The Bloody Evidence | 铁证如山

English Original

After three days of trial, the accused man stood up and approached the judge's bench.

"Your Honor, I would like to change my plea from 'innocent' to 'guilty'."

The judge angrily banged his fist on the desk. "If you're guilty, why didn't you say so in the first place and save this court a lot of time and trouble?" he demanded.

The man looked up wide-eyed and stated, "Well, when the trial started I thought I was innocent, but that was before I heard all the bloody evidence against me."


中文翻译

经过三天的审判,被告男子站起身,走向法官席。

“法官大人,我想将我的抗辩从‘无罪’改为‘有罪’。”

法官愤怒地一拳砸在桌子上,质问道:“如果你有罪,为什么不一开始就说出来,为法庭节省大量时间和麻烦?”

男子睁大眼睛抬起头,说道:“嗯,审判开始时我以为自己是无辜的,但那是在我听到所有对我不利的该死的证据之前。”
