When it comes to Shenyang's attractions, The Middle Street Pedestrian Street is definitely an unavoidable existence. It can be said that The Middle Street Pedestrian Street is a very prosperous place in Shenyang, where there is little land. However, it is in the middle street that there is a rotten tail building that has not been taken over for many years, and after being taken over in recent years, it has become Hang Lung Plaza, and the rotten tail building is Liu Yong's Jiayang Square. It was such a big guy who was executed in 2003. So what crime did he commit, and how did he behave before his execution? Let's take a look.
Liu Yong, born in 1960, a native of Shenyang City, Liaoning Province, was once a deputy to the Shenyang Municipal People's Congress, executive vice president of the Shenyang Private Entrepreneurs Association, etc., with more than 20 enterprises and nearly 3,000 employees. If you look at it like this, Liu Yong should be a relatively large entrepreneur in the local area. But behind Liu Yong is a complete black industrial chain, Liu Yong is the organization and leader of the local underworld. Ma Xiangdong, vice mayor of Shenyang, was implicated in prison for being exposed for gambling in Macau.
Liu Yong personally or let his subordinates beat others on many occasions to maim and kill them. He also bribed various high-ranking officials, so much so that the Liu family established a huge interest group in Shenyang. In this way, even though Liu Yong was hit many times, the overall interests were not damaged. At the peak of Liu Yong, he once put down the bold statement: "One phone call at night, I can let so-and-so leader come to my home, there is nothing that cannot be done in Shenyang."
Liu Yong tried to flee to Russia via the Heihe River in July 2000, but was criminally detained by the Shenyang Municipal Public Security Bureau. In April 2002, at the Tieling Intermediate People's Court, Liu Yong was sentenced to death and fined 15 million yuan for intentional injury and other crimes. But soon in August 2003, the Liaoning Provincial High People's Court changed his sentence to a suspended death sentence. This revision of the judgment has aroused widespread discussion and concern in society. Liu Yong also became one of the few people who was arraigned and sentenced by the Supreme People's Court of the People's Republic of China.
In December 2003, Liu Yong's charges were read out: the crime of organizing and leading a mafia-type organization, the crime of intentional injury, the crime of robbery, the crime of extortion, the crime of smuggling firearms and ammunition, the crime of obstructing public service, the crime of illegal business operation, the crime of tax evasion, and the crime of bribery. The death penalty is carried out for several crimes.
Because of the drama of the trial process, Liu Yong's own performance in prison also attracted the attention of many people. After his sentence was changed in August 2003, Liu Yong felt that his life was "full of hope" again. But soon, when he heard that he had been arraigned by the Supreme People's Court, Liu Yong knew that his life would be completely over. According to the report, at that time, Liu Yong's entire face instantly became embarrassed, and he could not stand steadily.
During the period of being arraigned by the supreme trial, Liu Yong's mental state has been poor, and when he returned to the prison, Liu Yong's eyes were unfocused, and he sat on the ground alone with his legs in his arms, without saying a word, but just looked at the wall and seemed to recall his past in his mind.
The correctional officers in the prison did not mistreat Liu Yong because he was an unforgiving underworld organizer, but took meticulous care of him. After seeing that Liu Yong's mental state was not good, he went forward to enlighten Liu Yong, but Liu Yong did not react. Supervisors saw Liu Yong's ankle being worn by iron shackles and prepared a Band-Aid for him.
But it was this Band-Aid that made Liu Yong's spirit completely collapse, and he shouted, "No need to paste, no need, anyway, I will die in three days, why bother?"
It turned out that Liu Yong was not depressed because he was going to die, after all, he knew that he deserved it, and it was very normal to die. But Liu Yong was sad to see his wife and eldest brother who were haggard in court, he was very sad, and he also recalled the past with his wife and eldest brother before. Speaking of the depths of his feelings, Liu Yong even left tears. What people did not expect was that a person like Liu Yong, who was fierce and fierce, would even be sad because of the situation of his wife and family. After saying this, Liu Yong comforted himself again, "The family business that I 'worked hard' before was enough for my wife and children to live for several lifetimes, and it was not in vain."
On the day of the trial, on the way to take Liu Yong from prison to the courtroom, there was a police officer almost every 200 meters, and there were countless plainclothes policemen around, and of course, there were many armed police personnel with real guns. For such a big battle, Liu Yong looked at the morning light of Shenyang's winter, and his eyes were full of nostalgia, but he knew that he would usher in the final judgment. Outside the courthouse, countless Chinese and foreign journalists set up long guns and short cannons, waiting for Liu Yong to enter the courtroom to pronounce the verdict. Liu Yong's family also came to the door of the courtroom, and Liu Yong's wife wore sunglasses, making people unable to see the look. Liu Yong's brother wore a trench coat and anxiously waited for Liu Yong's arrival.
In the convoy that sent Liu Yong to the courtroom, the people along the way knew that it was Liu Yong's vehicle and cursed and cheered Liu Yong on the side of the road. It can be seen how many evil deeds Liu Yong has done in the local area, how many innocent people, and how many families have been destroyed because of Liu Yong alone. And Liu Yong heard the insults outside, his hands were tightly clenched, and he didn't know whether his heart was full of fear or guilt, but Liu Yong knew that he had no way to look up, nor did he dare to look up, he was afraid of those eyes.
Looking back at the door of the court, although Liu Yong's family was surprised by the Supreme Court's trial, they were still full of hope in their hearts. Because in general, if the death penalty is to be carried out, the family will be asked to send a new set of clothes in advance. But Liu Yong's family did not receive such a notice, so Liu Yong is likely to uphold the suspended death sentence.
But when they got to the trial, they knew they were dead wrong. In response to Liu Yong's crimes, the prosecution directly produced more than 200 case files. Liu Yong also confessed to this, crying bitterly in court, saying that he was willing to compensate and try to forgive.
But the law will not bypass such a criminal person, and the supreme trial pronounced a verdict in court at about 10 o'clock: revoke the suspension of death in the second instance of the Liaoning Provincial High People's Court and change it to the death penalty. In the face of this result, whether it is Liu Yong himself or Liu Yong's wife, it is like a thunderbolt on a sunny day. Liu Yong's lawyer, Tong Lin, quickly left the courtroom, facing the reporters outside the door and Liu Yong's family, Tong Lin said with a blue face: "No, no."
After hearing this result, Liu Yong was prepared in his heart. But when he saw his wife in the audience, he still couldn't help but wave his hand, as if he was saying goodbye. Liu Yong's wife was very out of control and planned to rush directly to liu yong. After being stopped by the police, Liu Yong's wife knew that she was powerless to return to heaven, and could only sit on the ground and wail loudly, and everyone around her could not bear it. One hour after the trial, Liu Yong walked calmly to the execution site and was executed by injection. At this point, the case of Liu Yong, which has attracted much attention, has come to an end.
What the editor wants to say here is not to do things that violate the law, even if you can get away with it for a while, but the legal network is restored, and the omission is not leaked, and the bad guys will eventually be punished by the law. And with the continuous advancement and intensification of the anti-gang crime and anti-evil actions, as a law-abiding citizen, we must learn to get along with people in a friendly way and reject violence. I hope that this story will make all the officials understand these truths. I don't know what you think of Liu Yong's story? You are welcome to leave a message in the comments section.
