What's wrong with this lawyer?!-Chapter 874 - 281: Sending More Than 80 People Inside is Not the Goal

Chapter 874 -281: Sending More Than 80 People Inside is Not the Goal

Zhang Wei sat in front of Old Tang and began speaking, “Director Tang, I feel like I’ve somewhat grasped it. To enforce criminal protection, we first need to precisely understand each crime applicable!”

“Understanding the concept of the crime is not enough; we must also experience it from the legislator’s and judicial body’s perspectives to fully comprehend the crime. Furthermore, it needs to be related to the economic foundation and not just abstractly defined, otherwise one can’t truly master criminal law.”

Zhang Wei spoke eloquently while Old Tang nodded continuously, occasionally offering some guidance.

Wang Qingqing watched from the side, dumbstruck, as the two appeared to discuss something both novel and stringent.

After a session of teaching examination, Old Tang summarized, “You have made significant progress in applying criminal law. Now, you just need to continuously integrate it with practice, and there should be no issues.”

“Another problem with you is that you focus too much on imprisoning people. Always remember our purpose in handling cases: to solve problems. Imprisoning individuals is only to gain leverage!”

“So, you also need to study other aspects thoroughly. We are lawyers, ultimately, we must serve our clients better. Combating crime is a task for the judicial bodies, understand?”

Zhang Wei nodded, “I understand, Director.”

“Off you go, come ask me if there’s anything unclear.”

Zhang Wei got up and left the office, although he really wanted to say that Director Tang himself seemed even more eager to imprison people…

For instance, in this case, Tan was visibly pleased singing a tune when he saw the communications reporting over eighty people arrested.

But he dismissed it, thinking he must strictly adhere to Director Tang’s instructions!

The investigation by the Public Security Authorities had concluded, and the case had entered the review and prosecution stage.

Consequently, Old Tang picked a morning to visit the Procuratorate, finding the prosecutor in charge of the case.

They were old acquaintances having interacted frequently in Jingzhou.

“So Lawyer Tang, you were the one who initially reported the case?” Prosecutor Zhang of Jingzhou City Procuratorate asked with a look of surprise.

Old Tang nodded, “Otherwise, this case wouldn’t get resolved. Prosecutor Zhang, you are in charge of the review and prosecution, and you know how they operate. How could an ordinary person fight against them using regular methods?”

Prosecutor Zhang thought carefully about the records in the dossier, finally shaking his head, “Only if it attracted media attention, otherwise it’s nearly impossible.”

Even if you sued and won, the judgment couldn’t be enforced. After two years, the case file would be archived and it would be extremely difficult to reopen.

Why is it so? The court itself couldn’t find enforcement clues, how could an ordinary person?

Don’t even talk about finding clues; even wanting to check the bank accounts registered under the other party’s name would require hiring a lawyer who must then request the court to issue an Investigation Order to proceed.

This whole process won’t come cheap, the cost is for just one inquiry, unlike the court which has direct access to the control system.

Old Tang shrugged his shoulders, “But public opinion isn’t something we can control. It’s not like going viral online happens immediately just because your matter is urgent, others have urgent matters too, so there was no choice but to proceed this way.”

Hearing this, Prosecutor Zhang laughed, “So you even considered opening a gym as a sting operation, huh? Lawyer Tang, honestly, people like you are really rare these days.”

“So, your plan is to issue a letter of understanding if these people return the money, right?”

“That’s right, of course, the condition is repaying triple the amount. A penny less, and we won’t issue it. If they refuse, I’d rather file an attached civil lawsuit. No one could probably act faster than us.” Lawyer Tang smiled cunningly like an old fox.

The fleeing bosses, professional store close-down artists, and the lawyers caught as accomplices, their involved assets were extensive, certainly a lot, but among so many cases, it obviously wouldn’t seem much.

Through the means of closing down and fleeing, these three years they had accumulated quite the fortune. If these people all came demanding their money back, even just the balances, it clearly wouldn’t be enough. It’s needless to even think about it.

But, those demanding the money back earlier are easier to deal with, not only could they get the money, they could also claim triple the repayment!

It seems quite unfair; everyone got scammed, yet why can you get triple repayment, and we can’t get a penny?

But that actually represents the greatest fairness.

The case was handled by Old Tang from start to finish. He was involved in tracking this case all along, so naturally, he was able to apply to intervene at the first opportunity. The case only reached the Procuratorate yesterday, and he came directly today.

If you follow the news, you would notice that after many telecommunication scam groups are arrested, they hold multiple asset return meetings.

However, reinstating assets has its prerequisites!

Tracing the origins isn’t as many people imagine, checking each transfer one by one, then finding individuals one by one… it’s not that cumbersome.

It’s essential that you report the matter first, and the Public Security Authorities have a record of your report, for example, being defrauded of twenty thousand. The authorities have made a record for you.

Then, after the telecommunication fraud group is caught, if they find evidence related to that twenty thousand, then it’s traceable and you can have it returned directly.

But, this case isn’t quite like ones before. To be precise, this is the first case where professional store closers are recognized as committing unlicensed business operations!

Yes, Jingzhou Intermediate Court already plans to report this upward, and this case might even be included in the annual list of typical cases!
