Your honor, first, let me express my sincere sorrow for the victim. But as Chen Yao's defense attorney, I do not agree with the prosecution's criminal charges against Chen Yao. I will prove that Chen Yao not only did not have the time to commit the crime, but also that she did not have a motive for murder. Additionally, during the course of the investigation, the police did not thoroughly investigate other suspects. They wrapped up the case in a sloppy way, which was extremely unfair to my client.
