American Entertainment 1982 Chapter 26

  Chapter 26 Wish him luck in prison

In the inquiry room of the Warwick Police Department, although the police did not impose any restrictions on himself, Hugh Spade felt uncomfortable, just like the feeling when he went camping in the forest as a teenager, always feeling that there were some wild animals around him spy on.

   At this time, the young lawyer who came to help him from the teachers union was sitting opposite him, flipping through the documents in his hand with a complicated expression:

"Mr. Hugh Spade, you are saying that you sold a total of eighty addictive prescription pills to the other party, including fifty Adralars and thirty sleeping pills, for ninety-six dollars. Twenty-five cents, right?"

  Hugh Spade nodded: "I've taken it many times, yes, eighty pills, at most it was admonishing conversations, and that's not poison."

"But what the high school student who bought it, Dennis Herbs, told the police was that he bought a total of 150 addictive prescription pills for 96 dollars and 25 cents, including 100 pills of Adelaide. Lal, fifty sleeping pills, and the police, with his cooperation, got those drugs from his locker at Lincoln High." The lawyer exhaled softly.

   "As I said, that high school student is lying." Hugh Spade said confidently.

The lawyer slowed down and said as clearly as possible: "He submitted the recording to the police. Although there is no specific amount, there is a transaction amount in it. The high school student named Dennis Herbers and the police are based on the illegal trade of prescription drugs. The understanding of the problem can prove that if it is only 80 pills, it will definitely not sell for the amount in the recording, unless the other party is a novice who has never bought similar medicines and was deceived for the first time. But Dennis Herbers is not a novice, he Playing rock music, asking and understanding also found that he had the habit of taking prescription drugs before, and he was not ignorant of this drug."

   "That guy is lying, I only have 80 pills, all of them add up to 80 pills, and it's not mine, I got it from..." Hugh Spade said to the lawyer angrily.

Seeing his irritable expression, the lawyer made a relaxing gesture and interrupted him: "This is what I will say next. You told the police that the drugs were obtained from Melonie Bean, an apartment in the Docklands of Warwick. Ms. Coney, when the police questioned Ms. Melonie-Bianconi, they got seventy Adralars and twenty sleeping pills from her. Contrary to your answer, she said that those drugs were Even when she clearly refused, you still insisted on giving it to her and asked her to help you sell it to students, but she always refused to sell it because of her own moral sense."

   "That **** is lying! That bitch's tenant is the real drug dealer!" Hugh Spade clenched his hands into fists and said emphatically, knocking on the table.

The lawyer turned a blind eye to Hugh Spade's anger, and just continued to say in a calm voice: "Sir, you have already told the police what you said, and the police are indeed wondering why Dennis Herbers wants to record the transaction process, But I am curious about another question, that is, why did the two of them lie to frame you? No reason has been found so far, at least the police have not found a reason why the two of them lied because of this trivial matter of buying and selling prescription drugs, so I will ask again here , I just hope you think about why they lie against you, maybe you can help you accuse them in turn.”

  Hugh Spade suddenly froze, staring at the young lawyer opposite!

  He felt as if he was caught in a dilemma!

If you want to explain that Melonie is lying and deceiving yourself, then you have to admit that you used photos to blackmail him. Although he is not a lawyer, he still understands basic legal knowledge. The woman Ni learned from her mouth that what she had done to her would have been irrelevant to buying and selling drugs at that time.

   Either admit that he sold drugs and end the matter here, or admit what he did to Melonie before and give the police a clear enough direction for the investigation, but in the end he backfired on himself.

I thought about it silently in my heart, of course, it is the best choice to admit to selling 150 pills of drugs, and quickly understand the trouble. If the quantity exceeds 100 pills, I will be registered by the Drug Enforcement Administration, put on the watch list, and be banned. The Food and Drug Administration regularly investigates. Although it is troublesome, strictly speaking, he is not a crime and does not need to be imprisoned.

   Another option, if you lose in court, is an actual criminal offense.

Before the police got to know Melonie deeply because the case was too light, Hugh Spade felt that he had to get out of here first, and before the woman Melonie told the police Before I did those things, find her, at least appease the woman first, and make sure that the other party doesn't say something that shouldn't be said to the police.

"I want to know, if I admit that those two guys are telling the truth, what will happen? Will I lose this job?" Hugh Spade tried to adjust his emotions, keeping his voice as calm as possible, asked the lawyer.

The lawyer shrugged: "If there are no other problems, the current situation will certainly not cause you to lose your current teaching job, but you will be put on the attention list, but don't worry, as long as you really don't do this kind of business in the future , then, nothing has changed in your life."

   "After I choose to admit it, when can I leave this ghostly place?"

"Are you sure you admit it? Also admit that you left the ninety prescription pills to Miss Melonie-Bianconi? I mean, if you admit it, you can leave after signing the police admonishment. After all, it's only one hundred and fifty A prescription drug."

  Hugh Spade made up his mind and said, "I admit it, let me get out of this ghost place as soon as possible."

"Come with me, sir." The young lawyer accompanied Hugh Spade to get up and leave the inquiry room, and then went to the sheriff's office to sign a letter of admonition, registering his personal information and acknowledging that his information would be handed over to the drug supervision and management by the police After the Bureau and the Drug Enforcement Administration, Hugh Spade was finally sent out of the police station.

  But the lawyer did not leave, but returned to the police station, knocked on the door of another waiting room, then pushed it open, and said to Andy Nelson and Melonie who were chatting on the sofa:

   "He admitted and just left."

"OK, it's our turn, Ms. Melonie Bianconi, I will accompany you to the police. With the help of a lawyer, you muster up the courage to tell the police the details of the illegal prescription drug trafficking case. For example, Hugh S. Paid used extremely bad coercive means, poor man, he will be brought back just as soon as he goes out." Andy Nelson got up from the sofa, smiled at Melonie and stretched out his hand: "Miss, you have an extremely keen eye. Meticulous brain, you know what I'm talking about. Of course, you don't need to admit it. I just want to praise you. With the power of the Holy Cross High School Parents Committee, you can save expensive expenses by dealing with a man who hurt you. Very beautiful Means, my only regret is that you are a teacher, and you have never thought of becoming a lawyer by relying on your mind and joining my firm, otherwise I promise, you will be my favorite student."

  Melonie stood up slowly, took a deep breath, shook hands with Andy Nelson, did not respond to each other, but asked, "What kind of punishment will he get?"

"Selling a large amount of addictive prescription drugs is something he admits himself, and he admits this, and everything behind can't be cleared up, such as forcing others to sell drugs for him to make a profit, and the means involve extortion and harming other people's bodies, etc. Wait, this law and order case will turn into a criminal case, and since the guy is poor and can't afford a lawyer, let the court assign a young public prosecutor to defend him, and the best lawyer in this state is standing in front of you right now , to fight for the abused minors at Holy Cross High School, I don't have much to say.” Andy Nelson adjusted his tie facing the reflection in the glass window, and finally said in a relaxed tone:

   "Don't consider digging into his other problems, but if you testify in court, I can give him a three-year sentence. You can wish him good luck in prison in advance."
