Chapter 314: Death-free deal

Andrei's confession makes the case even more confusing. According to Andre, he contacted a very famous assassin in Southeast Asia named Black Man. The black of the black man, not because he wears black, but because he has black skin, he is from Sri Lanka. The theory of chivalry belongs to the folk story, Sri Lanka is a very poor country, hatred of the rich is the favorite topic of discussion among the people at the bottom, of course, the black man is not an assassin in order to become a hero, he is purely for money, his target is naturally rich people, so he was hung up in the name of chivalry.

Andre contacted the Black Man through a friend in Sri Lanka, and the Black Man and Andre contacted him via email, and finally finalized the deal for a million.

After Dongfang gave Sri Lanka a few million, the Black Man was sent to Dongtang. Black Man said that he has been in the hospital for the past three months. Most of his assassination targets were powerful people, which also led to his burning of himself. After he was caught, the enemy did not kill him, but cut off his limbs, gouged out his eyes, and then gave the hospital a sum of money, and he could earn a day's money from the hospital if he lived.

The police were stunned when they received the black man at the airport, this could not be an assassin. Sri Lanka also confirmed that what the Black Man said was true.

On the other hand, AndrΓ© cursed and swore that he was in contact with the Black Hero.

This presents two possibilities, one is that Andrei lied. The second possibility is that if Andre didn't lie, then someone intercepted Andrei's email and pretended to be a black man to trade with Andre. Then this person contacted Zhang Ziqiao again and bought Zhang Ziqiao to go to the Eastern Tang Dynasty as an assassin.

Andre also confessed that he was instructed by a person named Bai Ya, who was Bai Menglou's adopted daughter and the little housekeeper in the inner courtyard of Oriental Villa. Bai Ya seems to have been mentally prepared not to answer all the questions of the police after being detained. Ling Hulan, the head defense lawyer of his lawyer's team, negotiated with the prosecution and pleaded guilty in exchange for a deal to avoid death.

As a result, the prosecution held four meetings, and the agreement faction believed that Bai Ya was not a person, and there was no need to kill her, and there was currently a lack of ironclad evidence. After agreeing to Bai Ya's request, you can connect Zhang Ziqiao. The focus is on Zhang Ziqiao, who has dozens of lives on his body. The opposing party argued that Bai Ya's behavior led to the death of the police officer in the line of duty and that the transaction could not be accepted.

It seems that there are two factions, but in fact there is one faction, and the core focus is whether Bai Ya can be convicted. The agreeers are actually pessimistic, while the oppositionists are optimists.

At this time, Wang Hu suddenly changed his confession, saying that he would only frame Bai Menglou if he was threatened. Someone contacted Li Mo, claiming to be from the Grand Alliance, saying that they were threatening Wang Hu. The reason is related to a traffic accident involving Wang Hu's wife last year.

Last year, Wang Hu's wife was involved in a traffic accident near Xizhen at night, when a man in his forties collided with a motorcycle and a car, resulting in the man's death. The police investigated the scene and believed that the man was drunk driving, and judging from the impact marks and damage to the car, the motorcycle was moving very fast. In the end, the police determined that Wang Hu's wife was 20% responsible and did not pursue criminal responsibility.

The contacts in the big league refused to provide evidence against Wang Hu's wife, and they gave the contents of the email with Wang Hu, which had a clear time.

Wang Hu's case was quickly tried, due to the retraction of the confession of the only important witness Wang Hu, Bai Menglou was acquitted, Wang Hu is a felony in the crime of intentional injury, and because of obstruction of judicial investigation and other reasons, Wang Hu was finally sentenced to seven years in prison, Wang Hu said in court that he would not appeal and obey the verdict.

……

Cao Yun only sighed about this, Wang Hu is a chess piece, a very important chess piece, and a worthless chess piece. He was saddled with all the charges. Of course not, there are seven years in his life, let alone seven years in his prime. The rivers and lakes are the rivers and lakes, since you eat this bowl of rice, sometimes you can't refuse if you don't want to.

Wang Hu made a mistake and helped Bai Menglou deal with some gray incidents for money, resulting in his value as a chess piece.

Wang Hu made two mistakes, in order to protect his wife, he opposed the Lord and helped the big league.

Wang Hu made three mistakes and had no value. The reconciliation between the major leagues and the East requires a back-to-back, worthless Wang Hu is naturally the best choice.

Little people are sometimes so helpless.

Did the Grand Alliance and Dongfang really reconcile? Cao Yun thought to himself that if he were Dongfang, he would definitely take revenge. Lao Tzu is rich, Lao Tzu has hatred, Lao Tzu is dying, the three basic conditions are valid, and it is impossible to say that he does not seek revenge. So how will you seek revenge?

Lu Yihang told Cao Yun the answer, Lu Yihang took his mobile phone and sat on the chair next to Cao Yun in the backyard, and said while looking at his mobile phone: "The national criminal system officially includes the Grand Alliance in the international criminal gang organization. ”

"National punishment?" Cao Yun asked rhetorically, what is the use of this?

Lu Yihang replied: "That's amazing." ”

"Where's the power?"

Lu Yihang said: "Any buying, selling, trading, and any behavior of helping members of the major alliance is suspected of violating the law." For example, lawyer Cao, if you appear in the Flame Court again, you will be arrested. The reason is that you are involved in the activities organized by an international criminal gang recognized by the national criminal law. The defendants, the plaintiffs, who attended the Flame Court, were all suspected of crimes. The good news is that the nature of the previous national punishment was not determined, and your previous cooperation with the Grand League was not suspected of a crime. If you are picky, lawyer Cao, your email correspondence with Flame may also be suspected of a crime. ”

There are nearly 200 countries in the national criminal system, and to define the Grand Alliance as a bad guy, most of the member states need to agree. Once it is decided, unless the national punishment is withdrawn, at least on the surface, the big league cannot be openly connived, which is the bottom line of the rules of the game.

Lu Yihang said: "The proposal of the French police was adopted at the national criminal conference, and at the same time, representatives of more than 20 countries issued statements in support of the fight against the grand alliance. The theme of the National Criminal Punishment Conference in three months is "Transnational Gang Crime". ”

Cao Yun: "That means I can't attend the Flame Court anymore?"

Lu Yihang nodded: "Yes, even if Dongtang ignores it, you will be in trouble." You're going to a country that has already put your file into the system, and you can't go through customs. The video evidence in court is very clear that the police of the national criminal state can arrest you at any time. For example, if you appear in public in the Eastern Tang Dynasty and are not arrested, the National Punishment Committee will accuse the Eastern Tang of conniving at crimes. ”

Cao Yun thought for a long time: "If I get the gold medal for exoneration, I can still attend the Flame Trial to earn some pocket money, right?"

"How do you get away with it?"

Cao Yundao: "If I participate in the flame trial as the official undercover person of the Dongtang police......"

Lu Yihang was stunned for a long time: "Cao, Cao, Lawyer Cao, my shameless thoughts are no longer understandable to me. "Isn't it too much? Attend a Flame trial as a police informant to earn money. How did Cao Yun get the identity of an informant, the ghost knows, Lu Yihangjue's Cao Yun should have got it.

Cao Yun is more concerned with practical topics: "Yes?"

Lu Yihang thought for a long time: "If this is the case, there should be no problem." You go to the Flame Court to attend the trial to assist the police in the fight against the big leagues. Even if you're injured, can you still be considered a hero?"

In the days that followed, a number of countries arrested the big league merchants who were under surveillance. The worst of all was when the French police arrested a member of the Mockingbird, a second-tier merchant in the Grand League. Robinbirds have a very special position in the Grand League, not only do they sell the information needed by the merchants of the Grand League, but they even have dealings with some national intelligence agencies. Because of the arrest of the members, robin suspended the business of the major league.

The Dongtang police held a press conference to explain the nature of the Grand Alliance and remind the public that anyone involved in the operation of the Flame Court, including defendants, plaintiffs, witnesses, etc., is suspected of gang crime.

On the other hand, the search lesson is still having a headache about Zhang Ziqiao's case, and they subjectively believe Andre's testimony. The question is, who transferred the flowers and invited Zhang Ziqiao to kill people in the Eastern Tang Dynasty.

But prosecutors don't think so, evidence is more important than ideas. Andre's testimony is not convincing, and it can basically be determined that Bai Ya asked Andre to contact Cao Yun to deal with Cao Yun, and Andre contacted Zhang Ziqiao. In this chain of evidence, except for Bai Ya's order that this link has not been confirmed, the chain of evidence for Andre to contact Zhang Ziqiao has been very complete.

There is also a legal controversy. Bai Ya asked Andre to contact Cao Yun to deal with Cao Yun, does Bai Ya have to be responsible for Zhang Ziqiao? Obviously, the nature of hiring a black man and hiring Zhang Ziqiao is different. The black man is not guilty in the Eastern Tang Dynasty, and Zhang Ziqiao is an important wanted criminal in the Eastern Tang Dynasty.

This question still depends on the evidence in the hands of the prosecutor to see if the evidence can nail Bai Ya. At the four meetings, the two factions argued endlessly and refused to give in to each other. Under these circumstances, the procuratorate sent out more than 10 invitations through the lawyers' committee, asking lawyer Dongtang to diagnose the case together.

……

Cao Yun also got the invitation letter, and Ling Hulan, as Bai Ya's lawyer, was not in the invitation ranks.

The Lawyers Committee was very helpful and held a buffet cocktail party. After eating and drinking enough at noon, more than a dozen lawyers were invited to the conference room.

In the conference room, Sima Luo explained the situation of the case, and there is no need to keep the materials in the hands of the police at present, and Bai Ya's lawyer team has completely mastered the police materials. However, this meeting is an informal meeting, and no records and photographs are allowed, and Sima Luo also asks everyone to keep the content of the meeting confidential.

There are very few materials, and the only thing that can testify to Bai Ya is Andre's confession.

A lawyer: "The law recognizes relational reasoning to a certain extent, and according to my idea, it is possible to allow people working in the Eastern Inner Court to testify in court to prove Bai Ya's rights and jurisdiction." The people who can ask Andre to do bad things are Bai Menglou, Bai Ya and Dongfang. Bai Ya will not bite the East, Bai Menglou was detained at that time. During this period, all the affairs of Oriental Villa were decided by Bai Ya, and I think the judge can accept this relationship reasoning. Coupled with Andre's testimony, the accusation of Bai Ya can be confirmed. ”

Another lawyer: "I don't quite agree. Lawyer X has a point, but the trouble is in Andrei's testimony. Andre said that he contacted the black man of Sri Lanka, not Zhang Ziqiao. The evidence shows that Andre contacted Zhang Ziqiao, not a black man. Andre always insisted on his testimony, so that the court could not admit Andrei's testimony unless it was proved wrong. ”

Andrei: I followed the orders of the white girl and hired the black man.

This sentence has two meanings, one means that Bai Ya gave him an order, and he obeyed. The second meaning is that he hired the Black Hero. Now the evidence suggests that Andre did not hire the Black Man, but Zhang Ziqiao. Then lawyer Bai Ya can use this to knock down Andre's testimony. Since the court rejected Andre's testimony of hiring a black man, why did it accept Andre's testimony of following Baiya's orders?

Another lawyer: "Yes, that's a contradiction. If I were a lawyer Baiya, I would invalidate Andre's testimony through the dispute between Heixia and Zhang Ziqiao. Without Andrei's testimony to back it up, it would have been almost impossible to convict Bai Ya. Bai Ya's lawyer is Ling Hulan and the other four, I have dealt with lawyer Ling Hu, it is impossible for her to ignore this detail. ”

Another lawyer: "I agree with the relationship inference, Andre and Lawyer Cao do not have any conflict of interest, and Bai Ya has a conflict of interest." I think the judge will accept that Andre was instructed to contact Zhang Ziqiao. ”

Lawyer XX: "Prosecutor Sima, this case is not easy to say, why don't you invite lawyer Ouyang Yi? He should have the most right to speak." ”

Sima Luo said regretfully: "After the conclusion of the Bai Menglou case, lawyer Ouyang Yi temporarily lived in seclusion to cultivate his mind. He was finally contacted, and he eventually declined the offer. Everyone, everyone knows who Zhang Ziqiao is, if it weren't for the special case, it wouldn't bother and bother everyone. The longer this case drags on, the longer Zhang Ziqiao can live, and I think everyone here wants to see Zhang Ziqiao brought to justice. Zhang Ziqiao himself does not want to be judged, he has already tried to commit suicide four times. We must end the Bai Ya case as soon as possible, and after the case is concluded, we can return the case to Zhang Ziqiao's file, and the new and old accounts can be counted together. ”

The law is like this, a murderer escapes, the case is investigated clearly, and the person can be brought to trial as soon as he is caught. But if the murderer does a new case while he is on the run, then the new case must be investigated and brought to trial. In view of Zhang Ziqiao's behavior of begging for death and being afraid of being tried, objectively the prosecutor has the need to quickly end the Bai Ya case.

Zhang Ziqiao's body is weak and can be controlled, and after his body slowly recovers, it is becoming more and more difficult to take care of him. As a judicial officer, you can't use bad medicine to make Zhang Ziqiao always stay weak, which is against the law.

Lawyer XX: "Prosecutor Sima, I heard that Bai Ya proposed a deal, and she asked to avoid death. ”

Sima Luo: "Well, probably." ”

Lawyer XX: "Why don't you agree? I have always been an opponent of the death penalty, and if Bai Ya does not die, it is unlikely that she will come out in this life." ”

Lawyer XXX said: "Zhang Ziqiao's attack resulted in the death of a member of the guard. In the case of a police officer's death, there is no precedent for the prosecution to agree to a deal. Maybe Bai Ya may not be sentenced to death if she goes to court, but the prosecutor can't make any deals. ”

Lawyer XX: "But what do you say about Andrei's death-free deal?"

Lawyer XXX was stunned, and Sima Luo explained: "Deactly, Andri is the principal offender, and his responsibility is secondary to the first offender. Not the first time, though. "Zhang Ziqiao definitely didn't trade, Zhang Ziqiao is the big head. What Sima Luo meant by this was that in order to be able to finish off the big deal, the prosecution did not rule out making certain concessions.
