Chapter 2176 Public Trial
Chen Dalu, Chen Kang and others left in a hurry. Chen Lei dared to cry like a ghost and howl louder than his dead parents. When he screamed like that, his mother-in-law also cried and howled.
The three people cried miserably, but no one came to comfort them.
After crying for a while, their eyes were darkened by the sun. The three of them were tired of crying. They got up with grinning teeth and went inside to see their injuries.
Zhu Chaozi was not beaten and had no injuries on his body.
Ma Maqiao, Chen Lei, mother and son were beaten. In fact, they were all skin injuries. The areas where they were struck by the stick were bruised, swollen, and turned blue.
The mother and son were afraid of being seen and embarrassed, and were too embarrassed to go to the rural hospital, so they took medicine to reduce swelling and pain.
As for retaliating against Chen Kang, they didn't even dare to think about it. The Le family's little short-lived ghost hated them so much that they were thankful that the little short-lived ghost didn't come to trouble them. They dared to get together unless it was "the old birthday girl hanged himself". Long life."
Sister-in-law He didn't know what happened before she went to Chen Wu's house. She only talked about what she saw after she invited Mr. Chen Dalu to go there. After she finished talking, she also arrived in front of the garden in front of the Lejia building, changed the topic, and went to the Lejia hall together. .
Chen Fengnian couldn't sit still and ran to the kitchen of the south building to look around.
Le Yun knew that her uncle and grandpa had gone to Chen Wu's house. Chen Lei was a soft-spoken man and his uncle went to settle accounts aggressively. Unless those people in the family were so anxious that they would jump over the wall, they would not dare to hit their uncle. Just get beaten.
Her consciousness is strong and she can clearly hear all kinds of sounds happening in the Chen family.
Uncle and grandpa have come back, and some naughty boy came to brush his face. Le Xiaololi wiped her hands on her apron, stretched out her little claws and crawled over the head of Chen Fengnian, who was a little taller than herself, and gave him a slap on the head to kill him.
Chen Fengnian, who was close to his cousin as a curious baby, was touched so hard on the head that his back became stiff and he did not dare to run away. His face was so shy that he said, "Sister, sister, I am an adult, please don't touch your head." .”
"Good boy, your mind works very fast. You did a good job. I will reward you with a chicken drumstick tonight." After rubbing the little cousin's head, Le Xiaoxiao smiled and promised the reward.
"Sister, what are you talking about?" Chen Fengnian pretended to be stupid. Could it be that his cousin already knew that grandpa went to someone's house and beat him up?
"You are said to have good adaptability in Chen Wu's family, and you are a clever little kid." "
..." Chen Fengnian wanted to deny it, but when he saw his little cousin staring at him with bright eyes, he suddenly became as docile as a sheep: "Okay, sister. We all know, and there is nothing to hide. Grandpa went to Chen Wu’s house and beat Chen Wu’s son to vent his anger. I also took the opportunity to give him a few sticks. Although I was taking advantage of others’ danger and was a bit of a villain, I still hit someone. , I feel quite happy."
"I understand, I feel quite happy when I beat someone to death." Le Yun nodded sadly, then rubbed the naughty child's head: "You can stand up for your cousin, I have my heart.
The real guilty person is Chen Wu. Evil people have their own laws to convict them. Although the father's debt is repaid by the son, the consequences of murdering people must be borne by the evildoer himself. You cannot knock a boatload of people into the water with a bamboo pole. Chen Wu is guilty. , we can't offend his family, we must treat him soberly and rationally.
This time, we beat Chen Wu's son openly and openly, and he also let out a sigh of relief. Others can also understand. Don't beat that family again in the future. There are some things that can be solved. No, if you hit someone again, you are bullying them.
There is a saying that dogs will jump over the wall when they are in a hurry. If they are in a hurry, they will all die together. They will not regret dying. Let something happen to themselves, which will not be worth the gain." "Yeah
. ." His cousin taught him how to be a good person. Chen Fengnian accepted the teachings honestly and took note of his cousin's teachings.
Originally, he was still thinking about hitting that guy every time he saw him in the future, but now after listening to his cousin's teachings, he decided to listen to his cousin and not cause trouble for those people in the future, so as not to force him to jump over the wall.
Her little cousin was a bit of a bear and had a wild temper, but he was not stupid. Le Yun knew that he was not stubborn, so she didn't talk about it endlessly. She just said a few words and then ignored him.
Chen Fengnian was slapped on the head several times and felt shy inside. When his head was finally free, he quickly ran away and went outside to get some fresh air.
After the heat on his face subsided, he sneaked back into the kitchen and squeezed in next to his cousin as a follower. He also successfully received a plate of freshly baked tube noodles as a reward from his cousin. He was so happy that he flew to the main room to enjoy the food with the plate in his arms.
Chen Zhaonian went out for a trip and went to the high school group of Xiao Shao and others.
Chen Kang, who returned to his nephew's house, never mentioned where he went.
Sister-in-law He also said that she was going to visit the fields and met the old uncle wandering around, so they came to Lejia to sit together.
Zhou Wei's previous reaction was obviously weird. Mr. Chao and others didn't say anything even if they had doubts in their hearts. On the surface, they all believed that Chen Kang was really going for a walk.
Sister-in-law He sat at Le's house until late in the evening before going home. Her Xiaozhu family had a holiday last week after taking the exam, and Xiaohe also had a holiday after taking the primary school entrance examination in June. They all went to the village office to study. It was almost sunset and they were about to go home. , she has to go home and do housework.
Village Chief Aunt Zhou, Zhang Laosan and others all knew that Xiao Lele was back. They also knew that Mr. Chao and others came to Meicun for vacation and went to Le's house after dinner.
The Lejia harvested rice on the 20th. The neighbors chatted in the Lejia until ten o'clock and then dispersed. The Lejia owners and guests also went to bed early and got up early. After breakfast, they took the guys to the fields to harvest rice.
All the old men and young people in Lejia went to the fields. Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Chao, Mrs. Wu, and Zhou Wei were responsible for feeding the chickens and ducks and cooking at home.
Mrs. Wu, Mrs. Wang, Mrs. Chao, Mrs. Zhou Wei, even if she is not a pampered old lady, she is definitely good at household chores in the countryside. Grandma Zhou Man and Grandma Zhou went to Lejia to help the old ladies with housework.
Village Chief Zhou went to the village committee in the morning and went to Lejia to help with work in the afternoon.
Young women such as Aunt Pa, Liu's sister-in-law, and Zhao's sister-in-law help the Le family harvest rice. The Le family also has helpers, who work hand-to-hand to cut and thresh the seedlings, tie up straw, and transport rice and straw back to the Le family. Everyone cooperates according to what they are good at. , every process is seamlessly connected.
Due to the large number of manpower, the fields that were harvested in the morning were watered after removing the straw, and then fertilizers were transported and plowed in the afternoon. Personnel No. 21 divided the work again and evened out manpower to pull the seedlings. Women with fast hands Responsible for transplanting rice seedlings.
The 21st was also the day of the public trial of the Huang Zhichang case. The four members of the Le family refused to go to the court hearing. Mr. Xiao was a professional lawyer and acted as a representative to attend the hearing. Zhou Wei and Chen Kang also thought about the faces of the people who harmed their niece. also go.
Mr. Liu was responsible for being the driver. He drove the helicopter to transport the three people, two old and one young, to the Municipal Court.
Lan San is the "witness representative" responsible for managing certain special evidence. He is not in the prosecution team and is listening in the front row.
Mr. Liu, Chen Kang, Zhou Xiao and Brother Xiao were ordinary spectators. They went earlier and sat relatively near the front.
No one from Chen Lei's family went to attend the trial. Zhang Ke went. He went to the county seat in the afternoon of the first day and took a bus to pick up the market in the morning.
The court is scheduled to convene at ten past nine.
Huang Zhichang and the Huang family were once famous in Shi City, and the case involving Huang Zhichang and the Huang family also attracted much attention from the public. It was a public trial, and there were many citizens watching. The main force was middle-aged and elderly people and liberals. Fake high school and junior high school students.
Some are teams organized by certain work units to take this opportunity to popularize the law or promote legal knowledge, so that people can fear the majesty of the law and safeguard the dignity and justice of the law.
The court opened on time. Due to the seriousness of the case, the number of presiding judges and jurors was the largest in the history of the city. There were three presiding judges and a total of 20 jurors, forming a collegial panel of 23 people.
Because the events in the Huang Zhichang and Huang family cases spanned a long period of time, spanned many regions, and the nature of the cases was diverse, most of the jury members were from provincial capitals, and two of the presiding judges were dispatched from provincial capitals by the Supreme Court. Otherwise, , the power of municipal courts alone cannot sort out such a complicated and major case in a short period of time.
The collegial panel with so many members also shows that the superiors attach great importance to his case and are determined to handle it seriously.
There are many people in the collegial panel, and there are also many criminals. There are more than a dozen principal criminals involved in the case, and there are also accomplices. Not counting those suspects who are running errands in small departments who follow orders, the number of key personnel brought to the court has reached 20. As many as three.
Complete the necessary steps according to the court hearing process and proceed to a formal court hearing.
The first step in the trial is for the prosecutor to state the reasons, facts and evidence for prosecuting Huang Zhichang and members of various interest groups.
When the prosecutor made his statement, he first accused members of the Huang family, led by Huang Zhichang, of three crimes: child trafficking, rape, and intentional injury resulting in death.
The spectators and the jury and judges in the court listened quietly, and the special reporters also took photos lightly.
The voice of the prosecutor's representative was slow and powerful, and every word was clear and clear.
The citizens of Shishi City knew that there was a fire in the Huang family ancestral hall, that Huang Mouchang's daughter and grandson died in the ancestral hall, that the Huang family was arrested, etc. They guessed that Huang Mouchang must have done a lot of abuse of power for personal gain, bribery and bribery, and corruption and corruption. thing.
It is not surprising to the public that the Huang family had an improper relationship with their superiors and subordinates. After all, one of the Huang family members was in ruins two years ago because of an improper relationship with a married woman.
When they heard the prosecutor's statement about the Huang family's child abduction and trafficking business, and that the person who was abducting children was Leya, the biological aunt of Le Yun, a girl from the Le family in Jiudao, Fang County, the audience couldn't help but gasp.
The shocked spectators took a few breaths of air and straightened their ears for fear of missing a word. There was silence in the courtroom.
When they heard that the abducted little cub had been raped to death, some people in the audience angrily cursed Huang Zhichang as a beast, a beast, worse than a pig or a dog.
From ancient times to the present, what ordinary people hate most are kidnappers and thieves.
Thieves steal things, and kidnappers specialize in kidnapping children. From ancient times to the present, ordinary people in China have followed the principle that "the greatest unfilial piety is to have no descendants." This shows the importance of offspring in people's hearts.
The concept of procreating children and passing on blood from generation to generation has long been engraved in the blood and bones of the Chinese people. People who abduct their own children would like to skin them and remove their muscles.
Even if your child has not been kidnapped, you still hate kidnappers. If you hear someone shouting "murder and robbery", no one may dare to act righteously. If you hear someone shouting "kidnapping kidnapping", they will definitely respond in groups and help to surround and chase them. Save people.
In the past, kidnappers and thieves were caught and beaten to death without guilt.
Today is a legal society, and kidnappers and thieves cannot be beaten to death if they are caught. Ordinary people's hatred of kidnappers and thieves continues unabated.
The Huang family was involved in kidnapping and trafficking children decades ago and committed Taotian crimes. Life is a light reward and should be cut into pieces by a thousand cuts.
The crowd was so angry that the presiding judge immediately banged the hammer and shouted "Adjourn the court for five minutes" to prevent the spectators from being dismissed because of excessive emotions and being deemed to have disrupted the court.
The judge called for an adjournment, and the crowd's anger was directed at the culprit, shouting and begging the judge to demand the lives of the Huang family.
There was a wave of curses in the court.
The Huang family members were scolded until their faces turned pale.
After a temporary adjournment, the judges quickly calmed the spectators, asking them not to be agitated and to believe in the fairness of the law. The law will not let bad people go and will not wrongly accuse good people.
The spectators vented their anger and were appeased by the scolding. When the court resumed, the crowd calmed down and restrained their temper and stopped scolding.
The prosecutor continued to state the reasons for prosecution, facts and evidence.
Because there were so many people, it took more than an hour for the prosecutor to read the indictment against the defendant before reaching the last one. The last charge the prosecutor charged Huang Zhichang was treason.
The spectators were shocked when they heard the last sentence saying that Huang Zhichang betrayed national interests and made illegal transactions with some organization.
When Huang Zhichang heard that the prosecutor accused him of treason, he became emotional. He tried to stand up several times but was forced to sit down again. He kept shouting that he was wronged.
The presiding judge gave a stern warning that if the defendant suspect did not abide by court discipline and disrupted court order, he would be expelled.
Huang Zhichang was also afraid that after he was taken away, because he was not present, the former interest group would blame him alone and he would bear the blame, so he kept his mouth shut unwillingly.
The profit gang that colluded with Huang Zhichang felt their legs weak when they heard the last charge listed by the prosecutor. Fortunately, the suspects were all sitting down, and no one noticed their nervousness and panic.
The prosecutor's statement is a statement by the defendant's attorney, which is a statement of facts and evidence in response to a certain crime charged by the prosecutor against the defendant.
The prosecutor was fully prepared and had complete evidence. The defendant’s attorney also knew the seriousness of the case. He had communicated with the defendant and his family many times and admitted that there was no possibility of reversal. The only thing he could do was to try his best to get a confession. Leniency after leniency.
Because the defendant cannot clearly know that the crime committed by the criminal suspect is a fact, but disregard the fairness of the law and confuse right and wrong, the defendant does not defend certain charges when he entrusts a lawyer to make a statement.
Because there were many criminal suspects and many attorneys were entrusted by the defendant, it took more than an hour in total to make statements for his clients one after another.
After the prosecutor and the defendant entrusted the lawyers to make statements, the court investigated and then tried, starting with the child abduction and trafficking of Huang Zhichang and the Huang family.
The prosecutor presented evidence to prove the defendant's crime, the defendant's client cross-examined evidence one by one, and both sides presented evidence to argue against each other.
During the defense, Grandma Zhang and Chen Wu, who were bribed by the Huang family to abduct Leya directly, were brought to the Legalist witness stand as witnesses and accomplices.
Grandma Chen Wu and Zhang were brought back to Shishi on the day they were arrested. When the two of them entered the situation, they did not dare to hide anything, and they confessed everything they had done.
