He used to live a quiet life, repeating the ordinary days of hard work to support his family. However, one day at the end of August this year, with a sudden case, he suddenly became the focus of news. In the next five days, he experienced waves that he had never experienced before, and public opinion also focused on the truth of the incident, how to define it, crime and non-crime, and many other issues inside and outside the rule of law. This has brought a great test of law enforcement and public opinion response to the case-handling organs. What happened around these key five days? What kind of enlightenment has it brought to society?

The tearful man in the picture is named Yu Haiming. In the five days before that, from being hacked to killing the other side, from being taken into the public security organ to being released without responsibility, he experienced the biggest ups and downs in his life. Why was he hacked? Why kill people? Why are you not responsible? What happened to him?
Kunshan City, Jiangsu Province, ranks first among the top 100 counties and cities in China for many years. Behind the rapid economic development, there are a large number of migrant workers. Yu Haiming, one of them, goes out early and comes back late, working hard for his own life.
Case review: An amazing scene happened after BMW was forcibly merged.
At 9: 30 pm on August 27, 2018, Yu Haiming came home from work. When he rode to the intersection of Zhenchuan Road and Shunfan Road in Kunshan City, he met a BMW in motion and tried to merge into his non-motorized vehicle lane.
The shocking scene that happened next lasted only a few minutes, and the process was restored through surveillance video, police investigation video and the story of the parties.

The monitoring showed that at 21: 36: 54 that night, the BMW braked for the first time. Then, Yu Haiming dodged a little, looked back and stopped the bicycle.
Yu Haiming:It happened to be downhill, and there was a turn at the downhill. It was inconvenient to park there at the turn, and the brakes were not good. Then I stopped at a flat place above the bridge.
Just two seconds apart, at 21: 36: 56, the BMW went on for about one meter, and then stopped again.
Yu Haiming:When I saw the car, my first reaction was that I wondered if he wanted to turn right, and then I moved my bike a little further to the side.
We later learned that there were four people on the BMW. They are Liu Hailong driving the vehicle, Tang Moumou in the co-pilot seat, Liu Moumou sitting on the left in the back row, and Liu Mou on the right.
According to Liu, who was sitting in the back of BMW, Liu Hailong and Yu Haiming had a quarrel, one in the car and the other outside, but this was not confirmed by Yu Haiming.
Liu Moumou (a fellow passenger in Liu Hailong): At that time, there was a car crash, and BMW driver Liu Hailong quarreled with the other two.
Policeman: When the bus came, did you say anything to the people on board?
Yu Haiming: No.
Yu Haiming: I looked back at him. When I saw the car coming, I naturally turned around.
The monitoring showed that at 21: 37: 04, Liu walked out of the BMW, and Liu, the woman sitting in the back row, also got off the bus.
Liu Moumou: His girlfriend pulled Liu Hailong to stop him from going down. He asked me to go down and watch. I went down and watched. He said there was a crash. I went down and watched. I said there was no crash. I ran down and asked the cyclist if he was injured or not.
Yu Haiming: As soon as the man (Liu Moumou) came down, I stepped back from the bike. I thought he was going to hit me, and he was angry, but I really didn’t hear what he said.
Yu Yuming said that he didn’t catch what the man, that is, Liu Moumou said, but when he saw the other person angry, he felt very scared and kept staring at him. Subsequently, the monitoring showed that at 21: 37: 18, the woman who got off the BMW moved Yu Ming’s bike to the sidewalk. At this time, a black man standing at the top right of the screen also came to Yu Haiming’s side, and this person was waiting for Yuan Mou, a colleague of Yu Haiming. At this point, Liu has walked back to the front of the car.
Yu Haiming: What did I say? I said, what’s wrong? Because people after work are very tired after a day’s work, and I’m not the one who really wants to make trouble, so I just said what’s wrong, just casually.
I don’t know if Yu Haiming’s words stimulated Liu Moumou. The monitoring showed that at 21: 37: 28, Liu Moumou stepped forward again.
Yu Haiming: I just felt a little angry because the woman pulled him and he didn’t say anything.
Under the persuasion of Liu, a fellow woman, Liu walked towards the BMW again. So far, there has been no physical conflict between the two sides. Seeing that the incident was about to subside, no one expected that the scene would suddenly escalate. The driver sitting in the BMW driver’s seat suddenly got off the bus and angrily left for Haiming. He was Liu Hailong.
Liu Moumou: We were all ready to get on the bus, and he (Liu Hailong) rushed down again.
As can be seen from the monitoring, at 21: 37: 59, Liu pulled Liu Hailong, but did not pull. At this point, Liu Hailong’s goal is Yu Haiming.
Liu Moumou: Two people scolded each other, one scolded you for being blind, and he was blind, and then they scolded each other.
Yu Haiming: What’s the matter? What’s the matter? Or what’s wrong? All I said was, what’s wrong, what’s wrong.
Liu moumou: I’ll tell that person to go first, or call someone if he doesn’t leave.
The monitoring shows that at 21: 38, Liu Hailong shook off Liu Moumou beside him and directly pushed Yu Haiming.
Yu Haiming: Then there was a fight. Just hit me. At the beginning, I thought that if he took it out on me, I would forget it. I felt that he was fierce, and I was afraid. At that time, I didn’t resist. He hit me, but I just pushed him.
Surveillance shows that at 21: 38: 11, Liu Hailong’s girlfriend Tang Moumou got off the co-pilot and stepped forward to dissuade him. However, over time, the conflict quickly escalated from pushing to punching and kicking.
Yu Haiming: I got angry when I kicked my stomach. Why, you are, thinking it’s too bullying.
At this point, Yu Haiming, who felt unbearable, chose to punch back.
Yu Haiming: I said, why do you bully people so much? Are there any of you who bully people so much? He said he would bully you, and then he hit me with his fist.
Policeman: He hit you with his fist again.
Yu Haiming: Then I fucked him. When my fist came, I returned it. It was this one punch, I should say, I kicked my feet again, and I got a punch. I guess I hit him.
Several people have physical contact at this time. Yu Yuming said that he felt that Liu, who was next to him, had been helping Liu Hailong hold him, while Liu said that he wanted to pull them apart.

At 21: 38: 24, Liu waved and punched Yu Haiming. The conflict between the two sides became more and more fierce. Ten seconds later, Liu Hailong suddenly turned to BMW. Monitoring shows that after Liu Hailong got the machete, he ran towards Yu Haiming, and the first knife hit Yu Haiming’s neck.
Yu Haiming: It was this time that I was cut off and everyone went crazy. At that time, I felt dizzy and couldn’t remember anything. I really didn’t dare to think about it.
In the next 10 seconds, Liu Hailong struck Haiming with his knife four times, and then when Liu Hailong swung his knife for the sixth time, an accident appeared, and the machete was thrown out of his hand. Seeing that the machete fell to the ground, Yu Haiming and Liu Hailong made the same reaction at this time. They pulled each other and ran quickly to the machete.
Yu Haiming: Grab the knife quickly. /I just waved him with a knife. It feels like a split personality. It’s too bullying.
Yu Haiming’s description of his psychological state at that time was a word "chaos".
Yu Haiming: My brain is in a mess, especially in a mess. I’m afraid they will hit me with something again, so I just flick the knife. I want to scare them away. The man doesn’t seem to have run away, just the bald head. I thought he had something short on him. I originally wanted to scare them away. I was crazy. I waved it around with my eyes closed. Didn’t he get scared when I took the knife? He should have run away. He didn’t run away.
Monitoring shows that Liu Hailong ran to the BMW car after being cut, and Yu Haiming chased him with a knife.
Yu Haiming: I’m afraid to run to the BMW and get something again. I’m afraid to look for something with a knife.
In the chase, Liu Hailong ran to the roadside Woods.
Yu Haiming: Because he went that way, I came back.
Yu Yuming said that because there were several people on the BMW at first, he was worried that one of them might hit him with a car, so he quickly ran to the BMW and prepared to turn off the car.
Yu Haiming: Then I looked at it and there was no key on it.
Policeman: I don’t care, right?
Yu Haiming: I don’t care. I just don’t have a mobile phone in my seat. I’m afraid they will call someone. We brought it to him.
Subsequently, Yu Haiming asked Yuan, a colleague who had come to see him before, to help report the police. It was 21: 39 p.m. More than five minutes later, the police arrived at the scene, and the law enforcement recorder recorded the police process. 120 also rushed to the scene soon, taking Yu Haiming and Liu Hailong who fell in the Woods to the hospital. After more than an hour’s rescue, Liu Hailong died of his injuries.

Yu Haiming’s trial screen
After the incident, Yu Haiming was criminally summoned by Kunshan police on suspicion of intentional injury. Ten hours later, on the afternoon of August 28th, the police in Kunshan criminally detained Haiming and held him here.
Ji Qiang, deputy head of the Criminal Police Brigade of Kunshan Public Security Bureau: This compulsory measure was taken because the case needs further investigation. We considered it at that time, because, after all, Yu Haiming pursued and cut two knives in the later stage. At that time, there was no way to tell whether these two knives were cut. Only through forensic identification and video surveillance in the later stage, one by one, there was no way to identify this situation at that time.
At this time, Yu Haiming, who is in the detention center, can’t sleep at night and is anxious about his fate.
Yu Haiming: During my detention, I felt very depressed.
When the police told Hai Ming about Liu Hailong’s death two days later, he was even more uncontrollable.
Yu Haiming: Cry.
At this time, Yu Haiming did not know that the case related to him quickly squeezed into the public eye with the exposure of on-site monitoring in the network and other channels. People focus on the incident, discuss the background of the characters, and express their opinions one after another. At the same time, they pay more attention to the fate of this man named Yu Haiming. Is he suspected of committing a crime? How should his behavior be determined?
Zhang Jianwei, a professor at Tsinghua University Law School: People have a kind of expectation and anxiety about the handling of this case. The whole process of the case was photographed by the monitoring probe, so people can learn about the occurrence of the whole case and the final result through such audio-visual materials, so people have their own judgment.
Wang Jingbo, a professor at China University of Political Science and Law: The public’s attention to these hot events should be said to be a good thing, because people’s nature is a fundamental attribute of both law enforcement and justice, so the public’s attention in our society is conducive to law enforcement agencies and judicial organs to handle cases more fairly.
At this time, for the case-handling organ, it faces a double test. First, what are the facts of the case and how to deal with them; The second is how to face the surging public opinion.
Zhu Wei, a professor at China University of Political Science and Law: I think what is the relationship between justice and public opinion? I don’t think this is called kidnapping by public opinion or being influenced by public opinion. Instead, the simple values in the people’s own society are measured by law and judged by the judicial results. If it meets the requirements, the credibility of the judiciary will greatly increase.
