introduction
On August 18, 1993, in an apartment in Los Angeles, Peng Zengji came to the residence of his lover and son. However, when he pushed open the door of the apartment, he was stunned by what he saw.
Ji Ranbing's chest was scarred and he had already lost his breath. He hurriedly came to the crib and found that his 5-month-old son Ji Qiwei had also been suffocated to death. The frightened Peng Zengji quickly reported the case to the US police. The suspect arrested by the police was Peng Zengji's original wife Lin Liyun.
(Ji Ran Bing)
However, is the trial process of this murder case really so smooth? Will Lin Liyun really admit that she killed Ji Ranbing and her husband's illegitimate child?
1. The murderer who has been entangled in litigation for eight years was released, and the verdict caused controversy
Although 30 years have passed since the murder. However, this case is still capable of causing a lot of controversy to this day.
In the end, the court convicted Lin Liyun of murder in anger and sentenced him to 11 years in prison. In view of the fact that Lin Liyun has been in prison for more than 7 years and has behaved well, it was decided to release him early. She will then be deported back to Taiwan, China, and will not be allowed to set foot in the United States for the rest of her life.
(Lin Liyun)
This is the third indictment trial against Lin Liyun, which finally ended with Lin Liyun's release from prison.
After learning that he could go home, Lin Liyun was relieved, but there were different voices about such a verdict.
(Lin Liyun walking out of the courtroom)
Some people believe that the fact that the murderer was convicted in the past, but in the end he was given a light sentence by relying on money, and that he could escape the punishment of the law with money, which reflects the injustice of American justice.
It turned out that during the trial of the American court, there was a jury of 12 jurors. Once one person contests the charges against the murderer, then the accused may escape justice.
Therefore, in order to convince the jurors, Lin Liyun hired two ace defenders, one is the chief forensic Baden, and the other is the well-known criminal expert Li Changyu, both of whom have very high appearance fees, which can reach $400 an hour.
(Changyu Lee)
And many wives in Taiwan who are similar to Lin Liyun's status have expressed sympathy for her. They think that Lin Liyun, as Peng Zengji's original partner, worked hard with her husband to build the family and property, but was taken away by the young and beautiful Ji Ranbing effortlessly, and she had to suffer prison because of this, which is a matter worthy of sympathy.
A Taiwanese wife, Carina Sun, who supports Ms. Lin, said she believes Ms. Lin is not the murderer.
So, is Lin Liyun really innocent? What was the basis for the police to lock up the suspect in the first place?
Second, the original partner of the "little three" was angry, and his anger led to the "double corpse bloody case"
Before introducing the evidence that the police locked up the murderer during the investigation, let's first sort out how Lin Liyun discovered her husband's extramarital affair and why was she suspected of committing the crime?
It turned out that at the end of September 1990, when Ling Liyun was packing his luggage for Peng Zengji, who had returned to Taiwan from the mainland, he found a white T-shirt stained with lipstick. After nearly 20 years of marriage, Ling Liyun thinks that she has a good relationship with Peng Zengji, and after seeing this T-shirt, she immediately asked her husband, where did this T-shirt come from?
( Lin Liyun)
Peng Zengji also said frankly at the time that it was given to him by a girl he knew in Qingdao. He also comforted his wife, saying that he and Ji Ranbing were just in a general relationship.
(Peng Zengji)
Can be subsequent. Lin Liyun soon discovered that the relationship between this girl named Ji Ranbing and her husband was not ordinary. Ji Ranbing suddenly became a secretary in their Shanghai branch.
In January 1992, Peng Zengji went on a business trip to the United States and took Ji Ranbing over. On the same day, Lin Liyun called Peng Zengji and found that it was Ji Ran who answered the phone, and he was furious. She left for her home in the United States and scolded Xiao San for not having the right to come here. However, he was ridiculed by Ji Ranbing.
Later, Lin Liyun chased to Qingdao again and asked Ji Ranbing to stop pestering her husband. But Ji Ranbing was young and vigorous, and his momentum pressed Lin Yitou, and Lin Liyun returned in vain.
(Lin Liyun and Ji Ranbing)
In July 1992, the insider became pregnant, and in order to avoid recurrence, Peng Zengji quietly sent her to the United States to raise a baby and give birth.
Peng Zengji always thought that his wife did not know about the incident, and after the incident, when the police locked the suspects on him and Lin Liyun, he also persuaded Lin Liyun to accept the police investigation together.
The results of the police investigation showed that Lin Liyun was not innocent, and she had sufficient motives to commit the crime. failed to negotiate with Ji Ranbing three times, and finally chose to kill.
Subsequently, although there were no fingerprints and murder weapons left at the scene, it could have been fatal, and the 18 knife marks on Ji Ranbing's body showed that the murderer chose such a cruel killing method out of anger.
(The apartment where the deceased lived)
In addition, at the time of the crime. Lin Liyun is in his own house in the United States, only 3 miles away from the apartment where Ji Ranbing lives.
And Lin Liyun's claim that he didn't know Ji Ranbing's residence is also unreliable, Ji Ranbing's arm has tooth marks, which have been confirmed by saliva testing, which is exactly what Lin Liyun left.
(bite marks)
But Lin Liyun insisted that he didn't know anything. So, on January 8, 1994, the police again asked Peng Zengji and Lin Liyun to be investigated, and they also arranged a polygraph test. Peng Zengji passed safely.
But when it came to Lin Liyun, the police first asked her if she knew Ji Ranbing's residence, and when Lin Liyun replied that she didn't know, the lie detector showed that she had not passed the test. Lin Liyun failed to pass the next 6 questions.
In desperation, the police had to use some special tactics, he asked the couple to have a separate conversation, and they recorded it.
(Lin Liyun)
Peng Zengji desperately asked his wife if she had been to the scene of the crime. In the end, his wife only said that Ji Ranbing asked her to come over. In the end, Lin Liyun admitted that he fought with Ji Jiran Bing and bit her, but the knife wound on the deceased's body was hit by himself.
The tape became strong evidence for life imprisonment in the first instance, but Lin Liyun immediately chose to appeal, and the lawyer in the second instance argued that the tape violated the right to privacy. At that time, Lin Liyun had been interrogated for 9 hours, and it was possible to confess under pressure. Perhaps out of sympathy, two jurors found Lin not guilty.
On January 24, 2001, the case went through the third trial. The U.S. judiciary is evidence-oriented, and audio tapes can no longer be used as evidence in court. And the bite marks on his hands cannot prove that Lin Liyun must have killed someone, and the prosecutor can only start from their relationship between love and enemies, and give situational evidence that only Lin Liyun has a motive to kill.
(Chinese in the auditorium)
Everyone knows that the original partner is the most suspicious, but Lin has always refused to admit his guilt. The case was brought to an impasse. But on June 29, Lin Liyun admitted that he killed in anger, and Ji Ranbing's family could only say that they could only seek civil compensation from them now after repeated trials.
3. The "initiator" refuses to show up, and there is no winner in emotional entanglements
So, in this love murder case, where is the male protagonist Peng Zengji, who is in the whirlpool of events and has emotional entanglements with two women?
After Lin Liyun's arrest, Peng Zengji would visit the prison when he went to the United States, but he did not appear in the American courtroom. And Peng Zengji himself is also very low-key. He lived in seclusion and avoided appearing in front of the media. The Ji family followed Peng Zengji's wishes and tried to avoid exposure.
(Ji Ran Bing)
Ji Ranbing's body was also hastily cremated, and Peng Zengji just wanted to end the matter quietly.
In this emotional entanglement, neither the original partner nor the junior are winners. The third party, Ji Ranbing, lost her life and child, and Lin Liyun lost her freedom for nearly 8 years, and her charges can never be cleared.
This incident also makes people think deeply, those who meddle in other people's marriages end up paying a heavy price, and those who defend their own marriages have committed irreparable crimes, is it really worth it?
