The dutiful son buys pesticides to help the mother "euthanasia" brothers and sisters for their plea

The second public hearing of the crime of intentional homicide was held by many brothers and sisters and their relatives suggested that they should be sentenced to probation.

The 73-year-old mother, who has been absent for 18 years, also suffers from rheumatism, high blood pressure, arthritis, and calcium deficiency cramps. She has said many times before different people that she "wants to die" and "Why did God not collect me?"

His son Deng Mingjian served his mother for 20 years with no complaints. “Your mother wants to go to the toilet. Come back!” People in the village often hear Deng Mingjian’s father say something to the son who is working in the fields. Deng Mingjian immediately put down his hands and “fly” to his mother. Ten miles and eight townships all praise him as a "dutiful son."

May 16, 2011, Deng mother once again fell, the condition deteriorated, she once again severely asked her son to buy pesticides, let her sleep forever and quietly. Deng Mingjian obeyed his mother's "order" for death this time. He, therefore, stood on the dock and went to the court for the second time yesterday at the Panyu District Court in Guangzhou.

Blending pesticides unscrewing cover to mother

Deng mother has two sons and two daughters, Sichuan Yuzhong people. In 1993, Deng Mingjian had just married and Deng mother suffered partial favor. Deng Mingjian was the eldest son of his family. Because his family was poor, his younger brother entered the family's house and the two sisters were married. The burden of taking care of both parents fell on Deng Mingjian. In 1995, Deng Mingjian’s wife Hua Suying first went to Panyu to work. Deng Mingjian looked after his parents and children in his hometown. In 2000, Deng Mingjian also came to work in Guangzhou because his wife was ill.

In May 2010, after his father's death, Deng Mingjian took his mother to live in a place where Panyu was working. He rented a two-bedroom house near the factory and lived on the first floor. Because of poor sanitary conditions, they wanted to move there from time to time. No one can think of it. One year after the death of his father, a tragedy occurred. The mother died of pesticides. His son Deng Mingjian handed the pesticides to his mother.

The Panyu District People's Procuratorate of Guangzhou City accused the victim Li Moulan of suffering unsustainable long-term illness and suffering. At 9 o'clock on May 16, 2011, Li Moulan rented a house on 22nd Lane of Civilization Street, Nanpu Village, Shijie Town, Panyu District, Guangzhou City and asked his son and defendant Deng Mingjian to purchase pesticides to end his life.

Deng Mingjian listened to Li Moulan's request and went to Shilou Town, Panyu District, Yuk Yuen Street, Shilou Building, Sales and Marketing Agency, Fertilizer and Pesticide Store to purchase two bottles of pesticides. After Deng Mingjian returned to the above-mentioned rental house, he unscrewed the bottle lid and handed the victim Li Mianlan to take the food. Li Moulan was poisoned after taking the pesticide.

The procuratorial organs believe that the defendant Deng Mingjian’s actions have constituted intentional homicide and should be investigated for criminal responsibility for crimes of intentional homicide according to law. In light of the fact that the defendant, Deng Mingjian, confessed his crimes in accordance with law, he could be punished lightly.

The Panyu District Court conducted the first public trial of the case on January 10, 2012.

Witness testimony:

Everyone says that he is a "dutiful son."

After the first court session, the judicial authorities carried out additional investigations and went to Deng Mingjian’s hometown in Sichuan Province to investigate the site of Jincun Village in Jinxiang Town, Langzhong City, Sichuan Province. After a supplementary investigation, the case was put on a second trial yesterday. During the court investigation stage of this trial, the public prosecutor submitted the supplementary evidence materials to the court according to law, including several witness statements and documentary evidence.

Almost all witnesses' testimony confirmed Deng Mingjian as a "dutiful son." Deng Mingjian's second sister, Deng Mingfang, said that the mother was taken care of by Ming Jian. He was filial and very honest, but his mother was very angry and often beat people. “We are sometimes very afraid of going back to her parents to see her.” Deng Mingfang said that the mother had said to her, "I know you are all filial, but I am very miserable and I can drink bottle medicine to die."

Deng Mingjian’s younger brother, Deng Mingyou, also said that his mother said that he would buy pesticides to commit suicide on several occasions, but everyone did not buy it for her. The mother is in a grumpy temper and the people in the village do not respect her, but his brother has been working hard and taking care of his mother wholeheartedly.

Since Deng mother often talked about suicide and drinking pesticides before people, her husband always carefully collected the pesticides from her family before she was alive. The village chief of Gold Village also came out to testify. He said that once Deng Mingjian's father was holding Deng mother, Deng mother suddenly said she was going to jump well and was stopped by everyone.

The retired doctor in the village of Jincun, who had long treated Deng mother, said that Deng mother suffered from rheumatism, high blood pressure and other diseases. Her toes were deformed and could not be straightened. In addition, severe calcium deficiency in the elderly caused frequent cramps. He visited her home many times to attend consultations.

The neighbors and fellow villagers who had a lot of connections with Deng Mingjian also proved that Deng Mingjian’s care for his mother was very careful. Co-workers said that Deng Mingjian went home at the next class to cook and groom his mother. His monthly salary is more than 2,400 yuan, but he never saw him through new clothes. It is often seen that he is carrying his mother to see a doctor. It is difficult for everyone to accept Deng Mingjian's "killing."

Among the evidence provided by the defense, there were many letters of approval for Deng Mingjian written by relatives and friends.

Court confrontation and defender

Mother's tough mentality

Caused the defendant to be weak

Deng Chengjian’s defender, Tang Chengkui, said that Deng Mingjian respected and feared his mother. "Without Deng Xiaojian's filial piety, his mother could not live so long. His subtle care of his mother for twenty years was as meticulous as a trivial matter such as nail cutting."

Tang Chengkui believes that his mother forcing Deng Mingjian to buy poisons, including his brothers and sisters, has proved that his mother’s idea of ​​giving up suicide many times is because his mother’s tough mentality has caused Deng Mingjian’s weakness. Therefore, Deng Mingjian’s behavior is forced by his mother. He did this. Tang Chengkui also admitted that from the point of view of the crime, Deng Mingjian’s actions constitute intentional homicide, but he hopes to punish him when he is sentenced.

Court confrontation, public prosecutor

The defendant is very clear

Large pesticide killing

The public prosecutor responded to the defense opinions. In subjective terms, Deng Mingjian did not have the notion that the entire spirit will be out of line with his own behavior. Deng Mingjian was very clear at that time that the pesticides he had purchased had great lethality after blending.

The public prosecutor also agreed with the defender's argument that the entire incident was a tragedy. It is suggested that the court can make discretionary considerations when it comes to sentencing.

It is reported that during the first court session, the prosecution and the defense both advised the court to sentence Deng Mingjian to probation.

After the court’s vestibule:

"It is not my fault to send away my mother."

Deng Mingjian’s help in the “euthanasia” of her mother was reported by the media and caused a lot of discussion. Some people sympathized with him and some called him “unfilial”. Yesterday, he first appeared in the media. He was not tall and looked pale and quiet and sat quietly in the dock. He did not say a word of defense for himself.

During these days in the detention center, he wrote many times to his wife Hua Suying. “It was not my fault to send away my mother. I don’t understand why I’m going to jail! I’m sorry that it’s you. You’ve been to my house for almost 20 years. I’ve never had a good day. I’m sick of my mother’s illness. Up to now...” Deng Mingjian’s letter said that he hopes his relatives will not blame him. He did so at the request of his mother.

In fact, the brothers and sisters of Deng Mingjian did not have the same meaning as the blame for their sins, but more for their plea. They understand the pain of their mother and understand the pains of Ming Jian.

Yesterday, Hua Suying came to court early. Hearing lawyers said that this should be the next time a court session was held. Hua Suying thought that Deng Mingjian might release him in court and specially brought a suit to Deng Mingjian.

However, because she is a witness, she cannot attend hearings. She only looked at her husband in the moment Deng Mingjian was taken out of the court. she cried. The clothes she was holding in her hand could not be handed over to Deng Mingjian. The wish that she thought she could take her husband's hand home was defeated. But the defender comforted her and the case should be pronounced shortly.

Its sins cannot be forgiven

Yang Bin, a public prosecutor who had been widely acclaimed for helping female prisoner Zhou Yuying, wrote an article commenting on the matter: From a legal perspective, Deng Mingjian’s behavior certainly constitutes intentional homicide. However, starting from the sentiments of the good people, Deng Mingjian took care of the seriously ill mother for nearly 20 years. Under the long-term mental and economic pressures, he was impulsively trying to solve an aunt's mother's move. Although his crimes are inedible, his feelings I can't.

On the one hand, we have to accuse Deng Mingjian of the cruelty of her aunt, but at the same time, we cannot label the offender and filial son who took care of her mother for 18 years. In the criminal case where the contradiction between human nature and conflict is fierce, the conflict between good and evil and sentiment and law is constantly lashing our souls. When there is a conflict between the situation and the law, we cannot deviate from the principle because of sympathy for the identification of facts and charges. However, in the aspect of sentencing, the defendant's consistent performance, personal danger, subjective viciousness, and social harm of crime can be integrated. Family members' understandings, etc., make more humane decisions.

Similar to what happened in Dongguan in the case of "Mother Mother's Strangling Brain?", the human-rights tragedy has repeatedly challenged people's bottom line. The imperfection of the social assistance system is the social cause of such tragedies. If China's severely disabled person protection system can be improved, it will relieve the pressure of such families to a certain extent, thus avoiding the occurrence of tragedies to some extent.

Whether it is the sins of aunts or the pain of killing children, I believe that it has brought immeasurable harm to the defendant himself and his family. If he insists on severe punishment, it will be tantamount to causing his family to suffer a double blow. In the handling of such cases, I believe that "severely convicting crimes with a wide range of sentences" is a better choice.
