Chapter 021: Early Exit
"The application is invalid!" Fang Chaoyang said in a deep voice.
"Why!" Tan Aijing's voice rose.
"I asked just now, and you said you wouldn't apply. ”
"I just remembered that the presiding judge of the first instance was Judge Gao's teacher. ”
"That doesn't mean anything. ”
"Hmph, teacher-student relationship, he will definitely support the teacher's verdict. Tan Aijing has a heartbeat.
"It's all in the same system, and when we have a meeting, we often meet, don't we have to avoid it?" Fang Chaoyang said unhappily.
"When, of course!" Tan Aijing said.
There was a situation of talking to each other on the field, some of them thought that Tan Aijing was arguing with strong words, and some thought that it was instructed by someone, Tan Aijing, an ordinary woman, would not know so much about the situation.
Fang Chaoyang knocked on the gavel, was silent, and then said, "Judge Gao, let's read it out!"
Gao Yiwei nodded and read out the first-instance verdict aloud, strictly speaking, this verdict was not formal enough, and the judge used words such as inhumane and outrageous with some emotion.
But it is understandable that judges are also human beings and have children, and it is sometimes difficult to control their inner emotions in the face of such crimes.
After reading out, Fang Chaoyang said: "Next, the appellant Tan Aijing will state the reasons for the appeal. ”
"I think that the sentence of eight years for intentional injury is too heavy, and I was just impulsive, and my brain was not good at that time. Besides, I didn't beat the child to death!" Tan Aijing said.
"Phew, you wicked woman, do you still want to beat the child to death?" stood up in the auditorium, a middle-aged man stood up and roared loudly.
It was the child's father, Fang Chaoyang said in a deep voice: "Sit down!"
The child's father sat down, pounded his head vigorously, and cried in a low voice, feeling great regret in his heart.
"The defence counsel presented the grounds of appeal. Fang Chaoyang said.
Yan Ze got up and bowed to the court, then puffed up his chest and said in a loud voice: "Respected presiding judge and jurors, the appellant Tan Aijing is also a victim in this case, and this must be one of the factors taken into account. Eight years for intentional injury is too heavy and should be treated as abuse. ”
There was an uproar on the field, everyone had not considered this crime, but as a senior judge, Fang Chaoyang knew very well that the sentencing scales of the two were very different.
The maximum sentence for the crime of abuse is seven years, and more often than three years, while the crime of intentional injury, which is more serious in nature, can be sentenced to life.
"Appellant Tan Aijing, what objections do you have to the facts and charges found in the first-instance verdict?" Fang Chaoyang asked again.
"In my opinion, the first-instance judgment has no basis in law, and is completely arbitrary judgment of the judge, which is contrary to the fairness and justice of the law. Tan Aijing raised her voice, and then said: "First, the verdict found that I have been dissatisfied with Xiaomei for a long time, in fact, we ate at the same table, and I also tutored her homework, and second, ......"
Tan Aijing gushed endlessly, saying that she could have more than ten minutes, but she didn't use the manuscript, and she didn't know how long she had been reciting for this. Speaking of excitement, she actually shed tears, in short, it is not easy to take care of children, when any parent has impulses, because she is a stepmother, the world has become extremely sensitive, and the judgment is unfair.
Fang Chaoyang couldn't help but look at lawyer Yan Ze, he really put a lot of effort into winning the appeal this time. Tan Aijing doesn't have such a good language organization, it must have been taught by Yan Ze.
wants to overturn the case for a sad and vicious stepmother and make a name for herself in the legal profession, even at the cost of being scolded by netizens, Yan Ze's approach made Fang Chaoyang feel disdainful.
Taking a deep breath, Fang Chaoyang suppressed the emotions in his heart, and he warned himself that as a people's judge, he must be based on facts and the law as the criterion, and cannot have personal feelings.
Next, I would like to ask the procurator to question the appellant about the facts ascertained in the "First Instance Judgment". ”
Sun Xiaoli stood up and said coldly: "Appellant Tan Aijing, have you been dissatisfied in the process of taking care of Xiaomei?"
"No, I don't have children yet, I like children, I treat this child as if I was my own. Just ask, which mother has never hit her child, why did I make a big mistake when I moved a few times?" Tan Aijing burst into tears on the spot.
"So, are you planning to get pregnant?"
"Men are away from home all year round and have no plans. ”
She lied, and when she called, she mentioned it. The child's father got up from the auditorium and shouted.
"Sit down!" Fang Chaoyang said in a deep voice, "Next time, speak and exit the courtroom." ”
"Wicked woman, my child!" the man choked with tears in his eyes.
It is not difficult to hear that Tan Aijing tried to overturn her previous confession and create an atmosphere of happiness between mother and daughter, and the defender Yan Ze's face was a little ugly, and Tan Aijing was out of control.
If you like children and have always been good to them, then the crime of abuse is not involved, because this crime has to be long-term and subjectively malicious, and can only be debated on the severity of the consequences of the crime of intentional injury.
Of course, this is also Yan Ze's wishful thinking. The appellant, Tan Aijing, would rather accept the crime of intentional injury than the infamy of ill-treatment.
It was the turn of the defender Yan Ze to ask Tan Aijing questions, although he tried his best to guide him, but Tan Aijing didn't seem to buy it, and she had a good relationship with the child before.
"The case could not be argued, and I asked to leave the court early. Yan Ze was completely annoyed, got up and walked out.
There was another uproar on the field, many people did not know what was happening, and the defender did not care.
"You can leave without affecting the trial of this case, and the court will notify the Department of Justice and request that you be barred from entering the courtroom for a certain period of time. Fang Chaoyang said coldly.
"Fang Chaoyang, don't go too far. Yan Ze turned his head and glared angrily.
"As a lawyer, you're contempting court!"
"I ...... Alas......" Yan Ze slapped himself sharply, and then strode out.
"Appellant Tan Aijing, the defender left for some reason, and this court allows you to defend yourself. "Fang Chaoyang's face does not change color.
"Don't need him!" Tan Aijing was still very stubborn, and she still didn't understand why Yan Ze suddenly turned his face.
Next, the focus of the case focused on Xiaomei's injury, Tan Aijing insisted that it was a minor injury, the bone was broken, and it could be connected, and the child grew up quickly, and it would not affect his future life.
As for the cutaneous trauma, it should have been healed by now.
The prosecutor refuted this one by one, Xiaomei's injuries were very serious, her hands were almost all broken, and for a considerable period of time, she could not use her hands, and her lower leg and forearm were also broken, with more than 30 fractures.
In addition, it was confirmed that he was seriously disabled after being evaluated by the relevant authorities.
Speaking of excitement, prosecutor Sun Xiaoli still used words with emotional bias such as annihilating humanity and losing conscience.
"Inspector, be careful with your words. Fang Chaoyang couldn't help but remind.
"Presiding Judge, I'm sorry, my daughter is also eight years old, what a lovely age, and the behavior of appellant Tan Aijing is unbearable for every mother. Tears oozed from Sun Xiaoli's eyes.
In the auditorium, there was silence, and Sun Xiaoli's words resonated, and many women cried.
The trial was broadcast live publicly, and Fang Chaoyang did not know that at this moment, the number of netizens watching the live broadcast on the Internet has reached as many as one million.
