Some netizens commented privately, how can a frenzied person like Chen Shifeng have a lawyer to help him maintain his innocence?
Indeed, with the discussion of Jiangge case in full swing, Chen Shifeng was reviled on the Internet, and even his defense lawyer was besieged by countless netizens.
It seems that legal persons often encounter such problems. Why defend the defendant when he clearly made a big mistake?
The first chapter of the criminal law book: criminal law is the greatest charter for good people and criminals.
Everyone has human rights, whether he is a good man or a criminal. In fact, lawyers not only defend criminals, but also defend people's basic rights.
Do you still remember the Nie Shubin case that caused a lot of noise in those years? Nie Shubin was identified as a major suspect by the police because he passed by the murder scene. Under the intense interrogation of the police, he admitted the fact of his murder and the police also announced the case.
A local lawyer was directly appointed to defend Nie Shubin. I didn't expect this lawyer to choose a guilty plea through communication, which is equivalent to admitting the fact of killing. As a result, Nie Shubin was sentenced to death and was shot soon after.
20 16 On February 2nd, 16, the Second Circuit Court of the Supreme Court publicly pronounced the case of Nie Shubin's intentional homicide and rape of women in the original trial, and declared Nie Shubin innocent.
Although Nie Shubin was finally rehabilitated, people can't be resurrected after death.
If the defense lawyers in those days could spare no effort to defend Nie Shubin instead of rashly proving guilt, there would be one less unjust case and one more beautiful family in the world.
At first, everyone thought that the wronged person was guilty. If even the defense lawyer thinks he is guilty, who should he sue for his injustice?
A suspect is not equal to a criminal, although sometimes the probability is very small, even close to zero. As long as the court finally fails to convict, the defendant can only be called a suspect.
Remember the movie 12 Angry Man? In this movie, 12 people act as a jury to decide whether a child is guilty or not. All the evidence proves that the child is guilty. At the first vote, 1 1 people thought he was guilty.
However, in the end, on the 8 th, the seemingly obvious evidence was overturned one by one, and finally 12 people reached an agreement that the child was innocent.
A legal person is not a god. Even in the most difficult circumstances, we should maintain respect for life.
Quote a sentence from a netizen in Zhihu.
If there is a responsible lawyer:
She Xianglin, Hugue, Luo Kaiyou, Li Jiuming, Du? The names in this long list may not appear in search engines.
