Chapter 2316
Since Ma Lan was arrested, no one had given her a good face.
The injury and fear had a huge negative impact on her body and mind.
Now seeing James White speaking to her so respectfully, she was so excited that she cried.
She cried and said extremely aggrieved, "They not only hit me and scolded me, but also threatened me and intimidated me... I told them many times that I was deceived and I didn't know what was in the suitcase at all, but they were still very impatient with me, as if I were a criminal... It's really too much..."
The branch chief on the side heard this, his expression froze, and he scolded angrily, "You bastards! Why didn't you send Ms. Ma to the hospital in time?! Why did you interrogate her while knowing that Ms. Ma was injured?! In addition, how did Ms. Ma's injury happen? Who did it? Stand out and explain clearly!"
Everyone was so nervous that they didn't know how to answer, so they could only look at Jimmy Wayne on the side.
Jimmy Wayne saw this and could only walk up in a panic, stammering, "Chief... it... it was me who accidentally broke Ms. Ma's rib... she was resisting at the time, and I was also performing the task..."
James White said sternly at this time, "You look very strong, and my client is just a weak old lady. Your weight is at least double that of my client. I believe that if you just want to subdue my client, it is absolutely easy, and there is no need to break my client's rib at all!"
Jimmy Wayne's cold sweat flowed down his cheeks instantly. Facing James White's questioning, he didn't know how to quibble for himself at all.
James White didn't look at him at this time, but looked at the branch chief on the side and said coldly, "Before you submit the evidence to my assistant, I hope you can suspend this person for investigation first. My client has suffered such a great injury and has also encountered various unequal treatments including racial discrimination. You should at least show some attitude first, otherwise, I will directly hand this matter to the media for preheating and fermentation. By then, you will definitely be more passive."
When the branch chief heard this, he knew that if Jimmy Wayne was not thrown out today, James White would not give up.
And even if Jimmy Wayne was thrown out as a scapegoat, with James White's consistent style of doing things, this matter could not be over, and it could only be slightly buffered at most.
However, as long as there is a buffer, there is some benefit.
So, he could only turn around, look at the terrified Jimmy Wayne on the side, and say coldly, "Wayne, hand over your police ID and service gun, suspend your duties and accept the investigation first. Whether you can return to your original position or whether you have to face legal sanctions will wait until the investigation results come out!"
Jimmy Wayne knew that he was doomed today, so he could only nod helplessly, take off his ID and gun, and then look at Ma Lan, begging, "Ms. Ma, just now I was just anxious, I really didn't mean to hurt you, I hope you can forgive me this time."
Before Ma Lan could speak, James White on the side said coldly, "Within three seconds, if you don't disappear from my sight, I will immediately arrange for other colleagues to start suing you!"
Jimmy Wayne was scared pale and could only sneak away from the police station.
After Jimmy Wayne left, the branch chief looked at James White with a flattering face and said, "Mr. White, I will arrange for someone to send Ms. Ma to the hospital. I will communicate with my superiors about the media and let them temporarily not notify the media to come. We will maintain silence to the media for this matter for now. You also know that there are too many things about racial discrimination in American society now, and various protests have been continuing. In this case, let's not add chaos to the big environment, what do you think?"
James White looked at the branch chief and said lightly, "If you can give my client enough humanitarian treatment, I can temporarily not notify the media for this matter, but I also reserve the right to notify the media."
When the branch chief heard this, he finally breathed a sigh of relief and said hurriedly, "Since this is the case, let's arrange for Ms. Ma to go to the hospital immediately!"
James White said expressionlessly, "There is no need for you to arrange for medical treatment. The hospital you arranged is not worthy of Ms. Ma's distinguished status. I will arrange for Ms. Ma to go to the best private hospital in New York for treatment."
The branch chief said awkwardly, "Mr. White, we don't have such a high budget to arrange for suspects to go to top private hospitals for treatment..."
James White sneered disdainfully and said lightly, "All expenses for Ms. Ma's medical treatment don't need you to worry about, they are all borne by my client."
The branch chief was nervous and thought to himself, "According to what Mad Dog White said, he should be entrusted by someone to help Ma Lan clear her name, and his client is undoubtedly a wealthy tycoon. Could it be that there is really a very powerful big shot behind this Ma Lan?"
Thinking of this, he was even more uneasy and could only smile and say, "Mr. White, according to the regulations, even if you arrange for Ms. Ma to go to other hospitals for treatment, we must send police personnel to accompany her. You also know that Ms. Ma is still a criminal suspect in the legal sense, and we cannot let her out of our sight."
James White said coldly, "I don't need you to remind me of such basic legal common sense. On the contrary, you police personnel, as defenders of legal fairness and justice, publicly despise the provisions of the law and the sanctity of human rights, which is extremely disappointing!"
The branch chief's face was red and white, and he said awkwardly, "Mr. White's criticism is very correct. I will definitely urge my subordinates to change these bad habits!"
James White didn't pay attention to him anymore, but looked at Ma Lan and said softly in Chinese, "Ms. Ma, I'm sorry, I'm late, I've wronged you!"
Ma Lan hadn't been given a good face since she was arrested.
The injury and fear had a huge negative impact on her body and mind.
Now seeing James White speaking to her so respectfully, she was so excited that she cried.
She cried and said extremely aggrieved, "They not only hit me and scolded me, but also threatened me and intimidated me... I told them many times that I was deceived and I didn't know what was in the suitcase at all, but they were still very impatient with me, as if I were a criminal... It's really too much..."
James White continued, "By the way, Ms. Ma, after you arrive at the hospital, your personal freedom may be restricted to the ward, because the police will follow us, and I hope you don't mind."
Ma Lan said without hesitation, "I don't mind, of course I don't mind! As long as I don't stay in this kind of place, I can do anything!"
