Verdict Next Week
English

The defendant pleaded not guilty, but the police collected enough evidence. The judge will pronounce the verdict tomorrow. Will she be guilty? The defense says no. They tell the court, "The evidence is not enough." But the witness has identified her. Did she testify? No, she didn’t. Why? She is afraid. The judge must decide: Is the evidence true? If she is guilty, the sentence will be severe. She will go to prison. The jury has not reached a verdict yet. Are they in doubt? Time will tell.
Guilty verdict and prison sentence
English
The judge read the verdict. "Guilty," she said. The court set bail at $10,000, but he couldn’t pay. His family posted bail for him. Now he must serve time in prison. The sentence was two years. His lawyer said, "We will appeal this decision." The prison is overcrowded, but he has to go. If he violates probation, he will go back. His family asked, "Can he get parole soon?" The judge said, "No, he must serve his full sentence first." She placed him on probation after prison. They asked, "Does he have to follow strict conditions?" The judge replied, "Yes, or his parole will be denied."
