                       In this talk, I will show how our knowledge and belief are changed
                       by agent communication. We apply dynamic epistemic logic to subtle
                       differences of the result of agent communication, e.g., what is informed,
                       what is known to each other, and what is aware of for each agent. En
                       route, we discuss the reliability of information source, including the
                       notion of communication channel. Thereafter, we apply the idea to
                       analyze several legal cases, and try to explain the relation between the
                       suspect’s intention, the result, and his/her predictability of causality
                       in them.
