Chapter 197 The defamation case opens, an unprecedented grand occasion!
On the court day, the weather is cloudy.
The sky was gray and dark clouds pressed down on the top, making the whole city look a little depressing.
After breakfast, Jiang Bai drove to the court.
I silently used the moderate depression experience card on the way.
This was originally an auxiliary prop that was produced by the incident "Internet Water Army", but Jiang Bai used this item. As for the Internet Water Army's item, it has attracted the attention of the Internet Security Department and must face a heavy blow.
.
As soon as he arrived at the entrance of the court, Jiang Bai saw a lot of people.
Those who didn't know thought something was shocking injustice had happened, and the people came to the court to protest.
In fact, all of these people were defendants and the families accompanying him.
Thousands of people gathered in front of the court, and the scene was quite spectacular.
Fortunately, the court made sufficient preparations in advance and transferred many bailiffs from other courts to help, and even applied for support from the police station.
After all, if so many people gather together, if you are not careful, you may experience uncontrollable vicious events.
In particular, we must consider whether they will be emotionally excited and have violent conflicts if they see the plaintiff?
Therefore, sufficient police force must be ensured to maintain order.
besides.
There are also several times more traffic police in the streets around the court than usual.
Prevent serious traffic jams.
The media will naturally not let go of such a big scene.
Media and self-media practitioners from all walks of life were reporting on the scene with long guns and short cannons, interviewing victims, and holding selfie sticks to live broadcasts to catch traffic.
In such occasions, of course, passers-by are indispensable.
In short, the scene is just one word, chaos!
Soon, lawyers from major law firms appeared, just like tour guides from a tour group, holding signs and loudspeakers, shouting on the field, gathering their clients.
Some lawyers only have a few clients, which is fine.
Like Zhang Wei, it takes a long time for a person to face a thousand defendants alone to name a name.
However, he was smart enough to divide the thousand defendants into ten groups, and called out ten interns from the law firm to help count the list and count the number of people.
It wouldn't be too embarrassed.
Anyway, interns are just cattle and horses, so there is no need to be used.
Just think it was to take them to gain insight.
"Lawyer Zhang, after this lawsuit is over, can you consider changing a big house?" Chen Mengzhe came to Zhang Wei's side, and his tone was inevitably a little sour.
He received the news in a timely manner and responded very quickly, and grabbed more than 200 customers.
But I still can't compare with Zhang Wei.
Zhang Wei took half of the defendants alone, which made Longcheng's lawyers envious.
"Don't mention it, you don't know how hard I work. More than a thousand defendants are almost ate me..."
Zhang Wei shook his head and complained loudly.
Hard.
The fist is hard.
Looking at the smile that deserves a beating on Zhang Wei's face, Chen Mengzhe really wanted him to taste his iron fist.
This is the same as people who have bought a house, people who can't afford the down payment, people who are in love with each other, and people who have been solo for 20 years complaining that their girlfriends are clingy.
This is a kind of beating called complaining, but it is actually a show-off.
"call……"
Chen Mengzhe took a deep breath, forcibly suppressed his anger, and gave Zhang Wei a thumbs up: "Then you are great."
Zhang Wei: "…"
On the other side.
After Jiang Bai parked the car, he met Luo Dazhang and walked into the court in a low-key manner.
Not smug in front of the court.
If there is a riot, it will be difficult to end...
The two of them were familiar with each other and headed towards the First Criminal Trial Court.
"How is it, are you nervous?" Luo Dazhao asked with a smile.
Jiang Bai let out a long sigh and said, "I'm not nervous, the defendants should be nervous! Today is the day when they are on trial!"
Since the Internet became popular, cyber rioters have appeared.
Over the years, there have been too many tragedies caused by online violence.
Some people with dark mentalities hide behind the Internet, wear hideous and terrifying masks, hold bloody butcher knife, and unscrupulously vent their emotions and vent their anger.
But I never think about how terrible harm this behavior will cause to the victim.
During an avalanche, no snowflake is innocent.
Today, Jiang Bai wants to expose all these "snowflakes" to the sun and be tried!
He wants to use his own efforts to shock the entire Internet trolls and change the status quo of the Internet.
This will be difficult.
But Jiang Bai was fearless.
"Well said, I believe that after today, cyber violence should be greatly improved."
Luo Dazhao patted Jiang Bai on the shoulder.
The two walked into the courtroom.
Suddenly, several reporters surrounded him and the microphone reached in front of Jiang Bai.
"Mr. Jiang, as the plaintiff in this unprecedented lawsuit, what do you think at this moment?"
"Mr. Jiang Bai, suing more than 2,000 people at one time. Where is the main difficulty for you?"
"Mr. Jiang, some people say that you do all this to maintain your realistic personality. What do you think about this?"
"Mr. Jiang, do you have anything to say to the victims who are also suffering from cyber violence?"
“…”
The reporters asked questions in a verbal way.
Due to the particularity of this trial, the judicial department invited several media to enter the trial court and broadcast the trial live.
Although the trial open website can watch the trial live broadcast.
But after all, not many people know about this channel and the spread is not wide.
That is why the judicial department specially invited several official media such as Jiangsu and Zhejiang TV, Longcheng Judicial, and Jiangsu and Zhejiang Internet Security to broadcast the trial live, aiming to maximize the influence and scope of the trial.
Obviously, the relevant departments are preparing to use this incident to carry out a full-network legal publicity campaign, and to sound the alarm bell for the trolls on the Internet.
In response to the reporter's inquiry, Jiang Bai took a deep breath and slowly spoke: "The reason why I sued so many people is not for fame or profit."
"My purpose is very simple, to make those who violate the law accept sanctions!"
"As a victim of this online violence, I have a very deep experience. It is very uncomfortable to feel like it is abandoned and betrayed by the whole world."
Jiang Bai paused for a moment and continued: "Cyber violence is an invisible knife. This knife kills people without blood. As the perpetrator, I may not feel anything, but as a victim, it is definitely a terrible torture, and even, life is not as good as
die!"
"My personal power is insignificant, but I hope that through this trial, more people can realize that the Internet is not a lawless place, and that crimes on the Internet are also responsible!"
"At the same time, I also want to say to people who are also suffering from online violence, that is not you who are wrong, but those who are wrong are those who perpetrators. Don't punish yourself with the mistakes of others. You must bravely take up legal weapons and safeguard your legitimate rights and interests!
”
"As long as each of us dares to fight against cyber violence, then cyber violence will not have a breeding ground and no room for survival!"
The reporters nodded one after another.
He looked at Jiang Bai with complicated eyes.
He was unfortunate, suffered terrible cyber violence and even suffered from depression.
But at the same time, he is also lucky and brave.
Be able to take up legal weapons to protect your legitimate rights and interests.
Many online rioters silently endure everything, and some even find it difficult to withstand huge pressure and choose to give up their lives.
There are too many tragedies, too many tragedies.
If everyone can be as brave as Jiang Bai, who else dares to rush to lie on the Internet?
The reporters want to ask another question.
But at this time, the time for the court hearing was very close.
A team of bailiffs entered the court to set up control in advance to maintain order.
The reporters had to give up the interview, enter the designated position, adjust the camera, and start the live broadcast.
soon.
It's arrived at 10 o'clock in the morning!
Judge Chen Zhonghan took the lead in entering the courtroom with dark circles.
Colonial members followed closely.
There are a few people who seem to have a lot of white hair.
During this period, the workload of all the courts has increased significantly, from judges to ordinary civil servants.
And the initiator of all this was a handsome guy sitting in the plaintiff's dock at this moment.
"winter!"
Chen Zhonghan beats the gavel.
Scan the eyes.
His eyes stayed on Jiang Bai's body for a moment, and his eyes were filled with complex expressions.
It's him again.
Not long ago, more than 100 people were sued at one time, which has caused a sensation across the province. This time, more than 2,000 people were sued at one time, which has caused a sensation across the country.
Countless people are paying attention to this trial.
Not to mention anything else, the number of defendants alone is unprecedented.
This trial, which attracted countless attention, made the old judge Chen Zhonghan feel very stressed.
It must be cautious, objective and notarized.
The judgment standard must be well grasped.
Otherwise, it will inevitably trigger some bad public opinion.
Chen Zhonghan withdrew his gaze and spoke in a deep voice: "Today, in accordance with Article 246 of the Criminal Law, the Criminal Trial Trial Division of the Binjiang District People's Court of Longcheng City, Jiangsu and Zhejiang Province will publicly hear an online defamation case in accordance with the law."
"I, Chen Zhonghan, serve as the presiding judge, and a collegial panel will be formed in accordance with the law."
"Because this trial is quite special, after many considerations, it was decided to adopt the strategy of centralized trial in batches."
"According to the severity of the defendant's defamation circumstances, court investigations will be conducted in batches."
Then, the clerk introduced in detail the rules for the trial batching.
The main reference is to the number of likes in the comments to divide the grades.
The first level is the number of likes above 100,000.
50,000 to 100,000 is the second level.
10,000 to 50,000 is the third level.
50 million to 10,000 is the fourth level.
1000~5000 is the fifth level.
500~1000 is the sixth level.
More than 2,000 defendants were divided into six batches and were investigated and tried in court in batches.
This can greatly improve efficiency and avoid excessive chaos.
After the clerk introduced the detailed rules, the defendant began to enter.
The first batch, with more than 100,000 likes!
This group of defendants had the smallest number, only fourteen, but it was definitely the worst case.
Five lawyers are represented respectively.
Zhang Wei served as the defense attorney for four of them.
After the defendants entered the courtroom, they all looked nervous and uneasy.
The panic spread between them like a tide.
Zhang Wei whispered: "Don't be nervous, remember what I told you before, no matter what happens later, strictly follow my instructions."
"Our basic strategy is to actively admit guilt and apologize sincerely!"
"The clerk will read court discipline later, listen carefully and never violate any of them."
Zhang Wei thought about it, but was still a little worried, and then said, "Also, don't insult the judge, the juror, don't have conflicts with the bailiff, be sincere when apologizing..."
Originally, these things didn't need to be discussed separately.
But there is nothing to do.
Zhang Wei was scared of being cheated.
Especially this time, there are many defendants, so it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no big cleverness among them.
It must be cautious and cautious.
Several lawyers next to him became weird when they heard Zhang Wei's instructions to the client.
The contents of his command sounded incredible.
But if it was Zhang Wei...
Lawyers said this is not surprising.
After all, the incident of Zhang Wei being stabbed by the parties involved has spread in the circle of Longcheng lawyers.
soon.
The clerk began to read out court discipline and confirmed the identity of the person present in court in turn.
Then.
The trial officially begins.
Luo Dazhe stood up, read out the indictment, briefly stated the cause of the case, and accused the fourteen defendants of defamation.
The fourteen defendants in the first batch are among the best among the more than two thousand defendants.
Everyone's comments received over 100,000 super high likes.
Among them, Zhang Mingli is the most prominent. The number of likes from his eight comments is close to 400,000, which is simply a big shot, leaving the second place far behind.
After Luo Dazhe read out the indictment, Jiang Bai stood up to make a statement.
His statement is actually quite simple, just saying that he has a lot of psychological pressure due to online violence and his depression recurs. He hopes that the collegial panel will sentence the perpetrator to a severe sentence!
Then, the defendant stated in turn.
"I sincerely apologize to the victims here. It's all my fault for being confused and trusting the false remarks on the Internet..."
"I plead guilty and hope that the judge will give me a chance. I promise that I will never commit again in the future..."
"I was also bewitched by others. I definitely did not intend to attack the victim. Now I have a deep understanding of my mistakes. I will do my best to make up for the harm and losses suffered by the victim, and only ask the victim for forgiveness..."
"Sorry, I was wrong, I really knew I was wrong. I have been reflecting and repenting during this period..."
In the plaintiff's dock.
Seeing the defendants bowing their heads to apologize, Jiang Bai's face couldn't help but become a little weird.
Is this the face of Internet trolls in reality?
It's indeed a giant on the Internet and a dwarf in reality.
Jiang Bai was originally looking forward to them being able to create some surprises, but now it seems that he is about to be disappointed.
Soon, the defendant's statement ended.
Chen Zhonghan announced that he had entered the stage of cross-examination and court debate.
This link will directly determine the final outcome of these defendants!
