Zhou Deqin's wife was originally an actress. A troupe came to the village to perform, leaving a woman in critical condition. Zhou Deqin, a bachelor, saved this woman and asked a doctor to treat her day and night. The sick woman gradually improved and married Zhou Deqin. A few years later, the woman gave birth to twin sisters for Zhou Deqin.
Twin sisters did not inherit Zhou Deqin's honest duty, but inherited their mother's coquettish willfulness. "Shuangfeng" likes fooling around with men since he was a child in the village. When he grows up, he goes to the green gauze tent, haystack head and mulberry forest with young men. In the feudal environment at that time, the reputation of the Zhou sisters became worse and worse, and the rich and powerful families were reluctant to propose marriage.
A few years later, Sister Hua turned eighteen, and some people proposed. But most of them are poor families, and Zhou Deqin and his wife don't like it. Rich people have scruples because their two daughters have a bad reputation. They don't want to take a wife as a concubine for fear that their daughter will be wronged. The Zhou sisters dragged on for a long time, and they became more frivolous and courageous.
In the autumn of the second year of the Republic of China, the Zhou sisters killed time by picking cotton in their own fields. At dusk, Li Jia, a young man from Zhangji Trouser Square in the town, passed by the field with a car full of rice wine. My sister in Sister Flowers saw Angel Li at a glance and called Li to stop and pour them some sweet wine.
Two years ago, Li Jia and his uncle came to Shanghai from Wuhu, Anhui. After arriving in Shanghai, his uncle placed him in the town and became an apprentice. When Li Jia was a child, her parents died and she was raised by her uncle. His uncle was too busy running around doing small business to discipline him. Therefore, Li Jia grew up in the village hooligans and learned to be glib and full of flowers and intestines.
Angel lee is twenty years old, which is the youth. It's no fun making wine for the landlord in the trough all day. His favorite thing is to go to town to sell wine, because every time he goes to sell wine, he has to go through Zhou's house. The Zhou family has a pair of sister flowers, which are very beautiful. Angel lee will bring some candied haws, rouge boxes and other gadgets to them every time she comes back from selling wine. Zhou's sisters are familiar with him and ambiguous.
At this time, as the sun sets, people working in the fields go home one after another, and the cotton fields are continuous, like a green gauze account. Angel lee was overjoyed to hear the call of the Zhou sisters. I didn't expect to meet two sisters in the middle of nowhere. Li Jia then took the burden to a hidden place and asked the sisters to eat sweet wine. Angel lee picked up the bowl and drank several bowls in a row.
In the afterglow of the sunset, the three of them drank in the field and drank a few bowls of wine, all of which warmed up. However, my mind has become unclear, and my words and actions have become more and more presumptuous. After the wine was served, the three of them screamed and pushed in the venue. Between joking and fighting, angel lee took the opportunity to hug her left and right, and the Zhou sisters were reluctant to part, becoming more and more unable to extricate themselves.
At this time, there is no one around, and the cotton stalks are very tall and the position is very hidden. These three people are getting bolder and bolder. It was completely dark that day. They took off their clothes and sat on the floor to do men's and women's things.
After a while, the wind rustled the cotton and drowned out all the sounds. About half an hour later, Zhou's sisters found that Li Jia on the ground had been motionless for a long time. They quickly pulled him up and found that he was pale and had no breath. Touch your chest again, and there is only a faint heartbeat that is almost imperceptible. When Zhou's sisters saw it, they knew that they had made a big disaster, but they were helpless in the face of this situation and had to secretly cry.
Soon after, the town patrolman passed by and found a woman crying in the cotton field. The patrol followed the sound and found the sister flower and the body of angel lee hidden under the cotton stalk next to the sister flower. The patrol inspected angel lee's body and found him naked and stiff. So he took the sisters to the town for detention and immediately reported the situation.
The next day, the county police station sent someone to investigate the case, and the Zhou sisters were interrogated separately. The coroner went to the scene for an autopsy. After careful examination, the coroner found that there was no poison in angel lee's bucket and no scars on his body. Judging from his physical condition, his lower body used to be wet and dry. There are indications that angel lee died of sperm collection, which is what the saying goes, "phoenix immediately."
There was a murder case in the town, and the town was unable to handle it, so Zhou's sisters were taken to Baoshan County for trial. At that time, the chief of Baoshan county magistrate's office was surnamed Zhang, and Zhou's sisters had never seen the battle being tried by the county magistrate's office, so they were too scared to speak. After understanding the cause and effect of the case, Governor Zhang immediately made a judgment: "Li Jia was raped and killed by Zhou sisters. Compared with men's crimes, they were sentenced to 20 years in prison. "
After a pair of sisters were sentenced to 20 years in prison, their lives were basically destroyed. After such a scandal happened in the Zhou family, Zhou Deqin was so angry that he cursed his two daughters for failing to live up to expectations. Zhou Deqin's wife scolded him for what he deserved. So many people refuse to marry their daughters, thinking that they are too poor to fall in love with rich people. Now is a disaster, isn't it asking for it? Zhou Deqin was scolded by his wife and dared not complain any more. The husband and wife sighed deeply and felt the misfortune of the family.
In the autumn of the same year, lawyer Cao Rulin visited Wusong. When I heard about the case in the hotel where I stayed, Cao Rulin asked about the cause of the case. After finding out the situation, he told everyone that he wanted to rehabilitate the Zhou sisters and should not be sentenced to such a heavy crime according to law. Cao Rulin said that he was sure to win the lawsuit.
After hearing this, the Zhou family immediately came to consult with Cao Rulin. Cao Rulin was filled with joy. He decided to fight this lawsuit. This lawsuit is not for money, but to safeguard legal justice, so he doesn't want a penny from Zhou's family.
Soon after, Cao Rulin wrote a form paper to appeal. Cao Rulin wrote in the complaint: The facts of this case are clear, and Li Jia was indeed raped and killed. But Zhou's sisters are all weak women, and they have no ability to force people to do that. It is also your wish for angel lee to have sex with Zhou's sisters. It is meaningless for county government departments to try sister flowers for crime and murder without investigating and confirming this relationship.
Of course, in this process, things got out of control and angel lee died, which is an uncontrollable factor. Angel lee died in this process, so it was sudden death and had nothing to do with murder. Besides, who would murder someone's life in this way? Therefore, it is possible to judge that the Zhou sisters have certain responsibilities. The responsibility of the Zhou sisters lies in their disobedience to women's morality. It is their responsibility to find out that angel lee is unconscious and not report it. However, it is wrong to think that the Zhou sisters murdered angel lee and were convicted of murder. Moreover, the newly compiled Provisional New Criminal Law of the Republic of China has no provisions on how to deal with women raping and killing men, which should be revoked, and Zhou sisters should not be sentenced.
After Cao Rulin overturned the case, the case has been handed over to Dali Court (Supreme Court) for adjudication. Finally, the Dali court held that there was no clear legal provision in this case, so it demanded that the judgment of the Jiangsu High Court be revoked and the Zhou sisters be acquitted. The Zhou sisters' frivolous behavior led to this tragedy and were released after being admonished and educated by the police station. Li Jia died in an emergency, and Zhou's joint civil liability will not be investigated.
Cao Rulin saved the Zhou sisters with a complaint, otherwise the Zhou sisters would have been in prison for 20 years. Cao Rulin saved his sister's flowers next week, which made him famous and became one of the famous barristers at that time.
Mystery in mystery:
This case can be called a strange case. In the social environment at that time, it was an indisputable fact that the Zhou sisters had an affair with Li Jia. It is also an indisputable fact that three people had sex in the cotton field, and it is also an indisputable fact that angel lee died because of it. But we can't convict Zhou's sister. Why? Because the Zhou sisters have no motive for committing crimes and have no ability to force them to commit crimes.
The core issue of this case is whether Li Jia was forced voluntarily. If angel lee was attacked by Zhou's sister and dragged to the cotton field and died, this is another matter and can be convicted of rape. But the key problem is that angel lee is voluntary, and even angel lee started this thing on her own initiative, and sister flowers are unable to force angel lee to do it. Angel lee's death was not intentional by her sisters, but sudden death. Therefore, it does not constitute intentional homicide. It is reasonable that the young girl is too wet behind the ears, and it is not unreasonable that angel lee is too scared to tell anyone after she is in a coma. So angel lee's death can't be blamed.
Therefore, since there was no such charge in the legal provisions at that time, it was natural to be acquitted. Reasonably reversing the case not only takes care of legal justice, but also maintains basic fairness.
