Chapter 1192 The kid spilled the beans
After the incident yesterday, Zhang Xiaoman, Zhang and others have been with the police.
Zhang Xiaoman and others, as well as Zhang Baohai, are currently being questioned, so the child is temporarily being watched by a policewoman.
The other party's face looked anxious at the moment, and he was a little stumbling when speaking.
"Lu... Bureau Lu... Team Wang, there is... a situation!"
"That child...that child said...he saw grandpa beating grandma!"
What?
Lu Chuan and Wang Zhaokai suddenly stood up.
Wang Zhaokai asked anxiously: "What's going on?"
The policewoman calmed down and quickly reported: "When the child came to their police station yesterday afternoon, I was always watching him, but at night he went back to live with his mother in the guest house."
"This morning, when the child's parents were being questioned, the child's grandfather was in charge. Then when the grandfather also went to be questioned, I continued to take care of him. I brought our children's toys to the child and played with me. He was very happy and kept telling me about his family’s affairs. ”
"Then he told me that he had a secret that he wanted to tell me, and told me not to tell anyone. Grandpa said that no one could tell this matter, but he liked me better, so he could tell me this matter. Me.”
"What did the child say?"
Lu Chuan asked.
"He said... the child told me that he saw his grandpa beating his grandma. The two of them were fighting fiercely. Then his grandpa pushed grandma to the ground and beat her until she stopped moving. Then grandpa took him with him. I went home and never saw grandma again!”
Am I stupid?
Lu Chuan couldn't help but curse.
Originally, Zhang Baohai was actually one of the important suspects, but because the other party's answers were all flawless and there was no evidence pointing to any signs of murder, so currently he was only questioned, but no other measures were taken.
Also, judging from the current investigation, everyone’s impression of Zhang Mouhai is that he is a relatively dull teacher. He belongs to the bullied group when he goes out to work. He can’t make much money. When he was in his hometown in the countryside, he was still a teacher. The kind that can't be boring.
So when I asked Chen Yaju's neighbors in the rental house yesterday about the situation related to the two families, no one among these neighbors doubted that Zhang Baohai might have killed his wife because it was impossible for this man to be too honest.
But what if what the child says is true?
"Let's go!"
Lu Chuan realized the seriousness of the problem.
Zhang Xiaoman's child has just entered elementary school. He is not very old in the second grade, that is, he is about seven or eight years old. Children of this age generally do not tell lies. He will not talk nonsense about things that are not true. Even if he says It's not complete, but it should definitely be something that happened.
But Lu Chuan didn't leave to interrogate the child. The child was still a child and had not yet reached adulthood. Some things could not be resolved through legal procedures. This is why the policewoman did not ask the child again about the specific situation of his grandfather beating his grandmother, but immediately came to Lu Chuan to report.
Inquiries against minors must go through certain special procedures. For example, care must be taken during the inquiry, and members of the Next Generation Committee must be present.
There must be supervision, surveillance video of the whole process, and no verbal guidance. These are very strict requirements. Lu Chuan also left to go through the formalities in this regard.
Lu Chuan is the deputy director of the High-tech Zone Bureau, so coordination must be simpler. In addition, these cases involve a homicide, so the relevant parties are also very cooperative.
In less than a morning, the relevant procedures had been completed, and members of the relevant committees had also sent people to the Criminal Police Brigade.
Regardless of whether it is a civil case or a criminal case, the legal effect of a confession is actually very different.
There is a type of confession called an isolated confession, which means that among the criminal facts narrated in the confession, there is no basis for inquiry or evidence chain to prove the authenticity of the confession. This kind of confession does not have any legal effect.
For example, when a person goes to the police station to report a crime and says that he has killed someone, but there is no target of the murder, no name, no time, no physical location, etc., and there is no evidence that anyone was killed, then this kind of confession It can be regarded as an isolated confession and cannot be used as legal evidence.
Although Zhang Xiaoman's child is not very old, his confession is still intact. It can be used as evidence if other supporting conditions are met. Of course, when Zhang Xiaoman's child is a forced confession, it cannot be used as evidence alone. There must be other supporting evidence.
In addition, because of the special nature of this case, there must be a third-party relevant agency present. For example, Lu Chuan has now invited members of the My Care, Next Generation Committee.
This is a preventive measure to prevent the police from using inappropriate means during the questioning process, which may cause psychological trauma to minors.
In addition, because Zhang Xiaoman’s child is relatively young, his confession may be influenced or controlled by his parents, and this possibility is inevitable. Therefore, in the process of the academy, it is important to know what can and cannot be believed.
Regarding the entrance of minors in the law, there are relatively clear regulations that minors under the age of 16 need to be accompanied by a guardian when they are absent from work, while those over 26 do not need to be accompanied.
During the questioning process, the policewoman accompanying the child was still asked to question the child through chatting.
It's just different from when the child told him the secret just now. This time, the policewoman mainly followed some of the core issues listed by Lu Chuan and Wang Zhaokai, and had a more in-depth communication with the child's secrets.
After all, the child is still young, only seven or eight years old.
Although his grandfather told the child not to say anything after the incident, such a young child couldn't hold back what happened so quickly. The whole story of the case was restored in fragments by the child's words.
According to the children, they left Haizhou to return to their hometown. That day, grandfather and grandmother suddenly started fighting. Grandpa knocked grandma to the ground and hit each other hard. He jumped on grandma and asked grandpa to stop fighting, but Grandpa didn't listen.
Later, the grandma lay on the ground and stopped moving. The child's grandfather, Zhang Baohai, packed up his things, took the child, and prepared to leave the rental house. Before leaving the rental house, the child's grandfather asked the child to lock the door, and then let the child exit from the rental house. Climbed out of the only window.
After that, the two people left the rental house and returned to their hometown. The child never saw his grandmother again.
Moreover, when video chatting with his mother in his hometown in the countryside, his grandfather told his children not to mention anything about grandma or anything about grandma.
