Chapter 639: Confession is lenient, and the more you talk, the more lenient it gets
Director He and Director Wang, one is a prosecutor who has been engaged in the investigation of malfeasance in the procuratorial system for many years, and the other is a senior case-handling officer of the Commission for Discipline Inspection, both of whom have rich experience in interrogating criminal suspects. Therefore, when they began to interrogate Ye Ming, they were all full of confidence, thinking that it would not take long to break Ye Ming's psychological defense line and make him confess completely.
According to their strategy, at the beginning of the interrogation, after they first asked Ye Ming about the basic situation as usual, Director He, who presided over the interrogation, said straightforwardly: "Ye Ming, you are from the Local Taxation Bureau, and you are a public servant, and you should know in your heart: one of us is from the procuratorate and the other is from the Commission for Discipline Inspection, and now I am looking for you for questioning, there must be a reason, and you must be suspected of violating discipline and law or even committing a crime." In accordance with the principle of handling cases with leniency and strictness in resistance, we would like to give you a chance to take the initiative to confess and confess all your violations of discipline and law. We will record the circumstances of your confession, which can be used as a statutory mitigating circumstance when you face disciplinary or criminal punishment in the future, and can reduce the punishment against you. We are not in a hurry, give you ten minutes to think about it, and after ten minutes we hope that you can truthfully explain your problem. ”
As he spoke, Director He looked at his watch, nodded to Ye Ming, and motioned for ten minutes to consider the time and start counting now.
Ye Ming once heard Shi Yingkai talk about the tactics of the anti-corruption bureau officers of the procuratorate when interrogating suspects, and knew that they would first use a trick: not to tell the suspect what criminal evidence the procuratorate had in his possession, let him confess first, and tell him that he could strive for leniency if he confessed. In this case, many suspects with poor psychological quality will panic in their hearts, and they will guess in their minds which of their corruption will be bribery evidence. At the same time, he was tempted by the words of "leniency", so he began to try to explain some problems exploratory. And the problems he confessed are very likely to be new criminal acts that have not been grasped by the procuratorate. In this way, the suspect's questions will become wider and wider, the facts of violations and crimes will become more and more, and the procuratorate's gains will be greater and greater. Resist strictness and go home for the New Year", it is estimated that this is how it came.
Ye Ming remembers: At that time, Shi Yingkai also gave an example, that is, the corruption and bribery case of a cadre of the Xinleng County Local Taxation Bureau in the nineties of the last century. This case was sponsored by Shi Yingkai. The cadre involved in the case is surnamed Gan, whose name is Gan Zhiyi, and before the case, he was the section chief of the collection and management section of the Xinleng County Local Taxation Bureau. This section chief is very greedy, almost to the point of plucking the feathers of a goose, and there are many taxpayers who report him, and he has been summoned several times by the anti-corruption bureau of the procuratorate. However, this Gan Zhiyi has a very good psychological quality, and every time he does not explain the problem, and the evidence provided by those whistleblowers is insufficient, and he has a good relationship with the leaders of the Local Taxation Bureau, so every time he is summoned 24 hours later, he is picked up by the leaders of the Local Taxation Bureau from the procuratorate.
Later, when the Anti-Malfeasance Investigation Bureau of the Xinleng County Procuratorate was investigating and dealing with a case of tax evasion by colluding with tax enterprises and using false invoices, it found that several invoices were issued from the Invoice Management Station of the Collection and Management Section of the Xinleng County Local Taxation Bureau, so they wanted to summon Gan Zhiyi to understand the situation, ask him to identify whether the invoices were sent by their department, and ask him to testify if necessary.
In fact, this case does not have anything to do with Gan Zhiyi. However, Shi Yingkai, the director of the Malfeasance Investigation Bureau at the time, had heard of Gan Zhiyi's name for a long time, and knew that he had been in and out of the anti-corruption bureau of the procuratorate several times, but because there was no evidence and he himself did not open his mouth. So, when summoning Gan Zhiyi this time, Shi Yingkai played a little trick, not telling him why he was summoned, but first asking him to think about what was wrong with him and whether there was any illegal situation that he needed to confess to the procuratorate.
Gan Zhiyi has been in and out of the procuratorate several times, although she has retreated every time, but the so-called "walking too much at night, you will always encounter ghosts", he himself knows how serious his problems are. Therefore, after being summoned by Shi Yingkai again, he felt a little uneasy in his heart, and after Shi Yingkai finished saying those few words, although he still fought with silence as before, his expression had already shown a little panic.
This trace of panic did not escape the eyes of Shi Yingkai, who has extremely rich experience in handling cases.
So, he patiently confronted Gan Zhiyi, and both sides were silent.
After half an hour like this, Shi Yingkai saw that fine beads of sweat began to ooze from Gan Zhiyi's forehead, so he said unexpectedly: "Gan Zhiyi, let me tell you the truth: this time we summoned you to have conclusive evidence, I hope you think it clearly for yourself, don't miss the best opportunity to confess." After we have shown you the relevant evidence, if you want to confess, it can only be regarded as a truthful confession of your problems, not a frank confession, which cannot be used as a mitigating circumstance. Did you hear me clearly? ”
In fact, Shi Yingkai's words were still a means of "fraud", because at this time he did not have any evidence of Gan Zhiyi's violation of the law and crime. His so-called "conclusive evidence" actually refers to the evidence of the invoice case, not the evidence of Gan Zhiyi's crime.
This kind of ambiguous words made Gan Zhiyi even more empty-hearted. After hesitating for a long time, he raised his head and asked hesitantly, "Director Shi, I really can't remember what is wrong with me. If you have any evidence, can you give me a hint and see if I can remember? ”
When Shi Yingkai heard his words, he couldn't help but rejoice in his heart: It seems that there is definitely a drama today! Under normal circumstances, if the suspect asks the person to be interrogated to provide a little clue, then he wants to confess, but he still has a fluke mentality in his heart, hoping to only explain the problems that the procuratorate has mastered, and does not want to bring out other problems on his own.
So, Shi Yingkai reminded him: "You are responsible for the purchase and approval of invoices in the collection and management department, have you provided invoices to taxpayers for personal gain?" ”
As soon as these words came out, Gan Zhiyi's expression changed greatly, beads of sweat rolled down his face, and after a long time, he finally began to explain that he privately supplied invoices to some builders to help them evade huge taxes, and then he himself withdrew 20% of the benefit fee from them. None of the facts of the crime he confessed were known to the procuratorate in advance, and they were purely accidental.
Next, according to Gan Zhiyi's confession, Shi Yingkai immediately took criminal detention measures against him, put him in a detention center, and then intensified his interrogation again and again, forcing him to confess to other embezzlement and bribery involving more than 2 million yuan......
It was precisely because he knew these interrogation techniques of the procuratorate that after listening to Director He's inducing words, Ye Ming did not "think about it" carefully according to his request, but smiled slightly and said, "Director He, I have nothing to think about. I can tell you clearly: I have not violated any discipline or law, nor have I had any issues that need to be confessed! ”
