298 Is the sentence heavy (one watch)
In the puzzled eyes of everyone, Mao Mengshi took over a burden from his mother-in-law.
She opened her baggage, and the sound of gasping cold air could be heard all around.
"My lord, this is the clothes that Meng Changping wore nine years ago, when he killed Mao Runqing, there are blood stains on them." Mao Mengshi picked up a gray short coat and shook it open, and sure enough, he saw blood splatters on the placket.
"This is the clothes that Meng Changping killed Zhang Rong six years ago."
"This is the dress that Meng Changping killed Chu Xingfei three years ago."
Mao Mengshi solemnly put the three bloody clothes on the ground, and said: "These are the shoes that I wore when I entered the mountain at that time, and there are blood spots on the backs of the shoes, and there are mud on the soles of the feet. ”
"What the woman said above is true, and these evidences can also be guaranteed with her life, and there is absolutely no adulteration."
Saying that, he pulled his younger brother together, kowtowed to Song Ning, and turned his head to kowtow to heaven and earth: "It's me who is confused, I did something wrong in this life, and I will be a cow and a horse knot in the next life to repay my sins." ”
"I'm confused, I won't dare in the future." Meng Changping parroted like an authentic person.
"Please be discerning, my lords, take pity on my brother's stupidity and kindness, and spare his life!"
"I'm stupid, spare my life." Meng Changping said.
The two sisters and brothers kowtowed, and the public hall was silent inside and outside, countless pairs of eyes looked at them, and they were speechless.
They looked at Meng Changping's tall figure and Mao Meng's guilty face and only felt pitiful, the sister and brother had been abused since childhood, and after the younger brother was stupid, he always remembered the bits and pieces of the night his mother died.
All the people he killed were like his father.
Whether it was Mao Runqing nine years ago or Ye Yong now, they all deserve to die.
"It's pathetic." A woman wiped her tears and said.
Song Ning came out from behind the table, picked up the three bloody clothes on the ground and checked them, and handed them to Song Yuanshi.
She stopped in front of Meng Changping and asked, "Do you know why you are kneeling here?" ”
"Yes." Meng Changping looked up at Song Ning and said, "Your Excellency has found the person who was buried, hasn't you?" ”
Song Ning bowed his head: "I have found it a long time ago, someone has already been convicted of the murderer and beheaded." ”
Meng Changping looked at her in surprise: "But, but I hammered people to death, why were others beheaded?" ”
"My lord, I am mistaken, you are mistaken." Meng Changping grabbed the hem of Song Ning's clothes, "Don't cut other people's, it's mine that killed them." ”
Song Ning bowed his head: "Someone was beheaded, this responsibility is not all on you, the adults will settle accounts with them." ”
"But you're also responsible."
Meng Changping nodded.
"They beat people, it's terrible. Hit the head with a long stick, and the blood could not be suppressed. They're all bad guys. ”
Song Ning asked, "So, you also hit them on the head with something, right?" ”
Meng Changping was stunned for a moment, obviously not thinking about this question, he looked at Song Ning suspiciously, shook his head and said, "No, it's different, I, I beat them and they beat me...... It's not the same. ”
"How is it different?" Song Ning asked him.
Meng Changping couldn't figure it out, shook his head and said, "It's just different." As he spoke, he asked his sister again, "It's just different, sister, it's just different." ”
"Yes, yes, it's different." Mao Mengshi hugged Meng Changping and calmed his emotions, "Sister knows it's different. ”
Meng Changping's mood calmed down.
Mao Mengshi looked at Song Ning pleadingly.
Song Ning got up, stood in the public hall with his hands in his hands, and looked out of the door without making a sound.
Someone asked in a low voice: "The adults won't behead Meng Changping's sister and brother, right?" ”
"Wouldn't it? If this is a martial arts romance, Meng Changping is a chivalrous man. ”
"Yes, yes, the people will be punished for eliminating harm, and if something happens in the future, who will dare to come forward."
Everyone discussed softly.
Outside the crowd, Zhou He whispered to Cheng Zhi: "He may lose the hearts of the people in this case." ”
"Yes." Cheng Zhi sneered, "According to his style of being a good looking and pretending to be an official, this case is really a drama for him." ”
The case was sentenced to beheading, but the parties in Meng Changping's case did not have bad people. The common people do not understand the law, they look at justice and injustice, and only look at whether you stand on the side of the people, whether they are biased towards them, and strive for their interests.
The four people killed by Meng Changping, although they killed three wronged murderers, this was not Meng Changping's fault, but the fault of the yamen at that time, how could the fault of the yamen be Meng Changping?
What's more, Meng Changping is still a delirious person, how can he be sentenced to beheading?
But if the sentence is light, then even if it is a wicked person, it is human life, and to let go of their sister and brother so easily is to blaspheme the law and disrespect human life.
is that he is not worthy of sitting in this position, and he is essentially similar to Master Ma who tortured to extract a confession just to close the case.
"That's not what a good officer does." Cheng Zhidao.
In court, Shan Kai was also a little nervous, this case is not difficult to judge, the murderer's sister and brother have all pleaded guilty, and it is good to sentence as usual, after all, Zhou Law does not stipulate that a person who is delirious is not responsible for killing. What's more, Meng Changping was not a complete kill.
For nine years in a row, he killed four people using the same methods and methods of disposing of corpses.
How can it be stupid?
But...... It's really sentenced, and the rest of the matter is not easy to handle.
Especially under the premise that Song Shi'an still wants to crush Longxingda and re-save the prestige of the Torture Hall.
If you lose the support of the people, you will lose all your achievements.
It's not easy.
Just as everyone was thinking wildly, a startle sounded.
Syllable!
Song Ning stood behind the table, looked at Meng Changping and said: "Meng Changping, you have bloody clothes as evidence, and your sister and brother have confessed their guilt, can you confess to the four cases you committed?!" ”
Meng Changping said that he killed his father, and the case was not interrogated in this hall, and Song Ning did not plan to mention it now.
"I plead guilty." Meng Changping raised his hand and said, "My lord, I killed those people, and they have nothing to do with my sister." ”
"Hmm...... It has nothing to do with others, so don't make a mistake, my lord. ”
Song Jingjing looked at Meng Changping quietly, he looked ignorant, as if he understood but didn't understand anything, his eyes were completely fearless.
She nodded and said, "Your Excellency didn't make a mistake. ”
Meng Changping smiled at Song Ning.
"Meng Changping, listen to the judgment!"
"In!" Meng Changping said.
Song Ning looked at him and said word by word: "The murderer Meng Changping, on August 13, the fifteenth year of Tianquan, killed Mao Runqing, a villager of Maojiazhuang, in Ziyun Mountain, on August 11, the eighteenth year of Tianquan, killed Zhang Rong, a villager of Zhangjiazhuang, and Tianquan for twenty-one years, killed Chu Xingfei, a villager of Luocun Village, and on February 26 of the first year of Pingyuan, he killed Ye Yong, a villager of Guozizhuang. ”
"In the four cases, the bloody clothes provided by his sister Mao Mengshi are evidence, Meng Changping confessed to the crime, and now the official sentenced Meng Changping to be executed in court."
"His sister Mao Mengshi was sentenced to three years in prison because she had helped her conceal and deceive her for many years, but because she had an excellent attitude in admitting guilt and provided evidence in this case, she was given a light sentence of three years in prison."
When her words fell, the court was very quiet, and Mao Yuan suddenly pounced on Meng Changping and hugged Meng Changping: "Uncle, I hurt you, I shouldn't have said so many things to adults." ”
"I hurt you, I shouldn't have told you about Yue'er being beaten by her father."
Mao Yuan cried, Meng Changping hugged his little niece, and replied: "It's not your fault, it was originally what I did, and the adults didn't check the mistake." ”
"I'm going to help Yue'er, let's say okay, right, if you don't save Yue'er, Yue'er will die."
"But...... But I can't bear my uncle. ”
Meng Changping hugged Mao Yuan and cried: "I, I can't bear Yuanyuan." ”
As soon as they cried, only Mao Meng's and Mao Tian's mother-in-law and daughter-in-law were accompanied by them in the court, but there was a whimpering cry at the door.
Someone shouted, "My lord, your judgment is unfair, he is doing harm to the people." ”
"Those who were killed deserve to die."
"How can you sentence the beheading, you can sentence the most beheaded."
"And Mao Mengshi, it makes sense for her to conceal this, it is her younger brother who brought it up, she is right to deceive, not to mention that she does not have no conscience at all, she also keeps the bloody clothes she wore when she killed people."
"Without these three bloody clothes, you wouldn't have been able to solve the case."
There is a commotion at the door, you say a word to me, if it is replaced by another official, the cabbage gang stinky shoes and faint officials will be thrown up and scolded.
Because it was Song Ning, at this moment, they remembered their previous friendship, but they still endured it.
"Besides, the three wronged murderers have nothing to do with Meng Changping, so the adults should sentence the officials who previously judged the case together."
Someone chimed in: "Yes, why is it still on Meng Changping's body." ”
"Shut up!" Shen Wenyu scolded, "This is a public court, and irrelevant personnel are not allowed to make noise." ”
Everyone was stunned by him, but it was just a moment, and someone shouted: "My lord, you speak." ”
"Say what?" Song Ning walked to the door and looked at the people who were looking at her with puzzled and disappointed eyes, "Say Meng Changping is innocent?" ”
Some people nodded, some shook their heads, and some said: "You can't say you're innocent, but your sentence in this case is too heavy." ”
"You say, how does this official judge?"
The man choked when he was asked, and someone said: "Let's behead, just let the court decide on it." ”
"Okay, I'll take off the official robe and give it to you, and you will judge?"
The man's face turned pale, and he was immediately embarrassed. The people around looked disappointed, thinking that today's Lord Song was not humorous and funny, and he looked like a faint official.
"Say that the sentence is heavy, and think about it, the lives of the four deceased?" Song Ning asked rhetorically, "Four lives, isn't it worth a sentence of execution?" ”
Someone retorted: "But those four deserve to die." ”
