Chapter 816 Uncontrollable Anger
"That night, why didn't you stop them from entering the house and call the police?" The female prosecutor felt sympathetic to Shi Yalan in her heart.

"That night, when a woman saw her man lying on the same bed with another woman in her own home, do you know how it feels?" Shi Yalan asked without answering.

When she looked at the female prosecutor, she was surprisingly calm. When she spoke, her eyes were as calm as water, and there was no wave in the ancient well, which made people feel inexplicably terrified.

The male prosecutor next to the female prosecutor was about to interrupt Yalan's speech, but was stopped by the female prosecutor, who did not speak.

"Let me tell you, it's disappointment, it's complete disappointment. The family relationship I tried to maintain has collapsed... There is no hope in sight. What can a woman who can't see any hope do?" Shi Yalan said at this time The voice raised an octave.

Shi Yalan didn't explode as the presiding judge imagined, but gradually calmed down again.

When a person is extremely angry, he can actually restrain his emotions and let his emotions return to normal little by little. How many people can do this? !

This was the transformation of Shi Yalan. Even Shi Rong, who was sitting in the auditorium, felt a little strange to the daughter who had been raised by him for more than 20 years in the dock. Became a stranger, maybe the daughter really grew up.

"After killing the two, what did you do?" The female prosecutor continued to perform her duties.

"I threw them into the vegetable cellar in the courtyard, and the next day I found gasoline to burn their bodies, and then someone called the police." Shi Yalan said lightly.

"Presiding judge, I'm done questioning." The female prosecutor stopped asking questions.

"The appellant is Yalan's defender asking questions." The presiding judge looked at Fang Yi.

"Appellant, how is your relationship with your husband, the victim Qi Qingshan?" Fang Yi asked.

"Not good." Shi Yalan replied.

"To what extent?" Fang Yi asked.

"She often beat and scolded me, and burned me with cigarette butts." After speaking, Shi Yalan rolled up her sleeves and raised her arm high: "He burned five places on this arm with cigarette butts."

After finishing speaking, Shi Yalan switched to another arm: "He burned this arm in eight places with cigarette butts. I also have burns on my body. In summer, I can only wear long sleeves. I am afraid that others will see it, and I am afraid of being burned." joke."

After finishing speaking, Shi Yalan turned her head to the side: "The scar next to my ear was slapped by him with a belt. I have more than 30 scars on my body, and many of them have already grown up, so I can't see it.

The most serious time, I was beaten by him and stayed in the hospital for more than half a month. My parents called me and my husband and I to go back to dinner. I could only tell them that I was on a business trip and I was not in this city..."

At this moment, Shi Yalan closed her eyes, and tears ran down her face: "I endured it, and I also reported to the police, but in the end..., some things can only be relied on by oneself, really only by oneself."

There was no sound in the courtroom.

"Presiding judge, the defender has finished questioning." Fang Yi said.

After listening to Shi Yalan's words, Fang Yi felt that his goal had been achieved.

That's right, his purpose of doing this is to let everyone in the gallery listen to what happened to the appellant. It is one thing to read the report, but another thing to listen to the appellant in court. It was completely different, and the anger at the scene could even raise everyone's sympathy for the appellant to the extreme.Let everyone understand that although the appellant was wrong to kill, the victim was also at fault.

"Do the prosecutors, defenders, and appellants have any new evidence to submit?" After a while, the presiding judge asked.

"No." All three said.

……

"The court investigation is over and now for court debate.

Before the debate, the court draws the attention of both the prosecution and the defense that the debate should mainly focus on determining charges, sentencing and other controversial issues.Let the appellant speak first. "The presiding judge looked at Shi Yalan.

"The presiding judge, the judge: I have accumulated too many grievances in my heart because I have been abused and beaten for a long time, and I have been patient.

On the night of the incident, because of my cowardice and my fear of my husband, I kept putting up with it, but my husband and the victim, Jian Lanlan, pushed me out of the back room and openly drove me out of the back room where I slept. They slept together in front of me. .

I could no longer suppress the anger in my heart, so I killed two people in a row... I implore the court to give me a lenient punishment. With tears in Shi Yalan's calm eyes, she read the defense in her hand.

The defense opinion was compiled by herself based on what Fang Yi said when she met her for the last time.

"Next, Yalan's defender, the appellant, will speak." The presiding judge looked at Fang Yi.

"The presiding judge and the judge: the defender believes that although the appellant Shi Yalan killed two people in a row, which constituted the crime of intentional homicide, the victim was at serious fault, and the appellant's murder was caused by the anger of the two defendants. should be sentenced to death. The specific reasons are as follows:
Paragraph 40 of Article [-] of No.[-] of the "Criminal Law" stipulates that the death penalty is only applicable to criminals who have committed extremely serious crimes.For criminals who should be sentenced to death, if it is not necessary to execute immediately, they can be sentenced to death with a two-year suspension of execution.

In addition, in October [-], the Supreme People's Court issued the "Minutes of the Symposium on Safeguarding Rural Stability in Criminal Trials by the National Courts."

The minutes pointed out that, 'We must accurately grasp the standards for the death penalty for intentional homicide.Whether to impose the death penalty on intentional homicide depends not only on whether the death of the victim is caused, but also on the overall circumstances of the case.

For intentional homicide crimes caused by intensified civil conflicts such as marriage, family, and neighborhood disputes, the application of the death penalty must be very cautious, and it should be differentiated from other intentional homicide crimes that seriously endanger public order in society.

If the victim has obvious fault or is directly responsible for the intensification of the conflict, or the defendant has statutory circumstances for a lighter punishment, the death penalty should generally not be imposed immediately. '

In this case, the victim Qi Qingshan often beat and abused the appellant Shi Yalan without reason.According to the facts ascertained by the court of first instance, Qi Qingshan often burned the appellant with cigarette butts under excuses, and beat Shi Yalan on the ground many times because of family trivial matters. In the most serious case, Qi Qingshan broke Shi Yalan's ribs for no reason. He was hospitalized for more than ten days.

At the same time, as a married man, Qi Qingshan often took the opportunity of taking photos to fool around with some young women in society and have improper sexual relations.

Qi Qingshan's appeal seriously violated the legal rights of the appellant, Shi Yalan, and also caused Shi Yalan's physical and mental harm, and also planted resentment in Shi Yalan's heart. "

In the courtroom, everyone listened quietly.
