Chitchat Judge Ask Sinkie Lawyer: Why You Keeping Talking About Victim's Neh Neh?

[ginbitchy]

"So that is important and I want to show that if she is wearing a very low cut (top) with a very voluptuous breast protruding out, (of a) half cut (top), then of course... the higher the tendency that people might commit such an offence."
- Lawyer Edmund Wong Sin Yee

Isn't this as good as pleading guilty? He is effectively telling the court that his client had the requisite mens rea of the offence which, in his own words, "higher tendency that people might commit such an offence”。

5 mth jail term appears heavy for such a case. My hunch is that the DJ is sending a message out - get the right lawyer.

Read that the accused claimed trial. But the manner in which his lawyer went about 'defending' him suggests otherwise. More like a mitigation plea.

Criminal lawyers in S'pore are either frauds or clowns.

Screw the judge this would be allowed in US courts.

My questions:

What were you wearing that day?

What colour was your bra?

What is your breast/cup size?

Were you aroused/having an orgasm that day?

Nothing wrong in asking those questions, although he could have done so with more tact and finesse. But I know this chow ah beng lawyer. He likes to shoot his mouth off without thinking. But he's quite a nice chap.

Wow I'm very impressed with Wong. From a marketing mgr to convicts and still can be a lawyer. Not many people can achieve this in their life. He lead very meaningful life.
