Chapter 139 Defendants: What crime have we committed?
The content of the subpoena is very concise and straightforward.

Not a single extra word.

It shows that she was jointly sued by Qin Mu, Liang Chengbin and others, and became the defendant.

The cause of the crime...

It is the crime of violating citizens' personal information and the crime of picking quarrels and provoking trouble.

The facts stated above are the actions Qin Mu listed.

"If I post a video online, is it a crime?"

In this regard.

She was indignant and expressed incomprehension.

Her brother is dead.

Their family didn't get any compensation. Out of anger, she chose to release the identities of Qin Mu and the others. What's wrong?

and also.

Although Qin Mu and the other four were targeted in the video, it cannot possibly constitute the crime of picking quarrels and provoking trouble anyway, right?
On the subpoena, there is also a court date.

Four days later, the court officially opened in Jincheng.

And four days later...

It was also the end of their administrative detention.

"It's abominable!"

After reading the summons, Yuan Cuilian was also trembling with anger.

Extremely excited.

"Is there any law in this world!"

"These people killed my son, it's fine if they don't pay compensation, and they still have the face to sue us?"

"If it wasn't for us being detained administratively now, I would definitely go to the nursing home to question the other party and see how thick their skins are!"

The emotions of boredom and aggrieved these days have been completely detonated.

In the detention room, she even started yelling.

At one point, it drew a warning from the correctional staff.

"Mom, calm down first, let's not think about questioning..."

Xia Qingqing smiled wryly, and said seriously: "The most urgent thing now is to find a lawyer to file a lawsuit."

After receiving the subpoena, it should actively respond to the lawsuit.

She still knew this.

and.

On the other hand, she is also worried that if they make trouble again...

He was sent in again by Qin Mu and detained by law and order.

Then it's not worth the loss.

As long as you win the lawsuit, everything is fine.

"But we are being held here now, where can we find a lawyer?"

Yuan Cuilian looked around and couldn't help asking.

Xia Qingqing: "..."

With her limited legal knowledge, she didn't know how to deal with it now.

Fortunately, they will be released after four days.

That is, the night before the trial.

Now it seems that the only way to go to a lawyer is after the administrative detention is over.

……

Jincheng.

Zhang Wei Law Firm.

"Hey?"

"Honey, I won't come back for dinner today. Alas, there is no way. I have received too many agents recently. The court is about to start, so I have to deal with it as soon as possible..."

Zhang Wei hung up the call to his wife.

Looked up.

He looked at the "clients" who were full of his law firm.

These are all the defendants he has taken over for representation these days.

At present, there are a hundred people standing in the entire law firm.

these people……

Just some of the defendants he represented.

There were hundreds of other people, and because the law firm couldn't stand up, he arranged them in other time slots.

"Come one by one, let's briefly talk about the case and your own situation."

Zhang Wei took a deep breath.

He took out the recording pen and said very skillfully: "The focus is on your comment behavior, comment content, number of likes, and spread."

The defendants looked at each other.

Looking at the "teammates" around him, they all looked a little unnatural.

After being called by Zhang Wei...

They gradually discovered that other people had the same case as their own.

It's all defamation.

The reason is the same, they all made "inappropriate remarks" in the case of chasing and fleeing to death.

And heard that their armies...

Up to thousands of people.

After hearing the news, everyone's first reaction was disbelief.

But the facts seem to be in front of them.

So far, Zhang Wei's law firm alone has handled more than 700 cases.

In other words, in addition to their 100 people, there are another 600 people!
The army of defendants is mighty!
Looking at each other, they suddenly had the feeling that they were both fallen people in the world.

even……

Zhu Qingyun took the lead and led the defendants under Zhang Wei to establish a group.

Facilitate exchange of information.

"Time is limited, who will come first?"

Looking at the unresponsive crowd, Zhang Wei frowned.

Relying on his "personal prestige" this time, he did attract many defendants.

But there are too many cases...

Also a problem.

In the law firm, he is the only one!

Now he is even thinking about whether he should take advantage of his good career development to expand his law firm.

Hire more lawyers.

Try to make the firm the No. [-] penalty reduction law firm in Jincheng.

"I'll come first."

Zhu Qingyun pursed her lips, and was the first to step forward.

Tell her what she did in the past.

When saying this...

Still feel very innocent.

Then he asked: "Lawyer Zhang, does this... really constitute a crime of defamation?"

Zhang Wei couldn't help but rolled his eyes.

He said angrily: "You scolded him for not having a son, and later you scolded the other party's household registration book, what do you think?"

This kind of speech, in addition to personal attacks, also involves insults from family members.

Totally slanderous.

Defamation does not simply refer to fabricating false facts, but also includes language, person, personality transmission and so on.

As long as the spread is wide and up to standard...

You can insist on filing a lawsuit.

"But... we usually scold people like this, I just can't get angry for a while..."

Zhu Qingyun was still defending herself.

And behind her.

The other defendants suddenly felt that the words had touched their hearts, and echoed them.

"Yeah, we didn't target them on purpose."

"I usually talk with some national curses in my mouth, it's not painful, it's normal."

"I just scolded briefly, and other people gave me praise, does this also count on me?"

"If this kind of thing happened to me, I would turn a blind eye and close my eyes. It's just an online quarrel..."

"..."

In the office.

These one hundred people chattered and vented their dissatisfaction.

What many people have said...

It opened Zhang Wei's eyes again.

He paused the recording pen and took a deep look at everyone.

Seriously said: "These remarks are mild or serious. You may think that this is a sentence that is not painful or itchy, and will not lose a piece of meat."

"But for the parties involved, there are tens of thousands and countless comments with bad words."

"You think it's a personal act, but on the Internet, it has become a flood of accusations, slander, and criticism."

"People are social animals. It is impossible not to care about other people's evaluations. Seeing endless accusations, what do you think the other party will think?"

"In front of Xue Beng, no snowflake is innocent. This is absolutely true."

"The behavior of each of you is like a snowflake, which usually falls, and maybe nothing will happen, as you said, it doesn't hurt or itch."

"But the clusters of snowflakes that cover the sky are enough to drown and swallow anyone!"

Zhang Wei's words resounded clearly and powerfully.

Many people bowed their heads at his words.

of course.

There are also people who keep their heads up all the time, disapproving, thinking that he is exaggerating.

"To tell you the truth, this time the other party sued 200 people, involving all platforms on the entire network."

Zhang Wei paused for a moment.

Then he said: "The defendant's agency I took over is only part of it."

"And your group of people... are just the most popular on the Internet, and those who meet the criteria for conviction are at most a little bit bigger snowflakes."

"Participating in the abuse with you, there are boundless, unknown little snowflakes!"

After a few words.

The entire law firm became silent.

Everyone looks different.

When Zhang Wei said this, he didn't know what he was thinking.

After a few minutes of silence.

Zhang Wei sighed and shook his head.

"next."

……

Linghe Law Firm.

Ling He is also intensively sorting out the case.

Get ready for your upcoming trial.

At this moment he...

very excited.

Because he grabbed more than 400 "customers" this time.

After finishing this lawsuit, it is equivalent to more than 400 million income!
Put it before.

He couldn't even imagine in his dreams that a single case could bring in 500 million yuan.

This could even allow him to buy a small villa in the suburbs of Jincheng!
only……

Now he has just finished preparing the litigation materials of a group of people and is ready to rest.

Just happened to see the content in the group chat.

This group chat was created by him.

There are more than 400 people inside, all of whom are defendants in this defamation case.

"@勤律师, you said during the day that as long as the other party withdraws the lawsuit, there is no need to file this lawsuit, right?"

"@凌律师, I saw in the video that the other party seems to be living in a nursing home, should we find time to chat with the other party?"

"Why don't everyone give more money, don't they just want compensation? We can see if it can be done privately."

"What if the other party doesn't understand flattery?"

"Inquire, does he have any family members?"

"..."

See this series of group chats.

Ling He's heart trembled violently, and he shivered.

There was no trace of exhaustion on his face.

Quickly sent a message saying: "It's okay to find the other party to reconcile privately, but don't use violent means, let alone make trouble!"

Same sentence.

He sent it three times in a row.

Then take a screenshot.

I saved it in my mobile phone photo album so that I would not be implicated.

This kind of case...

There are simply too many defendants.

He couldn't guarantee that everyone was a good person, for fear that he would be implicated.

As a criminal defense attorney.

He knows very well what to do and what not to do.

Sometimes, even a casual sentence in a group chat...

He might also be charged with abetting a crime.

So he tried his best to distance himself from the relationship.

Simultaneously.

For safety reasons, the name of the group chat was changed to "Law-abiding Agent Defense Group".

The group chat announcement was also revised to "actively respond to the lawsuit, and resolutely refrain from doing anything illegal or disciplinary."

Done with this.

Only then did his uneasy heart relax a little.

……

Jincheng.

nursing home.

"Xiao Qin, someone came to give you money again."

Zhang Qingyuan and Li Weiguo trotted up to Qin Mu, and said excitedly.

these days.

They witnessed with their own eyes what is meant by people sitting at home and money coming from heaven.

Every three chas and fives.

Someone visited the nursing home and asked for Qin Mu by name.

After the meeting, it was about private reconciliation.

The prices offered vary.

Some open [-] yuan.

Some open [-] yuan.

Some are even more outrageous, offering 20 yuan!
unknown……

I thought Qin Mu was the underground emperor of Jincheng.

The corner of Qin Mu's mouth twitched, feeling very helpless about this.

These people's money...

He was confiscated for a penny.

The crime of defamation belongs to the crime of personal prosecution.

If he reaches a settlement in private, the other party's criminal charges will be canceled directly!
The identification of this charge is related to me.

If I don't pursue it myself, the judiciary will not help to pursue it.

"Oh, it's a pity. These days, more than a dozen people come every day. If they all accept them, they will earn 1000 million now."

"I didn't expect to be scolded by others to make so much money. I have lived for 78 years, and this is the first time I know this."

"Old Zhang, I suddenly have a bold idea, but I don't have the starting capital."

"Your bold idea, the premise is that enough people scold you."

"..."

Zhang Qingyuan and others got together and discussed "the way to make money".

Qin Mu used his personal experience, coupled with practical actions...

It opened a door to a new world for them.

But after thinking about it, they realized that they were not worthy of being abused by the whole network as a small person.

The prerequisites are blocked.

Qin Mu: "..."

Looking at this group of old men, he felt more and more guilty.

What a pure and simple old man...

Now there is a tendency to develop towards the line of outlaw fanatics.

He doesn't even care about the insults from the whole network.

"Xiao Qin, you are here to advise us, what do we do to be scolded by the whole network?"

"Will you be scolded for marrying a girl in her 20s?"

"I think it sounds better."

"You are stupid, you can't get married yet."

"..."

After Zhang Qingyuan and others discussed for a while, they looked at Qin Mu again.

Qin Mu swallowed.

Hastily backed away.

These ideas are indeed a bit bold.

It was also a route he hadn't imagined.

……

Time passed slowly.

The day before the trial.

Public security detention center.

"Yuan Cuilian, Xia Qingqing, your detention period is up, come out and go through the formalities."

The guards opened the door and let Yuan Cuilian and her daughter out.

Eight days of detention...

It's over!

The mother and daughter were so excited that they completed the formalities and signed the papers very cooperatively.

Afterwards, the mobile phone and other items were collected.

ran out of jail.

"I don't want to stay in this broken place for a day!"

Breathing the air outside the detention center, Xia Qingqing said bitterly.

Restoring a sense of freedom...

Make her extremely obsessed.

Being locked up in one place for eight days without any entertainment was a torture!
Fortunately not long.

Otherwise, she would really suffocate in it.

"Qingqing, let's...how about the defendant's case?"

Yuan Cuilian, on the other hand, was holding the subpoena tightly, always thinking about this matter.

"Mom, don't worry, let's go to the court first."

Xia Qingqing comforted her.

He took Yuan Cuilian to the court.

however……

out of court.

He was stopped by a group of lawyers.

"Beauty, xx law firm, criminal defense, has countless experience, do you want to know more about it?"

"Professional defense for 20 years, never missed."

"Beauty, other law firms are full, why don't you come to our place? I promise to help you handle the case beautifully, and your family will have no worries!"

"The court will start tomorrow. You just arrived in Jincheng today. It's a bit late, but it doesn't matter. Our law firm is very good at defamation lawsuits..."

Lawyers handed her business cards one by one.

Constantly promoting their law firm.

It was very similar to the real estate agents she saw when she came out of the subway.

"Sorry, I'm not guilty of defamation, I don't need it."

She swallowed and rejected the lawyers.

He hurried into the court with Yuan Cuilian.

Received a series of materials related to the case.

The court staff also reminded her to find a lawyer as soon as possible.

"Qingqing...there are so many lawyers here, why don't you choose one of them?"

After walking out of the court.

Yuan Cuilian looked at the lawyers gathered outside the court, and couldn't help but say.

"Then let's pick one carefully, with strong professional skills. The lawyer we found last time was too weak, and we lost the case."

Xia Qingqing thought for a while, nodded and said.

Subsequently.

The two began to choose among dozens of lawyers.

Behind these lawyers, there is a big poster with their advantages written.

And walking around...

They actually saw Zhang Wei here!

That is, the last time I refuted their lawyer together with Qin Mu!

"Don't choose him!"

The two snorted coldly and ignored Zhang Wei.

He walked towards lawyer Qi Zhaoyu opposite Zhang Wei.

"I heard that you won the lawsuit 100%?"

Yuan Cuilian raised her eyebrows, a little defiantly.

Qi Zhaoyu frowned, but said politely, "Not bad."

"Then our case...can you win?"

Followed by.

Yuan Cuilian's mother and daughter handed over the copy of the indictment, the report materials submitted by the court, etc. to Qi Zhaoyu.

Qi Zhaoyu took it and checked it carefully.

"Qin Mu again?"

After seeing the name in the plaintiff column, he couldn't help being stunned for a moment.

Today's changes in Jincheng's lawyer circle...

It can be said that it was entirely Qin Mu who facilitated it.

I heard that the hotels near Jincheng are a bit overcrowded these days, and the supply exceeds the demand.

These defendants come from all over the country, and there are a large number of them.

The essential……

They did not come alone, they were accompanied by their families.

The flow of people is very high.

Greatly stimulated the consumption in the vicinity of the court.

"What? You dare not take Qin Mu's case?"

Seeing Qi Zhaoyu in a daze, Yuan Cuilian was suddenly dissatisfied.

Qi Zhaoyu heard this.

Immediately not happy.

He held his head high, stood up straight, and said proudly, "Why not dare? I have already picked up more than 800 defendants he sent!"

The voice just fell.

Both Yuan Cuilian and Xia Qingqing suspected that they had hallucinations.

"what?"

Qi Zhaoyu glanced at the two, and said lightly, "I can only be ranked second. Zhang Wei over there has already received more than 900 calls."

Today is the day before the trial.

As of today, more than 3000 defendants have almost been divided up.

Among various law firms, he ranks second.

Zhang Wei ranked first by virtue of his excellent sentence commutation defense, and has accumulatively received more than 900 defendant representation rights.

Linghe Law Firm, ranked third, has accumulated more than 500 defendant representation rights.

The remaining defendants...

All were divided up by other law firms.

"So much? Are they all told by Qin Mu?"

Yuan Cuilian, mother and daughter, were almost dumbfounded after hearing this.

They were only detained for eight days.

But the outside world...

Suddenly I couldn't understand it.

Where did so many defendants come from?
"They are all guilty of defamation. They left messages under other people's videos and got violent online. They are different from you. You are picking quarrels... Wait, your names are Yuan Cuilian and Xia Qingqing?"

Qi Zhaoyu looked down at the copy of the complaint and was taken aback again.

He had never met Yuan Cuilian and Xia Qingqing.

But when it comes to cases these days...

Understand the whole story of the crime of defamation.

It is very clear where the source of this defamation incident is.

Yuan Cuilian and Xia Qingqing looked at each other, and nodded to admit their identities.

The faces of the two of them were a little ugly.

they……

It was completely unexpected that Qin Mu could be so insane!

What kind of person are you fighting against?

"Then... can you win this case?"

After half an hour.

Xia Qingqing couldn't help asking again.

Qi Zhaoyu read the case carefully, and analyzed carefully: "It's a bit difficult to fight, but... the sentence reduction is still sure."

In this case.

Qin Mu sued the two for their actions, suspected of breaking the law and committing crimes.

Penalties for breaking the law are lighter.

But the crime is the crime of violating citizens' personal information and the crime of picking quarrels and provoking trouble.

These two charges were not triggered by the same behavior.

Publishing the information of Qin Mu and others on the Internet is a crime of violating citizens' personal information, and shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of less than three years or criminal detention.

Publicly announcing the verdict on the Internet, targeting Qin Mu and others, and maliciously provoking and exploiting the emotions of netizens are all crimes of picking quarrels and provoking trouble, and shall be sentenced to imprisonment or criminal detention for not more than five years.

The law of combined punishment for several crimes applies.

In other words, the maximum sentence for the two can reach eight years.

As for how many years, it depends on the evidence presented by the other party and the results of one's own defense.

"so long?"

Yuan Cuilian's mother and daughter turned pale after hearing this.

Not only does the lawsuit have a low chance of winning, but you may even go to jail after the fight!

This result was totally unexpected to them.

"its not right."

Qi Zhaoyu glanced at the two of them in surprise, and then glanced at the receipt time on the summons.

I couldn't help asking: "The subpoena was in your hands a few days ago, why did you only find a lawyer now? Did you realize the seriousness of the problem?"

Yuan Cuilian mother and daughter smiled bitterly.

no answer.

They can never say...

Are you in the detention center these days?
……

nursing home.

On the eve of court.

The atmosphere in the nursing home became agitated quietly.

"The court will start tomorrow. Everyone get up early. I heard that there are many defendants. If you go late, there will be no seats in the auditorium!"

"Three thousand and two hundred defendants, it's worth it to see such a trial in my life!"

"The only pity is that Xiao Qin is a dead-headed person who doesn't accept any money delivered to his door."

"That's right, tens of thousands per person, if they are all given away, it will be more than [-] million, right?"

"..."

Listening to the discussion of Zhang Qingyuan and others, Qin Mu couldn't help but smile bitterly.

The court will be held tomorrow.

Lao Zhang and the others were even more excited than themselves.

obviously.

This is a group of old men whose style of painting has completely gone wrong.

And Wang Dachui is still busy with personal relationship issues, and has already asked for almost a month's leave.

And Zhang Wei has already gone to accept the defense of other defendants.

So this case...

He did not hire a lawyer, but planned to defend himself in person.

Also.

Qing Lan also sent him a message: "up, the court will start tomorrow, do your best, and try to send the one who hit the hammer in!"

The corner of Qin Mu's mouth twitched, and he simply replied "Thank you".

Qinglan stayed in Jincheng for a while.

Now I have returned to Zizhou.

But also very concerned about this case.

after all……

In order to sue the whole network, Qin Mu borrowed 600 million according to her!
If you lose the lawsuit, you will really lose everything.

of course.

She still believed in Qin Mu's strength, otherwise she would not have lent money to Qin Mu so decisively.

……

The next day.

It was just dawn.

Near the Jincheng court, in various homestays and hotels, there was an undercurrent.

Defendants one by one...

Accompanied by his family, he went to the court anxiously.

At the gate of the court, meet up with other "teammates".

Law firms, large and small, held up signs and stood outside the court.

roll call in advance.

Prevent someone from being late.

The ones with the largest number of people were naturally Zhang Wei Law Firm, Qi Zhaoyu Law Firm, and Linghe Law Firm.

Dozens of other law firms, large and small, have more or less received representation from more than a dozen defendants.

At nine o'clock.

All the defendants gathered under the command of their attorneys, and the scene was spectacular.

unknown……

I thought they were doing some kind of big sports meeting.

And the court side.

Also extremely nervous.

In order to maintain order, a large number of bailiffs and other security forces were mobilized.

To prevent accidents in this large-scale trial.

"What sin did we do..."

Looking at the dense security forces all around, the mood of these defendants is very complicated.

Subsequently.

Following their respective lawyers, they walked into the court.

Under the guidance of the staff who were full of vigilance, they walked to the waiting areas they had divided.

Space in the Inquisition Chamber is limited.

It is impossible to accommodate 3000 people at the same time.

therefore.

When their cases are not heard, they need to wait in the waiting area.

The same goes for family members.

During the formal trial, family members can enter the auditorium to observe.

09:30am.

Qin Mu rushed to the court with Liang Chengbin, Bai Xuelan, and Hua Li.

He was also stunned by the spectacular scene in front of him.

"Brother Qin, are... are these all defendants?"

Liang Chengbin opened his mouth, looking hesitant to speak.

Shock was written all over his face.

They go all the way.

It was found that each large resettlement room was full of people waiting for trial.

"That's right, they...are all the people who abused us online on various platforms."

Qin Mu took a deep breath and said seriously.

Although these people seem innocent now, not long ago...

Each of them held an invisible butcher's knife in their hands, constantly attacking them with sharp words.

and this……

It's just the tip of the iceberg of cyberbullying.

His serious purpose is actually to make most of the people under the iceberg...

Realize the seriousness of the problem.

Behaviors such as online defamation, attacking others, and attacking personality all have serious consequences!
Adults should pay the corresponding price for their actions!

No one can be an exception!
