Chapter 093: The scale is not easy to grasp
"You're worried that someone will do something to him?" Shang Yong frowned.
"Don't be unguarded, some people will lose their official positions because of him, can you not be in a hurry?" Fang Chaoyang said.
"It makes sense, now is the critical moment, I will personally guard it, and no one can get close until Shang Zaijun is sent back to the detention center. Shang Yong ate a few bites of unsoaked instant noodles, hurried downstairs, and drove Fang Chaoyang's car away.
The next morning, Fang Chaoyang and two jurors sat in the conference room to review another homicide case prosecuted by the city procuratorate.
The whole case is not complicated, it happened in a well-off village, this summer, He Maolin, who was sitting at home drinking, suddenly saw his sister He Maoxian running into the yard with a cloak, crying and saying that he wanted a divorce.
My sister and brother-in-law don't have a good relationship, they often quarrel, and occasionally they do it, He Maolin has long been accustomed to it, and he persuaded his sister to want to open some. However, He Maoxian's attitude is very resolute, he must divorce, and he can't go on.
After a while, my brother-in-law Liu Zhu walked in with his hands behind his back and asked his daughter-in-law to hurry home and not be embarrassed here. He Maoxian just didn't leave, and shouted that he would never go back and would get a divorce immediately.
At this time, Liu Zhu suddenly took out the pig-killing knife that he was hiding and stabbed He Maoxian's chest.
He Maoxian suddenly fell to the ground, blood stained his clothes red, looking at this situation, He Maolin, as an elder brother, was completely crazy, rushed to Liu Zhu with a wine glass, and smashed his head with a slam.
The wine bottle was broken, Liu Zhu also fell to the ground, He Maolin immediately drove a tricycle and sent his sister to the hospital for rescue.
He Maoxian was out of danger, but Liu Zhu died in the courtyard, and He Maolin was arrested on suspicion of intentional homicide and prosecuted three months later.
There is a lot of controversy in this case, Liu Zhu is the first to commit murder, and He Maolin's actions are also to protect his sister and stop the occurrence of criminal acts.
"Comrade Mu Fan, what do you think of this case?" Fang Chaoyang asked.
"Prosecuting for intentional homicide is too much, at best, excessive defence. Mu Fan said.
"Dawei, what do you think?" Fang Chaoyang asked again.
"He Maolin was not using a murder weapon, but a beer bottle, and at that time, his sister He Maoxian was in a moment of extreme danger, and I think that legitimate defense can be considered. Gao Yiwei put forward a different opinion.
"I read that the case file said that He Maolin used a beer bottle to attack Liu Zhu, and the first blow had already made Liu Zhu fall to the ground unconscious, but he made up for it a few more times until the beer bottle was broken and Liu Zhu died. The procuratorate believes that He Maolin's initial behavior can be determined as legitimate defense, but after a few strokes, it was intentionally to kill Liu Zhu. Fang Chaoyang said.
"It sounds reasonable, but I think that under the circumstances at that time, He Maolin just wanted to stop Liu Zhu from harming his sister, and he wouldn't think so much. Gao Yiwei said.
"After a few hits, it did pass, of course, in this case, it is difficult to grasp the scale. Mu Fan said.
"Boss, what do you think?" asked Gao Yiwei.
"Although the facts of this case are simple, it is also a big test for our judges to accurately sentenc. Fang Chaoyang said, "The boundary between legitimate defense, excessive defense and intentional homicide is clearly stipulated in the law, but when it is actually applied, the scale is only a millimeter." Personally, I am inclined to Comrade Mu Fan's statement that He Maolin was overly defensive, but it still depends on the relevant evidence presented by the prosecution and the defense during the trial. ”
In the afternoon, Shang Yong personally drove to pick up Fang Chaoyang, and he made an appointment with Lei Fujuan again, and he wanted to investigate further.
Shang Yong looked tired, yawning profusely, and his eyes were bloodshot. Fang Chaoyang hurriedly took over the steering wheel and asked Shang Yong to sit in the back seat, he was really not suitable for driving in this state.
"Dayong, haven't you slept?" Fang Chaoyang asked.
"Aren't you afraid that something will happen to that bastard of Shang Zaijun, but fortunately, he was finally sent back to the detention center. Shang Yong said.
"Was everything ok last night?"
"You're right, it's not normal. When I went, in the middle of the night, there were two strangers standing at the corner of the floor of Shang Zaijun's ward, sneaky and very suspicious, I asked, they said that they were the patient's family, and then they disappeared. Shang Yong said.
"Who do you think could have been sent?"
"Alas, there is no evidence, and you can't guess, I'll squint for a while and call me at the place. While speaking, Shang Yong was already asleep and snoring.
is really a desperate San Lang, Fang Chaoyang was also a little distressed, afraid of waking him up, so he deliberately chose some relatively secluded streets for driving.
An hour later, the two met Lei Fujuan again in a secluded teahouse box. This place was chosen by her for the convenience of conversation and not to be disturbed.
Shang Yong drank two cups of tea in a row, and his spirit eased up, Lei Fujuan first expressed his apologies for yesterday's incident, and her husband was prejudiced against his younger brother Lei Fumin, and he always thought that he was the real murderer.
"Ms. Lei, we want to know, in your opinion, why did Lei Fumin take the initiative to confess his guilt without torture?" Shang Yong asked.
"He's mentally ill. ”
"Be specific. ”
Alas, he believed in a certain liar, believing that if he had received it for others, he would go to heaven and gain eternal life. is also forced by the daughter-in-law, and there is no hope in life. Lei Fujuan sighed and said, "I persuaded him, but he couldn't believe it, but he just wouldn't listen." ”
"We noticed that after the first-instance verdict, Lei Fumin agreed to appeal, why?" Fang Chaoyang asked.
"It was when I knelt down and begged him, and he reluctantly agreed, and when the retrial was held, he still took everything on himself, and there was obviously only one kitchen knife at home, but he said that there were two, and one was taken by him for self-defense, who needs two kitchen knives! Lei Fujuan said, a little excited.
"You are a respectable sister. Fang Chaoyang said sincerely.
"I won't hide it from you, I just can't get over this hurdle in my heart all these years, my brother is confused and his brain is broken, but the investigators can't believe anything, isn't this just a top bag?"
"I can understand your feelings, I also want to ask again, has there been any contact between Lei Fumin and the deceased Wu Lanfang before, and has there been any conflict?" Shang Yong asked.
"It's impossible not to know each other in the same village, but the two families live far away, and they don't have a good time, so they don't usually have much contact. Lei Fujuan said.
"We still need to sort out the evidence before we can tell you whether Lei Fumin was wrongly convicted. Shang Yong said.
"Alas, as long as I can prove that he didn't kill anyone, I can go to the grave of my parents. Lei Fujuan said.
"We also need to ask Lei Xiaomin, yes, changed his name to Fan Litao, do you have his contact information?" Shang Yong asked.
