?Chapter 1068: Chapter 1068: Always Cared_1 Chapter 1068: Chapter 1068: Always Cared_1 Purple Summers looked at the members of the jury.

“If we delve deeper, Oscar Smith’s death… actually stemmed from this impetuous society. Some people have lost everything in the stock market, others have gone bankrupt and committed suicide after dealing with futures — such incidents are not uncommon in our society, are they?

Have we sued the stock market for compensating losses? Have we claimed damages from futures companies? We haven’t, because the courtroom is not the place to cure societal illnesses. It only needs to consider one thing —
Should Summers Group be held responsible for Oscar Smith’s suicide?

At the entrance of every casino in Pearlpoint City hangs a sign, which reads, ‘There’s no certainty in gambling, moderate bets for a pleasant mood, gamble with spare money, and maintain the nature of entertainment.’
The perils of gambling have never been about gambling itself, but rather when gamblers become addicted, losing control over their desires. Societal harm only occurs when a gambler’s losses exceed their financial capacity. If you agree with this view, you cannot deem Summers Group guilty simply for operating a casino, nor can you deem it guilty simply for making substantial profits.

This case is not about judging the wealth and power of Summers Group but about the relationship of responsibility. Oscar Smith’s suicide was a spontaneous and voluntary act, unrelated to the casino, unrelated to Summers Group. I hope you will consider this issue seriously after you return to the jury room.”

After finishing, Purple Summers let out a gentle breath.
