At eight o'clock in the morning on April 10, 2015, Sister Dong carried a bucket and pushed open the door of Mrs. Wu's house.
According to the usual point, the old lady should have gotten up to light the fire, but today the open-air stove is not busy with her.
Maybe I've overslept! Sister Dong didn't think much about it, she came to the well with a familiar car, and shouted at the side of her throat while fetching water: "Erniang, I'll come and get water." ”
But the strange thing is that Mrs. Wu didn't respond even after shouting several times, and Sister Dong chuckled psychologically, and hurriedly put the bucket and pushed open the unlocked back room.
Erniang, what's wrong with you Erniang, don't scare me. ”
The scenario is repeated. Mrs. Wu lay in a pool of blood and was dying, and soon, a roaring ambulance broke the tranquility of the village and sent her to the Chinese medicine hospital for rescue.
But unfortunately, Mrs. Wu still died of ineffective rescue, and her daughters hugged their heads and cried, unwilling to believe that the old man could have died of death, but died of pain due to an accidental fall.
Just as they were grieving, an old doctor with sharp eyes walked straight towards them, and the first thing he said was: "The old man did not die accidentally, you should call the police immediately." ”
It turned out that when treating the head wounds, the doctor noticed that something was wrong: how could these wounds be horizontal?
Unlike the wounds caused by ordinary falls, these wounds are scattered throughout the head, and it is generally difficult to cause such a serious injury if it is not a violent fall and rolls down.
Mrs. Wu's daughter hurriedly called the police, and it didn't take long for Linyi ** to quickly rush to the traditional Chinese medicine hospital with a forensic doctor.
After a detailed examination of the deceased, the results quickly confirmed the doctor's suspicion that Mrs. Wu had as many as five head wounds, all of which were caused by blunt force blows.
The police made a comprehensive analysis and believed that the murder weapon should be something like a stick.
But Mrs. Wu is 89 years old this year, and she is already half of the earth, ** for what reason do you have to kill an old man?
After the inspection, **, under the leadership of Mrs. Wu's daughter, she came to Wujia Village, Mengsi Town, Linyi County, where the crime occurred.
Mrs. Wu's home.
At this time, the villagers outside the deceased's room were already standing in the fun, and everyone was talking about what had just happened.
But strangely, the villagers' expressions were indifferent, and there was no sadness on their faces, as if the victims were strangers to them.
Sister Dong walked out of the crowd, she was to inform the doctor that Mrs. Wu was the one who fell accidentally, and after finding the old lady lying on the side of the bed, she was so frightened that she fell back again and again.
Then ran out of the door to tell his mother-in-law, and the two dared to enter the door to check, and when they found that there was still breath, they dialed 120.
In retrospect, Sister Dong still had palpitations: "It's so scary, lying on the ground with her head on her back, her hands on the stove, isn't this just wrestling when I see it?" ”
She thought that Mrs. Wu accidentally fell down while burning the fire, which led to the accident, but she didn't expect that she was murdered.
Who is it that is so cruel to hurt an old man who is nearly ninety years old?
* First of all, a detailed investigation of the crime scene was carried out, but problems came one after another, and the environment at the scene also put great pressure on the police.
The room where the old lady was staying was a mess, things were thrown in a mess, footprints on the floor were disorganized, and even blood was trampled everywhere.
It turned out that in order to save Mrs. Wu, after the ambulance came, because the room was too narrow, several people had to make a lot of effort to carry the victim into the ambulance.
This has also led to the serious destruction of traces and physical evidence, and the difficulty of the case has escalated.
At the same time, the police who went to get the monitoring also returned in vain, and when they came, they saw the only monitoring probe in the village, but it was not turned on in the past few days!
* The soldiers can only be divided into two ways, one group goes to the village road to explore other surveillance, and the other group stays to investigate Mrs. Wu's social background.
It is understood that Mrs. Wu is a native of Shandong, her husband died a long time ago, leaving four daughters, and after being raised with hard work, they also married in other villages.
Since then, she has lived alone, poor and without any financial **, her daughter will come to visit when she is free, and come over with a little food and money.
And the village often helps to take care of her, and the corresponding subsistence allowance and welfare policies will think of her for the first time.
I don't understand what I was doing with her? She didn't have much money. Ma Zhanchang, the village party secretary, was puzzled by this.
After the testimony of Sister Dong, who has a close relationship with the old lady, there are no traces of turning in Mrs. Wu's home, and the quilts and cabinets on the bed are restored and kept as they are.
Based on these circumstances, it is unlikely that you will be killed for money.
However, Yitong ** quickly changed the mind of the police, and it was Mrs. Wu's eldest daughter who called.
She said in **: "My mother has more than 1,000 yuan in cash, which was taken out by seeing a doctor not long ago. ”
The money went to **? With the assistance of Mrs. Wu's daughter, ** turned over the cabinet and saw no trace of the money.
Could it really be that someone knows about the existence of this money and takes the opportunity to murder the old man, so who is this person? will take risks for a thousand dollars.
According to the experience of investigating such cases in the past, the police set their sights on some young people who did not learn and did not know how to do it: "They are very likely to commit robberies because they have no money to go online, or play games." ”
However, after some investigation and investigation, no clues were found, and because the village has a small population, there have been almost no robberies and thefts in recent years.
Because this money is related to the direction of the investigation of the case, in order to determine the specific amount, for the sake of prudence, ** found Mrs. Wu's four daughters in turn to ask.
When one of the daughters heard this, her face changed drastically, and she immediately blurted out: "The money is with me." ”
It turned out that when rescuing Mrs. Wu, the doctor asked the family to help take off her clothes, and the daughter found 900 yuan in her mother's autumn pants and put it in her pocket.
The daughter explained: "I was in too much of a hurry to save people at that time, so I forgot about it. ”
With the money found, the speculation of killing people for money has also been eliminated, and there is still a possibility left, revenge for revenge.
So, at such an age as Mrs. Wu, who has a deep hatred with her, and has made trouble to this point.
* Immediately expand the intensity of interviews and conduct an investigation into the victims' social connections, but the results were unsatisfactory.
Mrs. Wu's reputation in the whole village is not good, everyone has little contact with her, except for a few kind-hearted people, others almost avoid her.
However, a villager quietly approached the police and revealed that the night before the crime, he heard the sound of Mrs. Wu arguing with her neighbor.
The movement was very loud, and the old lady scolded very badly. ”
Many people heard it, but this is not an isolated case, she also had an argument with another neighbor, and even went to the police station at one point.
After **investigation, considering her age and the size of the contradiction, three neighbors came into the sight of **.
The first: Wang Yongqiang in the east
Wang Yongqiang is currently the most suspected, because the day before the crime, he and Mrs. Wu had a quarrel that started with a pile of broken bricks.
Wang Yongqiang told the police: "I can understand the suspicion of me, but the conflict between me and her only stems from a misunderstanding." ”
On the afternoon of April 9, Wang Yongqiang picked up a bunch of broken bricks with a cart and put them on the side of the road next to the two houses.
Wang Yongqiang. It turned out that Mrs. Wu thought that this pile of bricks was from her house, so she misunderstood that Wang Yongqiang pushed out the bricks and poured them out without authorization.
In this regard, Wang Yongqiang did not come forward to explain, but endured it silently, until the old man scolded more and more ugly, and her wife couldn't help but go out and curse twice.
In fact, because of the brick matter, the two families quarreled a lot, about half a year ago, Wang Yongqiang's family built a house, and accidentally knocked down an old wall of her house after a few bricks, and buried the origin.
Mrs. Wu grasped this question and bit it tightly, no matter how Wang Yongqiang apologized, what she got was always a scolding.
Since then, the relationship between the two families has become tense, but Wang Yongqiang explained: "It is an old man, and he will not be poisoned because of this." ”
** had reservations about his statement, and after understanding this information, the police set their sights on the second one.
Second neighbor: Ma Shicai to the north
Ma Shicai and Mrs. Wu have been at odds for a long time, and it is even more common for the two families to fight, and almost everyone in the village knows about it.
Two years ago, Ma Shicai was also dealt with by the police for injuring Mrs. Wu, but this did not curb the intensification of the conflict between the two families.
The village party secretary told the police that the cause of the quarrel between the two was only because of a tree, and a tree grew on its own in the middle of the two houses.
Mrs. Wu wanted to take it for herself, but Ma Shicai refused to back down, so there were constant conflicts between the two families over the ownership of the tree.
Don't look at the old age, the old man's swearing skills have not regressed at all, Ma Shicai was so angry that he couldn't bear to overthrow the old man to the ground.
Later, the village party secretary came forward to help mediate, and Ma Shicai gave a medical fee, plus the relief given by the village party secretary, and the beating was turned over.
But the strange thing is that the old man did not give up, and whenever he saw a few ugly words coming out of the tree's mouth, this quarrel has continued to this day.
Behind the small contradictions, there may be hidden murderous intentions, and soon the third one became the target of the investigation.
The third neighbor: Ma Liping to the west
Unlike Ma Shicai and Wang Yongqiang, Ma Liping and Mrs. Wu did not have any quarrels, on the contrary, the two got along well.
As long as there are big and small things in the village, Ma Liping will help before and after running, including seeing Mrs. Wu, and will also call grandma affectionately.
Every autumn, he will also help Mrs. Wu harvest the crops, and Ma Liping will also help buy medicine and run errands when she is sick and in pain, his personality is praised by everyone in the village, and his kindness to Mrs. Wu is also obvious to all.
But such a good guy, how could he become the object of suspicion and get involved in this right and wrong?
In fact, this still has to start with an iron rod, ** when I visited the village, I came to Ma Liping's house to investigate.
An attentive policeman looked around his house, only to accidentally spot an iron rod in a pile of debris.
It is not uncommon for every family to have such iron rods, but the strange thing is that Ma Liping's iron rod is stained with a few white hairs.
Mrs. Wu is nearly ninety years old, her hair is already gray, and the wound is on her head, which can't help but suspect that this iron rod may be the murder weapon!
The new discovery made the police excited, and after quietly taking the iron rod, they quickly brought it back to the police station for DNA testing, believing that the truth would be revealed soon.
While waiting for the results, ** found that whether it was a tree or a few bricks, it would become a reason for Mrs. Wu to quarrel, but it was precisely because of these small problems that it was not impossible to become the fuse for murder.
Judging from the situation of Ma Shicai and Wang Yongqiang, they both have a very large motive to commit the crime, so which of the two has more time to commit the crime?
Now, as long as the time of Mrs. Wu's murder is determined, many problems may be solved, so the police once again dispatched to investigate.
Some villagers reported that the last time they saw Mrs. Wu was around 6 p.m. on April 9, and when they asked her if she had eaten, Mrs. Wu replied: "I'll eat a pack of instant noodles later." ”
In her home, she did find an instant noodle bag, and according to her normal schedule, around ten o'clock is the time to go to bed.
In other words, the murder may have been between 10 o'clock at night and 8 o'clock the next morning, what are Ma Shicai in the north and Wang Yongqiang in the east doing during this time?
It is understood that after Wang Yongqiang and Mrs. Wu quarreled, he and his partner came to the construction site in Linyi County overnight in a fit of anger and worked until the next morning.
His companions and boss can prove it to him, but Ma Shicai went out to work with his son two days before the crime, and did not come back for investigation until after the crime.
In this way, it seems that they have no time to commit the crime, and only Ma Liping is the only suspect left, and now he is only waiting for the results of the examination.
The police quietly intensified their investigation of Ma Liping.
At about 7 o'clock in the morning on April 10, when Sister Dong had not yet discovered Mrs. Wu, Ma Liping and three partners from the same village went out to Yantai to work.
Is he really working part-time, or is he evading inspections? **Immediately sent someone to Yantai to carry out squatting monitoring on him.
His every move is under the control of the police, and although he is working hard, it is not difficult to see that he is often absent-minded.
While paying attention to Ma Liping, Ma Liping is also quietly paying attention to the news of his hometown.
Ma Liping's wife once called him, and in addition to the two pulling the family, his wife also mentioned: "Mrs. Wu is dead, it is said that she was killed." ”
Ma Liping trembled and hung up when he heard this, and the fear in his heart was also overflowing.
I don't know if it was out of guilt or fear, but after learning the news of the old lady's death, it didn't take long for him to start taking action.
Early in the morning of April 15, after simply packing a bag on his back, he decided to take a car back to his hometown to find out the real situation.
At the same time, the identification results also came down: "The hair on the iron rod has been tested to be Mrs. Wu's." ”
Let's go! As soon as Ma Liping got into the car, he was arrested by the police who were squatting and escorted back to Linyi for interrogation.
After arriving at the case, he quickly confessed that he had killed Mrs. Wu and confessed to his crime.
What is the reason for that? Let him kill an old and frail man.
Ma Liping's mood couldn't be calmed down for a long time, and after a long time, he said sadly: "This matter is completely drunk and impulsive." ”
Ma Liping. On the evening of April 9, the day of the crime, he drank a little wine while he was in a good mood.
As a result, in the process of chatting with his wife, Ma Liping learned that Mrs. Wu had a quarrel with Wang Yongqiang again, and her original good mood became angry.
Wang Yongqiang, as his brother-in-law, takes good care of him on weekdays, but no matter how good he is to Mrs. Wu, Mrs. Wu always asks for trouble with her brother-in-law regardless of face.
After drinking, a huge wave of unhappiness immediately swelled in his heart, and dissatisfaction and anger kept churning in his chest, and in a fit of anger, he drank some more wine.
Under the influence of alcohol, Ma Liping decided to teach Mrs. Wu a lesson, took out an iron rod casually, and staggered to Mrs. Wu's house.
Once, twice, three times, the defenseless Mrs. Wu fell to the ground, and Ma Liping, who came to her senses, grabbed the door and fled.
Then he was afraid that the matter would be discovered, and the next morning he lied that he was going to work in other places, and hurriedly said goodbye to his wife who was nine months pregnant.
Ma Liping described it very clearly, but is it really that simple? After learning that Ma Liping was arrested, the village party secretary called** and asked as soon as he opened his mouth: "Is it my son?" Are you sure? ”
After getting an accurate answer, he broke down and cried: "I hurt him." ”
What does the village party secretary's words mean?
Yes, Ma Liping is Ma Zhanchang's son, from childhood to adulthood, his son is kind-hearted, and even Mrs. Wu, who has always been at odds with others, can live in harmony with him.
He couldn't believe that ** would be his son, and since Mrs. Wu was killed, Ma Zhanchang, the village party secretary, has been actively helping ** solve the case, but he has never thought about his son.
In the mouth of the village party secretary, ** has a better understanding of the reasons for the occurrence of this case.
In fact, Ma Zhanchang and Mrs. Wu have always been in conflict, as the village party secretary, they often put the older people first, but in exchange for kindness, they are not rewarded.
Since 2010, because of land disputes, Mrs. Wu has often come to theorize, scolding at best, and not leaving.
Because of a trivial matter, unreasonable trouble has become commonplace, and Ma Liping sees it in his eyes, but his father once told him: "In any case, these are all grievances of adults, and children can't participate in it." ”
Ma Liping kept in mind, so he has always been respectful to the elderly, but the seeds of dissatisfaction were still quietly planted in his heart, so that the tragedy that followed.
However, has Mrs. Wu's temper always been like this? The answer given by the villagers was: It was fine when I first got married, but then suddenly there were earth-shaking changes.
It turned out that she gave birth to four daughters, and her husband died early, so she developed a fiery temper in order not to be bullied and shoulder the responsibility of supporting the family.
Unreasonableness also accounts for three points, and everything must be strong, which also leads to the fact that when she gets older, she will be out of control, as long as someone comes against her, she feels that others look down on her and want to bully her.
The villagers stayed away, but the neighbors nearby were miserable, thinking that she was also miserable, most of them let her, but they didn't expect her to kick her nose more and more.
Sensitive, inferior, extreme, and inconspicuous little things are infinitely magnified in Mrs. Wu's eyes, and this tragedy is inseparable from these reasons.
However, it is indeed sad to die in such a way, and Ma Liping, who sees everything in his eyes, did not seek help from **, and took such cruel means to solve the problem, which is also chilling.
A month after the incident, Ma Liping's son landed healthily, and when everyone was happy about the arrival of a new life, they couldn't help but feel sorry for Ma Liping.
In the end, he was criminally detained on suspicion of intentional homicide, and he could only repent in prison for the rest of his life.
This case also reminds people that nothing can be a reason to commit a crime, and when you are impulsive, you must think about your family members and do not solve it in your own way, otherwise you will harm others and yourself, and the gains outweigh the losses.
