Chapter 18: Suspicion of Major Crimes
If the defendant Wang Dahai deserved his crimes, Judge Liu Changchun was unfair, and the witness Zhu Yang gave false testimony. Then the defense lawyer Wan Fei should be the most wronged one here, and in the whole process, he just did what he should do as a lawyer.
In the verdict of a major criminal case, many people feel that the evidence is sufficient, and the murderer has pleaded guilty and submitted to the law, and there is no need to hire a defense lawyer for him. In today's judicial process, this idea is very wrong, and the fact that criminals are defended shows that today's judicial process is very fair and transparent.
This is out of the protection of human rights and to achieve a balance between prosecution and defense in the courtroom, which is very necessary, and it is also to prevent unjust, false and wrongful convictions, so that this verdict can stand the test of history, and the result of the judicial trial can be punished for the crime.
Moreover, through the defense lawyer's understanding of the facts of the case, coupled with the course of his long-term communication with the defendant, many details can be learned, especially the defendant's mental journey and psychological changes, which are worthy of in-depth study by criminology and psychology experts to prevent the recurrence of such vicious cases in the future.
Twenty years ago, Wan Fei had just set up his own law firm, and although he was professional, he was a fledgling and had no reputation at all, especially since there were nearly 100 law firms around, and he couldn't get any work tasks at all.
At that time, no one was willing to be a defense lawyer for a murderer, believing that helping a murderer defend a misdemeanor violated conscience and undermined morality.
Only Wan Fei took the initiative to ask Ying to be a defense lawyer for Wang Dahai.
This incident enhanced Wan Fei's reputation and allowed him to open a law firm here for more than 20 years.
Similarly, it was because of this incident that he was killed twenty years later.
Wan Fei was a lawyer whose law firm was open at 8 a.m., and he died between 8 a.m. and 9 a.m. This shows that he met the murderer just after he started business. Judging from the investigation results at the scene, no traces of the fight were found, and Wan Fei did not have any resistance injuries on his body, indicating that the murderer was likely to pretend to come to legal advice and rescue, and anesthetized and killed Wan Fei without any defense. ”
Based on the clues I have so far, I have preliminarily restored the situation at the time of the crime.
"How did the murderer anesthetize him?" Jiang Tingbai immediately asked after hearing this, he had a keen sense of observation of these details and traces.
Su Yumei rubbed her hair, very irritable: "Damn, it's really weird, the forensic doctor didn't find any pinhole marks on the deceased's body." Judging from the environment of the scene, the desk was completely horizontal in the room, leaving only a half-meter pedestrian passage on the side. There is also that table, which is also one meter five wide, under such conditions, even if the murderer suddenly anesthetizes it by covering his mouth and nose, it is impossible for Wan Fei to do it without any defense. ”
Indeed, like the way the bad guy in the film and television drama covers the victim's mouth and nose with a handkerchief and lets him inhale ether to cause a coma, it needs to be extremely sudden, and once the other party reacts, it is impossible to complete the anesthesia coma.
There are no long-distance wounds, no close-range resistance, so how did the murderer suddenly anesthetize Wan Fei?
Is it the smoke like in martial arts novels? But the murderer is also in the room, shouldn't they all be anesthetized?
At this time, Su Yumei received a phone call, which was from the criminal police who were in charge of closely monitoring Wu Junhao: "Team Su, Wu Junhao drove out, we have followed, Wu Junhao didn't find us, his destination is a mental hospital." ”
"Okay, you guys followed, I'll tell the serious crime team, don't lose it for me!" Su Yumei ordered loudly.
She hung up the phone and turned to tell us: "Wu Junhao has gone to An'an's psychiatric hospital." ”
I immediately got up: "Li Meng, follow me to the mental hospital." ”
"Okay." She nodded, got up and went out with me.
With the experience of the last psychiatric hospital investigation, I was familiar with the road and drove straight to Qingfeng Neuropsychological Specialized Hospital where An An was located.
Wu Junhao is currently suspected of committing a major crime, although it does not match the fingerprints left at the scene of the crime, it does not mean that he did not provide anesthetics to the murderer. He also hated these people, Wan Fei's death was the same as he predicted, his tongue was cut out, and it was very likely that it was a case of murder with a knife.
By the time we arrived at An An's psychiatric hospital, Wu Junhao had disappeared, and we learned through the doorman that Wu Junhao had just left in a car just two minutes before we arrived.
Wu Junhao must have come here to see An An, and it is very likely that he will say something to An An, because there is only one person left in the murderer's "justice plan" - the witness Zhu Yang.
I walked in the door and immediately found Liu Xin, An'an's attending physician.
"Did someone come to An An just now?" As soon as we met, I immediately asked him.
Liu Xin blinked and looked at us in a daze: "Yes, someone came to look for An An." ”
Li Meng took out a photo of Wu Junhao from his pocket and asked, "Is this this person?" ”
Liu Xin glanced at the photo and nodded: "That's right, it's him, what's wrong with him?" ”
It seems that apart from the police, everyone does not know that Wu Junhao is an anonymous person who has funded all the expenses of An An for 20 years.
I asked again, "What did this person say to An An after he came?" ”
Liu Xin brought me and Li Meng two chairs, sat down and said, "Just now, this person came to the hospital to look for An An, and I, as An An's attending physician, came forward to talk to him for a few words, and he said that he was a friend of An An and came to visit An An.
Accompanied by me, he met An An, but An An said that he didn't know him, after all, An An still has a relatively serious cognitive impairment, and it is normal not to know him.
But then he actually offered to take An An out of the hospital for recuperation, thinking of the recent case, I had a little more heart, and after sending An An back to the ward, I communicated with him alone.
There are clear regulations in the hospital that if you want to take a patient out of the hospital for recuperation, you need to meet two conditions: first, the guardian must be an immediate family member of the patient, and meet the conditions and ability to take care of the patient after discharge. The second point is that before discharge, the patient's psychological condition must be evaluated by a professional psychologist in the hospital, which is also to prevent the mentally ill from suddenly becoming ill after being discharged from the hospital and causing serious harm, after all, it is still relatively common for the mentally ill to break the law.
This person couldn't prove that he was An An's immediate family member and did not meet the conditions for discharge, and after listening to it, his expression was a little wrong, and he left in a hurry. ”
