Chapter 497 The End of Justice (Part 2)
"."
In the reception room.
Hearing Chen Ling's words.
Xu Yun was stunned subconsciously.
If you choose to appear as a victim in a case, you may have to bear more pressure?
What does this mean?
Seeing that Xu Yun's expression was a little confused, Chen Ling couldn't help but smile and continued:
"Dr. Xu, you may not know very well, but our arrangement is like this."
"There are many victims of Internet bombings present today, the total number of individuals is about seven or eight, but they will all appear in court as 'witnesses' rather than 'victims'."
"You are the only one who has been called the 'victim' throughout the trial."
"."
Hearing this, Xu Yun once again showed a hint of astonishment on his face.
But less than half a second followed.
A sudden realization emerged in his heart, and his surprise also turned into thoughtfulness.
So that’s what happened.
Mentioned before.
In public prosecution cases, courts in various places have different standards for determining whether the victim needs to be notified to appear in court.
The 'local' here does not simply refer to each province, but covers a more basic court system.
Give an example.
In two towns under the same county, their respective courts may have different decisions on whether to notify the victim in a public prosecution.
This is a very complex legacy issue.
At present, the Supreme Court plans to make an interpretation that victims must participate in the prosecution scene, which is obviously a beneficial move for the victims.
After all, in many criminal cases nowadays, it often happens that the verdict has been out for several months, but the victim still knows nothing about it.
For example, many people have lost their mobile phones and complained about not being able to get them back. Sometimes they often talk about preferential treatment for foreigners.
But actually.
Maybe one day you don't know, the thief who stole your phone has been prosecuted, and he may even be working on the sewing machine with Fan Fanfengfeng.
It's just that the court that accepted the case had a dispute over the victim's determination, so it didn't notify you - because this kind of public prosecution will not compensate you for your losses.
But for the judicial institution, that is, the court, this may not be a good thing.
Because once the victim is notified to arrive, the court often needs to spend a lot of time explaining a bunch of litigation rights to the victim.
For example, answer a Nikkei question like "Since you won't sentence him to compensate me for the loss, why did you notify me of a court hearing?"
Moreover, this approach will also make it easier for victims to come to the court to file a complaint. Those who can file a complaint are fine, but those who do not fall within the scope of the penalty will have to go to the court to explain a lot in person.
In a nutshell
Too lazy to explain.
Undeniable.
The practice of most courts not notifying the victim to arrive may indeed be more efficient than notifying the other party.
But for the victims, this is their right to know - they can not go because they feel they cannot get compensation, but they should not not be informed of the outcome of the case.
Moreover, educating citizens about the law is what legal practitioners, especially official institutions like courts, should do.
It is obviously not appropriate to reduce this link just because you don’t want to waste time.
all in all.
This interpretation of the Supreme Court is a good thing for the victims, but it will indeed add a lot of difficulty to them at the working level of the grassroots courts.
And the Supreme Court and the others dare not complain, so who else can they hold grudges against?
The answer is ready to come——
Naturally, he is the victim chosen for interpretation.
That is.
Xu Yun.
No wonder Chen Ling informed herself to arrive early today.
No wonder she said she had to bear some pressure.
It turns out that the real purpose is here.
As for Xu Yun’s choice.
Within a few seconds, Xu Yun made a decision:
Of course I do!
Although choosing to appear in court as the only victim may cause some complaints in the grassroots courts.
But this kind of subtle complaints obviously cannot affect Xu Yun himself, nor can it hinder the development of Huadun Biotech.
Not to mention that Huadun Bioscience is backed by HKUST. Just talking about Xu Yun’s recent contributions, there is no way that the company will be deliberately stumbling.
Under this premise.
If it can be sold well to the Supreme Court, it is obviously a worthwhile deal.
Just like this.
The popularity of the topic ""Xu Yun will be convicted this year" is estimated to increase a lot after today's court hearing.
After all, according to what Chen Ling said, the attention of this live broadcast is also tens of millions
Then Xu Yun took a deep breath, sat up straight, and said to Chen Ling:
"No problem, Prosecutor Chen, I am willing to cooperate with the work of the Supreme People's Court."
"Today I leave more than a hundred kilograms of meat to you. Just tell me what you want me to do. I will obey your arrangements!"
Although Xu Yun's answer was already expected.
However, after hearing Xu Yun's statement, Chen Ling still felt a hint of joy from the bottom of his heart:
"Dr. Xu, I'll trouble you this time."
After reaching the intention to attend as the only victim, Chen Ling's mission was almost completed.
Therefore, in the following time, she gave Xu Yun a brief introduction to today's court hearing in a casual chat.
For example, the resume of the presiding judge, the specific number of people attending the case, the media participating in the hearing, etc.
Then another twenty minutes passed.
Tik Ling Ling——
The landline phone on Chen Ling's desk rang.
When Chen Ling saw this, he stopped talking with Xu Yun and picked up the microphone:
"Hello. Um. Okay, no problem."
After hanging up the phone.
Chen Ling looked at Xu Yun and made a gesture of invitation:
"Dr. Xu, it's almost time. Let Xiao Liu, the girl who guided you into the building before, take you to the lounge next to the trial court."
Xu Yun nodded:
"No problem."
After saying that, Xu Yun stood up and said goodbye to Chen Ling, and under the guidance of Xiao Liu, he went to the rest room on the second floor of the trial building.
As everyone knows.
As the highest-level judicial institution in our country, the Supreme People's Court has an extremely detailed internal division of labor and a very clear division of functions.
For example, in terms of administrative work, there are functional departments such as the Information Office, the Case Registration Division, the Trial Management Office, and the Foreign Affairs Bureau.
As for trials, there are five criminal tribunals, four civil tribunals, one environmental resources tribunal and one administrative tribunal.
The trial location of this case is the famous First Criminal Court, commonly known as the First Criminal Court.
I don’t know if it’s because he is presiding over a criminal case.
The rest room of the First Criminal Court looked very monotonous overall, with a pure prison atmosphere like a detention center - Xu Yun felt chilly as soon as he entered the room anyway, and he no longer had the desire to play with his mobile phone.
Logically speaking, the person receiving the lounge is not the defendant, so why is it such a cold color?
Fortunately, this feeling of depression did not last long, and Xiao Liu, who had led the way before, knocked on the door again:
"Dr. Xu, you are ready to go to court."
"Oh, it's coming!"
Upon hearing this, Xu Yun quickly stood up, smoothed the wrinkles on his clothes, opened the door and left the room.
The lounge is very close to the Tribunal, just around the corner from each other.
Under the leadership of Xiao Liu.
Xu Yun quickly arrived at the entrance of the First Criminal Court - the victim did not need to go through a special passage like the witness, and could enter from the main entrance together with the spectators.
Xu Yun then paused for two seconds at the entrance of the Criminal Court, took a deep breath, and strode into it.
In his previous life, Xu Yun had a friend who had a car accident in another place, and his attitude was quite cruel.
Therefore, Xu Yun's friend simply refused to compensate privately and took the offender to court. During the trial, Xu Yun attended the hearing in order to support his friend.
To be honest, the court at that time was very crude:
There are only three or four rows of chairs in a room of 20 to 30 square meters. The tables of the plaintiff and defendant are less than two meters apart. Eating garlic can even trigger a bad breath attack
Xu Yun originally thought that no matter how big the Criminal Court was, it would not be that big, but when he walked into it, he realized
My own layout is still small.
The trial court of the First Criminal Court covers an area of about 700 to 800 square meters. The auditorium area has more than a dozen rows of seats distributed like movie theater seats - these seats are not one-piece benches, but independent backrests. chair.
The trial area in front of the auditorium is located on the high platform at the end.
In the central area of the high platform is a desk for clerks and assistant judges, and behind the desk is another executive desk that is about one meter higher.
Xu Yun noticed that there were five scale chairs on the desk. They were the high-backed chairs where the presiding judge and the judges sat - there seemed to be only three chairs for ordinary court hearings.
The pedestal, chairs and tables on the high platform are all majestic brown-red, and a national emblem hangs high behind the position of the presiding judge.
The entire scene was more like a solemn conference room than a trial court, except that there were a few tables missing in the listening area.
At this moment.
The auditorium area below was already filled with media reporters from all sides, and there were several cameras surrounding the scene filming the scene from different angles.
The expressions of these media people were very excited, and many of them were chatting with people around them, making the scene a little noisy.
After all, although there are many criminal cases in the second and third instances of the Supreme Court, there are only three first-instance criminal cases like today since the founding of the People's Republic of China - don't ask which three cases, you will not read this book if you mention it.
In addition, the case itself is highly topical, involving special labels such as cyber violence, trolls and even foreign forces.
Any one of the above alone would be a fool's errand, let alone a case in which all three are present at the same time.
Therefore, the application difficulty for today's auditorium is hellish, and it is basically impossible for top official media to enter the venue.
Then under the guidance of Xiao Liu.
Xu Yun walked from the side aisle to the first row and sat on the victim's seat.
This is a separate seat in the front.
Although there was no fence like the one in the dock surrounding him, and there was no straight-dressed bailiff standing behind him, it still seemed a bit conspicuous.
In addition, Xu Yun, a "troublemaker", has been highly exposed recently, so soon, many media focused their cameras on him.
Fortunately, after experiencing the social death press conference and the dark matter press conference, Xu Yun has gained a lot of experience and his face has also become thicker.
Therefore, although facing these long guns and short cannons is still a bit awkward, it is not particularly embarrassing.
There was no one in the dock at this time, but Xu Yun noticed that in a listening area diagonally opposite to him, some observers who were obviously not members of the media were sitting.
These people are men and women, old and young.
Most of them had numb or nervous expressions and barely spoke aloud. There were also a few women in their fifties and sixties wiping away tears.
If Xu Yun expected it was good.
These people should be.
The defendant's family.
As for the other victims who opposed him, or the location of the family members of the witnesses in this trial, Xu Yun could not find them.
After all, his field of vision is relatively limited, and there are a lot of seats at the scene, so it is still difficult to find him for a while.
However, logically speaking, the area for the witness's family should be far away from the area for the defendant's family.
Other than that.
Xu Yun also saw Academician Pan, Lu Chaoyang, Zhou Shaoping and Hou Xingyuan, and their positions were also arranged very high - this was probably a request made by the Academy of Sciences to show support for Xu Yun.
Seeing Xu Yun looking at him, Academician Pan also nodded slightly towards him.
About ten more minutes passed.
The passage on the right side of the trial court was suddenly opened, and a dozen men and women of different ages wearing black work clothes filed out.
Among them was Chen Ling, who had just separated from Xu Yun.
After this group of people walked to the stage, they settled in the corresponding areas one by one:
The four people led by Chen Ling walked to the prosecutor's area beside the stage,
Three men and women in black ties approached the clerk and assistant judge.
Five men and women wearing red ties came to the scale chair.
However, no one working in any area was seated at this time.
Another moment passed.
Several bailiffs led seven or eight handcuffed young men and women out of another passage and stopped in front of the dock.
See these people show up.
There was a commotion in the family listening area.
There was even an aunt who couldn't help but stand up. Her expression looked very excited, but she finally sat back down after being comforted by the people around her.
Then a young man walked up to the clerk's position, holding a stack of documents in his hand and said:
"Please be quiet."
The scene fell silent.
Then the young man looked around and continued in an emotionless voice:
"This is the court hearing site of the First Criminal Court of China's Supreme Court. The trial is about to begin, and the process will be broadcast live on major Internet platforms."
"Please keep quiet. Court discipline is now announced."
"1. Except for those who are allowed to enter the trial area due to work needs of the Supreme Court, no other personnel are allowed to enter the trial area"
"Two, you are not allowed to applaud, make noise, make noise, or engage in other behaviors that hinder trial activities. You are not allowed to speak or ask questions without the permission of the presiding judge..."
The young man talked a lot and just finished his speech.
Wait until the process is completed.
Everyone took their seats in turn.
The presiding judge of this trial is a female judge who also has short hair, named He Qiong. She is also the current president of the First Criminal Tribunal and a member of the Judicial Committee of the Supreme People's Court.
After He Qiong took the seat, he was stunned at first, and then picked up a file from the table with a calm expression, not showing the pressure of the live broadcast of the trial.
Then she paused and said to the audience:
"Hello everyone, I am He Qiong, the presiding judge of this trial."
"In accordance with Articles 264 and 266 of the Chinese Criminal Procedure Law, the First Trial Chamber of the Supreme People's Court will conduct a public trial today on the 2.9 Internet violence case and related derivative cases."
"At the same time, in accordance with the provisions of Article 137, Paragraph 2, of the Chinese Civil Procedure Law, it is now up to me to verify the identities of the parties involved in the litigation."
"The plaintiff is the Supreme People's Procuratorate of China, and the prosecutor is prosecutor Chen Ling. Have I arrived in court?"
Chen Ling raised her hand:
"Presiding judge, I have arrived in court."
Then He Qiong looked at Xu Yun's position in the audience and said:
"This case is a case from private prosecution to public prosecution. The victim's name is Xu Yun, male, born in 1998, unmarried. Has he arrived in court?"
Xu Yun also raised his hand:
"Presiding judge, I have arrived in court."
He Qiong nodded, and his tone became more solemn:
"The defendant in this case, Chen Xuting, female, was born in 1997. Yang Jie, male, was born in 1995. Has Guo Fang arrived in court?"
After a while.
Several young men and women with drooped heads in the audience sent feebly replies:
"Come to court."
".Attend court."
"."
He Qiong then informed him of the rights and obligations of the trial, and after evading questioning, he officially announced the start of the trial:
"In this case, the trial has begun, and now the prosecutor will present the case."
Upon hearing this, Chen Ling immediately stood up from his position, holding the file in his hand, and said calmly:
"Presiding judge, judge."
"In accordance with the provisions of the law, as a national prosecutor, I will now describe the facts of the 2.9 cyber violence case prosecuted by our court."
"On January 10, 2023, the defendant, whose real name is Chen Xuting and whose online name is [Who can save me from the clutches of the devil], published a number of 'scumbag' remarks on social media that slandered the victim's abortion, PUA and other bad behaviors, and changed his status Set to invisible”
“On February 9, 2023, the defendant, whose real name is Guo Fang and whose screen name is [Tiaotiao wants to eat full], posted a fake video of a pet cat accidentally eating the victim’s product and dying on social media, and through the defendant Zheng Lei’s The studio heated up the topic ”
"At the same time, the defendant Chen Xuting modified the defamatory content published in advance to be public, and Guo Fang forwarded it."
“On February 11, the number of hot topic searches exceeded 400 million.”
Chen Ling gave a general introduction to the situation and corresponded to the identities of each defendant.
When introducing [Who can save me from the clutches of the devil], that is, the girl named Chen Xuting, Xu Yun couldn't help but look at the other person.
Of course.
This has nothing to do with the other party claiming to be his girlfriend, but because
Chen Xuting's situation is quite special. (Let me explain in advance, this is a real case)
The young man named Yang Jie standing next to Chen Xuting is her current boyfriend, the man who accompanied Chen Xuting during the abortion.
Yang Jie studied at a vocational high school in Luzhou, while Chen Xuting stayed in Shanghai all year round. The two were in a long-distance relationship before.
According to the information Xu Yun had learned before.
Chen Xuting and Yang Jie have always spent money lavishly. When their living expenses could not support their expenses, they actually thought of a cool operation:
Go to the Internet to sell welfare films - the kind with masks on.
And it is precisely because it has been exposed on the Internet for a long time that the overseas NGO contacted them this time.
At the same time, both Chen Xuting and Yang Jie’s parents are honest and ordinary people:
Yang Jie's hometown is a small county town, and his parents run a small workshop that sells carburetor parts, earning about tens of thousands a year.
Chen Xuting's parents were both vegetable farmers with average incomes. Chen Xuting's father even rescued children who fell into the water twice.
Of course.
The parent's condition is independent of the child's behavior.
Therefore, nothing can be said about this situation [hateful people must be pitiful], and Xu Yun cannot let them have the heart of the Holy Mother because of this.
But comparing the behavior of parents and children, it is really frustrating - at least there is nothing wrong with sighing.
After Chen Ling introduced the case.
She picked up another file from the table and said to He Qiong:
"Judge He, the document in my hand is evidence collected by comrades from the security department and information department."
"The evidence proves that the actions of Chen Xuting, Guo Fang and others are not simply to gain popularity, but have extremely clear incentives for foreign interference."
"For example, Guo Fang has an ICBC card with the ending number 6345, and her account received six transfers on December 17, 2022, and January 11, 2023."
"The payers of these six transfers are all a man named Zhao Ronghe. According to the available information, it can be determined that the other party is the internal contact person of an NGO organization in Singapore and has planned many high-risk behaviors."
< br>
"Another example is that Zheng Lei once received a large amount of electronic cryptocurrency"
Compared to previous case narratives.
The evidence presented by Chen Ling this time is undoubtedly more eye-catching.
Although things such as electronic currency are technically difficult to trace, even provincial-level economic investigations are generally very difficult.
But when the national team takes action, the so-called high technology is another matter.
After all, as long as you exchange legal currency, your account can basically be locked.
This time.
Xu Yun in the audience also listened with interest.
After all, it is different from event files.
Even Xu Yun could not access this kind of evidence involving the security department and funds before the trial.
Therefore, he could only roughly know that Chen Xuting and others had received overseas funds, but he did not understand the specific amount and through what channels the communication was conducted.
Of course.
Although Chen Ling's evidence is very sufficient, it does not reveal everything.
For example, the main culprits who discredited Xu Yun were Advion and Vilosi, competitors of Huadun Biotechnology. The source of the incident was to prevent "One Mantis" from seizing the market.
But after the Chinese Academy of Sciences cut off a piece of flesh from these enterprises, the names of these institutions were uniformly changed to overseas NGOs.
Xu Yun didn't care about this either.
After all
He also had a share in the original compensation.
For example, the access procedures promised by Bayer should be passed by the end of this month, and by then the beetles will be able to reach their home base in Europe.
His eyes returned to reality.
After Chen Ling finished speaking.
He Qiong looked at Xu Yun in the audience and asked him:
"Does the victim have any objection to the situation described by the prosecutor?"
Xu Yun shook his head:
"No objection."
"Are there any links that need to be added?"
"No."
Actually.
Qiu Sheng had mentioned to Xu Yun before the sexy operation of proving the Jade Syndrome, but Xu Yun chose to give up after thinking about it.
Although he was indeed under a lot of pressure during the days when he was exposed on the Internet, if he took a test, he would probably be able to make a true diagnosis.
But the word jade syndrome is really not a good thing these days
Just like a certain up owner is called the only beneficiary of 5g, the beneficiaries of jade syndrome are also quite numerous, just a few people.
Xu Yun had never thought about changing and playing the challenge without laughing, so there was no need to bring out this thing.
Anyway, even if such a piece of evidence is taken away, the evidence of Chen Xuting and others' crimes is still sufficient, so there is no need to add any unnecessary extravagance.
After getting Xu Yun's reply.
He Qiong looked at the defendant in the audience again:
"Chen Xuting, do you have any objection to this?"
Chen Xuting still had her head drooped, her expression dull and silent:
"."
"Please answer my question, Chen Xuting."
Chen Xuting continues:
"."
See this situation.
Audition area.
A haggard-looking woman couldn't help but stand up and said with a cry:
"Xu Ting, please speak quickly. Do you think the country doesn't know what you have done? Are you going to make us angry to death?"
Snap!
Before the woman finished speaking, He Qiong slapped the wood hard:
"Family members please keep silence in the courtroom. This is a warning. Next time you speak out without permission, you will be expelled by the bailiff."
The woman then sat down slumped and sobbed on the shoulder of a thin, dark-skinned man next to her.
In the dock.
Chen Xuting, who had shawl hair, glanced at her mother, and opened and closed the corners of her dry mouth a few times, as if she was debating whether to speak.
He Qiong noticed this keenly and asked:
"Chen Xuting, please answer my question. Do you have any objection to what Prosecutor Chen said?"
Chen Xuting was silent for a few seconds:
"No objection."
"Now let me add a few questions. Do you know the specific process of this NGO smear plan? That Guo Fang will forward your article?"
"I don't know, they didn't tell me."
"Did they give you the specific quotation or the amount you mentioned yourself?"
"The price they gave."
"Okay, is there anything you want to defend yourself now?"
Chen Xuting paused for a while this time, with a prayer in her eyes:
"Judge He, I am willing to plead guilty, but the money was frozen by the economic investigation due to overseas remittances the day after it arrived. I didn't spend a penny. Can this make the sentencing lighter?"< br>
When He Qiong heard this, a hint of surprise appeared on his calm face:
"Didn't you spend a penny? Because the overseas remittance was frozen?"
Chen Xuting nodded:
"Yes."
He Qiong flipped through the documents a few times and frowned:
"But Chen Xuting, I need to explain to you that there is no problem with the source of funds in that overseas remittance account, so the economic investigation will not freeze the card - if the money is brought in from abroad, the card will be frozen. Those who make frequent cross-border transfers Users have already had their opinions.”
"In addition, according to the clues we have, your card will have no money when you are arrested."
Chen Xuting was stunned:
"What?"
Then He Qiong glanced at her and sighed, seemingly guessing the truth:
"Chen Xuting, all the money on your card was transferred to the account of an online gambling website on the day it arrived."
“The reason why the economic investigation freezes the card is also because the transaction involves online gambling, not overseas remittances – in fact, if you are not controlled due to cyber violence, the economic investigation will also summon you for suspected online gambling.”
"In addition, according to our inspection of the recharge account, the person who binds the cash withdrawal card to that account is exactly"
"Yang Jie."
Hear this.
Chen Xuting's body swayed subconsciously.
Fortunately, the bailiff nearby helped her in time and prevented her from being embarrassed.
However, Chen Xuting did not care about her situation at all.
Instead, he suddenly turned his head and looked at Yang Jie, and said in a hoarse voice:
"Yang Jie, did you lie to me?!" Note:
Nine thousand words in four consecutive days, please vote for me! ! !
