美国芝加哥时间7月5日下午三点(北京时间7月6日凌晨四点),绑架中国女留学生章莹
颖的嫌疑犯布伦特·克里斯滕森(Brendt Christensen)第二次出庭,参与拘留听证会
(Detention Hearing),联邦法官艾瑞克·郎(Eric Long)拒绝了嫌犯辩护律师提出
的保释请求。
拘留听证会上,法官重申了疑罪从无的原则,他的判断原则有两个:一是嫌犯是否有潜
逃的可能;二是嫌疑人是否对个人或社区构成威胁。
就在刚刚,莹颖案嫌犯Brendt Christensen的律师Evan Bruno确证了打算对嫌犯进行无
罪辩护。他解释说在大陪审团没有批准起诉、初始听证没举行之际,提出无罪辩护是常
见做法。另外他也确证了他的父亲是香槟的副市长,是市议会的议员。他强调因为这个
案子香槟市并不是这个案子相关方,所以并不存在利益冲突。我刚刚也请教律师,因为
莹颖的案子是联邦法起诉,律师在市内工作影响不大。但如果是在州法院起诉,律师如
果在本地政治资源丰富,优势会很明显。
