Chapter 114 Inexhaustible clues (15)
Lu Kai on the other side came over, glanced at Xiao Wu, but shook his head: "It's difficult to establish your hypothesis. There should be very few people who can domestically abuse you."
Xiao Wu rolled his eyes at him.
Li Zhudao said: "You guys born in the 1990s have never experienced poverty, or even seen it very often, so you don't know how terrible poverty is."
"When I first graduated, I interned at the public security bureau of a poor county and encountered a case."
"A peasant woman in the county accidentally sprinkled pesticides on flour at home, but was reluctant to throw away the flour. The peasant woman carefully removed the top flour stained with pesticides and used the remaining good flour to make steamed buns. After eating the steamed buns, the whole family went inside
Went to the hospital and my husband died."
"After the peasant woman cried, she thought that steamed buns were dangerous because they used a lot of flour. She should be fine if she made dumplings and ate them. After eating the dumplings, the whole family went to the hospital again and her daughter died. The peasant woman did not dare to eat the flour anymore, so she took it away
Feed the cows, and the cows will die."
"The neighbor always saw people and cattle dead one after another at her house, so he called the police. After investigation, he found out what happened."
Xiao Wu's eyes widened, obviously not believing it: "Captain Li, you made it up, right?"
Li Zhudao spread his hands: "You see, this is that wealth limits your imagination. As ordinary people, we cannot understand the lives and behaviors of super rich people; super rich people cannot understand the lives and behaviors of ordinary people. By the same token, ordinary people
It’s also impossible to understand the behavior of these people living below the poverty line.”
Lu Kai suddenly said: "This fully proves one thing..."
Li Zhudao and Xiao Wu looked at him, thinking he was going to say something big.
"The quality of pesticides back then was much better than now."
Lu Kai reminded them of Xiao Wang many times when he spoke.
Seeing that their faces were expressionless but their eyes were staring at him strangely, Lu Kai coughed and relieved himself from the embarrassment, and continued: "I'm not questioning the authenticity of the case that Captain Li said, something like that
The forensic doctors in our bureau have also encountered this case, and they always use it to teach us that we must work hard, be diligent and frugal..."
According to Lu Kai, the forensic doctor's name is Yu Dewang.
More than ten years ago, Yu Dewang received a call from the local police station in an impoverished mountainous area, saying that a poisoning case occurred in their jurisdiction: a family was poisoned, the hostess died, and the son was being rescued, and the suspect turned out to be the hostess's biological daughter.
Yu Dewang and his party met the suspect at the police station, the daughter of the deceased, a thin and small woman.
The suspect looked numb and sat in the interrogation room. He only spoke one or two simple sentences when asked any questions. It was unclear whether he was worried or happy. It seemed that her mother's death and her brother's resuscitation in the hospital had nothing to do with her.
Soon, Yu Dewang and others learned the basic facts of the case: the deceased was in his 60s and the hostess of the family; the poisoning rescuer was 40 years old and the son of the deceased; the suspect was in his 30s and the daughter of the deceased.
That morning, the suspect brought sacrificial meat to the deceased's house. Because that day was the anniversary of her father's death. The suspect made breakfast and cooked white meat. The family planned to pay homage to her father's grave at noon. They cooked a pot of white rice porridge.
Stir-fry some simple vegetables and stir them together, and that's breakfast.
The suspect's mother and brother were having breakfast. Halfway through the meal, the mother started vomiting and then fell into a coma. The brother was at a loss and went to find an uncle from a family in the same village.
My daughter didn't have breakfast.
After the uncle arrived at his house, he thought that the mother had a sudden illness and needed to be sent to the hospital. The uncle drove the deceased, his daughter, and his son to the village clinic in his family's tricycle.
The rural doctor at the clinic determined within a short period of time that this was not a disease, but poisoning, and he needed to be sent to a major hospital immediately.
At this critical moment, the deceased's son disappeared. After searching, he found that his son had fallen on the tricycle and was unconscious.
Two members of the family were poisoned and fell into coma. Now only the daughter of the deceased can make the decision. The daughter said that her mother and brother were just ordinary physical discomforts and were not poisoned at all. They did not need treatment and they could just go home and rest.
At that time, both the uncle and the doctor were confused. Their lives were at stake, so they went home to rest for a while.
Will the patient be cured immediately? The uncle decided that he must go to a big hospital. When the uncle and the doctor sent the patient to the big hospital, the daughter of the deceased actually left first on the pretext that there was something going on at her late husband's family.
As mentioned before, the rescue result was that the hostess died and her son was being rescued.
Two people were poisoned in a row, but their daughter, who was their closest relative, reacted strangely. The village doctor thought the matter was strange and called the police.
The police from the police station immediately went to find the deceased's daughter and found that she had not returned to her husband's house at all. Instead, she was feeding chickens at the deceased's house as if nothing had happened. They took her to the police station.
The case is very simple. There is no doubt that the daughter of the deceased is the most suspicious, for five reasons: the daughter made breakfast; only the daughter did not eat breakfast; she was unwilling to rescue her mother and brother after discovering they were poisoned, which is also the most suspicious; from a criminal psychology perspective
Poisoning cases are mostly committed by women, because women's physical strength is much weaker than men, and they often use indirect methods such as poisoning to commit crimes; the daughter has a long-term bad relationship with her mother and brother, and she has a motive for committing the crime.
The last reason needs to be explained.
Many years ago, my daughter fell in love with a man from out of town while she was working outside, and they soon came to the point of discussing marriage. As young people, the two fell in love with each other.
But the daughter's parents did not agree to the marriage because their son was not married yet.
In rural areas, especially poor rural areas, it is very difficult for men to marry. On the one hand, they cannot afford high betrothal gifts, and on the other hand, there are simply no girls willing to marry in such poor places.
If a man wants to get married, a common method is for his parents to accept a high betrothal gift to marry off their own daughter, and then use the money from the daughter's marriage to find a wife for their son.
So the mother lied that her father was seriously ill, deceived her daughter back from out of town, put her under house arrest, and forced her to marry a man who was more than ten years older than her because they had received a bride price from this man.
After understanding the case and considering that it was getting late, Yu Dewang and his party were divided into two groups. One group went to the hospital to understand the situation, and the other group went to the deceased's home.
There is still some distance from the police station to the deceased's home, and it is all a mountain road. Fortunately, there is a small road, and the police car can drive directly to the village. Because some kind of minerals were discovered in the mountains near the village, the mining company built a small road into the village.
Only then can villagers have the opportunity to understand the outside world.
The deceased's home was halfway up the mountainside. It was a rammed-earth house with three huts, two large and one small, without walls. The two big huts were two bedrooms respectively, and the hut was the kitchen.
In poisoning cases, on-site investigation is very important because it is difficult to obtain evidence in such cases. Without knowing the composition and source of the poison, the only way to collect test materials is from a large area at the crime scene.
Samples must be taken of the water source consumed by the deceased, the rice, noodles and seasonings at home, the breakfast eaten by the deceased, vomitus, objects that may have come into contact, and even the air in the house.
After briefly viewing the scene, they discovered new doubts. The most important physical evidence was that the breakfast eaten by the deceased was missing, and the pot had been cleaned and there was no leftover food at all.
This is so strange. According to the suspect's account: the deceased developed symptoms of poisoning when he was halfway through breakfast, and then rescued him. In other words, there should be leftovers.
At this time, they thought that when the police from the police station found the suspect, she was feeding chickens.
Feed the chicken! Where is the chicken?
After a careful search, more than ten chickens were found behind a house, but they were all dead.
This discovery was very detrimental to the suspect. Because she refused to send her mother to the hospital, she made excuses to go home just to destroy the evidence. She cleaned up the poisoned leftovers and fed them to the chickens. As a result, the chickens were also poisoned to death.
All signs point to the deceased's daughter being the murderer, but the most direct evidence is lacking, that is, the source of the poison and the method of poisoning. This evidence can only rely on the suspect's confession.
The next morning, they received a call from the person in charge of the team that went to the hospital: If nothing else, the case was solved.
Did the suspect confess?
No, the suspect's brother was saved. This case was probably an accident.
After the suspect's brother was revived, he learned through the police that his mother had been poisoned and died. He immediately thought that it might be a salt problem.
He recounted: Two days ago he went shopping on the streets of the village and passed by the mining company.
Si Shi saw a brown bottle in the rubbish pile next to him, with a certain salt written on it. When he opened the bottle, it turned out to be fine white salt. He tasted it with his fingers and found it was salty.
Although he also suspected that there was something wrong with the salt, he was lucky and was looking for a small advantage. He poured the bottle of salt into his own salt shaker and discarded the bottle to the river not far from home. Read Shula
According to the suspect's brother's account, the brown bottle was indeed found by the river, with the words "Nitrite" written on it.
What is nitrite? It is highly poisonous. It looks like table salt, with white particles, and tastes salty.
The most common one is sodium nitrite, which is used as a food preservative and laboratory reagent.
After investigation, it was found that this bottle of nitrite came from the mining company's laboratory.
A mining company randomly discarded highly toxic drugs, but they were picked up by a poor semi-literate man. He only knew the word "salt" on the bottle. He took it home and used it as table salt. He poisoned his own mother and almost died himself.
My sister is behind bars.
The case has been investigated clearly at this point. But since the deceased’s daughter is not the murderer, how should we explain her various abnormal behaviors?
The answers are simple.
The daughter cooked but did not eat because her family status was humble, whether in her husband's family or her natal family. According to custom, she could only eat after her mother and brother had finished eating.
When she learned that her mother and brother were poisoned, she did not want to go to a big hospital because in her world there was no option to go to a big hospital. She would just survive the illness. Now that her mother and brother have suddenly become ill, her husband must not be reliable.
