"What about your old man?" Du Yong's heart moved.

"The old man didn't move, but he definitely can't go back home." Guan Jibao sighed: "Nowadays, every family is a child, and the country doesn't let you ask for more, whose child is not a treasure." I don't resent Guan Yuefeng, I only hate myself for giving birth to a murderer.

But no matter how much I hate him, he is also my son, and I still have to take care of him. The people in our village don't understand any big truths, but I understand the truth of killing people to pay for their lives.

The two of us have been running to law firms a lot during this time, and we have also met a lot of lawyers, but whenever possible...... I would like to ask you to ...... Let's see if we can find a way to spare his life, with an indefinite sentence or a suspended death. As he spoke, Guan Jibao's tears fell like pearls with broken threads.

His daughter-in-law Zhang Shuilan also cried.

"Is the case now in the prosecutor's office or in the court?" Du Yong asked after a moment of silence.

"In the courthouse." Guan Jibao replied.

"Mr. Guan, let me tell you the truth, if there is no statutory lenient punishment in this case, I am afraid that it will ......, we can only do our best, and people may not be able to save it." Du Yong frowned and told the truth.

Even the defendant's parents knew that murder paid for life, and their son's life might not be guaranteed, Du Yong felt that it was better to tell the truth, and there was no need to beat around the bush, so it seemed more honest. He believed that the couple in front of him must have known that their son's life was very likely to be unsaved before commissioning, and the reason why they came to commission it was to try it, hoping for a miracle.

Before, the opinions given by the lawyers Guan Jibao met were really not optimistic, and the lawyers with black hearts wanted to make some money, but Guan Jibao had no money and couldn't get much lawyer fees at all, so the lawyers who had the heart to fool some money didn't like to answer the two of them.

In desperation, Guan Jibao heard that Fang Yi's team specialized in criminal cases, and many death penalty cases ended up with good results, so he wanted to use a dead horse as a live horse doctor.

Xie Youhe felt that his son's case had little hope, so he went through the procedure, so he only charged him 6,000 yuan in legal fees and transferred the case to Du Yong.

In fact, in cases like Guan Jiang, the defendant is very likely to be sentenced to death, even if Guan Jibao does not retain a lawyer, the court will appoint a lawyer to defend him, but Guan Jibao is unwilling.

Guan Jibao listened to Du Yong's words and nodded.

"We will do our best, and in the next two days we will go to the file and go to the detention center to meet your son. When the defense plan is decided, I will call you again and ask you to come over. Du Yong said.

Guan Jibao nodded, and he could only do this first, and the husband and wife left the law firm.

Du Yong and Yun Qiao chatted as they walked back.

"Lawyer Du, do you say that if the defendant didn't kill anyone, but just rummaged through boxes and cabinets to find money, would he be sentenced in the end?" Yun Qiao thought for a while and asked.

"I don't think the defendant is guilty of a crime if it's just stealing.

According to Guan Jibao's description, his son's theft, in fact, was minor and harmless, and he did not steal money, which was an attempt, and may not be recognized as a crime.

I remember that in March 1998, the Supreme People's Court promulgated the Interpretation of the Supreme People's Court on Several Issues Concerning the Specific Application of Law in Handling Theft Cases, which stipulates that "if the circumstances are serious, such as the theft of a huge amount of property or precious cultural relics of the state, the person shall be convicted and punished." ”

Combined with the specific circumstances of this case, the defendant Guan Jiang went to the homes of villagers in the same village to steal property, and he did not have a clear target for the theft, and the family that was stolen was also an ordinary farmer, and the family conditions were not very good, so the amount of theft by the defendant should not be huge.

Moreover, the defendant did not take the property of the victim's family after killing the victim, so his theft may not be found to be a crime. Du Yong stopped and said.

"Well, I've already made an appointment to meet at the detention center, and tomorrow morning at half past nine." Yun Qiao said.

"Okay, the county detention center is far away, you wait for me downstairs at eight o'clock, I'll pick you up by car, let's go directly." Du Yong said.

"Okay!" Yun Qiao said with a smile.

During this time, Fang Yi has been busy with Yun Mei's marriage and banquet, and it is the end of the year, so Fang Yi is relatively busy and has not taken on many cases, so when Yun Qiao is fine, he will follow Zhou Ying and Du Yong to handle the case.

The relationship between everyone is good, so if there is a case to be held, Zhou Ying and others will also ask Yun Qiao to go together.

Early the next morning, with a bitter cold wind, Du Yong and Yun Qiao wrapped in down jackets, shrunk their necks, lined up to enter the detention center, and began to go through the meeting procedures.

More than twenty minutes later, Guan Jiang was brought over. Guan Jiang looks a lot like his mother, his body is very strong, and he looks quite energetic. He recounted the incident.

"Have you seen someone from the prosecutor's office?" Du Yong asked.

"I've seen it." Guan Jiang lowered his head and looked a little dazed.

"Why did you kill Guan Tong at that time?" Du Yong asked.

"I was afraid that he would shout out, I was very scared at the time, they were all ...... of the same village" Guan Jiang looked up at Du Yong, his eyes full of fear.

"Guan Tong's family is not richer than your family, why did you choose his family?" Du Yong then asked.

"I didn't want to steal his house at that time, but when I came home at noon and passed by his house, I saw that the door of his house was locked and the courtyard wall was low.

At first, I thought there was no one in his house, but when I entered the house, I found that Guan Tong was sleeping on the bed, and I knocked over the thermos and woke him up. But I wanted to run, but my legs didn't obey, and then I ......" Guan Jiang lowered his head again, stretched out his hand and wiped his tears.

"Lawyer Du, do I have to pay for my life?!" Guan Jiang looked up sharply and asked.

“…… There are some things that you have to bear the consequences of doing them. Du Yong was silent for a moment and said.

Du Yong and Yun Qiao left the detention center and returned to the city, Guan Jiang's case may be sentenced to death, so the court of first instance is the intermediate court, and the case file has been transferred to the intermediate court, so they have to go to the intermediate court to read the file.

Before the New Year's Day holiday, Du Yong received a notice from the Intermediate People's Court that the Guan Jiang murder case would be tried on Thursday, the first week after the New Year's Day holiday.

Yun Mei and Fang Yi discussed going to the Yun family in the south to set up a banquet, and there were more customers who needed to move around at the end of the year, so they were both very busy recently.

Originally, Fang Yi and his family wanted to invite Li Shuming to drink, but Li Shuming had already gone abroad to reunite with his wife and daughter, so they didn't make an appointment.

"Master, it's going to be a holiday soon, do you want to get some benefits for everyone?" Yun Qiao sat opposite Fang Yi and asked with a hippie smile.

"Well, you have to be prepared. In this way, you prepare a shopping card of 500 yuan for each person, which is considered a benefit for everyone by the team.

In addition, the boss is said to have prepared some gifts for everyone, a bucket of peanut oil and two chickens per person. Tomorrow your sister and I will go to the south, and the tickets are booked.

Before doing errands, there was a lot of vegetables and meat left at home, you can give my share directly to Yu Wendong, his family is not rich. Fang Yi thought for a while. (End of chapter)
