"The prosecutor may interrogate the defendant about the facts of the crime charged in the indictment." The presiding judge said.

"Okay, Presiding Judge." The prosecutor looked at Feng Yongtong in the dock and asked, "Defendant Feng Yongtong, do you know the victims Ma Wanping and Nie Xiaoqin?" ”

"Yes, we both sell meat in the vegetable market, and the two meat stalls are next to each other." Feng Yongtong looked at the floor in front of him with a blank gaze and said.

"On the day of the crime, the victim asked you to take Nie Xiaoqin to see a doctor, what did you do?" The prosecutor looked at the defendant and asked.

……

The prosecutor interrogated the victim about the incident, but did not ask why the victim came to Feng's meat stall to find the defendant Feng Yongtong.

Fang Yi listened quietly, slowly frowned, the prosecutor's interrogation could easily make the third party who did not know the situation think that the defendant and the victim had a dispute over the sale of mutton, and then beat each other, and then the victim asked the defendant to take him to the hospital to see a doctor, but the defendant refused. The two sides were so violent that the defendant killed the victim with a knife.

The procurator's questioning did not reflect the victim's repeated entanglement, nor did it reflect the defendant's helplessness, which was very unfavorable to the defendant's sentencing.

"Does the defendant's advocate need to ask questions of the defendant?" The presiding judge looked at Fang Yi and asked.

"Questions." After finishing speaking, Fang Yi looked at Feng Yongtong and asked, "Defendant Feng Yongtong, on the day of the crime, why did the victim come to the meat stall to ask you to go to the hospital to see a doctor?" ”

"My daughter-in-law Yuan Qingxiu and Nie Xiaoqin had a fight because of selling mutton, and my daughter-in-law injured her." Feng Yongtong's face was still blank, but his eyes flashed slightly.

"Do you know how badly the victim Nie Xiaoqin was injured? Did your lover get hurt during the fight? Fang Yi asked.

"Nie Xiaoqin was only scratched and bruised, slightly injured. My daughter-in-law was also injured, and the situation was similar to hers. Feng Yongtong looked up at Fang Yi and said.

"How do you know?" Fang Yi asked.

"The police gave the two of them an appraisal, and later I took Nie Xiaoqin to the People's Hospital for examination." Feng Yongtong's mechanical answer.

"What are the results of the examination? How many times have you been to the hospital? Fang Yi continued to chase.

"I went to the People's Hospital twice, and the doctor said that Nie Xiaoqin's body was normal." Feng Yongtong replied, tears welling up in his eyes.

"You took the victim to the hospital twice before, and this time the victim asked you to go to the hospital again, why didn't you go?" Fang Yi asked.

"Because I know that they are deliberately finding fault, they just don't want me to run a meat stall in a down-to-earth manner, and they want to disrupt my family's business and retaliate against me." Feng Yongtong's eyes suddenly became sharp, and he gritted his back molars and said.

"How did you know that the victim was deliberately finding fault?" Fang Yi then asked.

"I took Nie Xiaoqin to the hospital twice, spent thousands of yuan for a full body examination, and the results of both examinations were normal, and they still had to take her to the hospital.

I asked Ma Wanping if he was still finished, and he told me that if I wanted to solve the problem, I had to give him 200,000 yuan, and if I gave him money, he wouldn't trouble me, otherwise he would keep pestering me and make me unable to do business.

Two hundred thousand! How much money do I make a year, I have an elderly man in his sixties at home, and a child in junior high school, he wants my life! You say...... Let you say what should I do? Feng Yongtong's eyes were red, and he was shouting.

"Have you ever thought about calling the police or going to court to sue the victim?" Fang Yi was silent for a moment and asked.

"Hehe, is it useful to call the police, I have looked for the police station next to the vegetable market, and the police asked me to go to the court, but they can't solve it.

It takes time to go to court to file a lawsuit, it takes several months, and in the end the court can only give me a piece of paper, can that paper solve a real problem? Do I want to do business these months, I have a family to raise! Feng Yongtong was a little excited, and looked at Fang Yi with tears in his eyes.

Seeing that the defendant's emotions were released, Fang Yi did not continue to ask questions, and turned his head to look at the presiding judge: "Presiding judge, the defender has finished asking." ”

"Now that the evidence is presented and cross-examined, do the prosecutors, defenders, and defendants have any new evidence to provide?" The presiding judge asked.

"There is no new evidence." The three parties replied.

The evidence submitted by the prosecutor includes the records of the inquest at the scene, the defendant's arrest, the defendant's confession, the murder weapon, the deboning knife, the autopsy report, and so on.

Both the defendant and Fang Yi agreed with the evidence provided by the prosecutor.

Previously, Fang Yi applied to the court to go to the People's Hospital to obtain the victim's medical records to support the defendant's statement. The prosecutor did not contest the evidence.

Subsequently, the court presented a letter from the village and the vegetable market management department requesting the court to give a lighter punishment, as well as a certificate jointly issued by the merchants to prove the circumstances before and after the incident. The procurator believes that the above-mentioned documents cannot be used as statutory evidence for the conviction and sentencing of this case.

"The facts of this case have been investigated, the court investigation has been completed, and the court arguments are now begining. Court debates revolve around disputed facts that have not been certified by the court and how the law should be applied based on the facts.

The prosecutor will speak first. The presiding judge said expressionlessly.

"Presiding Judge and Judge: ...... The prosecutor believes that although the victim was at fault, the defendant Feng Yongtong took revenge on the victim by using the criminal method of depriving others of their lives, and committed murder with a knife, killing one person and seriously injuring another, and his conduct constituted the crime of intentional homicide.

In view of the fact that the defendant committed murder in a public place, the circumstances were heinous, the methods were cruel, and the social impact was extremely bad, we recommend that he be sentenced to death and executed immediately. Complete. The inspector said coldly.

The procurator's sentencing recommendation was similar to what Fang Yi had guessed, one death and one serious injury, whether out of duty or prudence, the procuratorate would strictly recommend the sentence.

……

"The defendant's defender gives his defense opinion." The presiding judge said.

Fang Yi picked up the prepared defense opinions and said: "Presiding Judge and Judge: Before I express my defense opinions, please allow me to express my deep condolences to Ma Wanping, the victim of this case, and express great sympathy and condolences to the victim's relatives.

The defender has no objection to the prosecution's accusation that the defendant is guilty of intentional wounding. The defender believes that the public prosecution's characterization of this case is accurate and the law applied correctly, but there are some special circumstances in this case, and the collegial panel is requested to fully consider them when convicting and sentencing.

The defender believes that the victims, Ma Wanping and Nie Xiaoqin, are at fault for the occurrence of this case, and the defendants should not be sentenced to death and should be executed immediately. Here's why:

This case is an intentional homicide case caused by the intensification of conflicts between production and life. There was no conflict between the defendant Feng Yongtong and the victims, Ma Wanping and Nie Xiaoqin, but disputes arose because of competition, and because the two parties did not handle the contradictions in a timely manner, the contradictions intensified, and then the evil acts of killing and injuring people occurred. ”
