Chapter 933: Pillars of the Legalist Family
Not to mention that those three people could not accept the death penalty, even the restaurant guests who hated them extremely were stunned, in the eyes of normal people, even if this kind of person bought and sold sick and dead meat, since there were no dead people, they would generally not be sentenced to death, and would be exiled for twenty years at most.
Because Ning'an County has become a pilot of the Criminal Palace, the officials of the Criminal Palace in Ning'an will take turns to watch Fang Yun's trial of the case.
I saw an old Hanlin of the torture hall squeeze out of the crowd, walked to the door of the main hall, stood still outside the threshold, arched his hand, and said, "Fang Xusheng, will this sentence be too heavy?"
Fang Yun's face did not change, he looked at Na Hanlin and said: "There are two prerequisites for the death penalty, one is that it can only be used for criminals whose crimes are extremely serious, and the other is that it can only be applied to specific crimes, such as theft, fighting, etc., will not be sentenced to death. Does Lu Hanlin have any objections?"
Indeed, the death penalty does have these two conditions. Lu Hanlin said. He is not obstructing Fang Yun, on the contrary, he stands up at this moment, is to help Fang Yun, if Fang Yun cannot give a reasonable enough reason, then Fang Yun will change the verdict as soon as possible, there will be no negative impact, if Fang Yun has enough reasons, then he can convince more people and make everyone understand this verdict better.
Fang Yun said: "Then, let's talk about the first condition first, if I arrive half an hour late today, those three people will die, and the rest of them may also be terminally ill, and it is difficult to completely cure them." And I don't know how many people are affected by the sick and dead meat they sell, I am afraid that some people will be weaker because of eating sick and dead meat, and they will not die but die early. What's more, the plague that occurred this time was the plague of the demon clan. Can all of this be judged as a crime with extreme severity?"
"What Fang Xusheng said is. β
LΓΌ Hanlin and the rest of the people had a lot of www.biquge.info fun, and in terms of the crime of being serious, it was worse than murder.
Fang Yun said: "Then, let's talk about the second condition. For the crime of poisoning, ordinary poisoning will not be sentenced to death as long as no one dies. But does poisoning in a public place with so many people apply to the death penalty?"
"Although the laws of each country are different. However, if poisoning is done in a place where there are many people, even if the person is not poisoned, the death penalty is applied. It's just that highly poisonous has the ability to be absolutely lethal, while sick and dead meat does not have the ability to be absolutely lethal, so they can't be confused. Lu Hanlin said.
Although the family members of those patients also wanted the three people to die, most of them listened carefully and felt that what Lu Hanlin said made sense, after all, the other party was the Torture Hall Hanlin, but their feelings could not be identified.
Fang Yun said: "Due to the backwardness of the human legal system. Some cases do not have accurate charges and need to be decided after review by the Three Laws Division or the Criminal Palace, but this county is a pilot and can be reviewed without the Three Legal Divisions, unless the Criminal Palace objects, a certain amount of improvement can be made according to the law. And in the law, there are no charges of selling plague or making plague, so what the county says is right?"
Indeed, there is something flawed in the laws of the Terrans. Lu Hanlin said.
Fang Yun continued: "Since there are no plague-related crimes. Then the county should cite a similar charge and replace the plague with poison. β
Lu Hanlin said: "These plagues are indeed no less virulent, but in fact, they only regard the plague as a poison that is not very toxic. It can be said to be a laxative for strict zhΓ²ng, not arsenic. It was not intended to kill people intentionally, of course, in essence, to cause serious consequences. β
Fang Yun said: "What Lu Hanlin said is extremely true. Let's give an example. If someone just wants someone else to take laxatives, they end up taking arsenic by mistake and poisoning a person. How is the penalty awarded?"
"It should be considered manslaughter, and the sentence ranges from five to twenty years of exile, and it is not a capital crime. β
"But if a person mistakenly takes arsenic and poisons many people, and it involves public safety, how can the punishment be punished?"
"Because the circumstances are too severe, the death penalty should be imposed. β
Fang Yundao: "In view of the fact that these people have been trafficking and spreading the plague for a long time and on a large scale, and almost all of them have died, although the attempted murder should also be sentenced heavily, I wonder if Lu Hanlin still has any objections?"
Lu Hanlin didn't speak, pondered for a moment, and said, "How about Fang Xusheng get rid of the concept of 'poisoning', sentence a completely new crime, and then have it approved by the Holy Court?"
Fang Yun thought for a moment and said, "Okay, this official will change the charge." Since poison and plague are both dangerous things, it is better to change the charge of poisoning and directly define it as 'the crime of releasing dangerous things'. However, in order to distinguish this crime from crimes such as murder, there is a qualifying condition, which is to endanger the safety of the public. If poisoning involves only one person, it is intentional homicide, and if it is in a public place or in a large area, endangering public safety, it is the crime of 'disseminating dangerous things'. β
Lu Hanlin was stunned for a moment, lowered his head and thought for a moment, then raised his head suddenly, and said: "Fang Xusheng is a great talent, it is better to be a lower official! This crime is extremely appropriate, not a word can be changed, and the torture hall must not refuse! Fang Xusheng should be the pillar of the Legalist family!"
When everyone saw that even the Torture Hall Hanlin admired Fang Yun immensely, they relieved their hearts.
Lu Hanlin was polite. Fang Yun modestly said, this is actually a very common crime in later generations, which has been accumulated by the wisdom of countless judicial elites.
As long as the Torture Hall approves this crime, it can not only sentence the three people to death, but also form more expansions around the "crime of putting dangerous things", and perhaps an article related to this crime will be published on the "Holy Way" next month.
After completing the naming of the new crime, Fang Yun only felt that his legalist code was a little thicker, and his breath was heavier.
At this time, Yu Dianshi appeared at the side door of the lobby and gently knocked on the door frame to signal Fang Yun.
Fang Yun saw that the three people were still unconscious, so he asked Yu Dianshi to come over.
Yu Dianshi held a thick stack of files in his hand, walked over quickly, put the file on Fang Yun's desk with both hands, and then said in a low voice: "My lord, the case of the dog and Jian Yashi has been preliminarily tried. The circumstances of Jian Ya are strict, and some people may be implicated. There are also a lot of problems with dogs, but they are nothing more than bullying and dominating the market, fighting and brawls. This time, in addition to the dog and the three accomplices, the ruffians who had a relationship with the dog were all wiped out, with a total of more than 30 people. Four of them are particularly serious and may have been implicated in several homicides from years ago. One of the cases ......"
Yu Dianshi stopped suddenly.
Fang Yun knew that there was a problem, nodded, carefully flipped through the case file, and soon saw the confessions of some ruffians, in order to reduce the sentence, they confessed that those four people had killed a workshop worker.
Fang Yun looked at the name of the workshop worker, and a case that Ji Zhibai had tried last year immediately came to mind!
In the case of Ji Zhibai's trial, the murderer of the workshop worker has been apprehended, he is a worker of the same workshop, and he has been sent to the army for 20 years.
