Chapter 273: Creepy
"Say no more. Fang Chaoyang waved his hand, and then announced: "The Dong'an City Intermediate People's Court is now here, and it is open to hear the case of the defendant Guo Wushuang who was prosecuted by the Dong'an City People's Procuratorate on suspicion of intentional homicide. The collegial panel hearing this case is composed of presiding judge Fang Chaoyang, judges Gao Yiwei and Mu Fan, and clerk Zhao Fangfang serves as the court recorder ......"
After a slight pause, Fang Chaoyang announced the names of the prosecutor and defender, as well as the units they belonged to, as well as the various procedural rights enjoyed by the parties.
"Defendant Guo Wushuang, have you heard the above rights clearly?" Fang Chaoyang asked.
"I heard it clearly, but I didn't understand it very well. Guo Wushuang said.
"Article 1: If you feel that we, the judges, may have some special relationship with this case, and that the trial is unfair, you can apply for a replacement. Fang Chaoyang explained.
"I didn't know each other before, I didn't apply for a replacement, you look quite pleasing to the eye, and you look like a good person at first glance. I remember that in the previous TV series, you played the teacher, a good official, and you were like you. Guo Wushuang babbled.
"Second, you can present new evidence and witnesses and apply for a new evaluation. Fang Chaoyang said.
"I'm in Hengshan Village, I don't know anyone, how can there be witnesses, I don't apply. What Guo Wushuang said was also true, she was once gifted to walk around, and there was only one neighbor who saw her, but it didn't attract enough attention from the neighbors.
"Third, if you feel that you have been wronged, or think that the prosecution is wrong, you can explain and defend yourself. Fang Chaoyang said patiently.
"I want to defend, I didn't kill anyone! I want to defend!"
"Not now, in the later stage of the court investigation, you can defend yourself. Fang Chaoyang said.
"Oh, I'll wait. ”
"Fourth, at the end of the trial, you can make a final statement, which is to seek leniency for yourself. Fang Chaoyang explained the rights enjoyed by the defendant as a whole.
"I understand!" Guo Wushuang nodded, feeling warm in his heart, this judge has a really good temper, and he has never reprimanded her since he came here.
"Defendant Guo Wushuang, have you applied for recusal?"
"No application!"
"Now the court investigation begins!" Fang Chaoyang knocked on the gavel and said, "First of all, the prosecutor will read out the indictment. ”
This is an extreme case with very bad means of murder, Guo Wushuang is both a murderer and a victim, and her experience is certainly sympathetic, but the fact of murder objectively exists, and in law, the right to life is above all else, and the procuratorate has to prosecute her.
Yuan Dan glanced at Tian Yunsu opposite, then at Fang Chaoyang and the others above, and finally looked at Guo Wushuang in the defendant's dock, her expression was very complicated, she slowly stood up, and slowly picked up the indictment, it seemed that this pile of paper had the weight of a thousand gold.
"On the evening of May 27 this year, a tragic case occurred in Hengshan Village, Xinhua Town, our city, where the defendant Guo Wushuang used a kitchen knife to hack the victim Zhou Changli to death and cut off his head. According to the results of the forensic autopsy, Zhou Changli's body had more than 300 knife marks, and Guo Wushuang's first knife slashed at the victim's neck carotid artery, causing him to lose too much blood and die. ”
Although Yuan Dan tried to use a gentle tone, just these episodes were enough to make people very frightened, even creepy, and shudder.
There have been police announcements and press releases, but because they were too bloody, the process of killing people was only brushed aside, but today is the first time that the specific process has been made public, and it can be seen that the faces of everyone present have become very ugly.
The woman in the dock seemed cowardly and talkative, and no one could connect her with an extremely cruel murderer.
At this time, Guo Wushuang's face was very calm, as if all this had nothing to do with her.
You can't look at the surface of everything, Guo Wushuang's psychology is actually very strong, this is everyone's first intuitive judgment of her at present.
The parents of the victim, Zhou Changli, heard the voice and witnessed the tragic condition of their son, and were so frightened that they fainted, because Hengshan Village was located in a remote area, the road was impassable, and the victim's mother had died on the way to the hospital. The victim's father, also on the second day of hospitalization, died of panic and excessive sadness, and the rescue was ineffective, and when he was dying, the police learned that the defendant was abducted and sold to Hengshan Village by traffickers ten years ago, but the purchase cost was 100,000 yuan, as a so-called daughter-in-law. Yuan Dan said.
There were sighs of embarrassment on the scene, and some pity was felt for the defendant Guo Wushuang, this tragedy is undoubtedly the result of the accumulation of emotions that have been inhumane for many years, and the evil consequences after the outbreak.
Many people are thinking about whether they would have made such a reckless and brutal act if they were Guo Wushuang and had lived in captivity for ten years.
Many villagers witnessed all this, and several bold ones took the defendant Guo Wushuang under control and called the police. During the police interrogation, Guo Wushuang did not admit the fact of murder, claiming that he had no memory, but the kitchen knife, that is, the tool of the crime, had Guo Wushuang's clear fingerprints on the handle, and according to the analysis of the location of the footprints at the scene of the crime, everything was done by Guo Wushuang, who took advantage of Zhou Changli's drunkenness to brutally kill him, and there was an act of dismembering the body. Yuan Dan said.
In the content of the next indictment, there is more detailed analysis, and all the evidence clearly points to Guo Wushuang, who is the murderer of Zhou Changli.
At the same time, Yuan Dan also emphasized that Guo Wushuang's refusal to admit guilt was regarded as a bad attitude in admitting guilt, and the prosecutor conducted a psychiatric evaluation on him according to the requirements of his family to prove that he had full capacity for normal human behavior.
"This is a tragedy, and the prosecution objectively determined that Guo Wushuang was abducted and trafficked, and then imprisoned, physically violated many times, and suffered inhuman torture for many years, with few interruptions. Although Zhou Changli, who was drunk that night, did not beat her, the accumulated emotions would also explode at a certain critical point, and killing was a stress reaction. The prosecution indicted the defendant Guo Wushuang for intentional homicide, which meets the characteristics of this crime, but considering the special nature of Guo Wushuang's experience, it sought a lenient sentence from the court, hoping that it would be eight years in prison. Yuan Dan finally concluded.
Seeking a lenient sentence is the last effort that the procuratorate can do, and it is also a great sympathy for Guo Wushuang and human care.
"Defendant Guo Wushuang, did you hear clearly the contents of the indictment read out by the prosecutor?" asked Fang Chaoyang.
"I heard it clearly, but I didn't kill Zhou Changli, I'm not afraid of squatting in prison, everywhere is better than the basement! At least, I can see the sun often. Guo Wushuang said.
