Chapter 249: Blind Mention
Nan Zhiyi didn't care about what she was thinking in her heart, and simply said: "This judge still has some friendship with Lao Tian, so you don't have to care, just ask." ”
Ling Li retracted her divergent thoughts, and secretly thought to herself about what to ask for a while.
She asked herself if she didn't have the kind of flexible mind to start with the judge, even if Zhong Zhuowen had wanted to contact the judge through her channel here to see if there was a way to get her father out of trouble, Ling Li also adhered to the principle and refused to compromise.
However, when it came to her family, she was spinelessly shaken. knew that this was not in accordance with the rules, and knew that it would make Nan Zhiyi and Tian Zhengyan embarrassed, but she moved her mind.
She quietly asked Nan Zhiyi again: "Is it easy to meet the judge?" ”
"Of course." He glanced at her proudly, "Compared to me, who has the right to speak, you can't stand up to a word of me in ten sentences." Don't hurry up and please me! Or next time I won't be running for you! ”
I don't know why the words "promise each other with your body" popped out of her head, Ling Li quickly gathered her mind, but her earlobes secretly turned red.
After the appointed time, Chandy did not show up.
It seems that the other party did not show up for the appointment on time, and I don't know if he was late or completely missed the appointment.
After waiting for about half an hour, when Nan Zhiyi finished eating the third plate of peach crisp, Judge Qian was finally late.
Ling Li recognized Qian Di who answered her questions outside the court last year, she hadn't changed much, but she was still wearing sunglasses when it was almost dusk, and she looked a little weird on a hot day.
Ling Li pursed her lips and smiled, it seems that she is not the only one with a weak heart.
After Qian Di sat down and took off his sunglasses, he first greeted Nan Zhiyi: "Hello, Professor Nan." The child's teacher notified me that there was something wrong and rushed to deal with it, sorry for being late. ”
After that, her eyes fell on Nan Zhiyi and she couldn't take her eyes off anymore, and sighed for a long time: "It's really similar." ”
As for who Nan Zhiyi looks like, it is naturally self-evident.
The degree of similarity between the two brothers Nan Zhiyi and Nan Zhijun is that even people who don't know them at all can be sure that the two must be related by blood, not to mention that someone informed them in advance that they came to see Nanyuan's younger brother.
It's just that Qian Di and he can't fight each other, not even acquaintances, Nan Zhiyi is not easy to get angry, only nodded lightly and looked cold with a shelf.
Qian Di was not entangled in his attitude, he smiled slightly and turned his head to look at Ling Li, his eyes flashed slightly, and he tilted his head thoughtfully.
After a while, she asked: "Zhong Chengheng was found not guilty that day, aren't you the girl who asked me questions outside the court?" ”
Ling Li was shocked by her memory, and nodded subconsciously.
"It turns out that you are a family member of the victim. A teenage girl, you have to go through this great change at a young age, and you must have had a hard time these years. ”
The more she said this, the more she spoke, the more her expression softened: "You didn't sink but became a lawyer." We are all people in this business, and when we embark on this path, it means that reason must prevail over emotion, and it means that we must strictly follow the established rules of the game. I don't need to say much about some scenes, you naturally understand, this exchange between me and you is basically a violation, and some words you will forget after hearing them, as if we never met today. ”
Ling Li nodded very understandingly. There is such a thing as revealing the details of the trial of the case, whether it is big or small, but if it is known by people who don't like Qian Di, once it makes a big fuss, it will definitely be a matter of ruthlessness.
"First of all, you asked me the question that day, about whether Zhong Chengheng is the murderer. My answer is that the judge is not a god, and there is no way to go back to the scene at the time of the crime, but to make a judgment on the evidence in the case. Now, I still have this opinion, but in light of the changes that have taken place in the current case, I am more inclined to have another murderer in this case. ”
After listening to Qian Di's words, Ling Li's heart suddenly clenched.
Everyone seemed to think so, and almost all of them pointed their suspicions at her father. I don't know what Qian Di, who directly handles the case, will think?
Given some time for Ling Li to digest her words, half a minute later, Chandy expressed his opinion without reservation: "I know that there is a tendency within the police to believe that your father's suicide is the source of this tragedy. I have reservations about this view, and I do not approve of it or oppose it. ”
Ling Li perked up and listened to Qian Di continue: "The criminal law is cold, and there is no evidence to prove that there is, and there is no evidence to prove that there is not, and the doubtful interests belong to the defendant. But, as a living person, I don't think so. ”
In the end, she hooked the corners of her mouth: "To tell you, I am also very concerned about the truth of this case, of course, I do not approve of you using your own strength to seek clues, but if you work hard from the opposite direction of the current investigation of the police, it is not a way out." ”
Ling Li raised her head in surprise. Judges have always been in the position of the middle judge, not biased to listen to and believe partially, and completely rely on the evidence in their hands and the law to make judgments.
Xu is her expression was too obvious, and Qian Di hooked the corners of his mouth to say his position: "Not as a referee, but as a person." There were four victims in this case, including a minor, and you were left alone. I think you should understand how I, as a natural person, want to do justice. ”
A few simple words showed her attitude, and Ling Li nodded.
"As you said, putting aside the eight years of tossing back and forth in this case, and putting aside all the influence of public opinion, I don't think that Zhong Chengheng is the murderer."
First of all, from the analysis of Zhong Chengheng's background, he would not choose such an unskilled method to kill people. Second, the police did not find the source of the poison that year, and there was no evidence that Chung had ever purchased rat poison. Finally, there is another point that I pay special attention to when this case is filed, which you cannot see in the verdict. ”
Speaking of this, she paused slightly: "Do you know what blind mention is? ”
This unfamiliar word made Ling Li stunned, and after searching for a circle in his mind, he really had no impression, and immediately shook his head.
"Actually, I don't know too much." Qian Di took a sip of tea and continued: "I asked the people who were engaged in criminal investigation, and they told me that blind mention is a new type of technology that extracts clues such as DNA that may be related to the case in a random place at the scene of the case. ”
Ling Li's reaction was quite fast, and she immediately asked: "Is blind mention used in this case?" ”
Chandy nodded: "Not only did I use blind mention, but because of blind mention, I almost got into a big trouble." ”
"How?" Her heart tightened, and she subconsciously felt that this thing was not ordinary.
"On a leaf in your yard, a person's DNA was extracted. After testing, what exactly is this DAN, because the biological information that the sample can provide is limited and the technology is limited, the only thing that can be determined is that the owner of this DNA is a man. ”
Ling Li was still fainting, and Nan Zhiyi had already asked the key question on her behalf: "Do you compare it with the people who often come and go around you?" Also, what kind of scene is the place where the DNA is extracted? ”
"From the case file information, it has been compared back then, and no one is consistent with the DNA, that is, it is not the people who live in the surrounding area who left traces." Chandy shook his head regretfully.
"Also, the leaves had fallen from a tree outside the courtyard, specifically from a broken branch. Judging from the scars from the broken branches, the branches were about 1.5 meters above the ground. Why it broke, it is not known at this time. ”
"One and a half meters?" Nan Zhiyi hugged his arms and pondered, and after a while, he also shook his head regretfully, "If you sneeze and cough twice, the saliva can get on it." There are so many possibilities that it's no wonder no one is making much of a fuss about it. ”
Say it's not high, it's not short, it's the distance that ordinary people can touch as soon as they raise their hands.
No wonder Chandy said that he almost got into trouble, the DNA of an unknown person appeared at the scene, located on a branch 1.5 meters above the ground, and it was impossible to find who the person who left the trace, and it was impossible to confirm whether this person had been to the scene that day. I compared it with my neighbors and patients who often go to the clinic, and my DNA does not match.
If someone delves into this, it's really a bit of a problem.
"So the police made it fuzzy, because the place is only separated from the public place by a wall, so it is not the focus of the investigation, but it was mentioned in the earliest on-site inspection records, and the next few records did not mention this." Chandy said.
"Judge Qian, why are you paying special attention to this matter?" Ling Li asked.
For the crime scene, she actually has a more intuitive feeling than Chandy.
The trees in her backyard that leaned against the wall, she was still more impressed, the trunks and branches had thorns, in fact, it was not easy to climb, and if someone wanted to land on the wall, what was waiting for him was a cage of thorny roses, which was actually quite safe.
But she had no idea which tree had broken its branches.
Back to the DNA that couldn't find its owner. Outside the wall is a narrow path, less than a meter wide, and there are usually many pedestrians, and Nanzhiyi said it very clearly.
Even if you don't touch the leaves, you can get some DNA by sneezing, not to mention that there are people coming and going, and it is not surprising that there is a DNA left by a stranger.
However, because of this reason, Qian Di was even more uncertain that Zhong Chengheng was the real murderer, so he made a not-guilty verdict.
Regarding Ling Li's question, Qian Di did not answer immediately, but was silent for a while.
After waiting patiently, Ling Li heard the answer.
"To be honest, I've been in the industry for more than ten years, and I'm almost numb to handle criminal cases. I have seen the most cruel methods of criminals, and the thousands of strange cases I have handled, some of which are only afraid that ordinary people have never heard of, and they are more wonderful to say than novels. I am a little more sensitive to the unusual parts of the case, and I have also caught a lot of cases that are indeed problematic, and often the conclusions of those cases that are investigated again coincide with my suspicions. ”
Qian Di continued to express his opinions: "From a professional point of view, I studied the criminal investigation direction of criminal procedure law in college and graduate school, and I have been practicing for nearly 15 years. And from a non-professional point of view, this is probably due to a woman's intuition.
In short, the DNA of the owner cannot be found in this case, it is an unanswered question in my heart, and there is no condition to figure it out now, which does not mean that there will be no technology to figure it out in the future, I have doubts in my heart, so I pay special attention. In addition, this case is full of doubts, so naturally a not-guilty verdict was made. ”
Ling Li frowned and pondered, she couldn't say anything useful at this time, she just thanked her again and again.
