Chapter 162: Sadness flows backwards
This touched Yao Lianhua's sadness, remembering the nightmare after walking into the hotel that day, she shuddered, cried bitterly, and even the memories were unforgettable pain.
The presiding judge struck the gavel and said majestically to Yao Lianhua: "The defendant accuses himself of his own feelings, now is the time of the trial, please pay attention to the appearance during the trial." The trial continued, and the defendant answered questions truthfully. β
Yao Lianhua covered her mouth with her hands, holding back her cries to prevent her crying from coming out. After a while, he nodded painfully, and then he sobbed: "He didn't come to talk to me about divorce at all, Ye Tianlong is not a person!" As soon as you come in...... He...... He forcibly stripped me of my clothes, insulted me while picking up my clothes, punched and kicked me, burned me with cigarette butts, knocked me to the ground, and then stomped my head with his feet, and grabbed my head and hit the wall......"
Yao Lianhua wept and recounted in detail the scene on the day of the crime. The brutal evil deeds, the chilling violence, were told from the mouth of the weak woman of GuΓ² Yao Lianhua, with a chilling and shocking effect. The eyes of the observers were red, and a wave of anger rushed to the top of their heads, especially the female observers, who were all crying. Yao Lianhua's family also cried miserably, and they were really distressed that such family members were beaten and abused inhumanely.
The court was gloomy, everyone was pressing a boulder in their hearts, and their hearts were panicked, how could there be such a scum who was so ruthless to his wife? !
The courtroom resounded one after another with low sobs, and the presiding judge had to maintain order loudly again, "Quiet, quiet, this court once again reminds the defendant and his observers that they must abide by the courtroom order and adjust their feelings, otherwise it will seriously affect the efficiency and effectiveness of the trial." β
The defense lawyer continued to question.
Shanruo also cried into tears, and opened his mouth with a crying tone, so he simply stopped talking, and glanced at Li Chao with tears in his eyes, and motioned for Li Chao to ask questions.
Li Chao nodded lightly. To be honest, he also lamented the tragic fate of Yao Lianhua in his heart, but Li Chao did not forget his identity and mission as a defense lawyer.
He tried his best to remain calm and continued to ask rationally: "Yao Lianhua, you said that you have been beaten since the second month of pregnancy with your eldest daughter, that is to say, you have been beaten by Ye Tianlong since you were 18 years old, please tell me how Ye Tianlong has committed domestic violence against you in the years since you got married." β
Li Chao didn't want to stimulate Yao Lianhua anymore and didn't want to ask such a heavy question, but he could only clearly show the inhumane pain suffered by Yao Lianhua. Only when the judge is clearly placed in court to sue Judge SΓΉ will the judge sympathize with Yao Lianhua and realize Ye Tianlong's abomination and sin.
Yao Lianhua's feelings, which had become slightly smooth, suddenly became excited again, and she began to speak with a look of fear and horror, with lingering depression and fear in her tone.
"The ...... who is pregnant with her eldest daughter In the second month, Ye Tianlong played cards with others...... When you lose money, you curse when you come back...... Scold me, say I'm ...... It's a broom star. ruined his luck and cursed...... Still angry, he immediately slapped me, and I ...... I was stunned. Before I could come to my senses, he backhanded...... Another slap in the face, slapped me to the ground, and rode it right on top of me......"
Yao Lianhua wept silently about the hardships she had suffered over the years.
When it comes to the eve of Ye Tianlong's election as a public representative. She was beaten repeatedly and forcibly hung on the door of the room, watching Ye Tianlong and Lan Yu'er shamelessly run in the clouds. Yao Lianhua's love suddenly got out of control.
"Ahh Ahh Ahh Yao Lianhua couldn't cry, so sad that she couldn't breathe, and she craned her neck again and again before swallowing this sullen breath. Immediately, the whole person lay down on the railing of the standing cage like a rag! The head was buried between the arms, rocking desperately back and forth.
The sound of sad crying, which came out of the bent body, was even more dull and painful, like a heavy hammer, striking everyone's hearts and torturing everyone's conscience.
Everyone's breathing became heavier, and before they knew it, tears flowed down their faces, and sadness flowed backwards.
Yao Lianhua's mother couldn't hold back any longer, grabbed her hair, and wailed, "My hard-working daughter! β
This sound was like a fuse, and the people who were listening could no longer suppress the sad emotion, and completely exploded, and the cry that was originally whispered was released at once, and the crying sound of the entire courtroom was deafening.
Miserable and miserable, mourning is everywhere, and the cry is shaking the sky!
Everyone was crying, and some even shouted, "Ye Tianlong, beasts, beasts!" β
"Scum, you deserve to be killed!"
"Hit the streets, there is no humanity!"
Yao Lianhua's tragic experience completely infected everyone, and they empathized and wept bitterly.
Kindness is like tears that can't stop flowing. Xu Ling's eyes were red, but the identity of the prosecutor did not allow her to have tears in her eyes.
Even on the trial seat, the people's assessors had never heard of such a tragic thing, and couldn't help but wipe the tears from the edge of their eyes. Only the judges and the presiding judge remained, and because they were shouldering the duty of adjudication, they endured with expressionless faces.
The presiding judge's eyes were also a little moist, but when he saw crying on and off the stage, his head was big, and the court couldn't be opened at all.
Before, everyone was warned one after another to control the feelings, but the feelings brewed to a certain extent, no matter how much they suppressed, they couldn't control the feelings, and there must be a channel to vent.
The presiding judge, the judges, and the people's assessors exchanged glances, and then the presiding judge struck the gavel and announced in a soft tone: "In view of the fact that everyone's feelings are out of control during the trial, this court has decided to adjourn the court for 30 minutes.
The courtroom is a sacred place for trial, and we respect the right of the parties to fully explain the facts of the case, but we also ask everyone to pay attention to abide by the court's trial order and consciously cooperate with the court's investigation and trial. Only in this way can the court investigate the facts and make a fair ruling on the case! β
After the presiding judge announced the adjournment, the bailiff on duty helped Yao Lianhua, who was crying into tears and unable to stand firmly. Xu Ling, a member of the collegial panel and the prosecutor, withdrew from the courtroom and went to the lounge to discuss.
Since the judge and prosecutor handled the case, they really have not encountered such a situation, the defendant's grief is out of control, and it has infected his family and observers, and the entire trial scene is completely out of control in an instant!
They urgently discussed in the lounge what to do with the next step of the trial, and how to prevent the situation from getting out of control again.
Shanruo also cried so much that she couldn't open her eyes, Li Chao patted her shoulder on the side and comforted her softly: "Shanruo, don't cry." Let's defend well and reduce the punishment for Yao Lianhua, this is the most important task today. β
Shanruo opened her eyes slightly, tears fell straight down, and she choked up and said, "I...... I...... Know, but the atmosphere ...... It's so sad, I ...... I just can't control it! β
Saying that, Shanruo directly buried her head in Li Chao's arms and cried profusely, she also needed to vent her sadness.
Li Chao's eyes were red. But a strong sense of mission keeps him calm and calm, gently comforting the good in his arms.
After the adjournment, the crowd was completely boiling, crying and scolding.
"Ye Tianlong is not a human being, he beat his wife like this, and he deserved to be killed!"
"Yao Lianhua has lived such a miserable life, and she has forcibly endured it for more than ten years, it is really pitiful, she should be sentenced lightly for killing Ye Tianlong!"
"Yes. Ye Tianlong died innocently, and Yao Lianhua killed people for excusation. β
In the end, everyone's thousands of words converged into a loud slogan, "Ye Tianlong is innocent of death." Yao Lianhua is excusable! β
After more than half an hour, the crying gradually stopped, and this fierce venting discharged the stuffiness in everyone's hearts.
After the fury. Crying bitterly will help to dispel resentment. Everyone's eyes were red and swollen, with exhaustion. Sit back in place.
Yao Lianhua was also re-taken to court, her tears had dried up, and she was sobbing weakly, although she was sad, but there was no sign of losing control again.
The presiding judge, Meng Qingge, struck the gavel and solemnly announced: "Now continue the trial!" β
"This court once again reminds the parties, defense lawyers, defendants' families, and other observers that they must abide by the courtroom order, and that the courtroom is a place where cases are heard, and if everyone fails to accuse themselves and affect the trial and postpone the trial, it will prolong the trial period and affect the efficiency and fairness of the adjudication.
This court once again emphasizes that everyone must pay attention to the control of the situation! β
It was too painful to hear, and it was the first time that the collegial panel had encountered a situation in which the crowd sympathized with the murderer and condemned the victim.
And Xu Ling is under even more pressure, as a prosecutor, although she sympathizes with Yao Lianhua from the bottom of her heart, she also clearly feels that the sympathy for the defendant in the court is one-sided. But the status of the prosecutor dictates that her position must be to accuse Yao Lianhua, and her belief and respect for the law make it necessary for her to bring Yao Lianhua to justice.
Under such circumstances, how to properly fulfill the complaint is a challenge for Xu Ling.
As a public prosecutor, Xu Ling must remain calm, rational and objective, and use legal rationality to control the scene, pull the courtroom atmosphere back to a rational track in a certain way, and promote the continuation of the trial.
As soon as the presiding judge's words fell, Xu Ling said loudly: "Presiding judge, in view of the miserable suffering of the defendant, it is easy for him to be overly sad when he makes a statement, which not only affects the defendant's physical and mental health, but also slows down the progress of the trial.
I have a suggestion that the defendant should no longer verbally talk about his experience of violence, and the defendant can submit in writing to the court the process of domestic violence he has suffered over the years as an answer to this question. β
The presiding judge nodded and replied, "I agree with the prosecutor." Defendant, you don't need to tell how Ye Tianlong has been violent against you over the years, you can submit a written explanation to this court. β
Xu Ling is worthy of being one of the top ten prosecutors, and she is full of ability to control the trial, and when she encountered such difficulties, she immediately thought of a way to deal with it. She used reason to pull the atmosphere of the trial out of grief and prompted the case to continue to be tried normally.
Li Chao glanced at Xu Ling with admiration, and immediately replied: "Defendant Yao Lianhua has written materials about his experience of domestic violence. On the night of Ye Tianlong's unsuccessful election as a public opinion representative, after being severely beaten, Yao Lianhuatong guΓ²wei sent me a letter asking for help, which detailed the situation of domestic violence over the years. At the stage of cross-examination, we will submit it to the court. β
Now that it has achieved the tear-jerking effect and won the sympathy of the court, there is no need for Li Chao to continue to let Yao Lianhua describe her scars to tears.
Yao Lianhua finally didn't have to tell such a tragic story, and the presiding judge, Meng Qingge, was relieved, and immediately said: "Okay, please ask the defense lawyer to move on to the next question." (To be continued......)
