The judge listened to the prosecutor and looked towards the defendant's seat, saying, "Defense attorney, do you have anything to say?"
The defense attorney stood up immediately and said, "Judge, I believe the evidence provided by the prosecution is circumstantial and speculative. They have no direct evidence to prove the defendant put the poison in the water.
Even if drugs were found in the water glass, it could have been put there by someone else, and it was only my client who handed the water to the victim! Also, the motive for murder you mentioned doesn't hold up at all! In this world, interrogating criminals often involves both carrot and stick; saying he has a motive for murder just because he threatened a criminal is too shallow! This reason is utterly ridiculous!"
The judge nodded after hearing this and looked at the prosecution again.
