Chapter 134 24 Hours Before Execution
wWFor death row prisoners, the most painful thing is not the moment they are executed, but the day when they are waiting for the sentence to come!
I never thought of it in my life: I would have zero-distance contact with the death row prisoner...)
In China, there are only two ways to execute death row prisoners: firing and injection death. The proportion of firing is as high as 95%.
In 2003, the Supreme People's Court of China made a judicial interpretation about death row prisoners: death row prisoners have the right to see relatives, the right to pray religiously, and the right to receive psychological counseling twenty-four hours before the execution of the death row.
It was from then on that time that as a psychological worker, it was possible to have close contact with the death row prisoner.
Most of the people engaged in psychological work are women. To a certain extent, it is difficult for them to accept contact with death row prisoners before execution. Therefore, most of this kind of work falls on the shoulders of our male compatriots.
Since I studied supernatural psychology, this kind of work has fallen on my shoulders even more "righteously". Although there are not many such work, I always encounter it a few times every few years.
So far, I have come into contact with three death row prisoners who need psychological counseling before execution.
From the time they received psychological counseling and until they were executed, I would be with them all the time for those ten hours, experiencing the last moments of their lives, and experiencing strange events after their death.
Here, I will give a full account of the three death row prisoners I have come into contact with: their evil deeds, fear before execution, repentance, and human nature.
Protagonist 1: Zhang Fu (pseudonym)
Date of execution: July 14, 2005 at 9:29 am.
That day, he was still 11 days away from his 29th birthday.
As soon as I arrived at the unit on the morning of July 13, the unit leader asked me to go to the office, and it seemed very urgent.
As soon as I walked into the office, the leader came up and gave me a file and said, "Xiao Jiang. I hope you can cooperate with the Intermediate People's Court. (I only learned about this afterwards in the Intermediate People's Court of this city.
call.)"
"What's the matter?" I asked a little surprised:
"A death row prisoner named Zhang Fu applied for psychological counseling. I hope you can take it." The leader pointed to the file in my hand and said:
I was extremely surprised by the title "Deathmist?"
The leader didn't say much, but briefly talked about the content related to the death row prisoner and psychological counseling (the part written at the beginning of this article) to me. After listening to it, I felt curious, so I made a decision in a daze. Leader 1
Seeing that I decided, I was very happy and asked me to take me to the conference room directly. At this time, there were three people sitting in the conference room. After the leader's introduction, I realized that these three people were judges, bailiffs and
driver.
Without further ado, I got into their car under the leadership of the three of them, and then drove directly to the detention center of the city.
The detention center was my first "visit" in my life.
Two thick iron doors slowly opened, and there were sentry posts at both sides of the large iron door that were above the wall. On the post were two mighty armed police comrades, holding guns and not moving, the large iron
There is a small door and a sentry guard on the left side of the door. There is an armed police guarding it, and people pass from time to time. The armed police will check the relevant documents from those who pass.
There are also patrolling armed police on the long wall, basically three steps, one post, five steps, and every whistle is very strict.
The car drove directly into the detention center. Behind the two large iron doors is a very large yard. There are official cars parked in the yard and private cars. The yard is facing two iron doors, two black iron doors and black iron doors.
On the right side is the office area of the detention center staff, which is two floors high, but not higher than the long wall. On the left side of the black iron door is the waiting area for visitors. It is not difficult to see from this layout that these two
Behind the iron door is the prisoner's detention area...
At this time, a middle-aged man wearing a police uniform walked out of the office area of the detention center. According to the judge who brought me, the middle-aged man was the director of the detention center, Wang Changgui Wang.
After the two sides introduced each other, they went straight to the topic of work. According to the relevant procedures, I signed the relevant documents given to me by the judge. There were many terms of the documents, and I didn't look closely. According to the judge, most of them were related to complying with the management of the detention center.
Regulations, documents that prove legal identity and areas that can be entered and exited.
After signing, the judge, the prison guard and the driver left. The next step was to verify my work documents and tell me some of the rules of the detention center.
Next, Director Wang showed me the applicant's information. I took a rough look. It was basically the same as the content provided by my leader. I am here to see the content on these files.
I have already read a rough one on the way to the detention center.
Seeing that I had seen it almost, Director Wang asked with concern: "Comrade Xiao Jiang, it's less than 23 hours before Zhang Fu's execution. Look, what kind of cooperation do you need next
?”
I replied casually: "Just as usual."
Director Wang said a little embarrassedly: "There is no convention. Zhang Fu is the first person in the city to apply for psychological assistance after the new interpretation (referring to the judicial interpretation of the Supreme People's Court on the relevant rights of death row prisoners in 2003).
I could only shrug my shoulders and said, "Since that's the case, let's cross the river together to set an example for the colleagues behind me."
Director Wang laughed out loud.
Under the leadership of Director Wang, I walked into the black iron gate.
Behind the black iron gate is a scene with a "unique world".
First, there is a long wall, followed by a barbed wire mesh built along the wall. Although the barbed wire mesh is a little shorter than the wall, it is still more than three meters high. There are still many armed police guards in this circle, and although the weather is hot
But the mighty armed police brothers were wearing green armed police uniforms, wearing armed police hats, and meticulously doing boring work of patrol and station defense.
Passing through the barbed wire, it was a grassland, as big as a football field. At first I thought it was a place for prisoners to let go. Director Wang shook his head and explained: "How can we let go here? The reason why we want to keep this open land is that once a prisoner escapes from prison
, we must go through this pioneering land, which is a clear view of the armed police patrolling the walls. It is difficult for prisoners to succeed."
The other end of the pioneering land is a large barracks, with a huge font written on the wall of the barracks: "Renovate and be a new person." There are two closed channels connecting the black iron gate and the barracks, and one channel connects the visiting personnel.
In the waiting area, a channel connects the administrative area.
Director Wang and I walked through the administrative area passage. Although the administrative area passages are basically in and out of the staff of the detention center, there are still armed police guarding them and swiping cards in and out. Moreover, swiping cards is one person and one card, so I can't follow them.
Director Wang goes in directly and needs to use the temporary card provided by Director Wang to swipe it yourself before entering.
After passing the long closed passage, there is the entrance of the barracks, located everywhere at the entrance of the barracks, there are gate guards of 15 square meters. There are two policemen sitting in the gate guards, which seem to be watching the surveillance cameras, and there is also a guard guard of the armed police on one side.
When the two policemen saw Director Wang bringing me, they quickly got up to greet him. Director Wang casually said to the two policemen: "Go to the 99th Cell." When the two policemen heard about Director Wang's office, they said:
No. 99 said, as if he was a little nervous, then looked at me suspiciously. Seeing the two policemen hesitated, Director Wang couldn't help but urged: "Hurry up, why are you still procrastinating?"
