Chapter 789: He's My Buddy
On the afternoon of the incident, Kong Shu's friend called Qingbin to ask him to go out for a drink, and the two went to a bar in the county to drink and chat. At about eleven o'clock in the evening, Xiang Qingbin and Kong Shu had drunk a lot of wine and were about to leave the bar.
At the door of the bar, the two met Fu Xingyan, who had already drunk, and Fu Xingyan had drunk with Kong and Xiang, and the three of them knew each other.
Xiang Qingbin saw that Fu Xingyan was alone, and that he had already drunk against the wall, so he became lustful, and discussed with Kong Shu to take Fu Xingyan to the hotel together. Kong Shu knew what it meant as soon as he heard it, as the saying goes, wine is intimidating, and Xiang Qingbin's proposal made him very popular, and under the influence of alcohol, he immediately agreed.
So the two took Fu Xingyan to a nearby chain hotel, and when the front desk of the hotel saw the three of them open, they immediately understood what the three of them meant, this kind of thing is not the first time it has happened, and it will definitely not be the last. After completing the formalities and collecting the money, the front desk gave the room card to Xiang Qingbin.
Xiang and Kong carried Fu Xingyan and entered the room crookedly. The two were ready to take advantage of Fu Xingyan's drunkenness, ignorance, and inability to resist to rape her.
Xiang Qingbin ran to the bathroom to vomit because he drank too much, and asked Kong Shu to go up first. In the process of committing rape against Xingyan, Kong Shu tried many times because he drank too much at night in the bar, but he failed. Then he was humiliated by Xiang Qingbin who came out of the bathroom, and then Xiang Qingbin pounced on Fu Xingyan, and finally got his wish.
After finishing the incident, the two left and left Fu Xingyan alone in the hotel. After Fu Xingyan woke up, she found that she had been insulted, so she reported the case. After the incident, the police retrieved the surveillance video of the hotel and confirmed that the suspects were Xiang Qingbin and Kong Shu. Arrests followed.
After Xiang Qingbin learned that Fu Xingyan had reported the case, he hid and told Kong Shu about the situation. More than an hour before the police entered the door, Kong Shu fled to his classmates in Linxian County with his bag.
After listening to Kong Shu's narration, Du Yong was stunned.
This is no ordinary rape, this is gang rape! According to article 236 of the Criminal Law, a person who gang-rapes two or more persons shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than 10 years, life imprisonment or death.
In the four-on-one gang rape case that was in a uproar in the capital back then, the defendant's father had a good voice, and his family was rich and connected, but the defendant was still sentenced to ten years.
Thinking of this, Du Yong felt a sense of powerlessness in his heart, it seems that his cousin is really going to go in this time, I'm afraid he won't be able to get out in a short time.
"Cousin, I drank too much to ...... at the time, I didn't mean to." Kong Shu whispered with a crying voice.
"It's a boat, it's useless for you to say anything now, you have to turn yourself in, you must turn yourself in. Also, what is that friend of yours coming to, has he been caught? Du Yong's brain was spinning rapidly.
"Xiang Qingbin, he hid, he wasn't caught." Kong Shu replied.
"Do you know where he's hiding?" Du Yong asked.
"I know, but I'm not too sure." Kong Shudao.
"You first go and turn yourself in, and then cooperate with the police to find and arrest him, you can be regarded as a meritorious service. The court will consider the relevant circumstances when sentencing, and there is a high probability that you will be given a lighter punishment. Du Yong said quickly.
"This ......, cousin, he's my buddy, I ...... do this," Kong Shu hesitated.
"You're so stupid! He's taken you to the ditch, you're going to jail soon, what a special buddy! You've been hurt by him, you know?!
I tell you, if you do this, you can be sentenced to death at the highest level, and at least 10 years in prison, you know? You still have a chance to fight for a lighter punishment, if you miss the opportunity and the person surnamed Xiang is arrested first, then he is the one who has made the meritorious service, and no one will be able to save you at that time. Du Yong roared with his mobile phone.
He knew that it was useless to talk to his cousin about policies and benevolence, righteousness and morality at this time, so he could only tell him the most direct and fearful things.
The aunt who was wiping her tears on the side snatched the mobile phone in Du Yong's hand: "Pivot! You must not be confused, your cousin is all for your good......"
After a while, the aunt heard the beeping sound coming from the mobile phone and sat down on the sofa.
"What did he say?" The aunt looked at the aunt and asked.
"He's going to calm down and think about it." The aunt said while wiping her tears with her hands.
"Xiaoyong, I'm sorry for you today. What do you see? "My aunt has never encountered such a big thing in his life, it can be said that it is smooth sailing, and at this time he is already panicking and doesn't know what to do.
"Auntie, aunt, I told him everything I should say, and now only he can save him. Don't worry, after my cousin is arrested, I will help you get a lawyer.
Kong Shu is my cousin, and when something happened to him, I was also very confused. So I'm not going to be able to lead this case, but I'm not going to leave it alone, I'm going to participate in the trial of this case and find experts in the firm who are good at criminal cases to help analyze the case. Du Yong said.
Although he has a good relationship with his cousin, the more intimate he is, the more inconvenient it is for him to provide defense services, which is somewhat similar to whether he is a doctor or not a self-doctor, the more familiar he is, the closer he is, the more difficult the lawyer is to provide legal services, and it is easy to look at the case with preconceived ideas, and it is impossible to objectively and comprehensively analyze the facts of the case, and all this is extremely unfavorable to the final characterization and sentencing of the case.
"Xiaoyong, auntie, thank you. Your cousin's business is all up to you. The aunt said with tears in her eyes.
The aunt wanted to stay with Du Yong for dinner, but the latter was not in the mood at all, and the aunt and the aunt were not in the mood to entertain, so after the talk, Du Yong drove back to the city.
That night, Du Yong took a shower and just wanted to go to sleep in the bedroom, when his aunt-in-law called and told him that his cousin Kong Shu had been arrested by the police at his fellow students.
After Du Yong hung up the phone, he muttered to himself: "Why don't you listen to me and turn yourself in!" ”
The next morning, Aunt Du Yong and her aunt-in-law came to the law firm and went through the entrustment procedures. In the morning, Du Yong discussed with Fang Yi that the lawyer's fee for Kong Shu's case was set at 5,000 yuan, and the fee was paid by Du Yong.
"Lawyer Du, it's not appropriate for this case to be handed over to you. In this way, I will let Zhou Ying host it, and you will assist in it, and now that the public security organs have just arrested someone, you can go to meet with you first and apply for release on bail pending trial. In the office, Fang Yi looked at Du Yong, who was sitting on the sofa opposite, and said.
"Thank you, that's what I mean." Du Yong said: "When the time comes, please give me a check." ”
He originally wanted to ask Fang Yi to handle this case, but the lawyer in his cousin's case did not have much room to play, and Zhou Ying was completely competent.
"Okay, no problem, after you transfer the case file back, let's study the case together." Fang Yi nodded.
"By the way, I still have a case in my hand, I'll bring you the case file in a moment, can you take a look?" Du Yong looked at Fang Yi and asked for his opinion with his eyes.
"No problem. You can bring it, I don't have any arrangements for today, everyone can come and listen to it in the afternoon if they have time. The right to communicate within the team. Fang Yi agreed.
