Is it justifiable defense for four people in Maoming, Guangdong Province to "injure" the knife-wielding perpetrators? Why?

In this wounding case, the four injured people must be "self-defense", because a surveillance camera photographed the whole process and every detail was presented in the video screen. The four injured people were all defending themselves and didn't mean to hurt intentionally.

Moreover, at present, the relevant departments have determined that four people belong to legitimate defense and do not assume responsibility.

Case review: The "bully" in the village bullied the weak on weekdays and chased the cousins for no reason.

The injured man's name is Zhou Hui, and the man he chased is Bai Zhou. They were originally cousins.

Zhou Hui is a famous bully in the village. He has a bad temper and is unreasonable. Not only for Bai Zhou, but also for other people in the village.

Because Bai Zhou's family runs two pig farms and raises a lot of poultry, they often call trucks to pull goods and deliver them.

However, the problem of pulling goods made Bai Zhou very headache. Every time the van he called arrived, Zhou Hui ran to stop it, and the two families had a dispute over it.

This chase is actually an emergency. I happened to meet Zhou Hui with a knife.

On the day of the incident, Zhou Hui rode a motorcycle home, first complaining about his wife and son, then going out with a machete and scaring his wife at the door.

Then there is a scene in the video. Zhou Hui passed by the pig farm with a knife. It happened that Zhou Baigang came out of the house after feeding the pig, holding an iron spoon in his hand.

Hui Zhou suspected that Bai Zhou was challenging himself. I was very dissatisfied, and then I rushed to Zhou Bochong with a knife. There was no communication between the two during the period!

The sight frightened Bai Zhou. In a panic, I threw him away with an iron spoon and ran to the pig farm, constantly calling for help.

Zhou Hui chased after him and cut with a knife. Bai Zhou picked up the hose to resist, and they ran around the pigsty for a long time.

At this time, Bai Zhou's three sons rushed to see Hui Zhou chasing his father. So I quickly searched for weapons to save people.

The three picked up sticks, shovels, bamboo sticks and other items, but Zhou Hui was too crazy to get close, so he threw sticks and other items outside the pig farm.

Obviously, the purpose of these three people throwing objects is to distract Zhou Hui and let his father in the pig farm escape. No intention of hurting anyone!

During the confrontation, Zhou Hui suddenly fell and the machete in his hand slipped aside. Bai Zhou escaped from the pig farm, quickly picked up the machete and threw it into the pond.

I thought it was over, but Zhou Hui took out a machete from behind and planned to continue hurting people.

Four men hit him again and injured him.

It was not until Zhou Hui sat on the ground and stopped attacking that the four people had a chance to escape, and hid in another pig farm and ran to a safe place on the second floor to call the police.

Judging from the video content, Bai Zhou didn't provoke Zhou Hui in the whole process, but Zhou Hui went to the pig farm with a knife for no reason and pursued it fiercely.

During the fight, the four men had no intention of hurting others, and they were always defending themselves. Moreover, after effectively stopping the killing, the four people immediately stopped the attack and chose to flee to a safe place to call the police, without causing secondary harm to Zhou Hui.

Therefore, in this case, the four wounded were absolutely self-defense.

What I am most concerned about now is not the issue of self-defense, but whether this "slasher with a knife" should be held accountable.

Although Bai Zhou was only slightly injured. However, what is the subjective intention of the person who cuts people with a knife?

Was it intentional homicide? Or intentionally hurt people?

The author thinks that according to his crazy behavior of chasing and chopping Bai Zhou with a knife, his subjective intention of "intentional killing" is very strong.

If Zhou Hui has the intention of "intentional homicide" subjectively, then this case should be treated as "attempted intentional homicide". Meet the sentencing standards.

Moreover, it's not once or twice that Zhou Hui cuts people with a knife. There have been many murders before.

April 20 15, four villagers passed by his house, were stopped by him and his son for no reason, and were beaten with wooden sticks, causing injuries.

2065438+February 2007, Zhou Hui went to a villager's house with a machete and a wooden stick and beat him, causing the other person's head injury.

2017165438+10, Zhou Hui and his son smashed the villagers' iron gate for no reason and injured two people who came to dissuade them.

In April 2020, Zhou Hui beat a villager near the pig farm for no reason, causing him to be injured.

In May 2020, Zhou Hui drunk and drove a motorcycle to the police station to make trouble.

This time, he really moved the knife. So, what about next time? Next time, can the person who was cut be so lucky to escape?

Therefore, I think this issue should be taken seriously. We shouldn't let such recidivists and bullies develop. We must hold them accountable and let them truly realize their mistakes.
