The man whose son stabbed his mother to death was sentenced to life in prison: Are desperate people shameful?

The latest push from Nanzhou is \”Stab to Death the Mother-Insulter\”. There were only five words, but it sent a chill down my spine. After clicking on it and reading this 3,413-word in-depth report, I felt a chill running from my back to my heart. This is a tragic story mixed with despair, insult, crime and murder. No, it’s not a story, this is an in-depth documentary report. The whole story is not complicated: a female entrepreneur borrowed money from a loan shark in order to raise funds. I borrowed money twice, totaling 1.35 million yuan, with a monthly interest rate of 10%. When repaying the loan, after the female entrepreneur paid 1.84 million yuan and a property worth 700,000 yuan, she was still 170,000 yuan short of the creditor. 170,000 does not sound like a large amount, but for a female entrepreneur who is already at the end of her rope, this 170,000 is enough to push her to a dead end. The creditor hired a group of gangsters to go to the female entrepreneur\’s factory to demand repayment of the debt. Of course, it is natural to pay back debts, and it is reasonable to collect debts. However, the methods of this gang of gangsters are chilling. For example, the leader asked the younger brother to poop into the toilet, and then pushed the head of the debtor female entrepreneur into the toilet. The gangster leader blocked the woman who owed money and her son in the reception room of the factory, beat them, stuffed shoes into the woman\’s mouth, played a pornographic video, and said the most unpleasant words. Finally, the gangster leader took off his pants and walked in the female enterprise. In front of her son, he rubbed his genitals against her face. Finally, at this time, the police came. After the police entered the reception room, which was full of despair and rage, they told the gangster debt collector and the victim\’s mother and son: \”You can ask for the debt, but you can\’t beat them,\” and then left. The victim tried to pull the police to call for help, but was stopped by the gangsters. Cornered by despair and anger, the young man picked up a fruit knife and stabbed the gangsters. The leading man died and several others were injured. In the end, the court ruled that because the other party did not use tools and the police had already dispatched police, the young man did not have self-defense and was sentenced to life imprisonment for murder. After Nan Zhou wrote an in-depth report on the case, once it was posted, it attracted more than a million+ comments on NetEase News. It is said that this is the highest number of replies to NetEase posts ever. The reason for the high level of attention is that the case itself makes people feel sad and desperate. Part of this desperation stems from the brutal mortgage debt collection environment, but it also goes beyond that. Most people of our generation liked to watch Hong Kong movies when they were young, and it was inevitable to watch scenes involving underworld debt collection. In my impression, although the big brothers who collect debts follow the rules of the underworld, they use seemingly civilized methods. The most common thing is that the elder brother sends a few younger brothers to sit in the debtor\’s house. The methods are more sophisticated. They don\’t say a single curse word or do any dirty things. They just sit there, making it difficult for them to find business. , forcing people to pay back the money. Sometimes there are interesting ways to collect debt. In \”Beijing Meets Seattle 2\”, Tang Wei owed money to the casino eldest brother. In order to demand repayment, the casino eldest brother sent his naughty child to Tang Wei\’s house and poured paint on her door. The child made a huge fuss at Tang Wei\’s house. Tang Wei\’s stepmother wanted to entertain him with good meals and food, and Tang Wei also tried to reason with him and teach him how to do his homework. This is how the eldest brother collects debts: If you don’t pay back the money, then let a kid destroy your family.When chickens and dogs are restless, you still have to face it with a good face. Tang Wei was forced to find a way to pay back the money. Usury has existed since ancient times, not to mention that in today\’s competitive market environment, debt collection is certainly reasonable, but debt collection should be more ethical. The big creditors in Hong Kong movies all ask for money in a more civilized way. I think they probably also follow this principle: money must be taken back, but not at the cost of destroying other people\’s dignity or even killing people. Because they must have weighed it. If they get into trouble for some money, they will not only anger the police and break the rules of the world, but also make their future difficult. It is really not worth it. Therefore, I believe that any profession requires people to have a basic sense of awe, from the top three to the bottom nine. Otherwise, if you are so unscrupulous that you break the rules, it will be of no benefit to anyone. However, in this case, the gangsters were so unscrupulous that it was outrageous. Without awe, people are truly as terrifying as wild beasts. They not only attack the person, but also insult the dignity, reveal the most vicious and wanton side of human nature, and trample the victim under their feet. In the end, he actually did such a shameful thing to his mother in front of his son. If I really put myself in her shoes, I don’t think any son in the world can endure someone else’s insult to his mother. That\’s how people are, when forced to a dead end, there is no second way to choose. The son\’s reaction to stabbing someone with a knife is just the most normal expression of human nature. Because everyone can understand him, everyone sympathizes with him now. As for the scumbag who was stabbed to death, he didn\’t understand the rules, had no bottom line, was cruel and wanton in his actions, and didn\’t take the dignity of others seriously at all, and even took pleasure in humiliating others wantonly. Such a person should certainly die. What\’s more, he has other criminal records: he once killed a 14-year-old female student with his car and was a fugitive. However, the matter did not end with the scumbag\’s death, but with the young man being sentenced to life. All people feel sad. A child who protects his mother should not be punished so severely. I noticed a lawyer’s view on this matter: the verdict in the mother-humiliation murder case goes against the basic ethics upheld by people. Although from a legal technical point of view, the judge’s verdict was in accordance with the law and did not violate the law, but the disregard for the crime is The natural reaction of human nature in desperate situations, cold-blooded and harsh judgment is obviously not a legitimate sentence. I have no legal background and cannot give any further explanation from a professional perspective. But this case reminded me of another merits judgment I had seen before. The circumstances of the two cases are very similar. The defendants both had thoughts of murder under extremely desperate circumstances, but the verdicts were different. That was 2015, a piece of news that happened in Bradford, England. A man named Boota sexually assaulted an 8-year-old girl, but because he exploited a legal loophole, he was acquitted and was only sentenced to compulsory community service. The rapist lived near the victim, and his acquittal left the little girl feeling deep despair. She didn\’t understand why a criminal could be acquitted. She was scared, lonely, desperate, and miserable all day long. She could no longer believe in this world. She dropped out of school and stayed at home. She could no longer feelAny joy. Moreover, she felt that no one would ever fall in love with her again, and her life was completely ruined by the evil man who once sexually assaulted her. Six years later, her injuries have not been healed, but are getting worse. In 2015, the 14-year-old girl finally couldn\’t stand the despair day after day, and took a knife to the house of the man who had caused her so much pain. She said to him: \”I\’m here to kill you.\” When people are extremely desperate, they can always burst out with unimaginable power. She stabbed the knife into the man\’s chest. Then, the little girl returned to her home calmly, hugged her aunt and said to her, \”Tell mom I love her.\” After that, she walked to the local police station and surrendered. Immediately, she was arrested. However, the judge who heard the case, Jonathan Durham Hall QC, said: He would not sentence the little girl to a felony. This is a very special case and should be treated specially. Because there is sufficient evidence that this crime was caused by the injuries suffered by the little girl when she was 8 years old. She experienced too much pain and suffering. The judge said: \”It would be a huge shame if you sent the little girl to prison like this.\” In the end, the little girl was not sentenced to jail, but she had to participate in a two-year youth offender rehabilitation program. After the case was decided, the judge also said: If someone forces the little girl to pay compensation, he will pay for her. The law had betrayed this little girl once and he wouldn\’t let it happen again. Cases like this always remind people of the movie \”Suwon\”. I haven\’t seen the follow-up report, so I don\’t know what the little girl\’s current situation is. But I think the reason why the little girl had been in despair for so many years was because she didn’t understand why the criminal who hurt her could get away with it. She felt that she was not protected by the world, so she could only kill her enemies with her own knife. This is Her most desperate revenge is also her self-preservation. After experiencing the subsequent verdict, the judge who did not sentence her to prison should have made her feel some belated justice and protection, as well as the belated love of the world for her. Perhaps, from now on, she can choose to believe in the world again and accept some happiness that ordinary girls should enjoy. There is a line in \”The Punisher of the Song Dynasty\”: Our laws in the Song Dynasty punish evil and promote good. Although the law is cruel, in the final analysis, it is to punish evil and promote good, so that society can operate according to established rules. The existence of this rule is to make society run better and more smoothly. Therefore, a truly fair verdict should not make the public feel no fairness and justice, but only sadness and despair. If despair cannot be responded to and protected, then despair can only be shameful. Because such despair will inevitably lead to the most horrific revenge, and crime is just one of them. But how can despair be shameful? Despair is only sad, and this sadness will spread wantonly. It is so destructive that if not protected, it can only cause more widespread suffering. Despair cannot be suppressed and ignored, it can only be healed by compassion. The young man who allegedly stabbed his mother-humiliator to death has lodged an appeal. At first, the police who entered the reception room failed to calm his despair, so he chose to stab the mother-humiliator to death himself; later, the sentence of life imprisonment made himEveryone felt sad for him; this time, he chose to appeal, not knowing where his fate would go. I can only wish him well. I also want to bless this world. Fin.
