Chapter 357: Black Judge
A nineteen-year-old girl was abused by gangsters and gave birth to a stillborn child, but was sentenced to 30 years in prison by a female judge in accordance with the law?
I don't know if you have heard of the Lonely City, which is a small country located in West Africa, because it is too poor and backward, the size is only about the same size as a normal small town. Pen % fun % Pavilion www.biquge.info
But such a small place, it is full of dangers, and it is one of the most violent countries in the world. Here, gangs are rampant, full of blood and violence, and even the government can't do anything about these people......
And in this environment, nothing is more miserable than ordinary people. Nineteen-year-old Ellie is one of many victims of the murder of civilians by gang members, who are even more miserable and can be violated and beaten at any time.
Nineteen-year-old Ellie was originally an ordinary high school student, and she had lived a normal and peaceful life like other female high school students.
Until one day, a group of gang members appeared in front of her and coerced her into having sex with them with words and force......
Over the next few months, Ellie had been repeatedly assaulted by these gang members, and she had thought about speaking up about it. But her parents are ordinary people, and the government can't help them, so she is afraid of retaliation, so she chooses to continue to compromise......
She reassured herself that as long as she finished high school, she could leave here and break free from this nightmare, which she had never imagined at the time that might never end......
In the days that followed, Ellie went to school as usual, and during that time she often felt a dull pain in her back and abdomen, which she just thought was unwell and didn't care......
However, one day, her stomach was so painful that she hurried to the nearby toilet, and after a long and intense abdominal pain, Ellie was stunned that she had given birth to a baby, but the child was not crying, motionless, and showed no signs of life......
At that time, Ellie found out that she was pregnant. But at that time, she couldn't care about anything else, and after giving birth, she collapsed badly, and she used all her strength to walk home. When the mother saw her haggard daughter, she was overwhelmed and rushed her to the hospital......
Because of the birth, Ellie suffered from urinary tract infections and anemia and was treated in the hospital. At the same time, after understanding the situation, the hospital chose to call the police, and after questioning, the police found the dead fetus in the toilet......
After being violated, she became pregnant, and her child unfortunately died, and Ellie suffered a double blow both physically and mentally. But what she didn't expect was that what awaited her next was a cruel reality......
As soon as she was discharged from the hospital, she was detained by the police, who accused her of killing her child.
According to the results of the investigation, Ellie gave birth at 32 weeks old, which was a premature birth. However, medical examiners cannot determine whether the baby died before or after birth......
But the prosecution believes that Ellie did not want the child, so after she became pregnant, she did not go to prenatal care, deliberately caused her to give birth prematurely, and then threw the child into the toilet.
In the face of accusations, Ellie insisted that she didn't know she was pregnant until the last minute, otherwise she wouldn't risk her life to go to the toilet to give birth, and she said that the baby was dead when she was born......
However, when this evidence was insufficient, the female judge chose to unconditionally believe the prosecution's opinion, arguing that Ellie did not do prenatal care after pregnancy, resulting in the premature birth and death of the child, and sentenced her to 30 years in prison, and at the same time believed that her mother may also be an accomplice......
Ellie never imagined that she was violated and pregnant, was born prematurely and lost her child, and almost lost her life, and after all this, she was sentenced to thirty years in prison.
For a nineteen-year-old girl, her life has been ruined......
In the Lonely City, it is illegal for women to have an abortion, and it is stipulated that women are not allowed to have an abortion under any circumstances. There are five such countries in the world, and it is one of them.
The law of the isolated city stipulates that as long as you are pregnant, you must give birth, even if you are raped, trafficked, and even in situations where your life may be endangered because of childbirth......
If someone is found to have had an abortion, the girls are sentenced to up to 50 years in prison, and the doctor who assisted in the abortion is sentenced to 12 years.
When it comes to childbearing, these girls simply have the right to make their own decisions, and motherhood, which is a joyful thing, has become a shackle and a burden on them......
At the same time, they not only require women to give birth to a child, but also not to have a child aborted and die, and if the child is miscarried due to an accident, it can be sentenced for murder......
However, in this precarious social context, many women do not have access to good antenatal care during pregnancy, and many women suffer from gynaecological diseases due to lack of medical conditions, resulting in miscarriage and even death.
Even if they come back from the ghost gate, they may be accused of murder because of their accidental miscarriage, and they will lose their flesh and blood and be imprisoned, it is hard to imagine how tormented they are inside......
Efforts have long been made to change this status quo and demand an end to this trampling on women's rights, with many women taking to the streets to lash out and resist this inhumane law and call for legalization of abortion. However, the government has not changed the entire law......
However, there is some hope that some women who had been sentenced to prison for miscarriages have their sentences commuted and released, following the calls of relevant groups. But today, Ellie was once again imprisoned for it......
Hearing Ellie's verdict, many people couldn't sit still, and without conclusive evidence, the judge relied on his own subjective judgment to send a girl who was assaulted and pregnant to prison.
The court did not make a verdict based on evidence, but held the child responsible simply because she died, which is not only an insult to women, but also a violation of the law......
People have come out in solidarity with Ellie, demanding that the court give a fair verdict and clear the girl's innocence. However, the government and the courts have chosen to ignore the people's voices, and Ellie is still in prison, desperately waiting for when she will be cleared......
However, Ellie's lawyer and the community have said that they will continue to appeal and support Ellie until she is freed......
The law is supposed to do justice and protect law-abiding citizens from abuse. But people are watching a 19-year-old girl go to jail for a miscarriage while her perpetrators remain at large.
I hope that with the efforts of all parties, Lonely City can repeal this ridiculous law as soon as possible, so that Ellie and the other girls will no longer have to worry about it and live freely in this country.
