In the nineties, prisoners from Sichuan Province were executed, and these executed prisoners were taken into a convoy escorted by armed police with live ammunition, and then set off for the execution site in the suburbs.
The entire execution process of death row prisoners
Along the way, the convoy of prisoners was escorted by several police cars, and the truck at the front was also equipped with a light machine gun.
And equipped with such a fierce weapon, naturally to ensure that there will be no accidents on the way and during the execution, after all, when a person knows that he is about to be executed, it is not surprising to make any crazy moves.
I saw that each prisoner's hands were tied behind his back, and there were two armed police soldiers with guns next to him, very vigilantly guarding.
When the motorcade arrived near the scene of the execution, all the prisoners to be executed would be taken to the square for a public trial meeting, at this time there was already a light rain in the sky, and the road was wet after a while, but even so, the scene of the public trial meeting was still full of onlookers.
When the judges sitting on the judgment stand announced everyone's names, they began to loudly announce their crimes and simple crimes, and all those present listened quietly, but when they heard some of the most horrific criminal acts, they would still burst into a series of whispers, followed by the sound of ear-to-ear discussion.
When all the prisoners were tried and all the prisoners were tried, the armed police soldiers escorted the prisoners to the execution ground, which is located on a small hillside on the outskirts of the city, and this land overgrown with green weeds will be the final destination of the four death row prisoners.
The executioners asked the prisoners to stand in the predetermined execution position, at which time each prisoner had a white sign around his neck with their names and the crimes committed, and then a staff member in a black suit held a video camera and filmed each prisoner, which not only verified the identity of the prisoner, but also left a video for the execution.
When all the preparations were completed, the shooting officially began, perhaps to prevent everyone from seeing the bloody scene and showing discomfort, or perhaps the filmmaker himself was afraid of the shooting scene, at this critical moment the camera suddenly fell rapidly, and only a lot of messy weeds and branches appeared in the picture, and then the sound of gunfire was heard.
When the camera was focused on the scene of the execution again, only a few fallen bodies were visible, and several judicial police officers were doing the final examination next to them.
At this moment, a bailiff in charge at the scene seemed to notice something strange, and he quickly walked to the prisoner who fell on the far right, squatted down to look at it, and then said something to several other staff members.
Then he made an incredible motion, only to see him stand up, take out the pistol from his waist, and shoot the prisoner again, and only turned away when he was completely confirmed.

The shooting system on the mainland
In the 90s of last century, during the whole process of shooting at a public trial meeting in Sichuan, I saw that the executioner made another shot at one of the prisoners who had been shot and fell. Didn't the previous execution kill the prisoner? Is it reasonable for this judicial policeman to take out a pistol after the execution?
With the continuous progress and improvement of the mainland legal system, many ancient death sentences such as beheading and lingling have all been abolished, and the execution methods of prisoners who committed the death penalty have only retained two kinds of execution: shooting and lethal injection, and shooting is the mainstream.
Since the beginning of the Republican period, there have been examples of taking prisoners to public places for execution, compared to beheading, this method of execution can play the same deterrent purpose at the same time, but also make the entire execution process less bloody as beheading, more in line with the progress of civilized society.
Although many countries in the world have abolished the death penalty or changed to a milder drug injection, and the mainland is still one of the few countries that retains the death penalty, this does not mean that the mainland is not civilized enough, but considers the need to retain this punishment method to deter those extreme criminals, so that those criminals still have a fear of the death penalty in their hearts.
What's more interesting is that when a prisoner is sentenced to be shot, the bullet that will end his life still needs to be paid, reimbursed by the prisoner himself, it is said that the price is about ten yuan, spend their own money, buy their own life, those gangsters who still want to break the law and commit crimes, they have to weigh in their hearts to find out whether this transaction is worth it.
But as mentioned earlier, everything has accidents, especially the execution method of shooting is generally operated and executed by people, although the personnel who carry out the execution are generally professional snipers and judicial police, but it is still difficult to ensure that a shot can be killed immediately, especially now that everyone knows that the human body structure is still very magical, as long as it is not hit the point, it will not die immediately, so what to do in this situation?
In this regard, in the mainland's shooting system, such a regulation and solution have long been formulated, that is, at the scene of each execution, a main executor and deputy executor will be arranged, under normal circumstances, the main executor is responsible for executing the execution, and the deputy executor stands on the side to watch and prevent the prisoner from suddenly escaping.
If it is determined that the execution is successful, then you can go to the next procedure, but if you find that the prisoner still has signs of life, then as seen in the previous video picture, take out the pistol you are carrying and shoot another shot at the key part of the prisoner to ensure that it is fatal.
Therefore, some people who post on the Internet that if they do not die after the shooting, they will be sent to rescue, and then the sentence to life imprisonment is foolish, after all, the death penalty sentenced by the court is the final result, and the shooting is only a process, regardless of whether there are unexpected circumstances in this process, it is necessary to ensure that the final result remains unchanged, so as to maintain the fairness and authority of the law.
However, there are not many cases of gun replacement at the execution site, if it is encountered by which prisoner, it can only be said that he is unlucky, because the reason for the shooting retention also has its rapid and lethal characteristics, which can make the prisoner not feel too much pain, reflecting the people-oriented concept, those who encounter the replacement gun, but really feel the pain of punishment. However, although the mainland has not abolished the death penalty, not many have actually imposed the death penalty.
Sin deserves to end
When all the criminals were brought to justice, the video picture once again heard the discussion of the onlookers, and many people's words even carried a sense of great joy, because when the public trial meeting was held in the square before, the judges read aloud the crime committed by these people, that is, the crime of human trafficking, in other words, the few who were shot were human traffickers.
Our motherland is vast and has many people, but no matter where you are, as long as you hear the three words "human trafficker", you will inevitably hate it, especially if there are children in the family, there will be some fear in your heart.
In the nineties of the last century, the horror legend about human traffickers deeply affected the children born at that time, for example, they would demonize, pat your head and follow them, or maybe they would deliberately give you sugar and toys, but when you eat or play obsessed, you will become delirious and eventually taken to a different place, and after being abused, you will become a beggar, and become a tool for human traffickers to make money.
At that time, traffickers could be described as extremely arrogant, a teenage girl riding home would be stopped by a van and directly abducted, and a twelve-year-old girl who stayed at home to take care of her three-year-old brother was slashed three times after being broken into the house, and her brother was taken away.
These lawless gangsters are organized and unpreventable, and there are at least dozens or even hundreds of people in a human trafficking group, and they have a clear division of labor, some are responsible for cheating, some are responsible for robbery, some are responsible for transportation, and some are responsible for selling.
These people can be identified from all walks of life, from taxi drivers, coal miners, and even villages in remote areas where village officials lead people in human trafficking.
So why were human traffickers so crazy and common at the time? That's because people at that time did not think that buying and selling people was a big crime, and even thought that buying sons and wives was a very common thing, especially in Sichuan, mountainous, remote and poor villages, men could not marry their wives, they would "buy", no boys to inherit, also buy, which prompted a huge human trafficking trade market.
And these traffickers, who have caused many families to be separated from their wives and broken families, have actually become great good people in the eyes of those buyers! It is this ignorant and backward concept that has caused countless human tragedies among women and children. What's more, they will treat the purchased women and children as their own property, even if the police come to the door, they will fight by force.
So when the prisoner in the video was tried, so many people were there to watch, they stood quietly and watched, even through the screen, they could feel an irrepressible anger, because there were victims among them! The wordless silence was like a mighty storm about to erupt, tearing the few unconscionable traffickers to shreds.
When the four criminals finally came to justice and the staff confirmed that all the condemned prisoners were dead, forensic doctors in protective suits came around, packed the prisoners' bodies into yellow woven bags that had been prepared, and then carried them to the car. In this regard, the crowd of onlookers all applauded, and burst into cheers, at this time the gloomy sky finally stopped raining, and the sun's rays appeared behind the clouds.
Although after a long period of severe crackdown, there are now many fewer traffickers than in the last century, we still need to be vigilant, strengthen anti-trafficking education, and immediately report to the police once we encounter suspected traffickers, so that the term trafficker will completely disappear, and let the evil of human trafficking be extinguished in the world
