Lawyer's character

Fang Yi turned around and saw Zhou Ying covering her mouth and giggling.

"Oh my God, I'm finally released. I almost suffocated myself to death." After a moment, Zhou Ying retracted her smile, stuck out her tongue with a relaxed expression, and said.

"Okay, enough laughing. Come on, let me see what the case is." Fang Yi reached for the case file.

"My master was right, it was a bloody case." Zhou Ying handed over the case file and said.

"What crime?" Fang Yi took the case file in his hand and looked up at Zhou Ying.

"For robbery, the defendant was seriously injured. It's a legal aid case, assigned by the court." Zhou Ying replied.

"Indefinite life, or the death penalty?" Fang Yi was stunned for a moment and asked.

There are only three situations where the people's court notifies the legal aid agency to appoint a lawyer to defend the defendant: 1. The defendant is blind, deaf or mute; 2. A mental patient who has not completely lost the ability to recognize or control his own behavior; 3. The defendant may A person sentenced to life imprisonment or death.

So when Fang Yi heard that it was a legal aid case assigned by the court, his first reaction was "life sentence" or "death penalty" cases, because there are many such cases.

"Death penalty! The first trial was conducted by lawyer Wang Deyou of our legal aid team. After the verdict was handed down, the procuratorate protested. Lawyer Wang had too many cases and really didn't have time, so he gave me the second trial of this case.

The defendant I went to the detention center to meet yesterday, please help me see if there is a chance in this case. You watch, I will introduce the case to you..." Zhou Ying said and went through the basic situation of the case.

The defendant, Yang Rongwei, was twenty-eight years old and lived in a remote mountain village in a century-old poverty-stricken county. Because the village was in a remote location and his family had no money, Yang Rongwei failed to go on blind dates many times. Later, the matchmaker even coaxed and deceived him. A second-married woman.

But the girl's parents asked for a bride price of 100,000 yuan. Yang Rongwei was stunned when he heard it. The matchmaker immediately persuaded him that a second marriage would cost 100,000 yuan. If the eldest girl didn't say much, it would cost 188,800 yuan. This doesn’t include houses and cars.

The matchmaker saw that he was a little moved, and told him that people in the city don't talk about this now, let alone second marriages, seventh and eighth marriages, and children before getting married. But it's just a matter of a piece of paper. Times have changed, so there's no need. I worry too much about this, and although the woman introduced this time is married for the second time, she has never given birth to any children, and she is good-looking. If it weren't for her husband's accident, he would definitely not be in his turn.

Later, Yang Rongwei was persuaded, and after discussing it with his family, they scraped together some money for the bride price. After a simple banquet, they got the certificate and moved in together.

Seeing that the small life was getting better and the family had to pay for the famine, Yang Rongwei's father, Lao Yang, scratched his head, so he got up early and ran to the mountains at dusk, digging for medicinal materials and picking wild dates. In short, he did whatever he could to make money.

As a result, one time when he was digging for medicinal materials on the mountain, Lao Yangtou accidentally rolled down the mountain and was sent to the hospital by the villagers who went to dig for medicinal materials.

Old Yangtou knew that his family had a poor financial background and could not afford to live in a hospital. He had his son Yang Rongwei go through the discharge procedures with a cast on his leg and returned home on an electric tricycle.

The family already owed foreign debt, and his father broke his leg and needed treatment. Yang Rongwei worked hard for a month as a laborer on a construction site in the countryside and could not earn much money. He originally expected that the salary settled at the end of the year would be able to buy some medicine for his father. After repaying part of the foreign debt, the contractor took the money and ran away, and neither the contractor nor the construction party cared about it.

He also wanted to be like other people, sitting around the table and enjoying themselves as a family, but the family owed foreign debts, his father needed money for medical treatment for his legs, and the contractor ran away with the money. The New Year was about to come, and his pocket Cleaner than my face. When the only hope was shattered, Yang Rongwei, who was desperate, gradually began to have evil thoughts in his heart.

After New Year's Day, he endured the work shed for a few more days. The workers around him failed to collect debts and left one after another. After thinking about it, he suddenly remembered that he had worked on decoration in a high-end community in the city last year. The residents of that community Either rich or noble, both are very rich. So he took an electrician's knife from the construction site and took a car to the city.

After sneaking into the community, Yang Rongwei saw a middle-aged woman who was very well-dressed. He felt that she must be rich, so he followed her to Room 402.

Then he knocked on the door of the victim Gong Jingyan's house on the pretext that there was a gas leak and needed to check the gas. After Yang Rongwei entered the house, he immediately took out an electrician's knife and put it on Gong Jingyan's neck, threatened and beat her, and asked Gong Jingyan to surrender. Gong Jingyan resisted with all his strength, fought with him and called for help.

Yang Rongwei was more nervous than Gong Jingyan when he robbed her for the first time. He was afraid that Gong Jingyan would shout and attract other people, so he grabbed household decorations, porcelain bottles, ashtrays, water cups and other items and frantically threw them at Gong Jingyan's head. Gong Jingyan resisted fiercely, and Yang Rongwei picked up the He picked up the half-broken stump of a water cup and repeatedly poked Gong Jingyan in the face, causing multiple injuries to her head, face, and hands, and a large amount of blood loss.

After that, Yang Rongwei used the wires on the power strip in the house to strangle Gong Jingyan's neck. Gong Jingyan passed out due to heavy bleeding and her neck was strangled.

After Gong Jingyan fell unconscious and lost the ability to resist, Yang Rongwei rummaged through the house and finally found only a wallet containing RMB 82 in cash. Yang Rongwei then fled the scene.

Afterwards, Gong Jingyan was discovered by neighbors and called the police. She was later sent to the hospital for rescue.

It was identified that Gong Jingyan suffered brain contusion, subarachnoid hemorrhage, multiple soft tissue lacerations on the head, face, and left upper limb, and hemorrhagic shock. The extent of his injuries was serious.

After Gong Jingyan was rescued, the police launched a search based on community surveillance and the suspect's appearance described by Gong Jingyan, and finally captured Yang Rongwei in a small restaurant.

The Procuratorate transferred Yang Rongwei's case to the Intermediate People's Court for robbery.

The Intermediate People's Court held that the defendant Yang Rongwei used violence and coercion for the purpose of illegal possession, and entered the house to rob money, causing serious injuries. His behavior constituted the crime of robbery, and the circumstances were serious and should be severely punished.

After the defendant was brought to justice and educated, he was still able to confess the crime committed by the public security organs and during the court trial, and his attitude of pleading guilty was good, so he could be given a lighter punishment as appropriate.

Since the defendant's actions caused the victim Gong Jingyan's physical and mental injuries and heavy economic losses, the victim's claim for compensation should be supported.

The verdict is as follows: 1. Defendant Yang Rongwei was convicted of robbery and sentenced to death with a two-year suspended sentence, deprived of political rights for life, and fined RMB 4,000. 2. Compensation for the plaintiff Gong Jingyan Medical and other expenses in the incidental civil lawsuit is RMB 30,000.

"What is the reason for the procuratorate's protest?" Fang Yi asked while looking through the case files.
