Chapter 143: Intimidation
"These two boys are really righteous enough, they actually wrote exactly the same confession, and they all took the responsibility on themselves, if it weren't for the pressure from above, I really couldn't bear it." The warden looked at the two identical confessions and couldn't help but sigh.
"Warden, which of the two confessions should I believe?" The deputy warden on the side asked.
"Do you need to ask? Isn't this a frame-up? There is so much surveillance at the door of No. 1 Middle School, but there is no video evidence, if there is no ghost behind it, it would be strange, not to mention that these two teenagers have no criminal record, especially that Huo Xiaotian, who has done a lot of good things before, I don't believe that such a child can be a murderer, which is clearly framed. The warden became a little excited as he spoke.
"What then?" The deputy warden asked again.
"What else can I do? Just hand in the confession and finish the matter, anyway, this matter is not under our control, and we can't manage it if we want to. The warden said as he swallowed melon seeds.
A few days later, Taishan Overseas Chinese Building, the earliest four-star hotel in Taishan City.
In the luxurious VIP room on the 10th floor, a pompous banquet is being held.
"Uncle Geng, I used to hear my father say that you are a bright and bright judgment, and you are a contemporary Bao Qingtian, this time through your case, the younger generation is really convinced, give you a toast!" Wang Lei didn't care about the air leaking in his mouth, and greeted the middle-aged man sitting in the guest of honor.
"Enforce the law impartially, enforce the law impartially!" The middle-aged man said with a smile.
"Uncle Geng, how many years can Huo Xiaotian be sentenced?" Wang Lei came to the middle-aged man's side, poured wine diligently, and asked in a low voice.
"If it is a death caused by negligence, the minor circumstances are less than three years, and the most serious circumstances are only about seven years." The middle-aged man said.
As soon as he heard this, Wang Lei was not happy at that time, he couldn't wait for Huo Xiaotian to be shot immediately, how could he be released in seven years?
"Uncle Geng, can you add a key punishment? Even if you don't shoot him, why do you have to be locked up for ten or twenty years? Wang Lei asked anxiously, if it is released in seven years, Huo Xiaotian is in his twenties, in case Zhao Mengqi is still waiting for him, then he will have no fun, if it is locked up for ten years and twenty years, then it is estimated that Zhao Mengqi will be dead, and when Huo Xiaotian is released, maybe Zhao Mengqi will already be married.
"Xiao Lei, Uncle Geng understands your feelings, I am also your father's old friend, but friendship is friendship, Uncle Geng is by no means a person who abolishes the public with private interests, justice, it must be fair." The middle-aged man raised his voice and said, so that many people here could hear it.
"Uncle Geng, it's all your own people here, what else are you playing? My dad said, after this incident, I'll lick this number for you. Wang Lei whispered, and said with five fingers stretched out in private.
The middle-aged man glanced at it without a trace, without the slightest change in expression on his face, and said: "Lei Lei, don't induce Uncle Geng to make mistakes, Uncle Geng is a principled person, even if your father is concerned, it is useless." ”
Wang Lei saw that the middle-aged man just didn't let go, and he even touched his nose with ash, and his heart was depressed.
"This case has to be judged impartially, he Huo Xiaotian is guilty of negligence causing death, we can't sentence more, he is intentional homicide, Uncle Geng will definitely not be sentenced less, in short, it is necessary to reflect judicial fairness!" The middle-aged man said this, and Wang Lei, who was often influenced by his father, reacted immediately and returned to his seat with a smile.
As Wang Lei, who is deeply versed in the rules of officialdom, he has learned a lot of officialdom experience from his father, and the most taboo in officialdom is to run the train with his mouth full, and he will never say things too absolutely.
What President Geng just said seemed to be to reflect judicial fairness on the surface, but in fact he was just putting on a sheep's clothing of judicial justice, as for whether he was talking about negligence causing death or intentional homide? It's not a matter of his words?
glanced at a few big leaders in the court, as well as a few jury members, can Wang Lei still be able to see it?
These guys who eat, drink, eat and take, as long as they are fed, they are the people of your boat.
……
At the same time, in the Wuma Law Firm in Taishan City, several young people in civilian clothes suddenly broke into the office.
"Who is lawyer Zhang Bingzheng?" The leader asked.
"I am, what's wrong?" A young man in the office stood up and asked.
Before he could understand what was going on, several young men suddenly picked up sticks and kicked him wildly, and several timid female lawyers ran out of the office in fright.
After a frenzied beating, the young man led by grabbed lawyer Zhang Bingzheng's hair and pulled it back violently, Zhang Bingzheng screamed in pain and raised his head.
"Boy, if you want to live, don't meddle in this case again, or your whole family will be doomed." The man said as he dropped a few photos, along with an envelope, and swaggered away from the scene.
Zhang Bingzheng has never encountered this kind of thing since he became a lawyer, and it is unbelievable that he beat people for no reason in broad daylight, and after beating people, he still left so arrogantly and fearlessly.
However, he also understands that the reason why these people dare to be so arrogant, there must be someone behind them, looking at the photos on the ground, Zhang Bingzheng's face suddenly turned pale, and the people in the photos turned out to be his father, mother and little sister who were far away in the countryside, which shows that these people have already made their own family backgrounds clear, and if they intervene in this case again, maybe the whole family will be in danger.
Although he also wanted to help the victim in this case as much as possible, when he thought of his family, Zhang Bingzheng fell into a painful entanglement.
"Lawyer Zhang, Lawyer Zhang, are you okay? Do you want to take you to the hospital? ”
"I'm fine." Zhang Bingzheng picked up the broken glasses on the ground and put the photo and envelope into his leather pocket.
In the evening, Huo Xiaotian was at home.
"Huh? Lawyer Zhang, your face? This is? Looking at Zhang Bingzheng's blue nose and swollen face, He Xiaoqian asked with concern, these days, this lawyer Zhang has always been very concerned about Huo Xiaotian's case, and has made breakthroughs in some key details, so that the case is gradually turning in a better direction, as long as he wins another game in the next trial, maybe his son can change the sentence from intentional homicide to negligence causing death, plus Huo Xiaotian is still eighteen years old, when the time comes, the law will definitely give a light sentence, maybe it won't take three or five years, The son will be released from prison after completing his sentence.
Thinking of this, He Xiaoqian seems to feel that there is hope for things again, if it really comes true, her son may be able to return to society before he is twenty, and when the time comes, it will not be too late. (To be continued.) )
