Chapter 88 The Righteous Judgment
It was chilly spring, and the soil outside the county town was still as hard as iron plates. The suspect in handcuffs pointed at a place. The excavator started working and dug out the shallow-buried Cui Liang with a shovel.
Not far away, in front of the camera, a chubby male reporter wearing a red jacket was talking with a microphone: "The forensic doctor verified that the body in the body bag was indeed a murderer Cui Liang. Why is a prisoner who should have served his sentence in prison strangely appearing in the wasteland in the suburbs? Please see the next report of Fasheng Life."
It has been a week since the reporter of the Provincial TV Legal Channel followed up on the case. The interview in Beihe County made him full of grief and heroism. As the case was digging step by step, more inside stories were revealed. The Cui family was full of evil and was hard to write about. Killing people was just the tip of the iceberg. Cui Laosi harmed the village and killed dogs with poison needles was just his hobby. His main business was to steal and open a casino. I don’t know how many people he harmed over the years. Cui Laosan, a county cadre, acted as a protective umbrella for relatives. He had his shadow behind every evil deed. Cui Laoer was the deputy township chief. He once beat a petitioner to death, but later he fooled it easily. Now the victim appealed again. The case was exposed. During his tenure as the village director, Cui Laosan engaged in election fraud, embezzled public funds in the village, bullying men and women, and had a lot of bad deeds.
The day after the Cui family was wiped out, on the first day of the Lunar New Year, according to statistics, the consumption of firecrackers in Cuizhai Village exceeded the consumption of the previous year, which shows that the villagers who were bullied by the Cui family bullies expressed their joy by using the form of firecrackers.
In Cuizhai Village and even Beihe County, public opinion has one-sided support for the Liu Kunlun murder case. It is said that the murderer is a hero, a hero, and is to eliminate harm for the people. This aroused great interest from the reporter. Who is Liu Kunlun? How could he become a high-level paraplegic? The reporter launched an investigation.
In front of the camera is Ma Qianli, a retired employee of Jinqiao Market. Lao Ma sighed and said, "Xiao Liu has always had a strong sense of justice, loves to stand up for justice, and likes to learn from Lei Feng to do good deeds..."
Criminal Policeman Zhang Xiangyu talked in front of the camera: "Liu Kunlun is a security officer. He usually cooperates closely with the police and has helped us solve major cases. His disability is also caused by injury when fighting against criminals..."
The merchant Luo Xiaomei said emotionally: "It rained heavily that day, and our orphan and widowed mother came to the big market to find a job. It was Liu Kunlun who was busy and heard that the child had not eaten, so he paid for us to have a meal..."
Jin Tianswan's general manager Lu Gang said: "Liu Kunlun is an excellent employee of my unit. He never comes late or leaves early. He is willing to help others and is proactive. If it is not for his poor health, he would be the secretary of the Youth League branch of the unit."
Merchant Gao Junling said: "With Liu Kunlun here, we feel safe."
In front of the long-distance bus station *Maimaiti gave a thumbs up: "Liu Kunlun, Yaxi!"
Liu Kunlun's image gradually became taller in the minds of the reporter. He reported the program he worked hard to make, but the station did not approve it. The reporter went to ask for an explanation. The director said that the above said that he would handle it in a low-key manner and stop hyping up public opinion.
...
Liu Kunlun's life in the detention center was much better. He was a prisoner who was paid attention to by the senior management. In addition, Director Li had just been arrested, and no one in the institute dared to make things difficult for him. The police officers in charge found two prisoners to serve Liu Kunlun. This was also compliant. After all, Liu Kunlun was paraplegic at a high position and had a waste bag on his body. Such a prisoner should be out of medical parole, and a police officer said this.
Liu Kunlun's defense lawyer Zhou Zhengyi appeared again, and his request was to apply for medical parole to the client. Under the coordination of all parties and witness of reporters, the culprit of the massacre was handled with medical parole, moved out of the Beihe County Detention Center, and was admitted to the Omi Armed Police General Hospital.
Lawyer Zhou met with Liu Kunlun. After listening to Liu Kunlun's narrative, he said seriously: "This case is difficult to handle, but I will do my best, and at the same time I also need your cooperation..."
After the meeting, Zhou Zhengyi left the hospital and met Liu Kunlun's family. He told them that everything was fine for the client. I would try to reduce the charge from intentional homicide to intentional injury and death, and try my best to save my life.
Liu Yimeng and Miao Chunjiu thanked each other for their gratitude, and finally a glimmer of light in their hearts.
Before the trial of the family extermination case, the relevant departments of Jinjiang City first handled several other cases. The director, instructor, deputy director of the police station in the township where Cuizhai Village was affiliated was removed, and the charge was forged for forging household registration. Cui Liangming was over 20 years old, but he made false impact on the judiciary and violated the law. The crime was unforgivable. Those who waited for these black sheep would be severe punishment for party discipline and national laws.
The relevant person in charge of the Beihe County Justice Bureau and the Public Security Bureau’s detention center illegally put the prisoners back home for the New Year. After the incident, they deliberately destroyed the evidence, which brought difficulties to the case to solve the case. After the relevant personnel were dismissed from public office, they were prosecuted, and what awaited them would be a prison disaster.
Cui Haidong, the third son of the Cui family, was found to interfere with judicial work and accepted bribes during the construction of the county's thermal power plant. He was seriously violated discipline and was dismissed twice and transferred to the judicial system.
A month later, when spring was in full bloom, the Cuizhai Village family extermination case was heard in the Jinjiang Intermediate People's Court. The trial was not made public, and only a few people attended the audience.
Unsurprisingly, the prosecution prosecuted the crime of intentional injury to cause death rather than intentional homicide. This crime itself is much less expensive and more reasonable than intentional homicide. A paralyzed man came to the door to kill the whole family and did not carry any weapons on his body, which made it impossible.
At the beginning of the trial, Liu Kunlun was pushed into the dock in a wheelchair. He had his hair shaved and in good spirits. He had two bags of fistula hanging on his body, blankets on his legs, lawyer Zhou was wearing a suit and ties, golden silk glasses flashed with cold light, and looked like an aggressive fighter. He proposed to defend his innocence for the client!
The prosecution and defense had a fierce debate. Zhou Zhengyi was obviously better at his skills. He spoke in a sensation and kept talking. He took out an appraisal certificate issued by a medical institution, proving that Liu Kunlun was a high-ranking paraplegic patient and had no ability to move his lower limbs. Even if he could move his hands, he would never have the ability to kill five people.
"Is he a peerless master?" Zhou Zhengyi asked with a sarcastic look on his face, "Can you hurt someone by picking up a leaf?"
The prosecutor pointed out that according to the relevant police records, Liu Kunlun is not an ordinary person. He has the tenacious will and extraordinary ability that ordinary people do not have. He has already died at his hands for six lives, which proves that Liu Kunlun has the ability to kill.
"My client has no motive for murder at all." Zhou Zhengyi said. He issued a record of mutual communication between the deputy director of the police station and Cui Haihu, proving that Liu Kunlun came to the door with kindness. Afterwards, the scene was checked. No weapon was brought by Liu Kunlun, and all of them were taken out by the Cui family.
"Liu Kunlun only brought two bottles of wine. Have you ever seen anyone using Luzhou Laojiao as a murder weapon?" Zhou Zhengyi asked for the second question.
The strong evidence is still behind. The forensic doctor raised several metal beads from Cui Liang's body. These were the projectiles of the No. 12 Deer Hunting Bullet. After detection, they were fired from Cui Hailong's hunting rifle. Liu Kunlun also had the same projectile on his body, which was fired at the same time. This powerfully proved that Cui Liang was shot and killed by Cui Hailong.
From this point of view, Liu Kunlun seemed to have only killed four people.
The forensic results of the forensic doctor in the municipal bureau were unexpected. Cui Haiqiang's death was caused by the poison of cyanide. A bottle with * was found in Cui Haiqiang's bedroom. It is well known that this person often shoots rural local dogs with crossbow arrows and sells them for money. There are only Cui Hailong's fingerprints on the crossbow, and there is no trace of Liu Kunlun using them. This shows that Cui Haiqiang also died at the hands of Cui Hailong and has nothing to do with Liu Kunlun.
In this way, Liu Kunlun killed only three people.
Cui Ming died of excessive blood loss. The wine bottle inserted in his chest had Liu Kunlun's fingerprints on his neck, but Liu Kunlun's chest was also inserted in a beer bottle, and Cui Ming's fingerprints were also found. The criminal police restored the scene. It should be that the two of them poked each other during the fight, and almost at the same time stabbed the other's chest with the wine bottle slags into each other's chest. This is legally a textbook-like self-defense.
As for Cui Hailong, he died under his own gun. The hunting rifle was purchased and hidden by the Cui family. It was stained with Liu Kunlun's hair and blood. It shows that Cui Hailong beat Liu Kunlun with the * and was shot and killed by Liu Kunlun. But strangely, there were traces of two striker on the bullet shell, indicating that the bullet fired only after the second firing. The police analyzed that it was very likely that Cui Hailong's gun fired when he was crazy about beating someone, causing his death.
The most difficult thing to explain is the cause of Cui Haihu's death. However, after forensic testing, Cui Haihu was drunk all year round and had extremely poor cardiopulmonary function. He actually died of a sudden heart disease, which was related to his previous working and living habits. He died of a heart attack during the fight with Liu Kunlun. This is the real cause of death.
Zhou Zhengyi said in a voice: "My client came to beg for mercy because he knew he was disabled and his mother still had to live in the local area. A strong man had to bow his head for his mother, but what was waiting for him? It was the humiliation and beating of the Cui family. Unfortunately, Liu Kunlun saw someone he shouldn't have seen. Cui Liang, who had been sentenced by the court, actually sat at home and drank in a big way. The Cui family was afraid that Liu Kunlun would report it to the relevant departments, so he had a motive to kill someone to silence him. My client was dragged down from the wheelchair by them for an inhumane killing. The hunting rifle, crossbow, poisonous arrows and knives and axes found on the scene can prove that if it is just beating and intimidation, these weapons are not needed."
"Liu Kunlun defends himself just to save his life and does not have the motivation to intentionally hurt him. Even in the face of the fatal attacks of five people, he still maintains great restraint. We all know that defensive behaviors for ongoing crimes, murder, robbery, rape, kidnapping and other violent crimes that seriously endanger personal safety, causing casualties to illegally infringe on people is not excessive defense and no criminal responsibility is borne. I believe that the charge of intentional injury is not established. My party is in self-defense and should be acquitted!"
During the trial, Liu Kunlun's confession corresponded to the lawyer's defense, proving that he was indeed unarmed and even kowtowed in front of the spiritual seat of the old man of the Cui family. This has also been verified.
The prosecution's accusations are much weaker than Zhou Zhengyi's defense. After several clashes, lawyer Zhou has a clear upper hand.
After the collegial panel held a collegial meeting, the judge pronounced the verdict, and Liu Kunlun was established in self-defense and was released in court.
The audience was boiling, and the relatives and friends of the Liu family cried with joy. The Cui family was furious. Mrs. Cui was about to rush over to beat the judge on the spot, but was controlled by the bailiff and dragged it out.
The bailiff opened Liu Kunlun's handcuffs, Lawyer Zhou sorted out his tie, and personally pushed his client out of the court. There were reporters outside gathering, and there were flashes.
