The Sage of Confucianism and Taoism
Chapter 958 Severe punishment for serious crimes!
Chapter 958 Pillars of the Legalists
Not to mention that the three men could not accept the death penalty, even the restaurant guests who hated them were stunned. In the eyes of normal people, even if such people were buying and selling dead meat, since no one died, they would not be sentenced to death. At most, they would be exiled for 20 years.
Because Ning'an County has become a pilot for the Criminal Court, the Criminal Court officials stationed in Ning'an will take turns to watch Fang Yun's trial.
I saw an old Hanlin from the Criminal Court squeeze out of the crowd, walk to the main hall door, stand outside the threshold, and bow his hands, saying: "Fang Xusheng, is this sentence too heavy?"
Fang Yun remained calm and looked at the Hanlin and said: "The death penalty has two prerequisites. One is that it can only be used for criminals with extremely serious crimes, and the other is that it only applies to specific crimes. Behaviors such as theft and fighting will not be sentenced to death. Does Lu Hanlin have any objections?"
"Indeed, the death penalty does have these two conditions." Lu Hanlin said. He was not obstructing Fang Yun. On the contrary, he stood up at this moment to help Fang Yun. If Fang Yun could not give a sufficiently reasonable reason, then Fang Yun would change the sentence immediately, and there would be no negative impact; if Fang Yun had enough reasons, he could convince more people and let everyone understand the sentence better.
Fang Yun said: "Then, let's talk about the first condition first. If I were half a quarter of an hour late today, the three people would die, and the others might also be terminally ill and difficult to cure completely. And the dead meat they sold affected countless people. I am afraid that some people would become weaker because of eating dead meat, and would not die in advance. What's more, the plague that broke out this time was the plague of the demon race. With all these things, can it be judged as an extremely serious crime?"
"Fang Xusheng said that."
Lv Hanlin nodded with the others. In terms of the severity of the crime, this is worse than murder.
Fang Yun said: "Then, let's talk about the second condition. For poisoning, ordinary poisoning will not be sentenced to death as long as no one is killed. But is the death penalty applicable to poisoning in a public place with so many people?"
"Although the laws of different countries are different, if poisoning is carried out in a place with many people, even if no one is killed by poisoning, the death penalty is applicable. However, the highly toxic substance has the absolute ability to kill, while the dead meat does not have the absolute ability to kill, so they cannot be confused." Lu Hanlin said.
Although the family members of the patients also wanted the three people to die, most of them listened carefully and felt that what Lu Hanlin said made sense. After all, he was a Hanlin of the Criminal Hall, but they just couldn't agree with their feelings.
Fang Yun said: "Due to the backward legal system of the human race, some cases do not have accurate charges and need to be reviewed by the Three Law Departments or the Criminal Court before making a decision. This county is a pilot and can be exempted from the review of the Three Law Departments. Unless the Criminal Court objects, it can be improved to a certain extent according to the law. In the law, there are no charges such as trafficking in plague and making plague. Is what this county said right?"
"Indeed, the human race's laws have some flaws." Lu Hanlin said.
Fang Yun continued: "Since there are no plague-related charges, the county should cite similar charges and replace plague with poison."
Lü Hanlin said: "These plagues are indeed no less toxic than highly toxic, but in fact, they only regard plague as a poison that is not very toxic. It can be said to be a serious laxative, not arsenic. It is not intended to kill people intentionally, of course, it actually causes serious consequences."
Fang Yun said: "What Lu Hanlin said is very true. Let's give an example. If someone just wants others to take laxatives, but accidentally takes arsenic and poisons a person, how should it be punished?"
"It should be considered manslaughter, and the sentence ranges from five to twenty years of exile, and it will not be a capital crime."
"But if a person accidentally takes arsenic and poisons many people, it involves public safety issues. How should it be punished?"
"Because the circumstances are too serious, it should be sentenced to death."
Fang Yun said: "In view of the fact that these people have been trafficking and spreading plague for a long time and on a large scale, and almost caused the deaths of many people, although the murder attempt was unsuccessful, it should be severely sentenced, not I wonder if Lü Hanlin still has any objections? "
Lü Hanlin did not speak, but pondered for a moment, and said: "How about Fang Xusheng get rid of the concept of 'poisoning crime', judge a new crime, and then have the Holy Court approve it?"
Fang Yun thought for a while and said: "Well, I will change the crime. Since poison and plague are both dangerous things, it is better to change the crime of poisoning and directly define it as 'the crime of placing dangerous objects'. However, in order to distinguish this crime from murder and other crimes, a limiting condition must be added, that is, endangering public safety. If the poisoning involves only one person, it is intentional homicide. If it is in a public place or a large area, endangering public safety, it is 'the crime of placing dangerous objects'. "
Lü Hanlin was stunned, lowered his head and thought for a moment, then suddenly raised his head and said: "Fang Xusheng is a great talent, and I am not as good as him! This crime is very appropriate, and not a word can be changed. The Criminal Court cannot refuse it! Fang Xusheng should be a pillar of the Legalists!"
When everyone saw that even the Criminal Court Hanlin admired Fang Yun very much, they felt relieved.
"You're too polite, Lu Hanlin." Fang Yun said modestly. This is actually a very common crime in later generations, which is the result of the wisdom accumulated by countless judicial elites.
So Fang Yun pronounced the new crime, and then wrote it down in person and sent it to the Criminal Court. As long as the Criminal Court approved this crime, it would not only sentence the three people to death, but also expand more around the "crime of placing dangerous objects". Perhaps next month, there will be articles related to this crime published in "The Holy Way".
After completing the naming of the new crime, Fang Yun felt that his legal code was a little thicker and more aura.
At this time, Yu Dianshi appeared at the side door of the lobby and knocked on the door frame gently, signaling Fang Yun.
When Fang Yun saw that the three were still unconscious, he asked Yu Dianshi to come over.
Yu Dianshi came over quickly with a thick stack of files in his hands, put the files on Fang Yun's desk with both hands, and then whispered: "Sir, the case of Gouzi and Jian Yayi has been preliminarily tried. Jian Yayi's case is serious and may implicate some people. Gouzi also has a lot of problems, but they are nothing more than bullying and fighting. This time, in addition to Gouzi and his three accomplices, all the ruffians related to Gouzi were arrested, a total of more than 30 people. Among them, four people have particularly serious problems and may be involved in several murders many years ago. One of the cases..."
Yu Dianshi suddenly stopped.
Fang Yun knew that there was a problem, nodded, and carefully read the case files. He soon saw the confessions of some ruffians. In order to reduce their sentences, they confessed that the four people had killed a workshop worker.
When Fang Yun saw the name of the workshop worker, a case that Ji Zhibai had tried last year immediately emerged in his mind!
In the case judged by Ji Zhibai, the murderer who killed the workshop worker had been arrested and brought to justice. He was a worker in the same workshop and was exiled to the army for twenty years.
