In the darkest hour before dawn, as the night fell, the execution team slowly marched towards the place of execution in the faint morning light. In silence, only the slight noise of the tires rubbing against the asphalt road can be heard. Li was handcuffed and sat in the back seat of the police car with a numb face. He remembered the moment when he committed the horrific crime years ago, and the stern tone of the judge when he handed down the sentence.
He knew that everything had come to an end, just waiting for the final judgment. Next to the police car is a white ambulance with fluorescent light reflected from its body. Inside the car sat Doctor Shi and Zhao **, who will accompany the team to the execution site to perform their final duties. This is not their first time. Dr. Shi remembers the first criminal to be executed, a middle-aged man who killed for money. Before the execution, he convulsed and cried, but soon, a gunshot rang out, and he was forever silent. "It's well deserved. Doctor Shi thought.
When the convoy came to the execution site, Li, who was wearing a black hat, was escorted out of the car, and the handcuffs pulled out the mournful scream between the handcuffs. He was determined, as if he were going to look at the sky for the last time, even through his hat. "It's time to confirm death. Doctor Shi glanced at Zhao **. They pushed open the back door of the ambulance, ready for whatever was to come. Confirm the death of the prisoner and prevent major medical accidents "Bang! A gunshot rang out, and Li fell to the ground.
Dr. Shi quickly ran to Li's side to confirm. First of all, he checked Li's vital signs - no breathing, no pulse. Then he performed a pain response test, and pinched the edge of Li's nail hard, but there was no response. Finally, Dr. Shi took out the stethoscope and confirmed that Li's heartbeat had stopped after repeated auscultation. "I am dead. Dr. Shi waved to the armed police. Just a moment before the lift car drove over, Zhao ** frowned.
After recognizing this fraud, Dr. Shi quickly commanded the armed police to take out the counterfeits. A possible medical malpractice, thus avoided. If it weren't for Zhao **'s careful attention, the consequences would be unimaginable. The phenomenon of "stand-in death" is not unique. Dr. Shi recalls a case five years ago in which a male death row inmate escaped execution by pretending to be seriously ill. At that time, Dr. Shi was severely warned by his superiors, and he learned from the pain and never dared to make a mistake again. In every execution since then, Dr. Shi has been extremely cautious. He always reminded himself to be wary of the trick of "changing the tanuki for the prince", and carefully checked every detail to ensure that the death penalty procedure was foolproof. He understands the noble mission he is shouldering and must not fail to live up to the trust of the law and the people.
In the process of dealing with emergencies and ensuring a smooth execution, medical staff are also ready to respond to various emergencies. One of the prisoners on death row burst into flames moments before the execution, drawing a knife from behind and brandishing it. The recorder who was being questioned for the final moment had his hand scratched. Zhao ** quickly took out iodophor and bandages from the medical box and performed on-site first aid for the recorder. "It can't be delayed any longer. Dr. Shi gestured to the armed police. The armed police will understand, raise their guns and shoot, and will be on death row**.
Zhao ** escorted the injured into an ambulance and sent them to a nearby hospital for further **. In addition, due to emotional stress, death row inmates often lose consciousness briefly before the gunshots. This requires Dr. Shi to wake up the offender with a first-aid tablet to ensure that he is executed in a conscious state, otherwise it will be difficult to rehabilitate the family. While calming down emergencies, medical staff should always pay attention to the safety of the armed police. For example, during an execution, a recruit accidentally misfired and shot a teammate in the calf. Dr. Shi immediately stopped the bleeding and bandaged the wounded to prevent life-threatening bleeding.
Donating organs to make the last effort to atone for their sinsFacing the death penalty, many prisoners choose to take the time to repent and make the last effort to atone. The most common of these is the decision to donate body organs. Li Ming is one such death row inmate. Dr. Shi still remembers that when he verified the volunteer letter, Li Ming said with red eyes: "I can save at least one or two people with this hateful life, and I can accumulate some virtue after death." He hopes that his heart and kidneys can prolong the lives of patients. These repentant organ providers have given many donors a new lease of life. On the operating table, I have seen too many patients who are bedridden due to organ failure. After an operation, they passed away with joy and anticipation, and among them was Li Ming's power to sacrifice his life.
When it comes to the donor's body, Dr. Shi is more cautious and strict. Because the peak of organ activity occurs within 2 hours after death, beyond this time window, the organ can be easily damaged. So once the death verdict is completed, Zhao ** will immediately drive to the paired hospital. Under her precise driving, there has never been a failure to transplant donated organs. Considerate of the family, the details determine the success or failure of the execution, and after the execution, there is also a humanitarian mission waiting for medical personnel - to return the remains of death row inmates to their families.
Dr. Shi remembers the family of Li Zhong, the first prisoner to be executed. After the execution, Li Zhong's old mother insisted on seeing her son for the last time. When he heard that the prisoner's car had driven directly to the entrance of the village, the old man was so sad that he wept bitterly. "In our business, the devil is in the details. Dr. Shi decided to change his approach. He instructed Zhao ** to drive a white ambulance and slowly deliver Li Zhong to the door of the old man's house. The old man finally saw the remains of his only son, and wept bitterly. Since then, Dr. Shek has required the body of every death row inmate to be escorted by ambulance. He told everyone that this is to take care of the feelings of the prisoner's family and avoid secondary harm.
Moreover, the solemn atmosphere of the ambulance is also more worthy of carrying the deceased's dignity and dignity. Zhao ** drove an ambulance, and he had already sent countless criminals to the last journey. She often meditated on Dr. Shek's words – that any one of our details can affect a family. She works meticulously, just to keep the last bottom line of the law. Ambulances in the death penalty controversy.
The question of the abolition of the death penalty has always been debated. Opponents of the death penalty argue that the right to life is above all else, and that deprivation of life is itself a crime. However, proponents of the death penalty emphasize that serious crimes must be severely punished in order to correct social morality. Opponents of the death penalty often grasp the point of "cruelty", arguing that shooting, lethal injection, etc., add to the needless suffering of prisoners. Some suggested that it was the medical staff who "assisted" the cruel punishment. But Dr. Shi argues that it was the medical staff who ensured that the offender was killed quickly and avoided a long period of pain. In addition, the complexity of the death penalty process has been criticized. Opponents argue that cumbersome and redundant confirmation processes are "crushing humanity." But the complexity of the process also guarantees prudence.
Dr. Shek firmly believes that their caution avoids a miscarriage of justice. If there is no medical staff to check it, innocent people may be killed by mistake. In favour of it or not, ambulances are an essential part of the death penalty process. It is precisely because of the presence and supervision of medical personnel that this punishment can be carried out in an orderly manner within the framework of procedural justice. Perhaps one day, as society progresses, the death penalty will be abolished. But for now, ambulances will stick to their posts. A beam of light pierced through the morning fog and slanted onto the roof of the white ambulance. Inside sat Doctor Shi and Zhao **, with a determined and unpredictable look on their faces.
They chose a different path—one that accompanied the sinner to the end of his life, and the hammer of justice fell firmly. It is a sacred and arduous mission, far beyond the reach of human beings. However, they did not flinch in the slightest, and just silently stuck to their duties. When the last moment comes, they will push open the back door of the ambulance again to take on a new challenge. This car, which will forever be parked at the scene of the execution, witnesses the rainbow after the storm of the law.
