Chapter 495 Appeal Sought

"The defendant will now make his closing statement. Defendant Zhou Fu, stand up and try to be as brief as possible. Fang Chaoyang said.

Zhou Fu slowly got up, looked around, blinked his eyes a few times, squeezed out two tears, and said: "First of all, I want to apologize to Meihua, although she can't hear it, I'm sorry, it was my impulse to let her leave this world." I'm an adult, and no matter how much she seduces, I shouldn't touch her. Secondly, I would like to apologize to Mr. and Mrs. Shi Yongguang, they are very sad to lose their daughter, and I am willing to compensate. Finally, I want to apologize to my wife Gao Erwei, I ruined the family, I hope she can take care of the children, I'm sorry. ”

After saying this, Zhou Fu was silent for a long time, and Fang Chaoyang asked, "Defendant, have you finished speaking?"

"Say, when you're done, ask the court for leniency. When Zhou Fu spoke, he did not look at the court, but looked at Shi Yongguang and his wife in the audience.

"Judge, please let Director Zhou go, he is a first-time offender. Shi Yongguang suddenly stood up and said loudly.

"Sit down, and don't make noise. Fang Chaoyang said with a cold face.

At this moment, Shi Yongguang's wife also stood up, "The babies are dead, don't take other people's lives, let go of Director Zhou!"

"You guys are really tolerant and generous!" Fang Chaoyang said coldly.

"There is a saying, when is the time for retribution, we ......" Shi Yongguang remembered a word, but later the language did not know how to organize.

"Thank you! Thank you!" Zhou Fu nodded, and there was no trace of pride in his gratitude.

"Kick both of them out of the courtroom. Fang Chaoyang said.

"Judge, you can't ......" Shi Yongguang panicked, the bailiff stepped forward and unceremoniously took the two away from the scene, and the two walked out, still shouting to let go of Director Zhou.

On Zhou Fu's forehead, beads of sweat the size of beans suddenly appeared, and he felt that something was wrong, and his body couldn't support it, so he sat on the chair all of a sudden.

"The evidence presented in court shall be handed over to the court after the adjournment. The collegial panel deliberated and opened 10 minutes later to announce the verdict. Take the defendant Zhou Fu down. Fang Chaoyang knocked down the gavel heavily, and then got up to leave.

Back in the small conference room at the back, Fang Chaoyang's face was gloomy, he was still very angry, Zhou Fu was something, he had a few stinky money, and he wanted to escape the punishment of the law. Xu Wei was so angry that she slammed the table with her fist a few times, angrily reprimanded Zhou Fu for still not repenting in his final statement, and insisted that Shi Meihua seduced him first, and was still using the compensation money to ask Shi Yongguang and his wife to help him speak.

"I think that Zhou Fu must be severely sentenced, otherwise, in many cases in the future, criminal suspects will think that as long as they do a good job of the victim's family, they can buy their lives with money. Gao Yiwei changed his attitude and was also very angry.

"I also agree with the severity of the sentence, and in law, there is no problem. Xu Wei said.

"Some people will say that we are unkind. Fang Chaoyang reminded.

"Whatever they say, as a law enforcer, you have to keep an eye on the pressure. ”

"Well, I agree with you. Fang Chaoyang nodded.

Ten minutes came quickly, but for some people at the trial scene, it seemed so long, Gao Erwei couldn't sit still at all, got up and sat down again and again, and kept rubbing his face, Yan Ze's face was not good-looking, he felt the displeasure of the collegial panel judge, and secretly complained about Zhou Fu, and in the final statement, he did not grasp the main point.

"All stand and invite the presiding judge and jurors into the courtroom. Zhao Fangfang said loudly.

Everyone got up immediately, Fang Chaoyang and the three of them re-walked onto the judge's seat, stood firmly, and after looking around, Fang Chaoyang knocked down the gavel and said at the same time: "Please sit down and continue the court." ”

"Defendant Zhou Fu was brought to court. ”

Zhou Fu was brought to the courtroom, his steps staggered, his legs were trembling all the time, and he stood very reluctantly in the defendant's seat, with his head down and not daring to look at the judge's seat.

"Through the court trial just now, this court fully heard the defendant Zhou Fu's confession, defense, and final statement, the prosecutor read out to the court and presented relevant evidentiary materials, and asked the witnesses to appear in court to testify in court, and the prosecution and defense debated the evidence, and fully expounded their respective argumentative opinions during the courtroom debate stage. After deliberation, the collegial panel found that the testimony of the witnesses in court and the relevant evidentiary materials presented by the public prosecutor in court were lawful in form and from each other's contents, and could be used as the basis for a verdict. Fang Chaoyang said in a deep voice.

"All stand up!" Zhao Fangfang said in a loud voice.

Everyone stood up again, Fang Chaoyang announced the verdict of the trial, according to the relevant legal provisions, the defendant Zhou Fu's criminal behavior was extremely heinous, and his methods were extremely cruel, and he was sentenced to three years for the crime of indecency, eight years for arson, and sentenced to death for intentional homicide. The total execution was the death penalty, and a fine of 500,000 yuan was imposed at the same time.

Zhou Fu completely collapsed on the chair, the bailiff hurriedly stepped forward to pull him up and stand up, and Gao Erwei in the back row shouted that he was not convinced, and he must appeal.

"This judgment is oral, and the judgment will be served within five days. If they are not satisfied with this judgment, they may appeal through this court or directly to the High People's Court within 10 days from the day after receiving the judgment. If the appeal is made in writing, one original and four copies of the appeal petition shall be submitted. Fang Chaoyang said.

"Defendant Zhou Fu, did you hear clearly?"

"Hear me clearly, I, I'm going to appeal. Zhou Fu said in a trembling voice.

"Now the court is closed and the defendant Zhou Fu is taken out of the courtroom. Fang Chaoyang knocked down the gavel and left the courtroom with Gao Yiwei and Xu Wei.

When Fang Chaoyang returned to the office, it was already past five o'clock, and it was time to get off work.

turned on the mobile phone, there was a missed call on it, the number was Hai Xiaozhou's office, he lit a cigarette, smoked relaxedly, and dialed Hai Xiaozhou's mobile phone.

"Xiaozhou, the court is going on today, and the mobile phone is turned off. Fang Chaoyang explained.

"I forgot, how was Zhou Fu's case decided?" Hai Xiaozhou asked.

"Death penalty!"

"The prosecutor's psychological expectation is that the maximum sentence is life imprisonment, which is an unexpected surprise. Hai Xiaozhou said happily.

Zhou Fu didn't have much repentance, and until the end, he still poured dirty water on the disabled girl's body. Moreover, the face of the victim's family is really unacceptable, and they just want to get more compensation for the murder of their daughter, lest the victim die. Fang Chaoyang said.

"Parents can do this, it's also speechless, they will definitely seek an appeal, right?" said Hai Xiaozhou.

"I appealed in court, and casually, the criminal division of the Intermediate People's Court sentenced it like this, and legally, I couldn't find the error of the judgment. Fang Chaoyang said confidently.

"Haha, the manly atmosphere, you can feel it from such a distance, it's too strong. Hai Xiaozhou joked.

"Xiaozhou, what are you looking for me?" Fang Chaoyang asked.
