胡法官雅文閣下:
2012年,我第一次站在法庭上承認違反「公安惡法」,述說對普選的盼望,批評公安惡法不義,並因公民抗命的緣故,甘心樂意接受刑罰。當年我說,如果小圈子選舉沒有被廢除,惡法沒有消失,我依然會一如故我,公民抗命,並且我相信將會有更多學生和市民加入這個行列。想不到時至今日,普選仍然遙遙無期,我亦再次被帶到法庭接受審判,但只是短短7年,已經有數十萬計的群眾公民抗命,反對暴政。今日,我承認違反「未經批准的政府」所訂立「未經批准的惡法」之下的「未經批准集結」罪,我不打算尋求法庭的憐憫,但請容許我佔用法庭些微時間陳情,讓法庭在判刑前有全面考慮。
暴力之濫觴
在整個反修例運動如火如荼之際,我正承擔另一宗公民抗命案件的刑責。雖然身在獄中,但仍然心繫手足。我在獄中電視機前見證6月9日、6月16日及8月18日三次百萬港人大遊行,幾多熱愛和平的港人冒天雨冒彈雨走上街頭,抗議不義惡法,今日關於10月20日的案件,亦是如此。可能有人會問,政府已在6月暫緩修例,更在9月正式撤回修例,我等仍然繼續示威,豈非無理取鬧?我相信法官閣下肯定聽過「遲來的正義並非正義」(Justice delayed is justice denied)這句格言。當過百萬群眾走上街頭,和平表達不滿的時候,林鄭政府沒有理睬,反而獨行獨斷,粗暴踐踏港人的意願,結果製造出後來連綿不絕的爭拗,甚至你死我活的對抗。經歷眾多衝突痛苦之後,所謂暫緩撤回,已經微不足道,我們只是更加清楚:沒有民主,就連基本人權都不會擁有!
在本案之中,雖然我們都沒有鼓動或作出暴力行為,但根據早前8‧18及10‧1兩宗案件,相信在控方及法庭眼中,案發當日的暴力事件仍然可以算在我們頭上,如此,我有必要問:如果香港有一個公平正義的普及選舉,人民可以在立法會直接否決他們不認可的法律,試問2019年的暴力衝突可以從何而來呢?如果我們眼見的暴力是如此十惡不赦,那麼我們又如何看待百萬人遊行後仍然堅持推行惡法的制度暴力呢?如果我們不能接受人民暴力反抗,那麼我們是否更加不能對更巨大更壓逼的制度暴力沈默不言?真正且經常發生的暴力,是漠視人民訴求的暴力,是踐踏人民意見的暴力,是剝奪人民表達權利的暴力。真正憎恨暴力,痛恨暴力的人,不可能一方面指摘暴力反抗,又容忍制度暴力。如果我需要承擔和平遊行引發出來的暴力事件的刑責,那麼誰應該承擔施政失敗所引發出來的社會騷亂的罪責呢?
社會之病根
對於法庭而言,可能2019年所發生的事情只是一場社會騷亂,務必追究違法者個人責任。然而,治亂治其本源,醫病醫其病根,我雖然公民抗命,刻意違法,控方把我帶上法庭,但我卻不應被理解為一個「犯罪個體」。2019年所發生的事情,並不是我一個人或我們這幾位被告可以促成,社會問題的癥結不是「犯罪份子」本身,而是「犯罪原因」。我明白「治亂世用重典」的道理,但如果「殺雞儆猴」是解決方法,就不會在2016年發生旺角騷亂及2017年上訴庭對示威者施以重刑後,2019年仍然會爆發出更大規模的暴力反抗。
如果不希望社會動亂,就必須正本清源,逐步落實「五大訴求」,從根本上改革,挽回民心。2019年反修例運動,其實只是2014年雨傘運動的延續而已,縱使法庭可能認為兩個運動皆是「一股歪風」所引起,但我必須澄清,兩個運動的核心就是追求民主普選,人民當家作主。在2019年11月24日區議會選舉這個最類近全民普選的選舉中,接近300萬人投票,民主派大勝,奪得17個區議會主導權,這就是整個反修例運動的民意,民意就是反對政府決策,反對制度暴力,反對推行惡法,不容爭辯,不辯自明。我們作為礦場裡的金絲雀,多次提醒政府撤回修法,並從根本上改革制度,而在10月20日的九龍遊行當然是反映民意的平台契機。如今,法庭對我們施加重刑,其實只不過是懲罰民意,將金絲雀困在鳥籠之內,甚至扼殺於鼓掌之中,窒礙表達自由。
堅持之重要
大運動過後的大鎮壓,使我們失去《蘋果日報》,失去教協,失去民陣,不少民主派領袖以及曾為運動付出的手足戰友都囚於獄中,不少曾經熱情投入運動的朋友亦因《國安法》的威脅轉為低調,新聞自由示威自由日漸萎縮,公民社會受到沈重打擊,我亦失去不少摯友,有感傷孤獨的時候,但我仍然相信,2019年香港人的信念,以及所展現人類的光輝持久未變。我不會忘記百萬人民冒雨捱熱抗拒暴政,抵制惡法,展現我們眾志成城;我不會忘記人潮紅海,讓道救護車,展現我們文明精神;我不會忘記年青志士直接行動反對苛政,捨身成仁,展現我們膽色勇氣;我不會忘記銀髮一族走上街頭保護年青人,展現我們彼此關懷;我不會忘記「五大訴求」,不會忘記2019年區議會選舉,展現我們有理有節。
法官閣下,我對於當日的所作所為,不感羞恥,毫無悔意。我能夠在出獄後與群眾同行一路,與戰友同繫一獄,實是莫大榮幸。若法治失去民主基石,將使法庭無奈地接受專制政權所訂立解釋的法律限制,隨時變成政治工具掃除異見,因此爭取民主普選,建設真正法治,追求公平正義,仍然是我的理想。在這條路上,如有必要,我仍然會公民抗命,正如終審法院海外非常任法官賀輔明(Lord Hoffmann)所言,發自良知的公民抗命有悠久及光榮的傳統,歷史將證明我們是正確的。我期望,曾與我一起遊行抗命的手足戰友要堅持信念,在艱難歲月裡毋忘初衷,活在愛和真實之中。
最後,如9年前一樣,我想借用美國民權領袖馬丁路德金牧師的一番話對我們的反對者說:「我們將以自己忍受苦難的能力,來較量你們製造苦難的能力。我們將用我們靈魂的力量,來抵禦你們物質的暴力。對我們做你們想做的事吧,我們仍然愛你們。我們不能憑良心服從你們不公正的法律,因為拒惡與為善一樣是道德責任。將我們送入監獄吧,我們仍然愛你們。」(We shall match your capacity to inflict suffering by our capacity to endure suffering. We shall meet your physical force with soul force. Do to us what you will, and we shall continue to love you. We cannot in all good conscience obey your unjust laws because noncooperation with evil is as much a moral obligation as is cooperation with good. Throw us in jail and we shall still love you.)
願慈愛的主耶穌賜我們平安,與我和我一家同在,與法官閣下同在,與香港人同在。沒有暴徒,只有暴政;五大訴求,缺一不可!願榮耀歸上帝,榮光歸人民!

Lest we forget the five demands: civil disobedience is morally justified
- Statement on 10‧20 Kowloon Rally
(Case No.: DCCC 535/2020)
Your Honour Judge Woodcock
In 2012, I stood before the court and admitted to violating the "Public Security Evil Law". I expressed my hope for universal suffrage, criticized the evil law as unjust, and willingly accepted the penalty for civil disobedience. Back then, I said that if the small-circle election had not been abolished and the draconian law had not disappeared, I would still be as determined as I was, and I believe that more students and citizens would join this movement. Today, universal suffrage is still a long way off, and I have been brought before the court again for trial. But in just seven years, hundreds of thousands of people have already risen up in civil disobedience against tyranny. Today, I plead guilty to "unauthorised assembly" under an unapproved evil law enacted by an unauthorised government. I do not intend to seek the court's mercy, but please allow me to take up a little time in court to present my case so that the court can consider all aspects before sentencing me.
The roots of violence
At the time when the whole anti-extradition law movement was in full-swing, I was taking responsibility for another civil disobedience case. Although I was in prison, my heart was still with the people. I witnessed the three million-person rallies on 9 June, 16 June and 18 August on television in prison, when many peace-loving people took to the streets despite the rain and bullets, to protest against unjust laws. Some people may ask, "The Government has already suspended the legislative amendments in June and formally withdrew the bill in September, but we are still demonstrating, are we not being unreasonable?" I am sure your Honour has heard of the adage "Justice delayed is justice denied". When more than a million people took to the streets to express their discontent peacefully, the Lam administration ignored them and instead acted arbitrarily, brutally trampling on the wishes of the people of Hong Kong, resulting in endless arguments and even confrontations. After so many conflicts and painful experiences, the so-called moratorium is no longer meaningful. We only know better: without democracy, we cannot even have basic human rights!
In this case, although we did not instigate or commit acts of violence, I believe that in the eyes of the prosecution and the court, the violence on the day of the incident can still be counted against us, based on the August 18 and October 1 case. And now I must ask - If Hong Kong had a fair and just universal election, and the public could directly veto laws they did not approve of at the Legislative Council, then how could the violent clashes of 2019 have come about? If the violence we see is so heinous, how do we feel about the institutional violence that insists on the imposition of draconian laws even after millions of people have taken to the streets? If we cannot accept violent rebellion, how can we remain silent in the face of even greater and more oppressive institutional violence? The true and frequent violence is the kind of violence that ignores people's demands, that tramples on their opinions, that deprives them of their right to express themselves. People who truly hate violence and abhor it cannot accuse violent resistance on the one hand and tolerate institutional violence on the other. If I have to bear the criminal responsibility for the violence caused by the peaceful demonstration, then who should bear the criminal responsibility for the social unrest caused by failed administration?
The roots of society's problems
From a court's point of view, it may be that what happened in 2019 was just a series of social unrest, and that those who broke the law must be held personally accountable. What happened in 2019 was not something that I alone or the defendants could have made possible, and the crux of the social problem was not the 'criminals' but the 'causes of crime'. I understand the concept of " applying severe punishment to a troubled world", but if "decimation" was really the solution, there would not have been more violent rebellions in 2019 after the Mongkok "riot" in 2016 and the heavy sentences handed down to protesters by the Court of Appeal in 2017.
If we do not want social unrest, we must get to the root of the problem and implement the "five demands" step by step, so as to achieve fundamental reforms and win back the hearts of the people. 2019's anti-revision movement is indeed a continuation of 2014's Umbrella Movement, and even though the court may think that both movements are caused by a "perverse wind", I must clarify that the core of both movements is the pursuit of democracy and universal suffrage, and the people being the masters of their own house. In the District Council election on 24 November 2019, which is the closest thing to universal suffrage, nearly 3 million people voted, and the democratic camp won a huge victory, winning majority in 17 District Councils. As canaries in the monetary coal mine, we have repeatedly reminded the government to withdraw the extradition bill and fundamentally reform the system, and the march in Kowloon on 20 October was certainly an opportunity to reflect public opinion. Now, by imposing heavy penalties on us, the court is only punishing public opinion, trapping the canaries in a birdcage, or even stifling them in the palm of their hands, suffocating the freedom of expression.
The importance of persistence
As a result of the crackdown after the mass movement, we lost Apple Daily, the Hong Kong Professional Teachers' Union, and the Civil Human Rights Front. Many of our democratic leaders and comrades who had contributed to the movement were imprisoned, and many of our friends who had been passionately involved in the movement had been forced to lay low under the threat of the National Security Law. I still believe that the faith of Hong Kong people and the glory of humanity seen in 2019 will remain unchanged. I will never forget the millions of people who braved the rain and the heat to resist tyranny and evil laws, demonstrating our unity of purpose; I will never forget the crowds of people who gave way to ambulances, demonstrating our civility; I will never forget the young people who sacrificed their lives, demonstrating our courage and bravery; I will never forget the silver-haired who took to the streets to protect the youth, demonstrating our care for each other; I will never forget the "five demands" and the 2019 District Council election, demonstrating our rationality and decency.
Your Honour, I have nothing to be ashamed of and no remorse for what I did on that day. It is my great honour to be in prison with my comrades and to be able to walk with the public after my release. If the rule of law were to lose its democratic foundation, the courts would have no choice but to accept the legal restrictions set by the autocratic regime and become a political tool to eliminate dissent at any time. As Lord Hoffmann, a non-permanent overseas judge of the Court of Final Appeal, said, civil disobedience from the conscience has a long and honourable tradition, and history will prove us right. I hope that my comrades in arms who walked with me in protests will keep their faith and live in love and truth in the midst of this difficult time.
Finally, as I did nine years ago, I would like to say something to those who oppose us, borrowing the words of American civil rights leader Reverend Martin Luther King: "We shall match your capacity to inflict suffering by our capacity to endure suffering. We shall meet your physical force with soul force. Do to us what you will, and we shall continue to love you. We cannot in all good conscience obey your unjust laws because noncooperation with evil is as much a moral obligation as is cooperation with good. Throw us in jail and we shall still love you."
Peace be with me and my family, with Your Honour, and with the people of Hong Kong. There are no thugs, only tyranny; five demands, not one less! To god be the glory and to people be the glory!

(Xin xem bản dịch tiếng Việt sau phần tiếng Anh).
Ladies and gentlemen,
First, I would like to express my sincere thanks to Amnesty International. Without your relentless advocacy I wouldn’t be here today. My freedom is live testament of Amnesty International's efforts and support for human rights in Vietnam. On behalf of all my fellow human rights defenders back home, I’d like to thank Amnesty International and other international human rights organizations who have stood with us in our times of need.
Dear friends,
Perhaps for many years of fighting for human rights, you don't see how all your efforts will change the future of others. Today, with my own personal experience, I hope you will be more motivated when you see firsthand the results you bring.
This is my story, in November 2018, when I took my daughter to attend the Press Freedom Awards ceremony of the Committee to Protect Journalist in New York where I was one of the award recipients. That trip changed the mind and dream of a 12-year-old child.
Before leaving Vietnam, my daughter, Mushroom, was in a nervous state when interacting with others because her mother was arrested by the police, and considered by the government to be a reactionary element, against the country. When I was at the ceremony, my daughter, witnessing the warm regard the American guests had for her mother, she asked me: “Why was our family treated like criminals by the police? Why did they arrest you, mom? And how come strangers in this free country acknowledged you for what you did so warmly like this?” From what she witnessed in this free world, my daughter wrote a diary and shared with her friends in Vietnam about her newly-found pride for her mother, and for those who fight for human rights in Vietnam. She now believes in a society in which human rights are protected and respected.
As you can see, your efforts, the recognition that you give to international human rights defenders, have not only brought me my own freedom but helped a child to overcome her feelings of guilt and shame, and come to understand and feel proud of what their parents have been fighting for. They begin to appreciate the price of freedom and the sacrifices that their families had to endure.
Amnesty International's human rights campaigns, your advocacy, and your stance with us are not only attempts to fight for human rights, but they also contribute to building faith in a better future for all the children of activists in Vietnam.
I would like to take this opportunity to especially express my deep gratitude to a mother. She is also a member of Amnesty International in Sweden, Ms. Britis Edman. She is a close friend who has always been concerned and made efforts to support the struggle for human rights in Vietnam all these years. With the encouragement from Britis and all of you, I know that I have never been alone on the road to fight for human rights in Vietnam.
Ladies and gentlemen, staff and members of Amnesty International,
When I was released, I realized that after I had been arrested, many other people were also imprisoned for very heavy sentences. Many of them were arrested without anyone noticing.
Among of them is Mr. Huynh Truong Ca, a Facebooker named "The Peasant". He was sentenced to 5 years and 6 months in prison for openly expressing his opinion. His daughter, Huynh Thi Thai Ngan, sent an appeal to Amnesty International asking to intervene for her father who is being abused in prison. I would like to take this opportunity to thank you all, on behalf of his daughter for your support and concerns for her father, Mr. Huynh Truong Ca and his struggle for freedom.
Life in prison is an endless series of difficult days, suffering from physical and mental abuse, being separated from the outside world, facing difficulties at every family visit …. These are some of the predicament that political prisoners in Vietnam have to face. The Amnesty International's monitoring and advocacy over the years that have made the world more aware of the terrible state of prisons and human rights violations in Vietnam.
I want you to know that your voice has provided the protection Vietnamese detainees need the most and have made the communist authorities to be more or less afraid to face Amnesty International’s reports and questions.
In addition, I would like you to know that the effort to fight for freedom for those who have been imprisoned also has a positive effect on those who are active and not yet arrested. It has given them the necessary assurance that the world is always watching and concerned for them and they will not be abandoned if imprisoned.
So I hope you continue to care, speak up and fight for political prisoners in Vietnam and around the world. Please urge the US government and other international human rights organizations to increase political and economic pressure on Hanoi to comply with the international convention that Vietnam is a signatory on the treatment of prisoners and to have an independent monitoring system to monitor the situation in prisons.
Ladies and gentlemen,
I know that every hour of every day, there are many human rights violations happening around the world and Vietnam is a country of concern. From my story, I hope you know that what you are doing is not only to improve the human rights situation in our country but also to bring happiness, pride and confidence in a better future for the children of Vietnam; specifically for my daughter. We know the world is looking into our hell-hole that we call homeland, and we know we are not forgotten.
Thank you so much!
Bản dịch tiếng Việt:
Xin kính chào tất cả quý vị,
Tôi xin gửi lời cám ơn chân thành đến Tổ chức Ân xá Quốc Tế đã miệt mài tranh đấu cho tự do của tôi ngày hôm nay. Tự do của tôi, của nhiều người bất đồng chính kiến khác tại Việt Nam là kết quả của những nỗ lực tranh đấu cho quyền con người của Tổ chức Ân Xá quốc tế nói riêng và tất cả đồng bào người Việt cũng như các tổ chức nhân quyền quốc tế khác trên toàn thế giới nói chung.
Kính thưa quý vị,
Có thể trong nhiều năm tháng tranh đấu cho quyền con người, quý vị không thấy hết những nỗ lực của mình sẽ thay đổi tương lai của những người khác ra sao. Hôm nay, với câu chuyện của chính cá nhân tôi, tôi tin rằng quý vị sẽ có thêm động lực vì kết quả mà quý vị mang lại.
Đó là, vào tháng 11 năm 2018, khi tôi đưa con gái tôi cùng đến tham dự lễ trao giải Tự do báo chí của Ủy ban Bảo vệ Ký giả tại New York. Chuyến đi đó đã thay đổi suy nghĩ và ước mơ của một đứa trẻ 12 tuổi.
Trước khi rời Việt Nam, con gái tôi, bé Nấm, sống trong tâm trạng e dè khi tiếp xúc với người khác vì mẹ mình bị công an bắt, bị chính phủ cho là kẻ phản động, chống lại tổ quốc. Khi có mặt tại buổi lễ, chứng kiến những cảm tình mà quan khách Hoa Kỳ dành cho mẹ mình, con tôi đã hỏi: "Tại sao khi ở Việt Nam, nhà mình bị công an ngăn chặn, mẹ bị bắt, mà đi ra nước ngoài, mọi người lại ghi nhận như vậy?". Từ những gì được chứng kiến trong một thế giới tự do, con gái tôi đã viết nhật ký và chia sẻ với bạn bè ở Việt Nam về sự hãnh diện của mình đối với mẹ, đối với những người tranh đấu cho nhân quyền tại Việt Nam và niềm tin vào một xã hội trong đó quyền con người được bảo vệ và tôn trọng.
Quý vị có thể thấy đó, nỗ lực của quý vị, sự ghi nhận của các tổ chức bảo vệ nhân quyền quốc tế không những đã đem lại tự do cho riêng tôi mà đã giúp một đứa trẻ thay vì sống trong sự mặc cảm thì nay đã hiểu và hãnh diện hơn về những gì cha mẹ mình đã làm, hiểu rõ thế nào là tự do và hãnh diện về cái giá mà gia đình phải trả.
Các chiến dịch nhân quyền, sự lên tiếng, đồng hành của Tổ chức Ân xá Quốc tế không chỉ là nỗ lực tranh đấu cho quyền con người mà nó còn góp phần xây dựng niềm tin vào một tương lai tốt đẹp cho những đứa trẻ là con cái của các nhà hoạt động tại Việt Nam.
Nhân dịp này, tôi xin được gửi lời cám ơn sâu sắc đến một người mẹ, một thành viên của Tổ chức Ân xá Quốc tế là bà Britis Edman. Bà là người bạn thân thiết đã luôn quan tâm và có những nỗ lực hỗ trợ công cuộc tranh đấu cho nhân quyền tại Việt Nam trong nhiều năm qua. Với sự động viên và khích lệ từ bà Britis và quý vị, tôi biết rằng tôi không hề cô đơn trên con đường tranh đấu cho nhân quyền Việt Nam.
Kính thưa quý vị đang làm việc tại Tổ chức Ân xá Quốc tế,
Khi tôi được tự do, tôi mới biết rằng sau khi tôi bị bắt đã có rất nhiều người khác cũng bị kết án, bị tống giam với những bản án rất nặng nề. Nhiều người trong số họ đã bị bắt mà không ai hay biết.
Trong số đó là ông Huỳnh Trương Ca tức Facebooker "Thằng Nhà Quê";. Ông bị kết án 5 năm 6 tháng tù vì đã công khai bày tỏ chính kiến một cách ôn hòa. Con gái của ông là Huỳnh Thị Thái Ngân đã gửi lời kêu cứu Tổ chức Ân xá Quốc tế lên tiếng cho cha của em đang bị ngược đãi trong tù. Nhân dịp này tôi xin chuyển lời cám ơn của em Ngân đến với quý vị đã quan tâm và hỗ trợ tranh đấu cho tự do của ông Huỳnh Trương Ca.
Cuộc sống trong trại giam, là những chuỗi ngày khó khăn, bị ngược đãi tinh thần, bị chia cắt với thế giới bên ngoài, bị gây khó khăn trong những chuyến thăm gặp của gia đình... là những điều mà những tù nhân chính trị tại Việt Nam phải đối diện. Chính sự theo dõi, lên tiếng của Tổ chức Ân xá Quốc tế trong nhiều năm qua đã làm cho thế giới biết rõ hơn về tình trạng tệ hại của nhà tù tại Việt Nam. Tôi muốn quý vị biết rằng, tiếng nói của quý vị đã bảo vệ được an toàn tối thiểu cho những người bị giam cầm và nhà cầm quyền cộng sản Việt Nam ít nhiều phải e dè khi đối diện với những báo cáo và các chất vấn của quý vị.
Tôi cũng muốn quý vị biết rằng nỗ lực tranh đấu cho tự do đối với những người đã bị giam cầm còn có một ảnh hưởng tích cực lên những người đang hoạt động và chưa bị bắt. Nó đã trao cho họ niềm tin rằng thế giới luôn theo dõi và quan tâm đến họ và họ sẽ không bị bỏ rơi nếu bị giam cầm.
Vì vậy tôi mong rằng quý vị hãy tiếp tục quan tâm, lên tiếng và tranh đấu cho những tù nhân chính trị tại Việt Nam. Hãy yêu cầu chính phủ Hoa Kỳ và các tổ chức Nhân quyền quốc tế gia tăng áp lực Hà Nội phải tuân thủ các công ước quốc tế về cấm ngược đãi tù nhân và phải có một hệ thống giám sát độc lập để theo dõi tình trạng trong các trại giam.
Kính thưa quý vị,
Tôi biết mỗi giờ, mỗi ngày trôi qua có rất nhiều trường hợp vi phạm nhân quyền xảy ra trên toàn thế giới và Việt Nam là một quốc gia được quý vị quan tâm. Với câu chuyện của mình, tôi mong quý vị biết rằng những gì quý vị đang làm không chỉ để cải thiện tình hình nhân quyền mà còn đem lại niềm hạnh phúc, tự hào và niềm tin vào tương lai cho nhiều đứa trẻ tại Việt Nam, cụ thể là con gái của tôi. Chúng tôi biết thế giới đang nhìn vào địa ngục của chúng tôi. Và chúng tôi biết mình không bị bỏ quên.
Trước đó, vào ngày 07.11.2019 blogger Mẹ Nấm đã đại diện cho Mạng Lưới Blogger Việt Nam và Danlambao đã đến Washington D.C., cùng với 4 chứng nhân khác từ các quốc gia Ba Lan, Cuba, Venezuela, và Bắc Hàn, để trình bày trực tiếp với TT Trump về những kinh nghiệm hãi hùng mà họ đã từng trải qua dưới sự thống trị dã man của xã hội chủ nghĩa. Trong dịp này, Nguyễn Ngọc Như Quỳnh cũng đã trao 1 danh sách tên các tù nhân lương tâm trong đó có Hồ Đức Hoà, Trần Huỳnh Duy Thức... cho văn phòng Bộ Ngoại giao Hoa Kỳ để vận động tự do cho những tù nhân khác tại Việt Nam.

november criminals 在 謙預 Qianyu.sg Facebook 的最佳貼文
《和屍體說話的人》
Do you believe in past life, and its strong invisible influence over your present life?
He was the Sherlocks Holmes of Taiwan.
The modern day Justice Pao (現代包青天), known to bring justice to murdered victims.
楊青天大人, he was nicknamed by his countrymen.
I had never heard of 楊日松博士, Dr Yang Jih-sung.
Till I read the story written by my Grandmaster, Living Buddha Lian-Sheng, which I posted two days ago.
That was donkey years back.
In my decade long of mastering Chinese Metaphysics, I have amassed hundreds, if not thousands, of Bazi in my crumpled dog-eared notebooks.
One continuous homework that I have been doing since 2006, is to study the Bazi, faces, bodies and lives of not just famous people, people featured in the newspapers (hit-and-run victims, suicide victims, criminals, scholars, helpful people etc.) but as well as people around me.
Shifu said, the more we study, the better and faster we get at dissecting a person's Bazi and people reading.
The goal is to train our eyes and brain so well that we can see a person naked (figuratively, of course) within one split second.
And when a person walks past, without turning our heads to look, we must be able to tell Shifu the current financial state and luck of the person. #aurareading
Such training was very strenuous in the beginning. When I didn't pass the impromptu tests given by Shifu, I was meted harsh punishment and disallowed further learning, till I passed with flying colours.
.
I got curious about Dr Yang about a month ago. He had a very fascinating career history.
What does he have in his Bazi, that determines him to be a righteous and dedicated forensic expert with such top-notch crime-solving skills?
What had he done to be bestowed the divine title of 城隍爺 (City God), after his death?
I read that he allegedly handled more than 30,000 bodies over the course of his 62-year career. I took out my calculator. That worked out to 484 bodies every year. 40.3 bodies every month, which is about 1.34 bodies every day.
While all his classmates went off to become doctors, Dr Yang was the only one from his class to take up forensics. It was a decision he made after his brother was forcefully coerced into a confession by the Japanese that he was a spy and wrongfully jailed, and another friend was unfairly charged of being a thief.
Dr Yang learnt early in his life, that eye witnesses were insufficient to solve a case. There was a pressing need for strong scientific evidence.
What caught my eye about Dr Yang was his utmost respect to the dead bodies.
He would always take a bow to the victim before starting work on the dead body.
Through the decades, he had never wore any protective gear like masks and gloves during autopsies.
In his biography:
"A forensic expert’s job is more than just studying and dissecting the bodies. If necessary, we need to taste the contents of their stomachs and determine the time of death from the acidity. We can also tell from the bitterness whether there was poisoning involved.”
He cites a case where three charred bodies were brought in from the same incident.
“They smelled the same, so I could tell that they were burned at the same time. If I wore a mask, I would not be able to observe this subtle detail,” he says. “And, I believe that wearing a mask is disrespectful toward the deceased.”
Finally, he explains that he “cannot feel the elasticity of the skin” if he has gloves on.
.
I don't know if you have ever smelt a corpse. But it is known to be extremely foul.
Especially when the bodies have been thrown into the sea, or buried deep in the soil, before digging out much later.
Dr Yang never feared infection by the bacteria in the corpses.
Those were the days when CSI kind of science did not exist.

楊日松法醫:「你沒有良心,做不了。」
Dr Yang solved his first case when he was just an intern and still a student at Taipei Medical University in 1949. A pair of university lovers supposedly hung themselves by the Tamsui River, but the man survived. Later on, Dr Yang quickly proved that the noose was too small for two persons to be hung together. The man had murdered his girlfriend and staged a suicide attempt, complete with a forged suicide note, to cover up.
Dr Yang was only 21 years old then. (Jeez...what was I doing at 21?)
He went on to solve many difficult cases, which shocked Taiwan's society. Here are just 3 of them:
1. September 1977. It was Taiwan's 1st dismemberment murder case.
Two plastic bags containing about 6 pieces of body parts were found along the Dahan River.
DNA tests were non-existent then.
Dr Yang was called in, and his examination showed that the body parts belonged to the same person. He also provided the victim's age and possible identity at a reporters' conference, where he displayed the body parts on a table, and listed 10 areas of identification.
Including, the mammary glands were not enlarged, proof that the woman had never been pregnant.
And how the woman was possibly murdered and mutilated.
The police soon tracked the murderer to a ex-convict, who put up a false hiring notice, to trick young ladies.
.
2. 1990. The murder of a young Japanese undergraduate.
The body could not be found till a year later.
The young lady came to Taiwan for solo free and easy travel. She got onto a taxi, with a friendly driver who showed her around Taiwan. Iguchi Mariko agreed to staying at the driver's home for the night, when she could not find accommodation.
Her body was mutilated into 100+ parts and buried under a big tree. Her head was thrown into a rubbish bin.
When the police caught the taxi driver, Dr Yang provided scientific evidence that the taxi driver washed his home walls with strong chemicals and the water usage during the month of murder was 5 times the usual amount.
While the bones were too damaged to be tested for DNA, Dr Yang could piece them together that they belonged to the same person.
This case shocked both Taiwan and Japan.
3. 1993. The dead Marine Captain Yin Ching-feng (尹清楓)
The Captain was discovered dead along the coast of Yilan. The military claimed it was suicide by drowning. Dr Yang examined the corpse and discovered many wounds. There was no ocean debris in the lungs or other drowning symptoms.
Dr Yang announced that the Captain was murdered before being disposed into the ocean.
His honest words unscrambled a huge military scandal in Taiwan and caused many high-ranking officials to lose their jobs.

楊日松法醫:「法醫學是人權保障醫學。」
Dr Yang was also involved in the examination of 17-year-old Bai Hsiao Yen's mauled body. During the examination, Bai Bing Bing, the famous Taiwanese actress, mother of the victim, requested to be present.
Calling Dr Yang a Bodhisattva to the family of the victims, Bai Bing Bing was deeply moved by Dr Yang's comforting words to her:
我只能幫你瞭解真相。我沒有辦法再騰出我的手,再來救一個萬一昏倒的人。妳放心,妳信任我,我等一下一定會給妳最清楚的答案。
(I can only help you find out the truth. I am unable to lend another hand, to save a person who might faint. Don't worry. Trust me. Later I will definitely give you the clearest answer.)
Due to the nature of his work, Dr Yang contracted a skin disease, which caused great itchiness. Two months of seeing the doctor and injections did not help. Eventually, Dr Yang learnt of using rice water to wash his skin. Neighbours and Taiwanese who knew of Dr Yang's condition would bring rice water all the way to his home. It took 6 months before Dr Yang's skin ailment was under control.
#好人有好報

楊日松法醫:「對屍體要誠實。沒有誠實的人,不要來當。」
There were many cases that Dr Yang solved, with supernatural help.
Once, when he was on a car together with his friends, he spotted a lady sitting beside him. He kept quiet as he assumed she was the friend of one friend. Later on, the car was stopped at a roadblock, where the officer told Dr Yang that he was needed at a crime scene. By then, the lady had mysteriously disappeared.
When Dr Yang reached the scene, he saw that the corpse looked exactly like the lady in the car. He knew immediately it wasn't a suicide case, as seen from the surface.
Another time, Dr Yang was at home when there was a knock on his door. He opened the door and saw a lady in a tracksuit with her head down. The lady sought Dr Yang's help to examine her injury. Dr Yang replied that he didn't have his equipment right now and asked the lady to go to the police station tomorrow. The next morning, during an autopsy, Dr Yang saw a body which didn't have clear facial features, as the body was rescued from the river.
He asked for the police to show him the clothes the body was found in. It was the EXACT same tracksuit as the lady who knocked on his door last night.
One day after work, Dr Yang's car was flagged down by a lady standing by the road. It was pouring heavily. Dr Yang got the chauffeur to stop his car and the lady asked to hitch a ride. Dr Yang agreed. The lady remained silent and kept her head down throughout. Dr Yang found her vaguely familiar.
After she disembarked, for some reason, Dr Yang's chauffeur got lost and could not find his way home. For over an hour, his car kept turning around the same spot.
Feeling something was amiss, Dr Yang headed back to Yilan, and re-examined the corpse. He had initially deduced that the corpse had committed suicide by drinking pesticide. On his 2nd examination, he discovered that the pesticide was found in the lungs. Usually for such suicide case, pesticide would be present in the esophagus. But if one was forced to drink it, the pesticide would leak into the lungs. Dr Yang amended his autopsy conclusion of suicide to murder.
Many supernatural incidents like these had alerted Dr Yang to correcting his initial findings, and solving mysterious cases.
.
Yet, there were times when Dr Yang was unable to reach a conclusive result despite many rounds of autopsy.
Then, Dr Yang would pray to the "Floating Head" in his autopsy laboratory. It belonged to a murdered victim, whose case was also resolved by Dr Yang. For some reason, the family/friend didn't want to claim the head. The head had been preserved in a glass container of formalin for 50 over years and its hair and moustache would grow. It was the Guardian Protector of Dr Yang and his team.
Each time after Dr Yang prayed to it, he would gain new insights into the case on hand.
During the Hungry Ghosts' Festival, Dr Yang would lead his entire team to pray to the "good brothers" and made many offerings. He had never missed a year of prayers.
While most educated people turn their noses up at the talk of ghosts and gods, this is one Doctor who will bow humbly before them and ingrain into his team the importance of respect.
.
Dr Yang told my Grandmaster that in his past life, he was the confidential secretary to the King of Hades. Hence in this lifetime, he took on the role of a forensic expert, helping murdered victims to redress the injustice they suffered.
Dr Yang's Bazi was an interesting revelation to his life and character, and why his occupation suited his Bazi to a T.
During his time, there were less than 10 forensic experts in the whole of Taiwan.
His integrity, courage, care to minute details, diligence, quest to find the truth and dedication are qualities I deeply admired. The same qualities my Shifu had been drilling into me for the past 11 years to be a very competent practitioner.
In this era where most people worship the famous and the rich, it is very rare to find a noble character like Dr Yang, who also respected the spiritual world.
Before he passed on due to colon caner, Dr Yang had expressed no regret over his career choice. The only thing he felt bad about was not being to provide more for his children, as public servants in Taiwan earned much less than doctors.
But Dr Yang, your heroic legacy is one that your children and descendants can speak proudly of for decades. The merits you left for them can guarantee them a better life than money ever can buy.
Dr Yang was born on 23 November, 1927. He passed away on the same day, in 2011.
I wanted to post this article yesterday, on his birthday and death anniversary. I took too long to write and am a day late. But I still wish to share Dr Yang's great life story with you.
Congratulations on your promotion to be the righteous City God. You totally earned it. 🙏
城隍境主楊日松法醫,Happy Belated Birthday, Dr Yang. 🙇🏻♀️

Grand Theft Auto V is an open world, action-adventure video game developed by Rockstar North and published by Rockstar Games. It was released on 17 September 2013 for the PlayStation 3 and Xbox 360, and on 18 November 2014 for the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. It is scheduled to be released on 27 January 2015 for Microsoft Windows. The game is the first main entry in the Grand Theft Auto series since 2008's Grand Theft Auto IV. Set within the fictional state of San Andreas (based on Southern California), the single-player story follows three criminals and their efforts to commit heists while under pressure from a government agency. The open world design lets players freely roam San Andreas, which includes open countryside and the fictional city of Los Santos (based on Los Angeles).
The game is played from either a first-person[c] or third-person view and its world is navigated on-foot or by vehicle. Players control the three lead protagonists throughout the single-player mode, switching between them both during and outside of missions. The story is centred on the heist sequences, and many of the missions involve shooting and driving gameplay. Players who commit crimes may incite a response from law enforcement agencies, measured by a "wanted" system that governs the aggression of their response. Grand Theft Auto Online, the online multiplayer mode, lets up to 30 players explore the open world and engage in cooperative or competitive game matches.
Development began in 2009, soon after the release of Grand Theft Auto IV. The development team envisioned Grand Theft Auto V as a spiritual successor to many of their previous projects, such as Red Dead Redemption and Max Payne 3. The game's use of three lead protagonists is a break from series tradition—a design choice from the developers to innovate on the core structure of its predecessors. As part of their research for the open world, the developers conducted field research around California throughout development and captured footage for the design team. Development duties were shared between many of Rockstar's studios worldwide.
Following its announcement in October 2011, Grand Theft Auto V was widely anticipated. It was acclaimed by many reviewers, with praise particularly directed at its multiple protagonist design, open-ended gameplay and technical advancements. Critics were polarised by a scene depicting torture and the game's treatment of women. Some labelled the game inherently violent and misogynistic. Grand Theft Auto V broke industry sales records and became the fastest-selling entertainment product in history, earning US $800 million in its first day and US $1 billion in its first three days. It won year-end accolades, including Game of the Year awards from several gaming publications.
