"If Charles could turn back time, he would undoubtedly wish for his mother to be spared from domestic violence and to have been there with him as he grew up.

"Imagine a nine-year-old boy witnessing his mother's death. How would he spend the next ten years of his life? What gave him the strength to continue on? "After leaving home, his father never tried to find him. Charles had to scavenge for garbage and work odd Jobs to support himself. He had no friends, teachers, or classmates. There was no one for him to talk to.
"Your Honor, while I'm unable to provide a formal diagnosis of Charles' mental state, I trust that everyone. present is capable of evaluating whether he is psychologically well.
"Recently, I visited Charles' hometown and gathered testimonies from his neighbors regarding past events and their opinions on Charles. Your Honor, we should listen to what they have to say. If necessary, I can make arrangements for them to testify in person." After hearing Naomi's heartfelt plea, the judge said, "I agree to the defense's request to present the testimonies." Upon receiving the judge's approval, Naomi glanced at Sally, who then proceeded to play the recordings.
"I was there when it happened, It was impossible to stop the three Danson brothers. They beat the person to death right in front of us. It was such a horrifying sight. The child was crying nearby, clinging to his father and pleading for him to stop the beating. However, the father kicked his child about six feet away." "We tried to intervene, but the Danson brothers behaved like hooligans! They started to beat us instead and scolded us for meddling in their affairs. They said that wives were meant for beating. Otherwise, what was the point of marrying them?" "Charles was such a good boy! He was obedient and studious from a young age. His mother was an honest, hardworking, and quiet person too. After his mother's death, his scoundrel father locked him up in a cage every day. He forbade Charles to go to school and refused to let his grandparents see him.
