Death sentence turned into acquittal? Who told him to be a detective!

Chapter 312 Biting Anyone in Sight! [Seeking Monthly Tickets!]

Is this right?
Is this really true?
This is not right.
When did the indictment state that it was suing Zhengyangcheng?!

How could the presiding judge not know this?!

Judge Liu's lips twitched slightly, his expression was a bit strange, and his eyes gradually became serious.

To be honest, this has already gone beyond the scope of this trial, since the trial should focus on Zhang Shan.

but.
It seems that the separation is not entirely complete, because what Xu Liang said is also related to Zhang Shan's death!

Before Judge Liu could speak, the other party's voice continued to reach his ears.

Xu Liang, holding the indictment, continued speaking:

"First, on June 13, after we found Zhang Shan's body in Zhengyang City, we called the case filing hotline, but only one police officer arrived at the scene, which violated the police dispatch discipline."

"Secondly, the other party classified a case as a suicide in just five minutes, which constitutes inaction and dereliction of duty!"

"Third, when we went to the Municipal Public Security Bureau to apply for a reasonable reconsideration of this case, Wu Guotao of the Municipal Public Security Bureau ruled the case a suicide, which is an abuse of power!"

Fourth, Zhengyangcheng Court.

"."

He blurted out four violations.

It was as if Wu Guotao, not Zhu Haoyi, was sitting in the defendant's dock!
The cannon's firing range seems a bit off!
No, it wasn't just slightly off-center; it was completely out of the way of pointing the cannon at itself!
"what's the situation?"

Zhu Haoyi frowned, thinking that the other party would take the initiative to attack the mining company.

After all, although Zhengyang Mining Company is not in it for making big money and therefore has some safety guarantees, people still die in the mine from time to time. This can be used as a breakthrough point for the other party.

But based on what the other party is saying right now...
"broken."

Li Yang's heart sank suddenly; he immediately realized the other party's purpose.

"Speak!" Zhu Haoyi's eyes narrowed, and he urged.

“He might be trying to drag us into this through Wu Guotao,” Li Yang said in a deep voice.

Let's say that.

If Xu Liang uses Zhang Shan's death as a breakthrough point.

Even if he has evidence, he can't do anything to the mining company; the final punishment will be nothing more than two points.

First, pay some compensation. Second, find a scapegoat in the company and say that everything was done by the other party, who wanted a promotion and a raise, so he forced Zhang Shan to sign and then killed him when the other party had no desire to sell!
But if it's targeting Wu Guotao's side...
The other party couldn't withstand the investigation!

Let's not even talk about whether we've finished eating the mooncakes that were given to us recently.

Simply investigating the other party's cash flow is enough for the authorities to discover problems, and then the other party can drag the mining company into the mess.

At that time, will it still be necessary to explain who sent the gift?

Subordinates shouldn't take the blame for this!

"A little tricky."

Li Yang murmured to himself, beginning to brainstorm.

Xu Liang completely ignored the other party's meaning at this moment. After he had finished speaking, he looked up at the presiding judge on the bench and slowly said:

"Your Honor, we have now completed presenting our claims."

Upon hearing this, Judge Liu finally came to his senses, and his face immediately darkened.

Wasn't it supposed to be a surprise attack with evidence?
What?! A surprise indictment?!
But he didn't press the matter further, nor did he hold anyone accountable in court. After all, there were dozens of reporters in the audience, and if he lost his composure, he would definitely be on the front page of tomorrow's newspapers!
"Defendant, do you have any rebuttal to the plaintiff's claims?" Judge Liu asked.

The words fell.

Dozens of eyes in the audience all fell on Li Yang and Zhu Haoyi.

They were also very curious about how the other party would refute them.

Li Yang paused for a moment, then quickly stood up and said:

"Your Honor, Your Honor, Your Honor, Your Honor."

"The opposing lawyer is talking complete nonsense!"

He took a deep breath and slowed his speech, as if giving himself time to think.

Li Yang didn't use the prepared documents; he knew they were completely useless.

That's what a surprise evidence raid looks like.

You have absolutely no time to prepare and can only improvise. If the judge does not punish the person who launches the evidence attack, you must deal with the opponent's attack, which tests your personal ability and improvisation skills.

"I need to first address the latter part of the opposing lawyer's complaint."

"First, I want to ask the defendant: on the afternoon of the 13th, did the police go to Rundong Weaving Factory to verify the case? If so, what was your answer at the time?" Li Yang said slowly.

The words fell.

All eyes turned to Xu Liang like a brush.

To be precise, it's Liu Jinshui!

But his face paled, and he was filled with remorse, but it was all in vain. He could only try to speak but could not, and even if he did, no one could hear him.

Judge Liu spoke in a deep voice, "Plaintiff, please respond."

Upon hearing this, Xu Liang said, "At the time, we described this incident as a suicide."

He remembered it clearly.

On the first day at Rundong Weaving Factory, Zhang Shan was found dead. When the police arrived, because the mining company had long been colluding with Wu Guotao, Liu Jinshui could only say that it was suicide.

Otherwise, no matter how much you argue, the case will not be filed.

Even mining companies might target Liu Jinshui! "That's right, we admit that there was only one police officer responding to the incident, which does not comply with the police response regulations."

"But the on-site assessment was legal, compliant, and well-founded!"

Li Yang smiled and refuted the argument logically.

"Firstly, the scene of death indicated suicide by hanging. Secondly, there were no external injuries on the body of the deceased, Zhang Shan. The autopsy results showed that he died of mechanical asphyxiation, which is consistent with the result of hanging."

"Furthermore, the client stated personally that the case was a suicide, which misled the police officers."

"At the same time, due to the shortage of police resources in Zhengyang City, there is only one police officer on duty. And because of the shortage of resources, the police have no choice but to recruit police officers from the community."

"This led to errors in their work."

This is a matter of personal ability, not attitude!!!

talking.

Li Yang suddenly changed the subject and emphasized it again.

"However, the police officers' judgment was not entirely wrong; the deceased in this case did indeed die by suicide, not homicide!"

"The autopsy has already made a determination."

His voice was strong and clear, with a convincing accent.

The audience paused, their brows furrowing.

Quiet whispers gradually spread among them.

"Ability issue. Tsk, that makes sense. Contract recruits are generally not very capable, so it's normal for mistakes to happen."

"As for the police response, it's just a routine violation, and it doesn't seem to be related to Zhengyang Mining Company."

"So what exactly happened in this court hearing? Was the plaintiff being aggressive, or was the defendant resorting to sophistry?"

"It's hard to say. I've met the plaintiff's lawyer many times. He's not a nice guy. There must be some reason why he dares to say that there are problems with discipline and the police station."

"Is this clause in the indictment? I've never seen it before."

"You expect to see a clause about the period for presenting evidence in the indictment? Are you a new reporter? Is this your first time handling a plaintiff's case?"

"."

There was much discussion in the audience, with most people feeling confused and hesitant.

There's no other reason than that, in the current case, both sides have their own reasons for their arguments.

From both sides' perspectives, what they said is correct!

"This is difficult."

Judge Liu frowned, a hint of astonishment showing on his face.

After a long while, he finally looked at Xu Liang, the plaintiff, but seeing that the other party showed no emotion, he asked:
"Plaintiff, do you have any rebuttal to the defendant's above statements?"

Upon hearing this, Xu Liang nodded.

Xu Liang sneered, then pulled out a photograph, on which...
It was a rotting severed hand!

He handed the photo to the court clerk, who then passed it on to Judge Liu.

"This is."

The three judges on the bench frowned and looked at each other. After a long while, they finally raised their heads and turned to look at Liu Jinshui, who was wearing a short-sleeved shirt.

The other person's left hand was empty. Even an ordinary person could tell from the shape of the wound that the hand was cut off while the person was still alive, rather than by accident!

Judge Liu was startled and instantly knew what Xu Liang was about to say.

The next second, the other person's voice came from beside my ear.

"Everyone."

"The severed hand belongs to the left hand of my client, Liu Jinshui, and DNA testing has confirmed what I said above."

"Judging from the cut, the perpetrator used a machete or similar weapon, swinging it across the arm a dozen times, as if chopping meat, before severing the hand!"

"And why did this happen?"

As he spoke, Xu Liang paused and turned to look at Liu Jinshui beside him.

The next second, Liu Jinshui took a deep breath, stood up straight, straightened his chest, recalled for a moment, and then said in a deep voice:
"About two months ago, in mid-May, Zhengyang Mining Company took measures to cut off our water and food supplies. They bought up the small shops in the surrounding area and had someone cut off the tap water supply, and posted a notice that they would have a one-month repair period."

"At the same time, they would also vandalize the finished products made in the weaving factory at night, which led to frequent conflicts and several vicious fights."

"So I went to the police station to appeal, but the police dismissed it as normal maintenance."

"And the instant I returned to the knitting factory from the police station."

Then, people from the mining company arrived and gave Liu Jinshui and his companions a good beating.

The police were alerted one moment, and the news came the next.
What's going on here is obvious; at least anyone with eyes can see it!
Even more so.
"Immediately afterward, I left Zhengyang City, intending to go to the province to file a complaint, but before I even left the city, having only bought a train ticket, I was forcibly dragged away by the people from the mining company."

As he spoke, Liu Jinshui didn't know whether to laugh or cry. He held up his empty left hand and said:
"Then they cut off my left hand."

It's still a cause-and-effect relationship, one thing leading to the other.

This cannot be accomplished by a single mining company; it requires the cooperation of others!
In this case
If Wu Guotao of Zhengyang City is indeed involved in this matter...

This is not just a matter of inaction.

But
"As stated in the indictment, we believe that Wu Guotao of the Zhengyang Urban Management Bureau..."

Xu Liang took a deep breath and followed up on what Liu Jinshui had said. His expression was serious as he looked at everyone and said:
"Abuse of power!"
