Chapter 369 The old case
A few days later, in response to the current focus of public opinion, Tomi, who claimed to be a member of the Illegal Justice, began a trial. The prosecutor submitted testimony and evidence, including a gun that matched the ballistics of the eight gunmen at the scene of the attack. The gun was found in Tomi's home, with the following words on it.
Tommy's fingerprints made the case almost certain, and the only remaining task seemed to be to pronounce the verdict.
Liang Shengun was right again. At the second trial, the defense lawyer provided witnesses. It was proved that at the time of the eight gunman attack, Tommy had a tryst with a woman in a motel ten kilometers away. The motel surveillance, the owner of the motel
, and a truck driver who almost had a physical conflict with Tommy, all proved that Tommy was in the motel at the time of the incident.
The trial was interrupted, and police technicians confirmed that Tomi was in the motel at that time based on surveillance and testimony. Why was the gun in Tomi's house? Why were there fingerprints on it? Tomi's response was that he had been framed.
The police approached Tommy based on the information provided by Quinta. Tommy said that the information provided by Quinta was correct, but Quinta misunderstood. At that time, he left because he received a call from the woman and went to the motel to have a tryst with her.
So how to explain that he admitted that he was one of the eight gunmen and a member of the illegal justice? Tommy explained that after knowing that he was framed, he adjusted his mentality. In order to prevent the framer from erasing the evidence that could prove his innocence, he
He only admitted the crime and threw out the guise of illegal justice in order to paralyze the framer. Facts have proved that he succeeded.
So is the statement about Sibor being attacked true or false? Tommy replied that he just randomly selected a person he knew that everyone disliked. He did not know illegal justice, and naturally he had no plan to attack Sibor. Tommy said,
After being freed, he will give himself a break and then return to work in the police force.
Tomi was released without charge two days later, and the police said they would further investigate the details of the case. Three days after Tomi was released, a middle-aged man named Navi was found next to a large trash can at the back door of a bar.
The man's body. The cause of death was a gunshot. The gunman shot Navi in the front from about three meters away, and the bullet penetrated his heart. After Navi fell to the ground, the gunman shot him in the head again.
Weiner was a criminal who entered the palace for the third time. At first, he thought it was just a vendetta or robbery. However, after comparing the ballistics, it was discovered that the gun that shot Navier turned out to be one of the guns used by the eight gunmen.
Liang Xi was right again. The target of illegal justice was not Sieber, but someone else. However, Liang Xi had been paying attention to major cases since he was a child. He had never heard of Weiner, so he asked Baker to find out. Baker checked the information and told Liang
Several of Weiner's arrests were related to images or videos of children.
Weiner is a bastard, but he only downloads and watches it. It is not Weiner's turn to eliminate illegal justice. This kind of declaration is too weak. Liang Xi doesn't understand, and neither does Dao Feng. Dao Feng's Isha and Robert go to the South
The District Criminal Investigation Department cooperated in investigating Weiner's case, but could not understand the reason why Weiner was illegally and justly killed.
It wasn't until 11 o'clock in the evening that Fiona found a website. The homepage of the website was the news of Weiner's murder plus pictures. Below were many people's messages to celebrate, saying that justice had finally arrived. Some people said: Don't forget that there is Thompson.
Scum. The server of this website is in Sweden, and the website is called Waiting for Justice.
When he saw the name Thompson, Liang Xi knew why Weiner died.
Thompson is the youngest murderer in British history. In 1993, ten-year-old Thompson and a classmate brutally murdered a two-year-old boy to death. The process was extremely cruel. The case shocked the entire Europe. In news reports, TV stations
Outraged by the fact that they were not considered minors, they sent out real photos of them. They are also the youngest murderers in British history.
At that time, the judge recommended a sentence of eight years, the jury involved in the case recommended ten years, and the Home Secretary recommended 15 years. At that time, the British Prime Minister publicly stated his attitude on the case: We should condemn more, not forgive more. People felt that
Their calls for severe punishment are so firm that a group has even emerged specifically calling for their execution. The fact that politicians dare to show such a tough attitude towards juvenile criminals shows everything.
In the end, they were sentenced to ten years in prison. Because they were minors, they continued to receive education in prison. When they were 18, they were paroled.
After parole, they and their families were given new identities in accordance with the rules for the protection of minors. Information pulled out by the Criminal Investigation Department showed that Weiner was the new identity of one of the criminals. He has not stopped committing crimes and has been jailed three times.
The other person disappeared without any information.
Here I want to explain the witness protection system. Assuming that Weiner committed a crime, the system will retrieve his fingerprints and match them with the sealed files. The investigators will get the sealed information. Assuming that Weiner is killed, the information will be fed back to the witness protection system, and the witness protection
System staff decide whether to explain to the police.
The next person to die is definitely Thompson. There is a technical problem here. If there is no evidence of Thompson's crime, it is impossible to open the sealed juvenile criminal file of Thompson. If the file cannot be opened, Thompson's new identity will not be known, and it will not be found.
To Thompson. Logically speaking, neither illegal justice nor the police have the ability to open Thompson's file. However, judging from the situation, Weiner's murder means that the murderer has obtained information about Thompson.
Without going through legal procedures, there is only one way to obtain information about Thompson, and that is to enter the witness protection agency's archives and find Thompson's file.
As mentioned earlier, the witness protection system has three departments, namely official, private and public-private organizations. The latter two are mainly to help witnesses solve their life difficulties and allow them to testify without worries. The official department is the Witness Protection Department under the Royal Prosecution Service.
The staff of the Witness Protection Department are also police officers, but they are not responsible to the Police Department. They are only responsible to the Royal Prosecution Service. Because of the needs of the case, they will also cooperate with the police of specific departments to a certain extent.
The protected information is divided into two categories, one is juvenile criminal information, and the other is tainted witness information. The first type of information is textual paper information. Only the subject’s fingerprints are left in the computer, and the fingerprints are numbered. Weiner continues after obtaining a new identity
If you commit a crime and search his identity, you will find that Weiner's number is in the witness protection system. Then the police can obtain the court's permission order through evidence and go to the Witness Protection Department to open Weiner's sealed information. The second type of situation is more complicated.
.
Because Thompson is not a criminal, the police cannot provide evidence of Thompson's crime, and the court refuses to provide the Criminal Investigation Department with a warrant to inquire about Thompson's current identity. Is it possible that Thompson was killed? Sorry, this is not the reason for sealing Thompson's file. Sealing Thompson's file is just to seal the new Thompson
Separate from childhood crimes. In other words, Thompson was dead before the age of 18, and whether Thompson died after the age of 18 has nothing to do with this file.
The Criminal Investigation Department and Blade are not very interested in Thompson. They are interested in pursuing the illegal justice of Thompson. Only by opening Thompson's file can they know Thompson's new identity and find Thompson before he is killed.
The Criminal Investigation Department and Dao Feng did not let go of the magic stick Liang Xi, but because of the Criminal Investigation Department, Liang Xi's status was not high in this investigation. Taking advantage of this cooperation with the Southern District Criminal Investigation Department, Dao Feng proposed to recruit two detectives.
The views of the police officers. The Southern District Criminal Investigation Department let Dao Feng choose by himself, as long as they are willing to go with Dao Feng.
Then Blade discovered a problem. The young detectives in the Criminal Investigation Department were inexperienced and relied more on the conclusion reports of technicians. The youngest senior detective was forty years old and had a big belly. Even if Blade could accept it, he asked him to go to Blade.
I couldn't accept the rhythm of Blade. I asked four senior detectives and they had no interest in working at Blade. They started to slow down at this age and like slow-paced activities. The Criminal Investigation Department is a front-line department that does not need to rush.
Their favorite department, and they are used to the current work rhythm.
Although she didn't find the right person, Isa still found out the details of several senior agents. After all, Liang Xi was a civilian with no discipline and a loose style. As an important department, he couldn't rely too much on any one person.
…
The two detectives, Isa, Baker and Liang Xi went to the file room of the Witness Protection Department. Although they did not have a judge's warrant, they obtained the prosecutor's seal. To put it simply, they accidentally tore the seal, checked the Thompson file, and used
A new seal was used to seal the file. From a legal point of view, this was not legal, but from a practical point of view, it could save lives. After listening to the Criminal Investigation Department’s statement, the prosecutor believed that there was a need for emergency evacuation, but could not be convinced.
The judge finally came up with a sideline plan.
While Isa and the detectives were discussing with the manager of the archives, Liang Xi was talking to a staff member. The little girl wore round glasses, was fair, and seemed to be average-looking. But Liang Xi knew that she was a cover-up beauty. . During work, she is a good girl: gentle and quiet. Her glasses, clothes and even hairstyle all illustrate this. After get off work, in her own time, the little girl should play very crazy. There are invisible fluorescent marks on her wrists, which is the sign of entering. Access sign for high-end clubs.
Why did Liang Xi see the invisible fluorescent sign? Because the little girl deliberately covered her left arm, Liang Xi became suspicious. With a little cooperation with Baker, Liang Xi solved the mystery. By the way, Liang Xi learned about file preservation.
Generally speaking, files will not be made public, nor will they be loaned out. Accompanied by a staff member, the files will be obtained from the archives and read on-site in the archives. The sealed materials can only be used as reference clues and cannot be
As evidence. Before entering the archives, various inspections including body searches are required. Electronic devices and metal objects are absolutely not allowed to be brought into the archives. Because the archives not only contain Thompson’s information, but also the stains against the British and organized crime bosses.
The identity of the witness is the new identity of an undercover agent who has been undercover in a violent criminal group for several years. These witnesses who need to change their names are all because their personal safety is threatened.
Each file has its own storage box. After opening the storage box, take out the file bag. To open the file bag, you must tear the seal and cannot use technical means to peek at the files. All this is followed and supervised by the staff. In addition, there are
Camera, you must face the camera and break the seal. After reading, reattach a valid seal issued by the prosecutor.
Liang Xi asked: "Isn't it possible for even a staff member of your department or your supervisor to access a file privately?"
The little girl answered seriously: "It's impossible. A big event happened 10 years ago. A witness who accused Gypsy criminals and his family were brutally murdered. After investigation, it was found that our staff secretly peeked into the files because their family members were threatened.
, and handed over the new identity of the witness to the Gypsies." Gypsies form a very closed group in the UK, even more closed than the Holy Church in a certain sense. They have their own clan rules, and are even governed by the elders of the clan.
Those who break the tradition will be tried and even executed. Now the situation is better, they will expel the tribesmen who do not follow the rules from the tribe. For the traditional Gypsies, the people who are expelled from the tribe have almost no value in life.
What are the ethnic rules? For example, there is no intermarriage with foreigners (excluding sleeping with foreigners or even having children). Until now, Gypsies still follow the traditional life. Because of this, they have strong internal cohesion and shelter criminals of the same ethnic group against them.
It is a very common thing for them. In order to protect criminals of the same race who are being chased by the police, they will even take up arms and attack the police.
Because of what happened 10 years ago, the Royal Prosecution Service has implemented stricter management regulations on the witness protection file room. The possibility of relying on one or two moles to access the files privately without being discovered is close to zero.
Liang Xi asked: "For example, if the person you protect is named Thresh, and Thresh dies, will you unblock it?"
The little girl explained that the protagonist of each file has fingerprints in the computer, and the fingerprint is a serial number. It is searched regularly every month. If the fingerprint of the deceased this month matches the serial number, the situation will be queried. If the deceased is normal
If the person dies, the file will be destroyed. If the person dies abnormally, they will not contact the police unless necessary.
Liang Xi asked: "What if Thresh is a criminal?"
The little girl explained that when the police search for Thresh's fingerprint information in the database, they will also get feedback. After comparing the fingerprint numbers, a prosecutor will decide whether to contact the detective handling the case. Usually, they will not contact the detective proactively because the information provided by the Protection Department is
A new identity is the identity a person starts over, unless the case is inextricably linked to his or her old identity.
Liang Xi asked: "Everyone knows about Weiner."
The little girl replied: "That's because Weiner himself did not abide by the confidentiality agreement. We will not protect his new identity, nor will we provide him with a new identity because the new identity is exposed."
After understanding it clearly, Liang Xi saw Isa and two agents entering the archives room accompanied by a staff member, and said to Baker, "I'm leaving first."
Baker asked: "What's wrong?"
