Chapter 1008: Ridiculous

Qu Mingjun was very happy.

After being happy for a while, I felt that something was wrong, and couldn't help asking, "Wasn't it reliable when I wasn't married?" ”

At this point, the prosecution interrupted the conversation between the two by asking a second witness to testify.

The second witness was a middle-aged woman, and the prosecutor introduced her as an experienced psychologist who had treated Zhuang Jia several years ago and diagnosed Zhuang Jia with sleep disorders and sleepwalking.

"Against." Mu Zi got up, "The witness's speech has nothing to do with this case. ”

The judge looked at the prosecutor.

Qin Lei hurriedly said: "Your Excellency, the defendant Zhuang Jia regarded the facts of the crime as a false story, I think her psychological condition is closely related to this case, and the psychologist can prove this." ”

The judge said: "The objection is invalid. ”

Mu Zi frowned and sat down again.

Qu Mingjun couldn't help but whispered: "Is this prosecutor stupid, if it is deduced that Zhuang Jia killed someone in a state of mental disorder, isn't it equivalent to acquittal?" ”

It is not an offence for a mentally ill person to commit homicide, because they are not legally complete human beings, i.e., they are incapacitated for civil conduct.

Mu Zi's face was slightly gloomy, "If he succeeds in deducing, Zhuang Jia will indeed be acquitted, but how can we accuse Ding Houwei?" ”

In the courtroom, Qin Lei was questioning the psychiatrist.

"Do you know anyone sitting in the dock?"

"Acquaintance."

"Can you tell us how you met?"

"Probably in ...... About eleven years ago, her mom brought her to my clinic and I diagnosed her with sleep sleepwalking and treated her for about a month. ”

"Can you explain the term sleep sleepwalking?"

"Yes, sleepwalking is the strange phenomenon of getting out of bed on your own during sleep and then returning to bed to continue sleeping. Neurologically, it is a sleep disorder in which the symptoms are generally walking around the home in a half-awake state, but some people leave the home or perform some dangerous behaviors. ”

"Dangerous move...... Qin Lei's tone slowed down, pointing to Zhuang Jia, "Is it possible to kill someone without knowing it at all?" ”

The psychiatrist nodded: "It's entirely possible, some sleepwalking patients are accompanied by violent behavior, and when they wake up, the patient doesn't know anything about sleepwalking." ”

Qin Lei got the answer he wanted, the corners of his mouth hooked slightly, and he looked at the judge: "I'm done asking." ”

It was Mu Zi's turn to cross-interrogate.

"You just said that you have been treating my client for a month, how many times?" Mu Zi asked.

The witness replied: "Once a week, about four or five times." ”

"How long is each time?"

"One hour."

"Has my client's sleep disorder improved as a result of your treatment?"

The psychiatrist hesitated for a moment, then nodded, "Yes." ”

Mu Zi continued: "After a month of treatment, she returned to normal, so the treatment ended, right? ”

"Yes......"

"As far as you know, during the time my client was in therapy, she had any violent behavior while sleepwalking?"

"Nope." The psychiatrist glanced at Zhuang Jia uncomfortably.

"Did she hurt anyone while sleepwalking?"

"Nope." The psychiatrist tried to explain, "She was only nine years old at the time......

"Yes, she was only nine years old at the time, and she had just suffered a series of accidents such as her parents' divorce and her father's remarriage, and she was psychologically and emotionally traumatized, so she had sleep disorders." Mu Zi looked at the jury, "But what does this have to do with this case?"

A psychiatrist who had only seen my client five times and spent no more than five hours with him accused my client of murder on the grounds of a psychological diagnosis eleven years ago!

Eleven years ago, my client sleepwalked without any violence, but after being cured, he became so sick that he killed and dismembered his body without knowing it? Come to think of it, is it ridiculous? ”
