In recent years, China has set off a wave of fighting tigers, imposed legal sanctions on some people, effectively purified the social atmosphere, and demonstrated the firm position of the party and the party on corruption. Among them, there is a group of people who are sought after because of fighting tigers. However, in this storm, Chen Liangyu's case as a "vice-national" cadre has attracted widespread attention and controversy. Not only because of its staggering amount, but also because his wife hired an excellent lawyer to convert it from a death sentence to a fixed-term prison sentence, and this lawyer was Gao Zicheng, who was the favorite at that time to take advantage of legal loopholes and distort facts. Chen Liangyu has received a high-quality educational environment and a perfect system, he is a cadre who has come step by step from the grassroots level, and has even made certain contributions to local economic development, so he is regarded as a talented **.
However, as time passed, Chen Liangyu gradually fell into the whirlpool of power and money, and was affected by the huge whirlpool of society, and his desire for power and money continued to expand, which eventually led him to pursue self-interest in a big way. According to the results of the investigation at that time, it can be inferred that the amount of his suspected **social security** is as high as 3.2 billion yuan, which is really unbelievable. These social security ** are the crystallization of the hard work of the general public, the crystallization of their sweat and sweat, but Chen Liangyu regards them as personal property and seeks personal interests for himself and his family. His approach has caused a lot of repercussions in society. What he did was not only a criminal act against the country, but also a treachery and physical and mental destruction to the people. In addition to being suspected of social security, the charges against Chen Liangyu at that time also included moral turpitude, abuse of power, engaging in power trading, accepting bribes, abuse of power, and dereliction of duty.
After being supported by these crimes and evidence, Chen Liangyu will face extremely high legal sanctions, which may result in a life sentence, and possibly even life imprisonment. However, with the firm defense and assistance of lawyer Gao Zicheng, these crimes were directly cut into two and the sentence was changed to 18 yearsIn order to get a number of charges dismissed, Gao's wife hired a senior lawyer who, despite his modest profile in the industry, has extensive experience in defending **. Gao Zicheng used his solid legal professional knowledge and skills, and through his familiarity with criminal regulations and procedures, he accurately analyzed the details of the entire case, and found out many legal loopholes and flaws, thus creating favorable conditions for Chen Liangyu's commutation.
Under Gao Zicheng's careful planning, he meticulously divided Chen Liangyu's case and emphasized other features in the defense process, successfully achieving the dismissal of the crime by highlighting Chen Liangyu's family background, past contributions, and humane defense. On this basis, he put forward some reasons that he thought were more reasonable. In the process of Gao Zicheng's distortion of the facts, he finally won a lighter culpability for Chen Liangyu, so that he received the lightest punishment. Gao Zicheng has become the focus of society, and his behavior violates the norms of the law and society, so he must accept the condemnation and sanctions of the society in order to maintain his legal dignity and justice as a lawyer. In such cases, public confidence in legal justice and advocacy for anti-corruption are of paramount importance. Although our country has been actively promoting anti-corruption work, there are still loopholes in some ** behaviors, which provides opportunities for ** like Chen Liangyu to take advantage of.
At the same time, Chen Liangyu's 18-year prison sentence has caused widespread public discussion and repercussions, and this verdict marks a period of time when he has changed from facing the death penalty to real life. All this shows that in criminal defense, the lawyer is not only a neutral third party, but also an advocate. Mr. Gao's defense strategy not only demonstrates his personal ability and professionalism, but also demonstrates his excellent ability to exploit legal loopholes and distort facts. However, his actions have also raised our awareness that loopholes in national laws are bound to exist at all times, so in order to avoid the recurrence of the Gao Zicheng and Chen Liangyu incidents, we must take immediate steps to repair and improve the law.
