Chapter 394: Reconnecting the Locked Room Murder Case (1st Update)
Lee Dong-woo is suspected of killing two people, and his modus operandi of using the narrow secret room and the Guangyi secret room also made Kim Yun-ho helpless for a time, and no direct evidence was left at the scene.
The only eyewitness was Zhao Dongmin, who suffered from severe intellectual disability, and the court could not admit his testimony.
The only breakthrough in this case is Lee Dong-woo's confession.
However, at the second trial of the first trial, Li Dongyu, who was terminally ill of cancer, suddenly retracted his confession and flatly denied killing the two deceased.
The trial suddenly came to an impasse.
Subsequently, Li Dongyu's lawyer presented a new piece of evidence in court.
After Dong Seong-do snatched the case from Kim Yoon-ho, he interrogated Lee Dong-woo alone many times. On one occasion, he turned off the audio and video recording equipment secrets and secretly interrogated Lee Dong-woo.
Li Dongyu's lawyer used this as evidence, claiming that Li Dongyu was induced and tortured by Dongchengdu; The confession of Li Dongyu obtained by Dongchengdu before was completely illegal and invalid.
In the absence of conclusive evidence, it is difficult to convict Liu Dongren.
Now there is evidence of Dongchengdu's illegal interrogation, which is even more unfavorable to the prosecution.
After collegial deliberations, the Seoul District Court finally ruled that Liu Dongren was not guilty and released on the spot due to insufficient evidence and illegal trial procedures.
After the verdict was announced, Dong Chengdu was hit by a huge blow, and he sat in a chair in despair, unable to figure out why the duck flew to his beak.
Losing the case in a public trial that attracted the attention of all parties was not an ordinary serious blow to the reputation of Dongchengdu.
Now he doesn't dare to expect any more credit, he will not be punished by the Supreme Prosecutor's Office, and it will be good to be able to sit firmly in the chief position in the future.
Kim Yoon-ho on the verdict. Not unexpected.
He had felt that there was something wrong with this case before. Later, Park Kook-kwon also confirmed his conjecture. Even to make a fuss about this case.
At that time, Kim Yun-ho guessed today's result and knew that Dong Seong-do was used as an abandoned pawn.
After learning the news of the case from Shin Donghaikou, Kim Yun-ho's attention was completely attracted.
Xu Xian's matter was also put aside for the time being.
He cut off all irrelevant thoughts and prepared to deal with the case with all his might.
"This case is being heard this afternoon?" Kim Yoon-ho asked.
Shen Donghai swallowed the food in his mouth, wiped his mouth and replied, "Well, the hall closes at 5 pm." I called you at the time and no one answered. β
At 5 o'clock in the afternoon, Kim Yun-ho was at the scene of the music bank program. It was very noisy, so I didn't hear it.
Kim Yun-ho didn't dwell on the matter, and after listening to Shin Dong-hae's report, he immediately called Park Guoquan.
After the phone was connected, Park Guoquan asked directly: "Did you receive the news?" β
"Well, I heard that." Kim Yun-ho said, "What instructions do you have?" β
Park Guoquan replied lightly: "Don't rush to handle the case first, wait with peace of mind." When this case has attracted widespread attention and discussion in the society, it is the time for your surveillance department to take action.
We will take this opportunity to take care of all the procedures of the Surveillance Division for you. The rest is up to you. β
Kim Yunho nodded and replied, "Understood." Then I'll start preparing on this side. β
Park Guoquan let out a soft 'um' in a nasal voice and hung up the phone.
Drop the phone. Kim Yun-ho thought for a moment, then drained the soju in the cup. smiled and instructed Shen Donghai:
"Calling all members of the Surveillance Section!"
ββ
The Lee Dong-woo murder case contains too many elements.
Murder in a closed room; child abuse by the deceased; domestic violence by the husband; A wife commits suicide after conspiring with the murderer to kill her husband; The only survivors were mentally disabled children; There is no evidence to release the most likely murderer, Lee Dong-woo, in court.
Each point is a topic, and with so many topics concentrated in a case, the topicality is undoubtedly huge.
Therefore, after the follow-up report of this case appeared, it caused widespread discussion in society in a short period of time.
While accusing the police and prosecutors of incompetence, the public strongly demanded that the judicial officers find evidence, try Lee Dong-woo again, and give justice to the deceased.
However, the police and the prosecution are powerless to deal with this case, and there is no possibility of handling the case head-on.
It was under these conditions that the Surveillance Section, the secret branch of the police, was formally established.
A sharp sword was born.
ββ
The area near the District Prosecutor's Office in Tongque District is extremely prosperous and lively, with busy traffic on the streets and people coming and going.
From a distance, there are several modern office buildings not far behind the District Prosecutor's Office.
The top floor of the most inconspicuous building is the headquarters of the Surveillance Section.
The identity of its staff members is highly confidential, as the Surveillance Section is carrying out covert tracking missions.
As a result, the offices of the Surveillance Section were secretly located in the market.
At the same time, all staff members of the Surveillance Section were required to dress in civilian clothes and disguise themselves as ordinary office workers working here.
After entering the office building, entering the top floor where the surveillance department is located, there is only one path - the elevator.
As for the security passage, it is completely locked and is not open at all at all to prevent others from infiltrating the Surveillance Section's office area.
When Kim Yoon-ho comes to work here, he uses a secret exclusive elevator to go directly to the top floor from the parking lot.
His whereabouts are especially noteworthy.
This is also the reason why the office of the Surveillance Section is located near the District Prosecutor's Office, so that Kim Yoon-ho, who is a prosecutor, can enter and exit.
Walking into the top floor, the first thing you see is the super-large-scale front desk.
Here, there are 4 men, 4 women, and 8 receptionists.
The four men are security guards and are responsible for monitoring the security at the entrance of the Section to prevent people from breaking in.
The four women, who are also police officers, are responsible for registration, reception and some personnel work.
After a rigorous check, after passing through several security gates, we arrived at the office area of the Surveillance Section.
The entire office area is divided into 3 sections.
Intermediate position: the command center equipped with various high-tech equipment, which is also the main working area of the technical group.
Left-hand side: The work area of the investigation and tracking groups.
On the right-hand side: the work areas of the Operations Group and the Logistics Group.
There is also a small arms depot in the post-group work area, which stores a variety of weapons for operational use. The security here is also very tight.
Only after Kim Yoon-ho gave a clear order. The arsenal will open.
After walking into the office area. You will clearly feel the very serious working atmosphere.
The dΓ©cor in each area gives a sense of simplicity and fashion. Red light. The strong contrast between black and white is illuminated, revealing the seriousness and solemnity of judicial work.
Kim Yoon-ho's office is located at the back of the command center, in the innermost part of the entire floor.
The spacious office doesn't have much furnishings, a large desk, a set of sofas, a row of filing cabinets, a few potted plants, and nothing else.
The only feature of this office is the large floor-to-ceiling windows. Bright windows open onto the floor. Standing by the window, you can look down on the whole block.
"Knock knock."
Li Huina knocked on the door and walked in, and reported: "Jin Cixi, everyone has arrived, and according to your orders, they are all gathered in the command center to stand by." β
"Got it."
Kim Yoon-ho, who was standing in front of the floor-to-ceiling window and enjoying the view, turned around, straightened his suit, and then strode out of the room.
Kim Yoon-ho came to the command center and saw the scene of full talent, and he was proud and proud.
Because most of the people here are hand-picked by him. Many of them are his henchmen or people who can become his henchmen in the near future.
Investigation team: Team leader Kim Yoon-ho concurrently, deputy team leader Yoon Guohong. Team members Shin Donghae and Park Ji-tian.
Tracking group: Team leader Kim Yun-ho concurrently, deputy team leader Hippo, team members wild dogs, monkeys, elephants, Han Zixin, Kwon Jeong-sun.
Hippo has strong communication skills, and he serves as the deputy team leader to assist in managing the tracking team, and Kim Yunhao is more assured.
Kwon Jung-sun can be said to have entered the police system quickly, and it took less than two days before and after.
Now he stood in the crowd with his back straight, and it looked like that.
In comparison, Han Zixin's entry is much simpler. They are all people within the police, and it is very convenient to mobilize. And as the only woman in the tracking group, she stands very conspicuous in the crowd.
Action Group: Team leader Jiang Zhonghao, team members are 12 special operations policemen.
Thirteen members of the Operational Group are on standby at all times, and additional special operations police officers will be deployed if additional support is required.
Technical group: Team leader Lee Yoon-hee, team members are 16 cutting-edge technicians in various fields.
The 17 members of the technical team were all arranged by the police to provide technical support such as communications for the Surveillance Section, and at the same time were responsible for all the work of surveillance.
Therefore, Kim Yun-ho did not plan to make deep friends with these people, and his expectation for them was that he could complete the task on time.
The last group is the logistics group: team leader Song Enzhi, team member Li Huina and others.
The task of the Logistics Team is to deal with all matters other than cases, to provide the necessary logistical support for the Surveillance Section, and to take charge of some of the personnel work.
Kim Yoon-ho's choice of Song Eun-ji as the leader of the logistics team was a matter of course.
The work of the logistics team, although chaotic, is also very important.
The most important thing is that when Kim Yoon-ho leads the team out on a mission, someone at home also needs to take care of him.
And Song Enzhi, who is calm and capable, is a very suitable candidate.
As for Lee Hin-na, Kim Yun-ho's arrangement for her is still the same: help him deal with interpersonal relationships and find out the news every day.
After looking at all the members, Kim Yunhao steadily came to the big screen and said:
"The Surveillance Section is officially established today! In the future, this will be where we will work, and the people around you will be partners who will fight side by side in the future, so I hope you will get to know each other as soon as possible. β
After the short opening remarks, Kim Yun-ho didn't ramble and went straight to the point.
He picked up the laser pointer and pointed to the big screen behind him and introduced:
"This person, named Lee Dong-woo, is the biggest suspect in the secret room murder case. The case was decided in the first instance three days ago, and due to insufficient evidence, this person was acquitted and released in court.
Now the outside world is paying close attention to this case, and the pressure of public opinion is very great.
This case was the first case we took on.
Team leader Song Enzhi, you will introduce the specific facts of the case to you. The other team leaders came to my office for a meeting.
Meet here in half an hour. β
After speaking, Kim Yunhao threw the laser pointer to Song Eunji, and then left with Yoon Guohong, Hippo, Kang Zhonghao, and Lee Yun-hee. (To be continued......)
