:39,800
‫- I pay in cash.
‫- Why?
229
00:13:39,880 --> 00:13:40,880
‫It's convenient.
230
00:13:41,360 --> 00:13:43,880
‫I don't like using digital currency,
231
00:13:43,960 --> 00:13:45,096
‫bank transfers,
‫and things like that.
232
00:13:45,120 --> 00:13:46,280
‫I find it too complicated.
233
00:13:46,840 --> 00:13:49,400
‫So I also collect cash
‫from my customers.
234
00:13:49,760 --> 00:13:51,120
‫The cash you use for wages,
235
00:13:51,200 --> 00:13:53,040
‫what denominations
‫are they usually in?
236
00:13:53,120 --> 00:13:54,160
‫Five hundred-dollar notes.
237
00:13:54,320 --> 00:13:56,920
‫If I don't have enough,
‫I'll use some 100-dollar notes.
238
00:13:57,400 --> 00:13:59,120
‫- What about 1,000-dollar notes?
‫- No.
239
00:13:59,320 --> 00:14:01,720
‫My shop has a sign saying
‫we don't accept 1,000-dollar notes.
240
00:14:02,080 --> 00:14:03,080
‫As far as you know,
241
00:14:03,081 --> 00:14:05,720
‫how does Ah Lam handle his wages?
242
00:14:06,520 --> 00:14:07,680
‫I wouldn't know about that.
243
00:14:08,200 --> 00:14:09,560
‫I just know he's very frugal.
244
00:14:09,880 --> 00:14:12,760
‫He always says he's saving up
‫to build a house in his hometown.
245
00:14:13,200 --> 00:14:14,920
‫Thank you. No further questions.
246
00:14:23,280 --> 00:14:26,440
‫You mentioned earlier
‫that the second defendant is frugal.
247
00:14:26,680 --> 00:14:27,680
‫In what way is he frugal?
248
00:14:28,200 --> 00:14:31,440
‫I often see him recording
‫his work hours in a notebook.
249
00:14:31,840 --> 00:14:33,160
‫He even counts every single hour.
250
00:14:34,040 --> 00:14:36,600
‫So he values money very much.
‫Would you say that's true?
251
00:14:38,040 --> 00:14:39,040
‫I suppose so.
252
00:14:39,360 --> 00:14:41,240
‫Since he values money so much,
253
00:14:41,320 --> 00:14:43,520
‫could he have stolen the money
‫out of a moment of greed?
254
00:14:44,640 --> 00:14:45,640
‫No.
255
00:14:49,680 --> 00:14:50,720
‫He wouldn't.
256
00:14:55,320 --> 00:14:56,320
‫No further questions.
257
00:14:59,280 --> 00:15:00,680
‫No re-examination from the defense.
258
00:15:01,800 --> 00:15:02,840
‫The witness may step down.
259
00:15:14,200 --> 00:15:16,240
‫Your Honor,
‫the defense rests its case.
260
00:15:17,160 --> 00:15:18,160
‫What?
261
00:15:18,520 --> 00:15:20,000
‫- That's it?
‫- That's it.
262
00:15:20,480 --> 00:15:21,600
‫Is that all?
263
00:15:22,600 --> 00:15:23,920
‫The defense only has one witness.
264
00:15:25,840 --> 00:15:28,040
‫What about an expert witness?
‫You really don't have one?
265
00:15:28,400 --> 00:15:30,120
‫The defense will not
‫call an expert witness.
266
00:15:32,720 --> 00:15:35,200
‫Will the defendant testify,
267
00:15:35,800 --> 00:15:37,199
‫or will he rely solely...
268
00:15:37,200 --> 00:15:39,016
‫on the statement he gave
‫at the police station?
269
00:15:39,040 --> 00:15:41,080
‫- I need to take instructions.
‫- Permission granted.
270
00:15:41,320 --> 00:15:45,040
‫Defense, consider if there are
‫any other witnesses.
271
00:15:45,840 --> 00:15:47,040
‫Thank you, Your Honor.
272
00:15:54,440 --> 00:15:55,880
‫Why don't we find an expert witness?
273
00:15:56,880 --> 00:15:58,280
‫Someone to prove that it wasn't me.
274
00:16:00,160 --> 00:16:01,560
‫I consulted four expert witnesses.
275
00:16:01,640 --> 00:16:03,800
‫All four said it was you
‫after watching the footage.
276
00:16:06,320 --> 00:16:07,360
‫Let me ask you again.
277
00:16:08,160 --> 00:16:09,520
‫Will you consider pleading guilty?
278
00:16:10,680 --> 00:16:12,856
‫If you plead guilty now, you won't
‫get a one-third sentence reduction,
279
00:16:12,880 --> 00:16:15,240
‫but at least you'll make
‫a good impression on the judge.
280
00:16:16,440 --> 00:16:18,440
‫I really did
‫take the minibus that day.
281
00:16:19,360 --> 00:16:21,120
‫I got off and walked home.
282
00:16:21,320 --> 00:16:23,160
‫I never entered the hotel
‫or the alley.
283
00:16:23,320 --> 00:16:24,936
‫There's no record of your
‫Octopus card on the minibus.
284
00:16:24,960 --> 00:16:27,056
‫The CCTV didn't capture you
‫on the route you mentioned.
285
00:16:27,080 --> 00:16:29,480
‫How can I help you
‫if you have no evidence?
286
00:16:32,000 --> 00:16:33,080
‫Nothing was captured of me.
287
00:16:33,440 --> 00:16:34,920
‫But the thief
‫was captured so clearly.
288
00:16:36,120 --> 00:16:37,160
‫Are the police framing me,
289
00:16:37,320 --> 00:16:38,496
‫or are you not trying to help me?
290
00:16:38,520 --> 00:16:40,120
‫Why don't you just plead guilty?
291
00:16:45,520 --> 00:16:46,720
‫I'll tell the judge myself.
292
00:17:03,800 --> 00:17:06,080
‫If he testifies,
‫the prosecution will tear him apart.
293
00:17:10,480 --> 00:17:12,840
‫Actually, this case was doomed
‫from the start.
294
00:17:19,600 --> 00:17:21,560
‫I, Ramesh Ramaiah,
295
00:17:21,960 --> 00:17:26,160
‫do solemnly, sincerely,
‫and truly declare...
296
00:17:28,320 --> 00:17:32,440
‫that the evidence I shall give
‫shall be the truth,
297
00:17:32,760 --> 00:17:34,880
‫the whole truth,
298
00:17:36,200 --> 00:17:37,280
‫and nothing but the truth.
299
00:17:43,160 --> 00:17:44,400
‫Please tell us what happened...
300
00:17:44,440 --> 00:17:46,960
‫on the morning of the incident,
301
00:17:47,040 --> 00:17:48,360
‫October 15, 2024.
302
00:17:49,040 --> 00:17:51,320
‫When I woke up that day,
‫I felt very unwell.
303
00:17:51,760 --> 00:17:55,520
‫Then, because I was in a hurry,
304
00:17:55,600 --> 00:17:56,800
‫I forgot to bring my phone.
305
00:17:57,200 --> 00:17:59,000
‫- Did you go back for it?
‫- No.
306
00:18:00,080 --> 00:18:03,200
‫So you didn't have your phone
‫with you at work that day?
307
00:18:03,720 --> 00:18:04,760
‫Yes.
308
00:18:05,360 --> 00:18:07,840
‫The phone stayed at home
‫the whole time?
309
00:18:08,240 --> 00:18:09,360
‫Yes.
310
00:18:10,240 --> 00:18:11,680
‫Where did you go after leaving home?
311
00:18:11,760 --> 00:18:13,800
‫To the shop. I went to work.
312
00:18:14,360 --> 00:18:15,976
‫What time did you arrive
‫at the shop that day?
313
00:18:16,000 --> 00:18:18,400
‫I'm always punctual.
‫I arrived at 8:30am.
314
00:18:19,120 --> 00:18:20,840
‫What happened
‫after you arrived at the shop?
315
00:18:21,880 --> 00:18:25,800
‫I felt more and more unwell
‫after I got there.
316
00:18:26,520 --> 00:18:28,760
‫At around 12pm,
317
00:18:29,520 --> 00:18:32,360
‫the boss saw I wasn't well
‫and told me to leave early.
318
00:18:32,680 --> 00:18:34,520
‫He gave me half a day's pay.
319
00:18:35,120 --> 00:18:36,120
‫And then?
320
00:18:36,640 --> 00:18:40,800
‫Usually, I walk home
‫to save on the bus fare.
321
00:18:41,400 --> 00:18:43,439
‫But that day,
‫after walking for a bit,
322
00:18:43,440 --> 00:18:44,456
‫I really couldn't take it.
323
00:18:44,480 --> 00:18:47,560
‫A minibus happened to arrive
‫at the nearby stop,
324
00:18:48,080 --> 00:18:49,240
‫so I got on.
325
00:18:49,320 --> 00:18:50,320
‫What time was that?
326
00:18:50,840 --> 00:18:51,840
‫At that time...
327
00:18:52,000 --> 00:18:55,720
‫It was around 12:15pm or 12:20pm.
328
00:18:56,040 --> 00:18:57,440
‫Where did you get off?
329
00:18:57,880 --> 00:19:00,040
‫The minibus stop
‫near the Avalon Hotel.
330
00:19:00,560 --> 00:19:01,640
‫What time did you get off?
331
00:19:02,560 --> 00:19:05,960
‫I think it was around 12:40pm.
332
00:19:06,760 --> 00:19:07,760
‫And then?
333
00:19:08,080 --> 00:19:09,600
‫Then I walked home.
334
00:19:10,440 --> 00:19:11,440
‫Your Honor,
335
00:19:11,720 --> 00:19:14,280
‫I have a street map
‫of the hotel's vicinity.
336
00:19:14,520 --> 00:19:15,840
‫I'd like the defendant to draw...
337
00:19:15,920 --> 00:19:18,120
‫the route he took after getting off.
338
00:19:18,640 --> 00:19:19,720
‫Granted.
339
00:19:29,120 --> 00:19:31,880
‫Please draw your route home
‫on the map.
340
00:19:38,280 --> 00:19:40,840
‫(Jade Shop, Avalon Hotel)
341
00:19:43,000 --> 00:19:44,440
‫(Mira Place)
342
00:19:48,280 --> 00:19:50,200
‫Defendant, do you see...
343
00:19:50,280 --> 00:19:52,960
‫the red and green routes on the map?
344
00:19:53,280 --> 00:19:54,320
‫Yes.
345
00:19:54,960 --> 00:19:57,160
‫The green route is
‫the prosecution's case,
346
00:19:57,240 --> 00:19:58,399
‫the route taken
‫by the first defendant...
347
00:19:58,400 --> 00:19:59,616
‫and the first prosecution witness...
348
00:19:59,640 --> 00:20:01,360
‫to the jade shop.
349
00:20:01,440 --> 00:20:03,760
‫The red route is from CCTV footage
‫of nearby streets,
350
00:20:03,840 --> 00:20:06,480
‫showing a person in a red jersey...
351
00:20:06,560 --> 00:20:08,120
‫leaving the hotel.
352
00:20:21,080 --> 00:20:23,520
‫On October 15, 2024,
‫on your way home,
353
00:20:23,600 --> 00:20:24,960
‫did you go anywhere else?
354
00:20:25,280 --> 00:20:29,160
‫Such as the areas marked
‫by the red and green lines?
355
00:20:29,680 --> 00:20:31,160
‫No, I was so sick that day.
356
00:20:31,240 --> 00:20:32,296
‫How could I have the energy to walk?
357
00:20:32,320 --> 00:20:34,520
‫Are you sure you didn't go
‫anywhere else,
358
00:20:34,600 --> 00:20:35,960
‫including the hotel?
359
00:20:36,320 --> 00:20:39,120
‫Of course not.
‫I don't go to those hotels.
360
00:20:39,720 --> 00:20:41,480
‫They're so expensive.
‫Why would I go?
361
00:20:41,920 --> 00:20:43,240
‫What time did you get home?
362
00:20:44,720 --> 00:20:46,520
‫Around 12:45pm.
363
00:20:47,240 --> 00:20:48,640
‫What did you do after getting home?
364
00:20:49,680 --> 00:20:52,520
‫I slept. I remember I didn't
‫wake up until it was dark.
365
00:20:53,720 --> 00:20:54,840
‫I have no further questions.
366
00:21:05,920 --> 00:21:10,920
‫Please state your arrival
‫and departure times once more.
367
00:21:11,520 --> 00:21:14,040
‫I got off at 12:40pm.
368
00:21:14,120 --> 00:21:17,040
‫I got home at 12:45pm.
369
00:21:18,560 --> 00:21:21,080
‫Please open Prosecution Exhibit P6.
370
00:21:21,720 --> 00:21:23,480
‫Look at photos 1 to 72.
371
00:21:35,160 --> 00:21:37,320
‫Did you pass through these streets
‫on your way home?
372
00:21:44,240 --> 00:21:45,680
‫Yes, I passed through these streets.
373
00:21:45,880 --> 00:21:46,920
‫The photos here...
374
00:21:47,000 --> 00:21:49,400
‫are based on the route map
‫you just drew,
375
00:21:49,680 --> 00:21:52,040
‫and the CCTV screenshots we found...
376
00:21:52,120 --> 00:21:54,960
‫along the way
‫during that time period.
377
00:21:55,560 --> 00:21:58,200
‫Please point out
‫which one captured you.
378
00:22:06,080 --> 00:22:07,080
‫You can't find it?
379
00:22:15,520 --> 00:22:18,080
‫I don't know why,
‫but I really did go home.
380
00:22:18,920 --> 00:22:19,920
‫It doesn't matter.
381
00:22:20,520 --> 00:22:23,320
‫Now look at photos 65 to 72.
382
00:22:25,080 --> 00:22:27,160
‫Is this the entrance to your
‫building?
383
00:22:27,720 --> 00:22:28,720
‫Yes.
384
00:22:29,240 --> 00:22:30,240
‫Are you in there?
385
00:22:31,000 --> 00:22:32,000
‫I should be here.
386
00:22:32,880 --> 00:22:34,040
‫Under that eave.
387
00:22:37,560 --> 00:22:38,560
‫I can't see you.
388
00:22:39,600 --> 00:22:41,120
‫It's just too dark to see clearly.
389
00:22:41,440 --> 00:22:43,040
‫It's not just that I can't
‫see you here.
390
00:22:43,760 --> 00:22:45,280
‫If you really walked home,
391
00:22:45,360 --> 00:22:47,600
‫why didn't any CCTV capture you?
392
00:22:52,560 --> 00:22:53,560
‫How about this?
393
00:22:53,800 --> 00:22:55,800
‫Let's look
‫at Prosecution Exhibit P4.
394
00:22:56,320 --> 00:22:58,680
‫Photos 29, 30, and 31.
395
00:23:06,200 --> 00:23:07,200
‫Photo 29.
396
00:23:08,080 --> 00:23:10,000
‫Is that you at the hotel entrance?
397
00:23:10,240 --> 00:23:11,240
‫No, it's not me.
398
00:23:11,640 --> 00:23:12,640
‫What about photo 30?
399
00:23:17,880 --> 00:23:18,880
‫Not me.
400
00:23:18,880 --> 00:23:19,880
‫Not you again.
401
00:23:20,280 --> 00:23:22,880
‫Photo 31, downstairs from your home.
402
00:23:22,960 --> 00:23:23,960
‫Is that you?
403
00:23:27,160 --> 00:23:28,480
‫I don't go home this way.
404
00:23:28,560 --> 00:23:29,800
‫This is the red route.
405
00:23:30,760 --> 00:23:32,000
‫Do you live alone?
406
00:23:32,320 --> 00:23:34,240
‫No, there's Pei Pei.
407
00:23:34,560 --> 00:23:35,560
‫Who is Pei Pei?
408
00:23:35,840 --> 00:23:36,840
‫My cat.
409
00:23:38,320 --> 00:23:40,200
‫Did you leave the house
‫during that time?
410
00:23:49,440 --> 00:23:50,440
‫Second defendant?
411
00:23:51,120 --> 00:23:52,120
‫I've got it!
412
00:23:52,680 --> 00:23:53,800
‫It's Pei Pei!
413
00:23:55,640 --> 00:23:56,960
‫It's my cat.
414
00:23:57,160 --> 00:23:58,840
‫I've got it. It was her.
415
00:23:58,920 --> 00:24:00,000
‫What about your cat?
416
00:24:00,280 --> 00:24:01,320
‫That phone call.
417
00:24:01,680 --> 00:24:03,120
‫That phone call was made by Pei Pei.
418
00:24:04,280 --> 00:24:06,360
‫How could I not remember?
419
00:24:06,560 --> 00:24:09,160
‫When I got home that day,
‫I saw her playing with my phone.
420
00:24:09,800 --> 00:24:10,920
‫I just remembered it now.
421
00:24:11,000 --> 00:24:14,160
‫The last time I got back home,
‫she was playing with it too.
422
00:24:14,240 --> 00:24:16,880
‫Second defendant,
‫what are you talking about?
423
00:24:17,280 --> 00:24:18,920
‫How can a cat make a phone call?
424
00:24:19,000 --> 00:24:20,960
‫She can. She knows how.
425
00:24:21,200 --> 00:24:22,320
‫She has done it before.
426
00:24:22,480 --> 00:24:24,856
‫She presses buttons randomly.
‫Sometimes it doesn't go through.
427
00:24:24,880 --> 00:24:26,496
‫Sometimes she calls people
‫without knowing who they are.
428
00:24:26,520 --> 00:24:27,560
‫She really can make calls.
429
00:24:27,640 --> 00:24:29,200
‫It's true. I'm not lying.
430
00:24:30,080 --> 00:24:32,000
‫Your Honor, I would like
‫to request a recess.
431
00:24:32,080 --> 00:24:33,600
‫Let me speak with the defendant.
432
00:24:33,680 --> 00:24:34,720
‫I'm serious.
433
00:24:35,000 --> 00:24:37,480
‫She called that girl last time,
‫Your Honor.
434
00:24:37,840 --> 00:24:40,040
‫Isn't your phone locked?
435
00:24:40,280 --> 00:24:41,800
‫It is, but she can unlock it.
436
00:24:41,880 --> 00:24:44,280
‫She's smart. She copies what I do.
437
00:24:44,360 --> 00:24:46,720
‫She knows how to draw
‫this pattern to unlock it.
438
00:24:46,800 --> 00:24:49,760
‫After unlocking,
‫you have to dial eight digits.
439
00:24:49,840 --> 00:24:51,200
‫And then press the call button.
440
00:24:51,480 --> 00:24:52,560
‫Yes, exactly.
441
00:24:54,560 --> 00:24:57,040
‫- Can your cat really make a call?
‫- Yes.
442
00:24:59,080 --> 00:25:00,800
‫I would really like to see that.
443
00:25:05,440 --> 00:25:07,280
‫This is the first time
‫I've heard such a claim.
444
00:25:07,520 --> 00:25:09,480
‫Your Honor,
‫please grant me 15 minutes...
445
00:25:09,560 --> 00:25:10,720
‫to clarify the situation.
446
00:25:11,040 --> 00:25:12,040
‫Mr. Lau.
447
00:25:12,600 --> 00:25:15,440
‫Is the second defendant's phone
‫in your possession?
448
00:25:15,520 --> 00:25:16,520
‫Yes.
449
00:25:17,000 --> 00:25:18,000
‫Mr. Kwan,
450
00:25:18,440 --> 00:25:21,240
‫are you considering
‫bringing the cat to court?
451
00:25:28,120 --> 00:25:30,040
‫Mr. Lau, any objections?
452
00:25:32,720 --> 00:25:33,880
‫Bringing an animal to court,
453
00:25:33,960 --> 00:25:36,200
‫I'm concerned
‫about wasting the court's time.
454
00:25:41,680 --> 00:25:43,400
‫But if Your Honor
‫deems it necessary,
455
00:25:43,480 --> 00:25:44,480
‫I have no objection.
456
00:25:47,000 --> 00:25:49,720
‫The defendant insists
‫on the "cat making the call"...
457
00:25:49,800 --> 00:25:51,360
‫as his ground for defense.
458
00:25:51,440 --> 00:25:52,640
‫We must at least prove...
459
00:25:52,720 --> 00:25:54,960
‫that his cat can unlock the phone.
460
00:26:01,160 --> 00:26:02,160
‫Correct?
461
00:26:19,280 --> 00:26:20,280
‫Lam.
462
00:26:20,680 --> 00:26:22,160
‫- Mr. Cheung.
‫- How is it?
463
00:26:24,080 --> 00:26:25,120
‫- Is it done?
‫- It's done.
464
00:26:25,320 --> 00:26:26,320
‫Thank you.
465
00:26:26,560 --> 00:26:27,560
‫Okay, that's all.
466
00:26:27,561 --> 00:26:28,640
‫- Bye.
‫- Bye.
467
00:26:33,920 --> 00:26:35,480
‫Are we really bringing Pei Pei
‫to court?
468
00:26:35,560 --> 00:26:37,440
‫Yes, I'll bring her
‫to court tomorrow morning.
469
00:26:38,160 --> 00:26:39,560
‫Why are you dragging her into this?
470
00:26:44,760 --> 00:26:47,400
‫I heard pleading guilty
‫will get you a lighter sentence.
471
00:26:48,840 --> 00:26:49,840
‫Don't be stubborn.
472
00:26:56,560 --> 00:26:57,800
‫Even you don't believe me?
473
00:27:22,320 --> 00:27:23,320
‫Defense.
474
00:27:24,040 --> 00:27:26,200
‫May I call the second witness
‫for the defense?
475
00:27:29,200 --> 00:27:30,200
‫Yes.
476
00:27:36,400 --> 00:27:38,600
‫Dr. Cheng, please state
‫your occupation.
477
00:27:39,040 --> 00:27:40,216
‫I am a registered veterinarian...
478
00:27:40,240 --> 00:27:42,440
‫with a valid practicing certificate
‫in Hong Kong.
479
00:27:43,240 --> 00:27:44,240
‫Thank you.
480
00:27:45,120 --> 00:27:48,600
‫Dr. Cheng,
‫if someone claims that his pet,
481
00:27:48,680 --> 00:27:49,880
‫such as a cat,
482
00:27:50,160 --> 00:27:52,480
‫is able to unlock his smartphone,
483
00:27:52,560 --> 00:27:54,360
‫how would you interpret this?
484
00:27:55,080 --> 00:27:56,240
‫First, I would ask...
485
00:27:56,320 --> 00:27:58,640
‫what the unlocking method is.
486
00:27:59,040 --> 00:28:00,560
‫If it's a six-digit code,
487
00:28:00,640 --> 00:28:02,040
‫and the digits aren't repeated,
488
00:28:02,120 --> 00:28:05,000
‫like six 0s, six 1s, and so on,
489
00:28:05,480 --> 00:28:08,960
‫the likelihood of a cat unlocking it
‫is extremely slim.
490
00:28:09,440 --> 00:28:10,840
‫What if it is...
491
00:28:10,920 --> 00:28:13,000
‫a Z-shaped pattern like this?
492
00:28:14,480 --> 00:28:16,080
‫The IQ of an average house cat...
493
00:28:16,160 --> 00:28:18,560
‫is roughly equal
‫to a toddler aged two to three.
494
00:28:19,160 --> 00:28:21,880
‫They can consciously
‫mimic their owners...
495
00:28:21,960 --> 00:28:24,200
‫by performing
‫simple repetitive actions,
496
00:28:24,280 --> 00:28:27,840
‫like opening door locks
‫or turning on fans.
497
00:28:28,760 --> 00:28:31,400
‫So I believe
‫if the phone's password...
498
00:28:31,480 --> 00:28:33,080
‫is a simple pattern,
499
00:28:33,480 --> 00:28:35,640
‫it's actually possible
‫for a cat to unlock it.
500
00:28:36,640 --> 00:28:37,800
‫At least the probability...
501
00:28:37,880 --> 00:28:40,560
‫is much higher
‫than a numeric password.
502
00:28:41,320 --> 00:28:42,616
‫The defense would like
‫to invite Dr. Cheng...
503
00:28:42,640 --> 00:28:45,000
‫to conduct a live test
‫with my client's cat.
504
00:28:45,360 --> 00:28:46,840
‫I request your permission,
‫Your Honor.
505
00:28:47,080 --> 00:28:48,080
‫Granted.
506
00:28:52,120 --> 00:28:56,440
‫Pei Pei.
507
00:28:59,160 --> 00:29:00,160
‫Pei Pei.
508
00:29:21,160 --> 00:29:23,640
‫In the cage is Pei Pei,
‫the second defendant's cat.
509
00:29:25,640 --> 00:29:28,400
‫This is a simulated phone
‫used for testing.
510
00:29:29,360 --> 00:29:31,840
‫The model is identical to the one
‫used by the second defendant.
511
00:29:39,760 --> 00:29:41,200
‫The unlock pattern is also the same.
512
00:29:49,840 --> 00:29:50,840
‫Okay.
513
00:29:54,800 --> 00:29:55,800
‫Thank you.
514
00:30:04,920 --> 00:30:06,560
‫The phone is now locked again.
515
00:30:07,760 --> 00:30:08,760
‫Dr. Cheng, if you please.
516
00:30:24,840 --> 00:30:26,360
‫When a cat is in a strange place,
517
00:30:26,440 --> 00:30:27,960
‫it needs time to adjust.
518
00:30:28,040 --> 00:30:29,280
‫So please be quiet.
519
00:30:29,360 --> 00:30:30,760
‫Try not to disturb it.
520
00:30:31,440 --> 00:30:32,440
‫Understood.
521
00:31:31,000 --> 00:31:32,000
‫Pei Pei.
522
00:31:33,200 --> 00:31:35,280
‫Pei Pei, be good. Unlock the phone.
523
00:31:36,120 --> 00:31:37,840
‫Second defendant, please be quiet.
524
00:31:49,720 --> 00:31:52,800
‫Pei Pei.
525
00:31:53,560 --> 00:31:55,720
‫Okay.
526
00:32:03,920 --> 00:32:04,920
‫Pei Pei.
527
00:32:23,520 --> 00:32:24,520
‫Witness.
528
00:32:25,160 --> 00:32:26,960
‫It's not responding
‫to the phone at all.
529
00:32:27,880 --> 00:32:31,080
‫Perhaps Your Honor shouldn't
‫get too close.
530
00:32:45,360 --> 00:32:47,520
‫Why was it so agitated just now?
531
00:32:52,320 --> 00:32:54,080
‫Dr. Cheng, you can speak freely.
532
00:32:55,280 --> 00:32:57,960
‫I suspect it doesn't
‫like Your Honor.
533
00:33:00,200 --> 00:33:01,520
‫I didn't do anything.
534
00:33:01,840 --> 00:33:03,240
‫Why wouldn't it like me?
535
00:33:04,240 --> 00:33:05,520
‫It might be the clothing.
536
00:33:05,960 --> 00:33:07,480
‫Cats feel uneasy around dark colors.
537
00:33:08,000 --> 00:33:10,120
‫Your black robe makes it nervous.
538
00:33:10,520 --> 00:33:11,920
‫Or perhaps the scent.
539
00:33:12,440 --> 00:33:14,480
‫Pei Pei doesn't
‫like Your Honor's scent.
540
00:33:17,600 --> 00:33:20,800
‫Do they teach animal communication
‫in veterinary school?
541
00:33:21,360 --> 00:33:23,040
‫How do you know what it's thinking?
542
00:33:23,440 --> 00:33:25,960
‫Is what you're saying
‫a guess or an inference?
543
00:33:27,160 --> 00:33:28,880
‫I am actually
‫studying animal communication.
544
00:33:29,920 --> 00:33:32,760
‫Should I treat you
‫as an expert in science...
545
00:33:32,840 --> 00:33:34,800
‫or an expert in the mystical arts?
546
00:33:35,440 --> 00:33:36,920
‫Some things can't be explained yet,
547
00:33:37,000 --> 00:33:38,600
‫but that doesn't mean
‫they don't exist.
548
00:33:38,880 --> 00:33:42,000
‫But the court cannot
‫accept unfounded claims.
549
00:33:43,760 --> 00:33:44,760
‫Mr. Kwan,
550
00:33:44,880 --> 00:33:47,360
‫do you have any other questions
‫for the witness?
551
00:33:48,040 --> 00:33:49,800
‫Why don't we wait a little longer?
552
00:33:50,080 --> 00:33:51,640
‫Do you realize
‫that what you're doing...
553
00:33:51,720 --> 00:33:53,600
‫is wasting the court's time?
554
00:33:55,680 --> 00:33:56,720
‫I apologize, Your Honor.
555
00:33:56,800 --> 00:33:58,160
‫If you have no more questions,
556
00:33:58,400 --> 00:34:00,160
‫it's the prosecution's turn
‫to cross-examine.
557
00:34:01,320 --> 00:34:03,320
‫Why don't we wait a little longer?
558
00:34:03,400 --> 00:34:05,480
‫Since we've arranged this,
‫a bit more...
559
00:34:05,560 --> 00:34:07,040
‫Do you have any other questions?
560
00:34:14,880 --> 00:34:16,320
‫The defense has
‫no further questions.
561
00:34:17,080 --> 00:34:18,840
‫Your Honor, the prosecution
‫has no questions.
562
00:34:19,480 --> 00:34:21,016
‫Your Honor,
‫please wait a little longer.
563
00:34:21,040 --> 00:34:22,256
‫It will definitely use the phone.
564
00:34:22,280 --> 00:34:23,880
‫It loves playing
‫with the phone normally.
565
00:34:23,960 --> 00:34:24,960
‫Mr. Kwan,
566
00:34:25,120 --> 00:34:26,880
‫can you control
‫your client's emotions?
567
00:34:26,960 --> 00:34:27,960
‫I'm not lying.
568
00:34:28,000 --> 00:34:29,320
‫That call really was made by her.
569
00:34:30,200 --> 00:34:31,440
‫I am sorry, Your Honor.
570
00:34:31,640 --> 00:34:33,399
‫Please allow me
‫to take further instructions...
571
00:34:33,400 --> 00:34:34,400
‫from the defendant.
572
00:34:34,560 --> 00:34:36,040
‫Your Honor, I beg you.
573
00:34:36,280 --> 00:34:37,440
‫That will be all for today.
574
00:34:38,160 --> 00:34:39,880
‫The case is adjourned
‫until next Monday,
575
00:34:39,960 --> 00:34:41,720
‫resuming at 9:30am.
576
00:34:42,360 --> 00:34:43,400
‫All rise.
577
00:35:01,480 --> 00:35:02,616
‫No matter what,
‫you must get the judge...
578
00:35:02,640 --> 00:35:03,760
‫to let us try one more time.
579
00:35:07,440 --> 00:35:09,400
‫I really don't know what to say.
580
00:35:10,080 --> 00:35:12,480
‫I understand being stubborn,
‫I really do.
581
00:35:12,560 --> 00:35:13,960
‫Everyone tries to hold out.
582
00:35:15,720 --> 00:35:17,440
‫I'll still defend you.
583
00:35:18,800 --> 00:35:20,360
‫But if you hold out until the end,
584
00:35:20,440 --> 00:35:22,280
‫you'll still have to plead guilty.
585
00:35:23,480 --> 00:35:25,400
‫How can you be so ridiculous?
586
00:35:25,480 --> 00:35:26,760
‫How can you have no bottom line?
587
00:35:27,800 --> 00:35:28,960
‫Defending you like this,
588
00:35:29,040 --> 00:35:30,520
‫even I find it absurd.
589
00:35:31,240 --> 00:35:33,480
‫How have I no bottom line?
‫How am I ridiculous?
590
00:35:33,560 --> 00:35:34,640
‫Calm down.
591
00:35:36,760 --> 00:35:37,776
‫How am I being ridiculous?
592
00:35:37,800 --> 00:35:38,920
‫I really didn't do it.
593
00:35:39,000 --> 00:35:40,440
‫That's really enough.
594
00:36:01,240 --> 00:36:02,240
‫I want to change lawyers.
595
00:36:12,000 --> 00:36:13,440
‫Changing lawyers won't help.
596
00:36:14,720 --> 00:36:16,360
‫No one can help you.
597
00:36:16,880 --> 00:36:19,240
‫The evidence is
‫solid and irrefutable.
598
00:36:20,240 --> 00:36:21,416
‫If you had just listened
‫to me earlier...
599
00:36:21,440 --> 00:36:23,600
‫You've treated me like a thief
‫from the very beginning.
600
00:36:24,400 --> 00:36:25,920
‫You haven't listened to me at all.
601
00:36:27,400 --> 00:36:29,920
‫You look down on me.
‫What right do you have?
602
00:36:30,440 --> 00:36:31,560
‫I look down on you too.
603
00:36:32,960 --> 00:36:34,560
‫Your firm is only in Sham Shui Po.
604
00:36:35,120 --> 00:36:37,160
‫Do you think you are
‫a big-shot lawyer from Central?
605
00:36:49,760 --> 00:36:51,320
‫I've said it so many times.
606
00:36:52,160 --> 00:36:53,320
‫I didn't steal anything.
607
00:36:53,960 --> 00:36:56,000
‫Why won't anyone listen to me?
608
00:37:08,960 --> 00:37:09,960
‫I didn't do it.
609
00:37:11,320 --> 00:37:12,320
‫I really didn't.
610
00:37:13,880 --> 00:37:14,880
‫I really didn't.
611
00:37:17,600 --> 00:37:18,680
‫I really didn't.
612
00:37:22,440 --> 00:37:23,440
‫I really didn't.
613
00:37:31,720 --> 00:37:32,960
‫I really didn't steal anything.
614
00:38:02,960 --> 00:38:03,960
‫Is that you?
615
00:38:05,320 --> 00:38:06,320
‫What do you think?
616
00:38:07,720 --> 00:38:08,720
‫Of course it's you.
617
00:38:10,160 --> 00:38:11,280
‫Then it's me.
618
00:38:11,760 --> 00:38:12,920
‫They even have photos of you.
619
00:38:13,160 --> 00:38:14,160
‫You can't deny it.
620
00:38:14,160 --> 00:38:15,160
‫Forget it.
621
00:38:18,440 --> 00:38:19,440
‫Yes.
622
00:38:19,560 --> 00:38:22,600
‫Don't worry, we won't fire you
‫no matter what happens.
623
00:38:23,600 --> 00:38:24,640
‫You'll be on unpaid leave.
624
00:38:25,120 --> 00:38:27,440
‫You know how hard
‫business is these days.
625
00:38:30,320 --> 00:38:32,360
‫Mr. Kwan, I've thought about it.
626
00:38:33,360 --> 00:38:35,040
‫Forget it, I'll plead guilty.
627
00:38:39,760 --> 00:38:41,240
‫Have you thought this through?
628
00:38:45,480 --> 00:38:47,280
‫It's important to say it clearly.
629
00:38:49,560 --> 00:38:51,200
‫Yes, I've thought it through.
630
00:38:51,560 --> 00:38:52,560
‫I plead guilty.
631
00:38:56,800 --> 00:38:57,800
‫Let me remind you.
632
00:38:58,480 --> 00:39:00,360
‫If the judge sentences you to jail,
633
00:39:00,440 --> 00:39:02,520
‫you'll lose
‫the one-third sentence reduction.
634
00:39:02,920 --> 00:39:05,680
‫It's likely to be
‫less than 20 percent now.
635
00:39:18,040 --> 00:39:19,040
‫I understand.
636
00:39:19,040 --> 00:39:20,040
‫Okay, then.
637
00:39:20,400 --> 00:39:21,599
‫I'll inform the court
‫as soon as possible...
638
00:39:21,600 --> 00:39:22,720
‫that you're pleading guilty.
639
00:39:27,720 --> 00:39:29,000
‫When the court reconvenes,
640
00:39:29,800 --> 00:39:33,000
‫the clerk will ask you
‫if you plead guilty.
641
00:39:33,840 --> 00:39:35,000
‫You will say yes.
642
00:39:36,040 --> 00:39:39,400
‫The clerk will then ask if you agree
‫with the prosecution's case.
643
00:39:39,480 --> 00:39:40,880
‫You will agree.
644
00:39:41,480 --> 00:39:43,480
‫The judge will then find you guilty.
645
00:39:43,880 --> 00:39:45,880
‫Then I will plead for leniency.
646
00:39:46,520 --> 00:39:47,840
‫I hope the court will be lenient.
647
00:39:48,360 --> 00:39:49,536
‫It's okay if you don't
‫understand now.
648
00:39:49,560 --> 00:39:50,760
‫I'll explain it to you slowly.
649
00:39:51,040 --> 00:39:52,216
‫The most important thing now...
650
00:39:52,240 --> 00:39:54,240
‫is to check the prosecution's case.
651
00:39:55,040 --> 00:39:56,040
‫Let me read it to you.
652
00:39:58,880 --> 00:40:00,760
‫The second defendant, which is you,
653
00:40:01,440 --> 00:40:03,600
‫after entering the Avalon Hotel,
654
00:40:03,680 --> 00:40:06,840
‫you went to the lobby
‫to take the elevator.
655
00:40:08,320 --> 00:40:10,960
‫The prosecution says
‫you took elevator number two.
656
00:40:11,920 --> 00:40:14,240
‫Here is a screenshot
‫of you in the lift.
657
00:40:15,320 --> 00:40:17,520
‫After the elevator
‫reached the eighth floor,
658
00:40:17,600 --> 00:40:18,640
‫you exited the elevator...
659
00:40:19,120 --> 00:40:22,000
‫and walked down the hall
‫to Room 821.
660
00:40:22,080 --> 00:40:23,160
‫I've seen this girl before.
661
00:40:27,000 --> 00:40:28,296
‫The one in front of
‫the elevator buttons?
662
00:40:28,320 --> 00:40:29,320
‫Yes.
663
00:40:29,321 --> 00:40:30,696
‫You were in the elevator with her.
‫Of course you've seen her.
664
00:40:30,720 --> 00:40:32,080
‫No, I've seen her somewhere else.
665
00:40:33,960 --> 00:40:34,960
‫Where?
666
00:40:35,040 --> 00:40:36,136
‫I was on a minibus
‫with her that day.
667
00:40:36,160 --> 00:40:37,160
‫We got off together.
668
00:41:03,760 --> 00:41:05,000
‫Mr. Kwan,
669
00:41:06,160 --> 00:41:08,160
‫does the defense
‫have any other witnesses?
670
00:41:09,160 --> 00:41:10,760
‫I mean a normal one.
671
00:41:10,840 --> 00:41:13,040
‫A normal human witness.
672
00:41:20,520 --> 00:41:23,440
‫Your Honor, I have received
‫new instructions from the defendant.
673
00:41:23,760 --> 00:41:25,680
‫The second defendant wishes
‫to retract...
674
00:41:25,760 --> 00:41:27,560
‫the testimony
‫he gave earlier in court.
675
00:41:30,960 --> 00:41:31,960
‫Defendant.
676
00:41:33,240 --> 00:41:34,839
‫Have you considered this carefully?
677
00:41:34,840 --> 00:41:35,840
‫Yes.
678
00:41:37,680 --> 00:41:40,160
‫As the defendant has changed
‫his instructions for this case,
679
00:41:40,240 --> 00:41:42,280
‫and the new instructions conflict
‫with the old ones,
680
00:41:42,760 --> 00:41:46,800
‫the defendant will hire
‫a new legal representative...
681
00:41:46,880 --> 00:41:48,200
‫to act on these new instructions.
682
00:41:48,320 --> 00:41:50,440
‫I will no longer
‫be representing the defendant.
683
00:41:55,920 --> 00:41:56,920
‫Mr. Lau?
684
00:41:59,000 --> 00:42:00,399
‫I have no objection.
685
00:42:00,400 --> 00:42:02,120
‫The prosecution has
‫already rested its case.
686
00:42:02,360 --> 00:42:04,000
‫Even if the defense
‫changes its stance,
687
00:42:04,080 --> 00:42:06,440
‫the prosecution does not need
‫to present its evidence again.
688
00:42:06,960 --> 00:42:10,560
‫Has the defendant found
‫a new legal representative?
689
00:42:11,320 --> 00:42:12,760
‫As far as I know, he has.
690
00:42:12,840 --> 00:42:14,016
‫It will take some time to arrange.
691
00:42:14,040 --> 00:42:15,400
‫How much time is needed?
692
00:42:15,880 --> 00:42:16,880
‫About four weeks.
693
00:42:17,360 --> 00:42:20,680
‫Defendant, are four weeks enough?
694
00:42:21,280 --> 00:42:23,280
‫Yes, a meeting has
‫already been scheduled.
695
00:42:25,640 --> 00:42:26,640
‫Granted.
696
00:42:27,040 --> 00:42:29,960
‫This case is adjourned
‫for four weeks.
697
00:42:52,520 --> 00:42:54,280
‫Where did you go?
‫What did you do that day?
698
00:42:54,840 --> 00:42:56,280
‫I want every little detail.
699
00:42:58,040 --> 00:42:59,360
‫So you started your day at...
700
00:43:03,240 --> 00:43:04,240
‫And at 2pm,
701
00:43:04,400 --> 00:43:06,360
‫you had your meeting with your boss.
702
00:43:08,000 --> 00:43:09,000
‫With?
703
00:43:11,000 --> 00:43:12,640
‫Ivan, Toby,
704
00:43:13,840 --> 00:43:14,880
‫Joanne.
705
00:43:16,520 --> 00:43:17,760
‫The meeting ended at...
706
00:43:18,360 --> 00:43:20,360
‫3pm? No. 3:30pm?
707
00:43:22,440 --> 00:43:24,536
‫Then you went straight
‫to another meeting with your client.
708
00:43:24,560 --> 00:43:25,560
‫By the name of?
709
00:43:27,200 --> 00:43:28,200
‫Henry Chung.
710
00:43:29,240 --> 00:43:30,400
‫Where did you meet Henry?
711
00:43:31,920 --> 00:43:33,400
‫Cafe Corner.
712
00:43:34,120 --> 00:43:35,280
‫The one on Wing Lok Street?
713
00:43:36,240 --> 00:43:37,240
‫Okay.
714
00:43:37,440 --> 00:43:39,240
‫So you were in Sheung Wan.
715
00:43:40,320 --> 00:43:41,480
‫Let's backtrack a little bit.
716
00:43:42,280 --> 00:43:43,480
‫How did you get to Sheung Wan?
717
00:43:45,600 --> 00:43:46,600
‫By MTR.
718
00:43:47,880 --> 00:43:50,560
‫How long was the walk
‫between the MTR and the cafe?
719
00:43:53,360 --> 00:43:54,440
‫Twenty minutes.
720
00:43:57,920 --> 00:43:59,560
‫The timeline doesn't
‫make sense at all.
721
00:43:59,640 --> 00:44:01,440
‫You were cheating,
‫so just admit it, you jerk!
722
00:44:11,560 --> 00:44:13,040
‫Excuse me, I'm...
723
00:44:13,120 --> 00:44:14,480
‫Mr. Kwan referred you, right?
724
00:44:15,320 --> 00:44:17,760
‫Ram... Ramaiah?
725
00:44:18,000 --> 00:44:19,120
‫You can just call me Ah Lam.
726
00:44:20,680 --> 00:44:21,880
‫Mr. Kwan is my mentor.
727
00:44:22,280 --> 00:44:23,280
‫He gave me instructions...
728
00:44:23,281 --> 00:44:25,240
‫to do my best
‫to help you no matter what.
729
00:44:26,000 --> 00:44:27,280
‫Because he said he believes you.
730
00:44:29,720 --> 00:44:31,760
‫I didn't realize Mr. Kwan
‫was such a good man.
731
00:44:32,560 --> 00:44:35,000
‫I've learned everything
‫from him. Don't worry.
732
00:44:35,680 --> 00:44:37,360
‫Actually, Mr. Kwan explained it,
733
00:44:37,440 --> 00:44:38,440
‫but I still don't
‫quite understand...
734
00:44:38,441 --> 00:44:39,921
‫why he can't continue
‫to represent me.
735
00:44:41,040 --> 00:44:42,760
‫Because in court,
736
00:44:42,840 --> 00:44:45,400
‫he already presented one version
‫of the story on your behalf.
737
00:44:46,360 --> 00:44:48,320
‫Now you're saying
‫that's not how it happened.
738
00:44:48,800 --> 00:44:50,880
‫If he were to stay
‫in the same court...
739
00:44:51,000 --> 00:44:53,240
‫and tell a completely different
‫version of the story,
740
00:44:53,960 --> 00:44:55,600
‫it wouldn't be good for a lawyer.
741
00:44:56,000 --> 00:44:57,520
‫It would affect
‫his professional image.
742
00:45:00,160 --> 00:45:01,440
‫So it's because it affects him.
743
00:45:03,040 --> 00:45:04,040
‫Let's not waste time.
744
00:45:04,720 --> 00:45:06,256
‫Why don't you tell me everything
‫from the beginning...
745
00:45:06,280 --> 00:45:07,440
‫about what happened that day?
746
00:45:08,080 --> 00:45:09,440
‫Try to be as detailed as possible.
