TaiwanPlus, 2023-3-6: Taiwan Poll Finds Widespread Public Mistrust of Prosecutors

 

  More case study - legal? political ??

Why most Taiwanese do not believe Taiwan's judicial system? 

 

  see Taiwanese prosecutors by some questionable cases ( exact meanings in Chinese ) .

 

1.

 Prosecutor/judge WEN TZU-TE

 

Doctor of Law, University of Illinois Urbana-Champaign College of Law,

Prosecutor - Investigate, indict, and litigate mainly cases of corruption, human

trafficking, sexual offenses, bribery, fraud, and domestic violence; Adjunct Lecturer - Specific Provisions of Code of Criminal Law

 

Brief, Wen's non-prosecutorial disposition concluded:

 

(1) The household caregiver pulled up a  disabled elderly (aged 92, sleepy, and dizzy by  6 medications each with warning-remark: falling prevention ) from bed in sleeping time, a very early morning, then led the old lady's  stick a step ahead, before the elderly lady's stick touched the floor,  the caregiver immediately turn back and run away, then the dizzy old lady fell down, Prosecutor Wen Tzu-Te thinks the caregiver didn't want of reasonable care, it's neither a negligent conduct nor intentional harm/ willful act.   (The  disabled elderly lady should be responsible for her falling down).

(2) Prosecutor Investigator in a Inquiry Session questioned the caregiver why she disappeared a fine-quality porcelain-chinaware,  the caregiver answered 'he "hit" ...',  This guilty-pleading/acknowledgement proved what the caregiver did (larceny /theft, damage and even made old lady falling ) were designed to revenge a "hit" ( of course a lie ! it's impossible to get any hit because lots of video camera set up in the house; Who else boss will treat a laborer to 5 star restaurant?  ).  But  prosecutor Wen concluded it's unsubstantiated that the suspect did those by intention, and those were not criminal wrongdoings.   (further details of this case pls. see the web-pages below)

 

tThe suspected caregiver intentionally harm an old lady aged 92  !

(1) the care-giver pulled up a dizzy, disabled elderly from bed (2) care-giver led old lady's stick forward (3) the stick was farther and farther (4) before the stick touched down floor, caregiver already turned (5) caregiver turned back and left very soon without reasonable statement (6)  old lady aged 92 fell down backward and suffered injuries.
The caregiver's sister broke another old lady's arm by similar way, therefore, the caregiver is suspicious of intentional harm act or even murder.  However, the prosecutor thinks the caregiver has no responsibility at all.

 Chief Prosecutor Lin Bang-liang ,  Prosecutor Huang Yi-Hua 黃怡華, Wang Xin-Jian 王鑫健

Ignoring witness testament and other evidences, the chief prosecutor and two prosecutors concluded a criminal case merely by looking at the defendant's a smile on video DVD for about one second, 15 minutes after the crime was committed. 
CTS news reported that Taiwan's lie detector test usually taking
38 ~ 130 minutes, still failed again and again for human factor involved, how can prosecutors judged a case by one second's look ?   (details pls. read insult case)

 

 

 

3.

 Prosecutor Yang Wan-Yeu

A suspected unwanted intruder kept insulting house-owner by strident voice & violent words like "You're incompetent", and stayed 30-50 minutes after having received formal expel-notice to leave, eventually police with guns came .... Taiwan's prosecutors of Taipei District Court concluded the 'home invader' was not intend to stay the residence  because the 'intruder' left the house after armed police's "communication & persuasion", eventually the prosecutor decided not to prosecute the intruder.    The high court concluded the humiliation phrase "You're incompetent (useless or waste)" is a subjective view and is not against the public-insult  law.    (details of this case pls. click home invasion, self defense, deliberate humiliation case )  instead, the prosecutor charge the house-owner's self-defense - pull & push the intruder out by naked hands ( but failed )

 

4.

 Detective Chen You-Ren 陳宥任

 

  A fake criminal case referral paper !!  

 

  Criminal case referral paper (刑案移送書) The statement by the accused (筆錄)
 
The
statement by the suspect:

The suspect...stated: ... so he Push the victim down to floor by a chair

 

 

Q:  Did you hold out against the victim's chest by a chair , and attacked by your fist...

 

A: ...I held victim's (un-welcome home-invader) arm by my hand and ask the victim leave my home ...

  SO....

Songshan Precinet, Taipei City Police Department faked the accused's statement   ―   "by hand" was changed to "by chair",  "hold the arm" became "down to floor")

(details of this case pls click remain home not leave, self-defense case )

 

 

5.

     High court's conclusion

 

(1) A 5 star hotel restaurant chef shouted "the exit is there ! the toilet is out there !!" and sniffed at a dining customer (didn't ask chef where toilet is) in the presence of large number of
customers in 5 star hotel's popular restaurant, the prosecutors concluded the suspect committed no any
humiliation offense (a crime of defamation, public insult which is similar to American Laws around libel & slander) .


(2) The court expert-examinations failed to tell who spoke those
loud and clear phrases 

 

 


(3) "toilet" is a symbol of waste, and stinky, dirty things.

 

(4) Taiwan isn't a foodie-friendly country, or a civilized country   -  compared with the good rules of American's restaurants - ref. to Forbes, 9-3-2012, New York Times, 10-29-2009.

(5)  chef's boss should tell his voice (only a few chefs in his dept.), but the prosecutor said they can't.
(7) the chef kept sniffed at me, a foreigner proved this in police station.

CASE 1 : a larceny /theft/damage & impairment case ruled by Prosecutor WEN TZU-TE

 

  comment Taiwan legal system

 Argument  1. 

 

   

   ● Prosecutor/judge Wen TZU-TE:
 
    The non-Prosecutor disposition states The suspect (household caregiver) pulled up the victim from bed till she stood stable in position with a stick, then the suspect turned back seemly to turn on the light or open the toilet door, at this moment, the victim released the stick and fell backward, the suspect turned back again and tried to hold the victim ...  Prosecutor/judge Wen TZU-TE think it's difficult to know the suspect lacks reasonable care, it's neither a negligent conduct nor intentional harm/ willful act .  

   ● The victim/accuser :  It is a  criminal act!  the judge made wrong judgment.

       (1) The  victim is disabled elderly, aged 92, and is in a status of sleepy and dizzy for having taken  6 medication each with hospital's warning-remark: falling prevention .   The evidence DVD shows very clearly the old lady is dizzy and the whole body was very disabled.  

       (2)  Why not see the video !? The suspect led (by her hand) the old lady to move her stick one step ahead, at the very same moment before the  stick touched down the floor,  the suspect turned back,  dizzy old lady was already unstable and loosened her hand on the stick and fell down backward.    Even in daytime, the old lady is unstable, let alone It's sleeping time in very early morning.

       (3)  The suspect admitted supporting the old lady to move is her main job, she have been doing this correctly every day and night for about 6 months, in total about 1500~1800 times .  It's impossible the suspect, a young girl's brain memory did not serve only this time,  she should do it in safe way as usual -   first of all to turn on the restroom light or open the toilet door when the old lady sit or lie on bed.   So, obviously it is an intentional harm/ willful act.  

       (4)  For years the old lady took lots of medicines, 6 of those cause dizziness, must prevent from falling.  The suspect certainly knew the old lady was unstable according to her day-after-day experience.  DVD shows the old lady is general fatigue very clearly.   So, it is an intentional crime.

         (5) The suspect's sister/bestie, a household care-giver had broken a 88 yrs-old old lady's arm by the same way - pulled her up and turn back, let her fall down behind.   Is it possible the suspect make terrible mistake again by accident?? 

 

        (6)  The suspect's blood sister made a phone call to apology the suspect "hit" the old lady.  It is easy for the Prosecutor/judge Wen TZU-TE  to find out the truth   just investigate the phone record.

        (7)  the Prosecutor/judge Wen TZU-TE should read some previous judgments, such as (Chinese version)

  臺南地方法院刑事判決103年度訴緝字第49號,「疏未注意,而讓林徐達自編號H2床上跌落地上」;臺灣高雄地方法院刑事判決九十一年度訴字第三二七二號 ,竟容任失智之老人獨自乘坐輪椅」;臺灣士林地方法院刑事判決99年度訴字第196號,「竟疏於注意照料,未予適時翻身,及避免李松岩跌倒及翻身之力道與臥床之姿勢、動作...」 ;以上受害人均被置於相對穩定安全之床、椅,被告尚且有罪,本案被告任由老人於睡夢間精神恍惚中獨自站立,失職更為嚴重
  聯合報(1-21-2016)大標題「印尼看護扶翁雙雙跌倒 遭告到返國」

 

        Therefore, what the suspect did is intentional harm/ willful act to impair a old lady, at least it is negligent conduct or fault liability impairment.

      

 

 

 

comment Taiwan Prosecutor/judges

Argument  2. 

 

 

 

  ● Prosecutor/judge Wen TZU-TE:
 
    The non-prosecutorial disposition states the  accused acknowledged she did throw away the  porcelain-chinaware, and expressed she can only understand simple Chinese language, it's because the victim 's son kept asking her 3 times to throw it away, so she followed his direct.

      Therefore the Prosecutor/judge Wen TZU-TE ruled that the possibility of misunderstanding can't be ruled out.

  The victim :  It is a  criminal act of larceny /theft / damage

       (1) In the Inquiry Session dated 2-2-2016,  prosecutor-investigator questioned the caregiver (suspect) why she threw away a fine-quality porcelain-chinaware,  the caregiver answered "he hit ...".   So,  the suspect already acknowledged mistake and proved what she did (larceny /theft, damage and even made old lady falling ) were designed to revenge a "hit" which is her persecution mania or a trick -  because the house she work installed many video-camera, hence, any hit will be taped as evidence, why didn't she lawsuit her boss ??

       (2)  misunderstanding is not possible at all

           <1> reason 1: all related words such as "you", "throw it away", "do not" etc, are included in the suspect's <working manual - commonly used Chinese > , only 2 pages, 100+ words in total,  the suspect learned that 100 words for more than 4 months already,  and heard the direct "throw away"(garbage) day after day for several months , furthermore, all Indonesians must take intensive class about 3 months before coming Taiwan, if failed the test they are not allowed to leave Indonesia.
            

             <2> reason 2:   The Prosecutor/judge summoned a witness who stated the suspect knows about 1/10 Chinese language.  According to a study (The most common Chinese characters in order of  frequency ) by Harvard Univ., all related words in this legal case locate within top range (of course within 1/10).   Eventually, the Prosecutor/judge changed his mind and does not buy the witness testimony.

             <3> reason 3:    the victim and victim 's son already stated by documents and statement in the Inquiry Session more than 2 times that porcelain is a legacy from her brother and a memento of remembrance, it's impossible to order the suspect to throw it away, so, she won't misunderstand a "zero order".    

             <4> reason 4:  The suspect agreed it's a fine-quality porcelain-chinaware, so, it's unreasonable and impossible for victim 's son ordered her to throw it away.   It violates the rule of thumb (erfahrungsmasig).

 

       (3) The suspect did all shopping by herself for more than 4 months, this proves she has enough Chinese comprehension ability. 

       (4) The non-prosecutorial disposition wrote the  accused expressed  the victim 's son "took out that porcelain-chinaware from refrigerator ", " asked her to throw it away 3 times consecutively ".    However, the evidence DVD proves the suspect did not follow his order to throw it away.   The prosecutor did not look the evidence DVD, obviously !  

       (5)  Shifting the blame by "It's boss's order (wanting me to do something illegal)" to fool the judge is commonly seen in previous judgments, such as (in Chinese):

 

新北地方法院刑事判決104年度易字第1430號: 「被告空言辯稱上開物品係雇主所丟棄或贈送云云,自不足採,其主觀上顯有不法所有之竊盜犯意甚明。」
臺中地方法院刑事簡易判決101年度中簡字第1022號 、101年度偵緝字第406號: 「被害人有同意,他也知情」...「 實難想像被害人同意給被告系爭現金。」
臺北地方法院刑事判決九十一年度易字第一九 號: 「 復又翻異前詞,改辯稱:係阿公..陸續給伊錢云云」...「惟於本院審理中矢口否認犯罪,並飾詞狡辯
高雄地方法院刑事簡易判決100年度簡字第4785號: 「辯稱被竊毛衣及牛仔裙均為告訴人贈送」已置於被告實力支配內,本件被告竊盜 犯行應堪認定」 ;
 

             The prosecutor has no knowledge about this ??  foreign laborer's basic trick!!     
 

       (6)  DVD shows the suspect did not throw the  porcelain together with other garbage into the trash bag, instead, she held the trash bag by right hand, held the porcelain in left hand, and walk out, later, the porcelain disappeared.

 

       (7)  That porcelain is a property of the victim, from DVD evidence, she sit next to the refrigerator, why the suspect did not ask her if it should be throw away?

Argument 3. 

 

 

   ● Prosecutor/judge Wen TZU-TE:
 
    The non-prosecutorial disposition states there's no proof to prove the suspect did them by intention, and those are not criminal wrongdoings.

 

   ● The victim :  It is a  criminal act of larceny /theft / damage

 

     (1) DVD as evidence:

The suspect admitted mistakes

The victim's son Anise, did you say last time that you will not throw any stuffs away any more
Anise Yes, sir
The victim's son That porcelain-chinaware is expensive
Anise what?
The victim's son Last time we saw it around Costco area, it cost 800 dollars
Anise Yes, sir
The victim's son Besides, don't spend too much time on shopping in RT-Mart
Anise silent and unhappy

  

   (2) The DVD proved the suspect deceited the officials several times, and should not be trusted.  Actually, many foreign laborers are hidden crimes, The United Daily 聯合報( 3-1-2016): "foreign laborers, one after another, came and run away illegally, " "More and more illegal foreign laborers are looking for jobs in Taiwan".  The image of maids in "House of Cards" of USA and Singapore's <Ilo Ilo> (Cannes film award) is a thief.   In contrast, The victim's son has a press card from Euro.

                Prosecutor/judge Wen TZU-TE suppose know which one is trustable by doctrine of discretional evaluation of evidence.
     

 

 

 

 

comment Taiwan judiciary

 

Argument 4. 

 

   ● Prosecutor/judge Wen TZU-TE:
 
    

       The non-prosecutorial disposition states the Cathay hospital M.D. letter (9 months later than the date crimes occurred) mentioned there's no obvious external injury and broken-bone by X-ray examination.

  

   The victim : 

 

        (1) The medical records issued by Cathay Hospital proves the old lady suffered contusion etc.  The M.D. did  Patrick's test and medical examinations on local tenderness over low back area (see pic below)

 

        (2) The NTUH's  medical certificate (Certificate of diagnosis) proves it's a compression fracture by C.T. scan examination taken 2 months later.

 

 
        (3) The Supreme court's judgment : both medical records and
medical certificate can be legal proof.

 

          (4)  Many other judgments (The prosecutor charged those cases for victims' contusion, or just painful without obvious external injuries) documents (in Chinese) support victim in this case

Conclusion /
  

Prosecutor Wen TZU-TE (now got a promotion to be the judge in Aug. 2016) took about 8 months to investigate this simple (with evidence DVD) case, and release the non-prosecutorial disposition at 8-8-2016 Father's Day ("8" in Chinese sounds "Father").   This is an coincidence, hope not a metaphor.

 

Experts, scholars, and all Taiwanese people , do you agree at Prosecutor's conclusion ?? How do you like if your maid did the same thing to you??

 

◆  Suggest:   Making a new law or amending old law to disqualify unqualified prosecutors and judges, intentionally making a wrong conclusion or judgment (equal to violation of criminal law, not civil law).   Any officer seriously violating the law should be eliminated from the justice field!

 

 

 

ps: The High court rejected the victim's reconsideration document because they count the 7-days due from the date that building custodian/attendant at counter in 1st floor  received non-prosecutorial disposition, instead of the victim in  the12th floor received it.

FTV news (民視 ftvnews.com.tw/video/detail/EZGVKONcl4I  ), 2022-12-17 Taipei city mayor Ko: I still hope that the judiciary is the last line of defense of the country, so far it has not met this standard (希望司法是國家最後一道防線,到目前為止還沒有達到這個標準).  Expert:   Justice is not the last line of defense for social justice.  The judiciary has no way to convince Taiwanese people. All signs of judicial reform are gone. Prosecutors might be self-restricting (自我限縮) themselves depending who the suspect is (Varies from person to person).  The variables are too big for us to believe.  Many judges and prosecutors transfer their job to be a lawyer, rising the question that - is judging or investigation working well ? The current judges and prosecutors are their juniors, the field of judiciary still "respect" the ethics.  In today's Taiwan, the clients usually do not ask which lawyer is more capable or more experienced, but ask whether or not the lawyer is familiar with judges and prosecutors. They are all talking about relationships and connections! Taiwan's judicial reform will never work !   資深媒體人吳國棟

Taiwan's president has never talked about anti-corruption, in recent years, the prosecutors and investigation gov. have not solved any big corruption cases, unlike lots of crack-downs in old days, instead, they focus on New National Security cases.  No wonder Taiwan president insists abolishing Special Investigation Division (SPD) .
