Time of the crime: Summer 1972 The place of the crime: Shuangqiao Town, Chaoyang District, Beijing
In the dim light, a young woman is humming at home while feeding her toddler in her arms, her eyes full of happiness and love.
Suddenly, a strange noise came from outside the door, breaking the quiet beauty, and before the woman could react, she saw a naked, black-veiled man suddenly break into the door.
As soon as she opened her mouth to scream, she was covered by the man,000, and no matter how hard she struggled to kick and punch, she couldn't break free of the man's clamps.
Looking at the frightened and helpless appearance of the woman in front of her, the man was full of animal lust, ripped open her clothes, and committed atrocities against her...
Afterwards, due to excessive fright and panic, the woman could not recall the man's height and physical appearance, only the masked black veil and the sentence before leaving: "I am an old hooligan!" ”
In the following ten years, with Shuangqiao Town in Chaoyang District as the center, about 10 miles in radius, as far as Tongxian, Shunyi and other places, more than 380 similar cases have appeared one after another.
The murderers all looted money after violating women, and by the way, before leaving, they arrogantly said: "I am an old hooligan!" ”
In the end, who is this crazy crime, the infamous "double bridge old hooligan", why the police only arrested him after ten years of playing with him, and what unknown details and hidden plots are there, let's find out one by one today!
01 Ten Years game: the cunning "Scud"
The occurrence of a case is accidental, but the occurrence of several dozen cases in succession is a long-planned and planned crime. The murderer must be a well-thought-out, physically competent person, and it is not enough to capture him without a large number of support.
In order to arrest this evil "shuangqiao old hooligan", Chaoyang District dispatched 300 militiamen to squat in the key villages where he might commit crimes, and only waited for the target figure to appear, and then arrested him.
Because the "old hooligans of the double bridge" at this time were still in their formative stage and were not as cunning as later, on the first day of the militia ambush, he crashed into the muzzle of the gun and ran to one of the squatting points to commit the crime.
The rabbit has already pounced on the net on its own, and it is reasonable to say that as long as the net is closed in time, the problem lies in the time of closing the net.
The militia had been informed that the killers had committed crimes in the middle of the night, and they had a well-deserved belief that they should be deployed after dark.
What they did not expect, however, was that the murderer had already entered the village at dusk that day, and by the time the militiamen began to plan to stand guard, he had already stepped on it and prepared for the crime.
In the middle of the night, a terrible cry came from the village, and only then did the militia react, and the murderer had already appeared, and they had stood for the people for so long.
Emotions of anger and self-blame overflowed their chests, and they vowed to catch this cunning, lewd "old hooligan."
Now that it was only a few minutes before the cries of the victims came, the murderer must not have run far, and as long as they searched the surrounding fields, they would certainly be able to catch him.
It turns out that their conjecture seems to be wrong again, although some people continue to find the figure of the suspected "old hooligan", but whenever everyone runs over, it is an empty, even the arresting personnel sigh that he has a pair of "scud legs".
As the minutes and seconds passed, the sun came out of the horizon, but the murderer's figure disappeared completely.
The militia had to admit that because of their own mistakes and the cunning arrest of the murderer, they had failed, and perhaps the "old hooligans" had already run out of the crowd with two "Scud legs", leaving them to be fooled.
At this moment, the gray-headed militia feels that "there is a specialty in the art industry" and that cases like this have to find the police.
So after experiencing a vigorous arrest of people on horseback, the "Double Bridge Old Hooligan" case was taken over by the police and re-investigated.
The police found something even more blood-spurting: the "old hooligan" did not run out of the encirclement at all, but hid in the straw pile of the victim's house after discovering the arrest of the militia.
After the "old hooligan" was arrested, he also admitted this statement, he watched the people gather more and more, knew that he could not run out, and fled back to the straw pile of the victim's house, where he slept comfortably.
When I saw that there was no one to guard after dawn, I came out to facilitate it, and then went to work with a big wave.
From the "old hooligan's" account, we can clearly feel his arrogance and disapproval, and there is no half guilt and remorse for the women and families who have hurt him.
Although this arrest failed, the police slowly explored the characteristics of the "old hooligans" based on evidence collection and investigation:
His crime targets were mostly rural areas with independent homes, and the targets were also single women with children.
Each time, when they were alone at home in the dark of the night, they sneaked into the uninhabited West House, stripped around the stove and masked, and then dressed and left after committing a crime.
The whole process is skillful and unhurried, without half a minute of soft procrastination, making it difficult for the police to find clues.
But this is not the most collapsed, the most collapsed is that his crime is irregular, sometimes there is no movement for months, sometimes he can commit 5 crimes a day, and he cannot prepare in advance.
Moreover, the previous arrest operation had already hit the grass and snake, which made him increase his vigilance, and it was too difficult to find him easily.
In this way, the police and the "old hooligan of the double bridge" played for ten years, and found nothing but his cunning and "Scud".
02 Accidental arrest: the credit of a brick
There is an old Chinese saying that "it is not not to report, the time has not yet arrived, and when the time comes, the newspaper is fully reported." Who could have imagined that the "old hooligan of Shuangqiao", who had caused the people to panic for ten years and the police headache for ten years, had actually been arrested because of a brick.
It was a morning in 1982, and a veteran from Liyuan, Tongxian County, Beijing, went to a supply and marketing cooperative to buy salt.
When he reached the door of the supply and marketing agency, he found a man coming out of it, and the man was obviously stagnant when he saw him, and then quickly returned to normal.
Out of the agility of a professional soldier, he couldn't help but look at the man twice, and the man seemed to feel unhappy, and also looked back at him twice.
Then the two passed each other, and there was no intersection.
But when he was about to walk into the supply and marketing agency, a female clerk suddenly poked her head out of it, and when she saw him, she shouted loudly: "Robbery? Someone robbed! ”
Hearing the shouts of the female clerk, he subconsciously looked back and found that the man who had just passed him was running like a rabbit.
Without even thinking about it, he chased after him directly, and while chasing back, he called for help from the crowd next to him, and quickly grabbed the robber.
In this way, a robber and hundreds of people who heard the noise started a large "cat and mouse" game, running in the street regardless of the image.
The image comes from the Internet
However, after running two or three kilometers, the veterans found that he was the only one left in the pursuit of the army, and the rest of the people had long since disappeared.
Such a wild chase is not the way, in case people pull out a knife or gun, they are not finished, you have to find a guy who is good at it.
So he took a quick sweep of his surroundings, unloaded a slab of brick on a low wall not far away, and then held it up to continue the chase.
The two chased me for more than 10,000 meters, chased to Sanhe County in Hebei Province, and looked at the veterans who were chasing after them, the robbers could no longer run, and he planned to end the battle by force.
However, before he could take a fighting posture, the veteran went up and slapped him directly on the spot.
Take a picture of the web of the slab tiles
At this point in the story, everyone should have guessed that this robber was the notorious "Old Hooligan of Shuangqiao" who escaped the police again and again by relying on "Scud".
I'm afraid that even he himself did not think that he, who had a brilliant record, would actually be planted under a small slab.
In this regard, we can only say: God opened his eyes, and the retribution was not happy.
03 The reason behind it: a "disharmonious" marriage
Because he was arrested for robbery, at first the police only knew that his name was Li Baocheng, an ordinary worker, and did not associate him with the "old hooligan of Shuangqiao", and the case was not in a hurry.
However, as a thief, the food in the detention center was terriblely poor, and after Li Baocheng stayed in it for more than 20 days, his heart became agitated, and he decided to take the initiative to confess some "minor crimes" and strive to get a light sentence.
However, there is a saying called "smart is mistaken by smart", a veteran criminal police officer surnamed Sun noticed a key point when interrogating him: Li Baocheng confessed to a financial room theft case involving an amount of more than 1,000 yuan, and the record of this case, which he had seen before, was included in the file of the "Shuangqiao Old Hooligan".
Sure enough, after some intensive interrogation, Li Baocheng finally admitted that he was an "old hooligan in Shuangqiao" and a "Scud" that the police had arrested for ten years.
Looking at the man who was only one meter and six meters in front of him, describing the indecent man, the heart of the case-handling personnel was mixed, and they could not imagine that the original "old hooligan" was really an "old hooligan".
However, this is not the biggest impact on the case-handling personnel, the biggest impact on them is the reason for inducing the "old hooligans" to commit crimes.
It turned out that he had long been married and had a wife, but he and his wife had always been disharmonious in their conjugal sex life, and often quarreled over it. This made him very grumpy and wanted to find someone to vent to.
After another argument with his wife and leaving home, he saw a woman sitting on the side of the road with a child in the shade, dressed in thin clothes.
So a seed called sin began to take root in Li Baocheng's heart, until he could no longer bear it in the middle of the night and did something inferior to that of an animal.
After that, whenever he quarreled with his wife, he had to find someone to vent, sometimes it was a simple robbery, sometimes it was a stalking and assault.
According to his own account and police statistics, in the decade from 1972 to 1982, Li Baocheng committed a total of 380 rapes and robberies, causing a number of economic losses and countless mental losses.
Six months after being arrested by the police, Li Baocheng was sentenced to death, and finally ended his heinous life of evil and heinous after a righteous gunshot.
The "Old Gangster of The Two Bridges" is dead, and the case of "Scud" is over, but the harm he once caused to the women and families can never be erased. How many victims suffer from mental illness as a result, and how many families become fragmented.
And all this is because of his own selfish desires.
Confucius said: Do not do to others what you do not want. Don't base your own happiness on the pain of others, this is the moral bottom line that you should abide by as a person.
If Li Baocheng had dealt with the problems between husband and wife in the right way, perhaps he was not an "old hooligan" who still let people whip corpses after death, but a happy husband and happy father.
Women and families who have been hurt will also have different lives and directions.
Reading history wisely, talking about the case clearly, I hope that everyone can learn from it, protect themselves, and not be a victim or a perpetrator!
