On February 9, local time, after five absences, the man involved in the case, Liren Chen, attended the arraignment for the first time, and the next time he attended was at 13:35 local time on April 19. At this arraignment, Chen wore an item similar to a helmet on his head, which did not appear in the range of the live broadcast camera, and the prosecutor said that the next time he attended, he would have the opportunity to confirm whether the man pleaded guilty or not, and started the follow-up proceedings.
The prosecution was interviewed after the arraignment.
Nandu previously reported that in the early morning of January 20, Beijing time, the staff of the judicial hall of the Santa Clara County Superior Court in California told Nandu reporters that Liren Chen, a Chinese man accused of being involved in the "** suicide" case, was not killed, and is currently confirmed to be indicted for ** felony.
The Santa Clara County District Attorney's Office provided the indictment against Liren Chen to Southern Metropolis reporters. **The statement of fact shows that there was a large amount of blood at the scene of the crime, but no obvious murder weapon was found to cause blunt force injuries to the top of the victim's head, and that Liren Chen "did not appear to have any lacerations that would have caused bleeding." Therefore, the ** officer who made the statement of facts of the case made a judgment, "Based on my training and experience, I believe that Liren Chen was wearing sandals at the time, standing or squatting next to the victim and repeatedly hitting her on the head with his hand".

After five arraignments in absentia on January 18, 19, 24, 26 and February 5 local time, on February 7, a reporter from Nandu learned from the Santa Clara County Department of Corrections in California, the United States, that Liren Chen has been discharged from the hospital for the second time, and the current location is the "North Master Detention Center".
On February 9, local time, Liren Chen attended the arraignment for the first time. At the scene, it was disclosed that Liren Chen was not sitting in the defendant's seat, he was standing the whole time, wearing a white, helmet-like object on his head, and did not appear in the range of the live broadcast camera. In addition, he received translation services from the Tribunal.
After the arraignment, the prosecutor said in an interview with ** that the next time he attended, he would have the opportunity to confirm whether the man involved in the case pleaded guilty or not, and start the follow-up proceedings.
Previously, a criminal lawyer in California and federal courts explained to reporters in Nandu that California law stipulates that when arraignment, the judge will mainly confirm two issues: whether the defendant pleads guilty, and whether and how much bail is set.
Li Yuan, an expert in criminal practice in the United States and a criminal trial lawyer in California and federal courts, told reporters from Nandu that there are generally two responses to the first question: admitting guilt and not admitting guilt, and the vast majority of cases start the entire criminal procedure process by not admitting guilt.
