When asked whether he had deliberately killed his wife, Zhao Liuchao unmovedly insisted on his innocence and asked the judge: Will the death penalty be carried out immediately? This question immediately silenced the entire court, and the anger of the victims' families reached its peak.
Zhao Liuchao's callous attitude not only angered the victims' families, but also raised questions about the fairness of the verdict from all walks of life. Lawyers debated whether the death penalty would give the killer the punishment he deserved.
One side believes that Zhao Liuchao's actions have violated the criminal law, and his cold-blooded murder is a serious departure from human nature. The death penalty can not only give the victim's family a sense of justice, but also make other potential murderers think deeply and regret and have a deterrent effect.
The other side questioned whether the death penalty would really solve the problem. They believe that the death penalty cannot compensate for the pain of the victim's family, nor can it fundamentally eliminate the occurrence of similar cases. For Zhao Liuchao, perhaps life imprisonment would better reform his crimes and make a more substantial contribution to society.
When Zhao Liuchao's rhetorical question was heard, the anger and grief of the victims' families reached their peak. They were not only outraged by the murderer's bad behavior, but also extremely angry at his attitude of ignoring him.
A representative of the family gave an impassioned speech in court, calling on the judges to give them a fair and proper verdict. He pointed out that Zhao Liuchao's criminal behavior not only lost a life, but also destroyed the happiness of the entire family. Only through a fair verdict can the families of the victims be given spiritual comfort and mental relief.
The first-instance verdict in Zhao Liuchao's intentional homicide case has aroused widespread concern and deep thought. This case is not only an individual tragedy, but also reflects the embarrassment of the mainland judicial system for how to punish such criminals.
Whether to choose the death penalty to end the lives of the murderers or to put life imprisonment to eradicate their evil deeds is a question that is difficult to reconcile, and it is also a great test of our social conscience and concept of justice.
Whatever the outcome, we expect the justice system to make a fair judgment that meets society's expectations and give the families of the victims the salvation and comfort they deserve.
