Starting from March 2023, Yu Mou has quietly stolen his girlfriend Miss Shao's **necklace, **pendant, diamond ring and Chanel satchel and other items, and **cashed them out. When the police asked why he wanted to steal his girlfriend's things, Yu replied: "I don't dare to steal other people's." At present, after the Hongkou District Procuratorate initiated a public prosecution, Yu was sentenced to two years in prison and fined 10,000 yuan for theft, and the stolen goods were recovered and returned to the victim.
One night in early May, because her mother needed to use a necklace, Miss Shao rummaged through the cabinets at home to find her two **necklaces, but she couldn't find them, and at the same time, there were several ** earrings, diamond rings and brand-name bags. She suspected that there had been a thief in the house, but there were no traces of windows and doors being pried into the house, and she thought about it for a while, only her boyfriend Yu had the key to his home. And when he called ** to Yu, Yu refused to admit it, and told her, "Don't make a noise yet." Subsequently, Yu said that he wanted to "go back to his hometown" and left Shanghai by train.
Miss Shao suspected that her boyfriend had stolen her things, so she went to the police station to call the police, but at this time, Yu's ** was no longer available. It wasn't until more than half a month later that the police found out that Yu had reappeared in Shanghai, so they summoned him to the police station, and Yu confessed the fact of stealing his girlfriend's belongings.
The money I earned from my work couldn't pay for my love, and I was afraid that she would think I was poor and couldn't look down on me, so I stole something and sold it to maintain my expenses. Yu explained. He and Miss Shao have established a relationship for about a year, and since March 2023, he has quietly stolen his girlfriend's **necklaces, **pendants, diamond rings, Chanel satchels and other items, and has successively cashed in to others through *** stores, love ** stores, luxury goods**, etc.
When the police asked why he wanted to steal his girlfriend's things, Yu replied: "I don't dare to steal other people's." "At the time of the incident, he had stolen and sold Miss Shao's belongings for a total of RMB 3More than 60,000 yuan. The money from the sale was used for the couple's daily expenses and to buy items such as mobile phones and tablets for his girlfriend.
Prosecutor's tip.
According to the prosecutor, although the money obtained after Yu X stole his girlfriend's property and realized it was used for the common living expenses of both parties, the use of the money was only an act of disposition of the stolen property, and did not affect the determination that Yu X had committed theft. After hearing the case, the Hongkou District Procuratorate held that according to Article 264 of the Criminal Law of the People's Republic of China, if someone secretly steals other people's property, and the amount is relatively large, he should be investigated for criminal responsibility for the crime of theft. Although Yu voluntarily pleaded guilty and accepted punishment, considering that Yu did not compensate the victim's losses and was sentenced to a criminal punishment for fraud in 2020, he was a recidivist. Comprehensively considering the relevant mitigating and aggravating circumstances, it is recommended that a sentence of two years imprisonment and a concurrent fine be given.
The case was prosecuted by the Hongkou District Procuratorate, and the court finally made the above judgment.
