Chapter 320: Trial (2)

The defense lawyer continued: "When the director of the Wild Grass Iron Works heard that the business of this poverty alleviation project was very hot, he secretly invited Mr. Feng Shui to look at the land, and Mr. Feng Shui told him that this land is a treasure of Feng Shui, and if he occupies this land, he can soar to prosper!"

Therefore, the director of the iron factory wanted to do everything possible to get his hands on this piece of land, so he secretly bribed the head of Shandi Village and gave the village chief 500,000 yuan. The village chief rented out this poverty alleviation base, which had signed a 20-year contract with two college students, for a year, and then leased the land to the iron factory behind the two college students' backs. (The village chief has now been arrested on suspicion of commercial bribery.) As a result, the iron factory began to entangle the people and horses to smash and loot this poverty alleviation project base three times in a row. Attempts were made to illegally seize and turn this poverty alleviation base into the private domain of the director of the iron factory. The base for improving the poor life of the villagers in Shandi Village has been turned into a feng shui treasure for him to make money personally.

As the workers rose up to defend it, the iron factory broke into the factory area twice in a row and smashed and looted the base. The directors of the ironworks thought that the workers of their ironworks were too timid to do anything. This third time, he hired 200 ruffians from the village with a lot of money, and these people often fought and made trouble in the village, and all of them were ruthless, and the director of the iron factory recruited these people to form a "death squad". It can be seen from this that these hired ruffians and hooligans want to kill and injure people from the first place, and this victim is a village tyrant in Huaishugou Village, a person who has been released from prison after completing his sentence with a bad record, and everyone knows that he has committed crimes and bullied the township in the Huaishugou area.

The director of the iron factory had inflated his selfish desires, so he hired such outlaws with illegal money, and encouraged them to be brave in hurting and killing people, and left half of the reward, telling them to come to the factory to receive it after completing the task. This is tantamount to spending a lot of money to buy and kill!

So in the dark of the night, this group of outlaws broke into the factory area of the poverty alleviation base with iron rods, and before they attacked, the captain of the death squad yelled at his teammates: If anyone does not do it, so that he cannot receive the half of the reward, he will settle accounts with someone!

So under the stimulation of heavy money, these 200 death squads have become devils, and suddenly launched an attack on the villagers of Shandi Village who defended their factory area, frantically murdering and slashing, the workers were caught off guard, and many people were injured and fell to the ground, staining the factory area with blood. Some of the workers who came to their senses rose up to defend themselves. ”

The entire courtroom was silent, listening silently, and the defense lawyer's speech could be heard even if a needle fell on the ground.

Lawyer Peng continued: "The defendant, as one of the persons in charge of the factory, led the workers to defend themselves in order to protect the factory area and the lives of the workers, and planned to drive the rioters out of the factory. However, in the scuffle, Sun Hu, the captain of the death squad who had injured many people, was also the victim of this case, and was holding an iron rod and slamming it into the back of the head of Liu Dabao, the director of the poverty alleviation base, and at this time Liu Dabao did not see Sun Hu's iron rod at all.

At this critical moment, the defendant quickly pushed Liu Dabao away, and Liu Dabao was fortunate to avoid the fatal iron rod and escaped from the ghost gate, but the defendant himself did not completely dodge, and the iron rod fell and swept the side of his right head, and immediately the blood flowed. The defendant endured the pain and rushed over and snatched the iron rod from the victim's hand, but the victim immediately snatched another iron rod from the hands of the death squad members beside him, and was about to commit another assault when the defendant knocked him to the ground with an iron rod. That's the whole story of what the defendant went through.

The third paragraph of Article 20 of the Criminal Law of our country stipulates very clearly, "Whoever takes defensive actions against an ongoing violent crime that seriously endangers personal safety, causing injury or injury to the unlawful offender, is not considered to be in excessive defense and does not bear criminal responsibility." ”

And now the defendant standing in the dock is facing a violent crime of a large group of people called death squads who are committing murder, murder, robbery, and attempting to kidnap Liu Dabao, the director of the poverty alleviation base. The defendant acted in defense in his own factory area, causing the unlawful infringer to be injured or injured. Therefore, according to the provisions of the Criminal Law, the defendant did not have excessive defense and did not bear criminal responsibility. ”

Suddenly, there was a burst of applause from the auditorium!

The presiding judge quickly stopped: "Stop the noise, be quiet, be quiet!"

Lawyer Peng continued: "From this story, we can see how difficult it is to get rid of poverty and become rich in rural areas, and at the same time, we can also see that the root cause of rural poverty is corruption, power rent-seeking, and collusion between officials and businessmen, which seriously squeezes the living space of poor villagers.

Two aspiring and idealistic college students from Xinhua University in Beijing gave up their brilliant future and resolutely returned to the impoverished villages, using the knowledge they learned to help the villagers get rid of the poverty they had lived in for many years.

So with the support of the state, the two college students built two factories, and the workers of the factories were all poor villagers from Shandi Village and Huangling Village, and the villagers were so excited that they cried after receiving their wages, they had never seen so much money. However, just when they saw a little hope, they were violently attacked by corrupt village officials and private bosses who wanted to seize the gains of the villagers.

In order to protect the property of the factory and the lives of the workers, the defendant was not afraid of personal safety, faced danger, sacrificed himself to save others, and bravely fought against a large group of criminal thugs armed with murder weapons even though he was physically injured and his clothes were stained with blood. Such behavior should not only not be punished, but should be supported and commended, and justice should be promoted, social justice should be maintained, and the great decision to save poverty called for by the state should be upheld, so that corruption cannot breed and there is no market for power rent-seeking. Therefore, the defendant should be acquitted, and justice should not be allowed to shed blood and tears!

The applause rang out again!

The presiding judge announced: The court will be adjourned for 10 minutes, and the collegial panel will deliberate on the case.

The adjudicators left their seats and walked into the collegial room at the back of the courtroom. The audience members also got up and left their seats and walked out into the courtyard. People were whispering about the lawyer's speech as they walked.

Some people who are not optimistic about the role of lawyers say: "Lawyers speak well, but judges have to listen, and if judges don't listen, they will be talking in vain." ”

The workers said excitedly: "This lawyer hired by the director of Dabao is not bad! He is worthy of being a barrister in Beijing!"

Some workers who were worried about the fate of the fat pigs said: "I don't know how the judges decide? Do they listen to the lawyer or the prosecutor?"

After a while, the judges entered the seats again, and the people who were watching returned to their seats one after another, and the entire audience was silent, and the people held their breath to listen to the presiding judge's verdict.

At this point, the clerk shouted, "All stand up!"

The presiding judge began to pronounce the verdict: "The victim in this case, under the temptation of heavy money, lost his mind, entangled a large group of people to set up a death squad, and illegally broke into the poverty alleviation base in Shandi Village in the middle of the night, and beat up the workers of the poverty alleviation base, and brutally injured many people, which has constituted a serious crime. However, in view of the fact that the victim has died, the crime is no longer prosecuted in accordance with the law. However, in order to protect the property safety of the factory and the lives of the workers, the defendant led the workers to defend themselves, and his conduct was justified defense, and it was an act of defense against an ongoing violent crime such as assault, homicide, and robbery, resulting in the death of the unlawful aggressor, and was not considered excessive defense. The defendant is hereby sentenced as follows in accordance with law:"

The audience was silent, and everyone held their breath, for fear that a little noise would affect the content of the presiding judge's verdict in a comprehensive and complete manner.

In the end, the presiding judge said in a sonorous and forceful voice: "The defendant is not guilty! He does not bear any legal responsibility, and the victim Sun Hu's civil compensation request is rejected! The shackles are removed, and the defendant is given his freedom!"

Suddenly, the audience erupted in thunderous applause, and the applause lasted for a long time, when someone in the audience shouted: "A fair and strict good judge!"

More than 1,500 workers shouted in unison: "Good judge! Good judge!"

As if he couldn't believe it was true, the fat pig still stood still, when two bailiffs came and opened the handcuffs and shackles for him, and told him: "You are innocent, now you can go home!"

The fat pig only then understood, and suddenly burst into tears, and bowed deeply to the presiding judge with tears in his eyes, and then covered his cheeks with both hands, and silent tears fell on the ground of the defendant's dock between the fingers of the fat pig's two rough big hands.

More than 1,000 workers immediately went up to surround the fat pigs, and Dabao went up and hugged the fat pigs tightly in his arms, and the workers were also excited to shed tears!

After a while, the fat pig said: "Factory director, thank you for rescuing me!" and then said to everyone: "Thank you for caring about me, so many people are here!"

Everyone almost carried the fat pig out of the courtroom, and then sat in the car of the director of the Dabao factory, and more than 1,000 workers rode a number of buses in the factory to return to Bawang Beach in the village at the bottom of the mountain! Billowing smoke and dust ...... behind them.

It was almost dusk, and the round orange sun had gradually slid towards the top of the mountains in the west, as if an audience who had watched a vigorous play performed on the stage of life and was ready to go home.

The brilliance it sprinkled in the mountains was moving towards the top of the mountain little by little, little by little, and finally all retreated to the top of the mountains, which was golden, as if wearing a golden crown on the top of the mountains.

It couldn't bear to take all its golden light away, leaving a dark night on earth. Because today's human repertoire moved it, it found that there is still justice in the world, and the charm of justice makes it linger, it wants to leave more light for justice, give justice more luster, and let justice shine, so it lingers on the top of the west mountain and refuses to leave.
