The recess was half an hour, and it passed in a flash.
Soon, the judge brought the members of the collegial panel back into the courtroom.
"Dong!"
Chen Zhonghan beat the gavel and spoke in a deep voice:
"The first criminal trial court of the Intermediate People's Court of Binjiang District, Longcheng, has been tried for the case of Liu Zhihua, Liu Ailing and Liu Zhigang abandoning their mother."
"For eight years, Liu Zhihua and three other defendants ignored his elderly mother Zheng Aixia, and did not care about it. They did not provide economic and material assistance or spiritual companionship.
Constituting an act of abandonment.”
"And the plaintiff Zheng Aixia has accumulated over the years due to the abandonment behavior of her three children and her bad attitude. The probability of Alzheimer's disease has greatly increased..."
"This court believes that supporting parents is a traditional virtue of our nation. No matter what the reason or the situation is, it shall not be used as a reason to refuse to support parents!"
"The criminal facts in this case are clear, and the evidence is indeed sufficient..."
"The following judgment is now made:"
Speaking of this, Chen Zhonghan paused for a moment.
The clerk immediately stood up and whispered: "Everyone stands up!"
"Swish swish swish swish!"
Everyone in the trial court, including both the plaintiff and the defendant, and the people attending the trial, stood up.
Liu Zhihua's face turned pale, his expression was nervous, and a deep anxiety flashed in his eyes.
Liu Ailing swallowed hard, feeling her mouth dry and her heartbeat increased.
Liu Zhigang was not much better. He held the corner of his clothes tightly with his hands, his palms were covered with cold sweat, and his forehead was also covered with cold sweat.
They knew very well that their destiny depends on the verdict at this moment.
Chen Zhonghan glanced at him and held the verdict in both hands to continue reading:
"The defendant Liu Zhihua failed to fulfill his obligation to support his mother for eight years, and caused his mother to suffer from moderate depression... and was held criminally responsible."
"According to Article 261 of the Criminal Law, Liu Zhihua committed the crime of abandonment, the circumstances were serious, the nature was bad, and he had no regrets and was sentenced to three years in prison!"
"The defendant Liu Ailing is guilty of abandonment... and sentenced to three years in prison!"
"The defendant Liu Zhigang... was sentenced to three years in prison!"
"In addition, the three defendants must bear all the expenses incurred by the plaintiff's admission to the nursing home and future medical expenses. The three of them are equally responsible and shall not shirk responsibility."
"The three defendants will need to give the plaintiff an additional 500 yuan of living expenses per month..."
"The above judgment will take effect from the date of trial and will be implemented immediately!"
"If the defendant is dissatisfied with this judgment, he or she may appeal to the higher people's court within fifteen days."
"Dong!"
The gavel fell heavily again, a crisp and majestic voice that kept echoing in the huge courtroom.
This judgment not only includes criminal judgments, but also clarifies the civil liability of the three defendants.
Plaintiff's seat.
Zheng Aixia couldn't help but burst into tears.
Tumorous tears flowed freely on the face.
Although the verdict was very fair, it not only punished the criminals, but also provided the plaintiff's life in his old age.
But no matter what, Zheng Aixia's heart would definitely be very unacceptable to the three children she raised with were completely against each other.
She was both sad and regretful in her heart at this moment.
Sadness is caused by the breakup of mother and son (daughter).
And regret is because of your past spoiling and indulgence.
The so-called "a loving mother often defeats her son" is not unreasonable.
Zheng Aixia is the so-called "loving mother". When the children were young, she spoiled for all three children. This spoiled not only comes from blood, but also from inner guilt.
Because in the early years, Zheng Aixia's family's financial conditions were not very good, and it can even be described as "poverty".
Children's childhood naturally has a very hard time, and they can even afford to eat white flour during the Chinese New Year.
The poor children were already in the family. Liu Zhihua and the other two mastered many life skills before they were less than ten years old, and cooking and other basic operations were all.
Perhaps it is precisely because she did not bring a good life to the children that Zheng Aixia felt a little guilty deep in her heart, which led to her being unable to blame her for educating her children, and she never beat her up.
And when her husband wants to teach her children a lesson, she will try every means to stop her.
Excessive spoiling is one of the main reasons why Liu Zhihua and the other two developed extreme personalities!
If I had known that this spoiling would lead to the current result, Zheng Aixia would never have done this at the beginning.
But unfortunately, there is no regret in this world.
It's useless to wake up now.
In the auditorium.
Jiang Bai's mouth slightly raised and a smile appeared.
Luo Dazhao came out, one was pushing two.
It is no surprise that such a result is.
If you have a good judgment, you should be judged like this! If you don’t have a heavy judgment on such an unfilial son, he will never wake up!"
"It's so satisfying! My blood pressure has been high since the beginning, but now it has finally dropped a little, and my breathing is relaxed."
"Hmph! If there were such unfilial sons in Shiliba Township when I was young, it would have been thrust by countless people! Now it is just sentenced and undertaking the obligation to support it, which is already a bargain for them!"
"The uncle calms down. No matter what, the law still presides over justice."
“…”
Everyone in the audience immediately talked about it.
They are also regular customers of the court, and they like to stroll over to attend the trial when they have nothing to do.
I have seen many cases.
Vicious cases such as murder, robbery, forced annihilation, etc., and cases with less serious social harm, such as slander, extortion, fraud, etc.
But none of these cases made them even more angry.
Perhaps they are not young anymore and it is easier to empathize with Zheng Aixia.
In addition, being filial to parents and supporting parents is the simplest and most basic morality of mankind since ancient times.
If you can't even do this, what qualifications do you have to call him a human being?
Normally, I was in a state of indifference.
Fortunately, the final result was good, which made everyone feel very satisfying!
As for whether the three defendants will give the money honestly...
No one is worried about this.
After all, they are all "old drivers" who have been attending trials all year round. They refuse to enforce the verdict, but they still understand the ruling.
Article 313 of the Criminal Law stipulates that refusal to execute a judgment or a ruling crime means that if the judgment of the people's court is capable of being executed and refuses to execute, and the circumstances are serious, he shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not more than three years, detention or fine;
If the circumstances are particularly serious, they shall be sentenced to fixed-term imprisonment of not less than three years but not more than seven years, and shall be fined.
If Liu Zhihua and the other two dare to disobey the situation, fail to pay alimony on time and count the amount, and refuse to be punished.
If they do not want to have more sentences and more sentences, the judgment must be strictly enforced!
Defendant seat.
Liu Zhihua and the other two looked ugly, and they were simply losing their parents.
Not only did they have to be responsible for raising Zheng Aixia for her elderly care, they were also sentenced to three years!
This result directly caused the three of them to collapse.
"No, why? There are so many people who don't support their parents in the world. Just the bald man in Building 3 of our community is like this. I have seen him abuse his father with his own eyes. Why don't you catch him?
He! Why should he target me!"
"I know I'm wrong, I really know I'm wrong. I'm willing to give money. Not only do I give it to the future, but I also pay all the previous owed in one go. Mom, please forgive me, I'm begging you
!I will be filial to you in the future.”
"That's mom, I heard from the lawyer that this criminal private prosecution will be fine as long as you, the plaintiff, withdraw the lawsuit. Mom, you are my real mom, you are not even a child, how can you bear to send me to prison!"
"My son still needs to take the civil service exam, I can't go to jail!"
“…”
The three of them no longer had the rebelliousness they had before, and they started shouting loudly.
They asked Zheng Aixia to withdraw the lawsuit.
At this moment, they were truly scared when facing the cold and ruthless verdict.
When they are in jail, they do not have any psychological fluctuations when they are usually speaking.
After all, this is not the turn of my head, and it is still far away.
But now, I have to go in and experience collective life, and freedom will no longer be achieved.
Liu Zhihua and the other two were trembling with fear.
"Zhihua, Zhigang, Ling'er..."
Zheng Aixia held the table with both hands and slowly stood up.
There were turbid tears in my eyes.
She personally sent her three children to court and then to prison. She can imagine her inner grief.
"What are you talking about here? Before the judge left, hurry up and explain it to him clearly, go and withdraw the lawsuit!" Liu Zhigang roared with red eyes.
Although Liu Zhihua and Liu Ailing didn't say anything, their expressions were fierce and their eyes were cold, which was enough to say everything.
Zheng Aixia's body shook and she almost stood unsteadily.
His face turned pale with a "swish".
At this time, Chen Zhonghan, who stood up and was about to leave, stopped and turned to look at the defendant's seat.
His face turned pale and his tone was filled with anger.
"Liu Zhihua! Liu Zhigang! Liu Ailing!"
"You three have reached this point, but they still never repent and are obsessed with it!"
Chen Zhonghan frowned and looked at the three of them with cold eyes.
The position of judge not only requires high professionalism in law, but also requires him to be rational and calm enough to be disturbed by external objects, have obvious tendencies, and cannot affect the judgment result because of his own personal emotions!
Chen Zhonghan started as a clerk, to a judge and then to a presiding judge. During his decades of working, he has tried various cases and also contacted all kinds of plaintiffs and defendants.
I have developed a calm and calm personality long ago.
But at this moment, Liu Zhihua and the other two refused to support their mother and remained unrepentant after the verdict was issued, but he really felt angry!
It is already a very bad behavior to not support the old mother. At this moment, they are still unrepentant and have a bad attitude, which is simply angering between man and god.
Even with Chen Zhonghan's qi cultivation skills, he couldn't help it at this moment.
"You three open your eyes and take a look. The one standing opposite is your mother!"
"It is the mother who gave birth to you and raised you!"
"Where did you come from without her? During your growth, my mother gave her love selflessly to each of you. Now she is old, with white hair and wrinkles all over her face. You actually regard her as a burden
!”
Chen Zhonghan shook his head slowly and said coldly: "You are sentenced now, it is entirely your own fault!"
"You still have any reason to refuse to support your mother?"
"Now what are you yelling and wanting to do!"
"And the verdict has been announced in this case, and it is a foregone conclusion. If you are not satisfied with the verdict, you can appeal and what are you calling at your mother?"
Chen Zhonghan's words made Liu Zhihua and the other two look unnatural, their eyes dodged and their heads lowered.
But he did not stop there, but continued:
"You all have children, I want to ask, if you refuse to support your mother today, and even speak ill of her, you are not afraid that you will get old in the future, and your children will treat you like this too!?"
"And then in the face of your accusations, they can completely say that they learned from you!"
"What will you do then?"
These remarks were resounding and echoed continuously in the courtroom.
It was also crazy in the ears of Liu Zhihua and the other two.
All three of them looked ashamed and slowly lowered their heads.
"Hmph! You three are so willing to take care of yourself. I hope this verdict can truly suspend your conscience in your heart!"
After saying that, Chen Zhonghan left with his sleeves.
"Okay! Well said!"
"You are right. Today you are not filial to your mother, and tomorrow your children may be unfilial to you! Feng Shui will take turns."
"In the next three years, slowly reflect and repent!"
“…”
There were cheers coming from the audience seats.
The clerk came forward with the verdict and asked Liu Zhihua and the other two to sign.
"Lawyer Zhang, do you say...if we appeal, will the verdict be changed?"
Liu Zhihua swallowed and asked quietly.
Upon hearing this, Liu Zhigang and Liu Ailing also turned their heads and looked over.
In the expectant eyes of the three people, Zhang Wei slowly spoke: "I don't recommend you to appeal this case. Judging from my experience, even if you appeal, the verdict will basically not be reduced."
"well……"
Liu Zhihua was completely desperate, and his shoulders collapsed, as if he had vented all his strength.
Then he signed the judgment with his right hand trembling.
The same is true for Liu Zhigang and Liu Ailing.
Then they were taken down by the bailiff, and they would stay in the detention center for a while, then be transferred to prison and start a new life.
Jiang Bai was busy contacting Zheng Aixia's nursing home.
There are quite a lot of nursing homes in Longcheng, and the supporting facilities are complete. Not only does it have infrastructure for daily life and entertainment, but it also has special medical staff.
However, Jiang Bai still visited and investigated himself, and finally chose a nursing home with a good environment, complete facilities and patiently responsible staff.
In the future, Zheng Aixia should live a happier life here.
After finishing Zheng Aixia's work, Jiang Bai's life returned to peace again.
But on an evening with drizzle, he received an unexpected call.
"Mr. Jiang, I am Liu Bo."
"Oh... I don't know how to speak. My father's condition suddenly worsened. The money you gave me before has been spent."
"Look, can I get some relief? I really don't want to watch my father die in pain..."
