Chapter 833 Judicial Justice Cannot Be Desecrated

Facts have proved once again that the butcher's knife may not be able to solve the problem, but it will certainly be able to solve the problem.

Since the Viennese government started a series of killings, the resistance to the government's investigation has suddenly declined. On the contrary, the number of people who surrendered to the investigation team suddenly increased.

Even the troubled investigation team members' safety issues were resolved at once, and the assassins seemed to disappear overnight.

The shocking reversal left Franz stunned. After co-authoring for more than half a year, the so-called toughness is all hard support. Seeing that the government was unwilling to give in, one by one persuaded.

Think about it, although there are many people involved in the case, there are very few real power factions.

Needless to say, most of the emerging aristocrats made their fortunes in wars, with their roots in the army, and a small number of capitalists transformed.

It has a short time to make a fortune and has no time to operate in the government. It is now in the accumulation stage, and there are very few people in important positions.

The premise of power and money trading is to take power first. If there is not enough power in hand, there will naturally be less people who are dragged into the water.

The old-fashioned aristocrats naturally have their own way of survival. Except for a few idiots, most of them know how to pay attention to eating and know when to stop.

Even if it is a fun transfer of benefits, it is a one-time transaction, not a business for repeat customers.

Immediately after finishing the incident, he would clean up the beginning and the end, destroy the relevant clues, and there would be no evidence at all on the bright side.

An occasional power and money transaction can be said to be an accidental coincidence. What will really be suspected is that it is actually a long-term cooperation. The officials have repeatedly broken the rules for a certain person or a certain company.

If there is no sign at all, even if the government wants to investigate, it does not know where to start.

Even the capitalists who paid for it do not necessarily know the true identity of the collaborators, and transactions are carried out through middlemen.

This can be seen from the list of persons involved in the case. Most of the officials arrested were from the middle class, grassroots, and some declining aristocrats, while emerging aristocrats and established aristocrats were in the minority.

The most powerful faction, when the anti-corruption case was launched, was already out of the way, and the rest naturally couldn't make a big wave.

Dare to resist the investigation, is nothing more than the inability to understand the context of the government, with a fluke mentality. Seeing that the government raised the butcher's knife, everyone was dumbfounded.

If you continue to carry it hard, you will only be able to rebel. This kind of high-risk, low-reward work is obviously not suitable for these homeowners.

This can also be seen from the multiple assassinations that took place in the past.

All the assassins couldn't even reach the amateur level, so they were not so much killers as they were junior high school boys.

There are no modern assassination tools, and many people rushed up with a fruit knife. The threat warning is obviously higher than the assassination itself.

After all, if the investigation team officials were really killed, it would not be a matter of corruption and imprisonment, but to lose their heads.

No matter what your identity is, how hard the background is, and if you violate the rules of the game, you must pay the price of blood.

...

Franz asked suspiciously, "Do you want to execute so many people?"

Not that he made a fuss, the execution of thousands at a time in a peaceful age is appalling enough in itself.

In fact, the thousand people executed by the Vienna government caused a stir, claiming to be the largest execution in Europe in the past decade.

This is no joke. After the Paris Revolution was suppressed, the French government did not execute so many prisoners in the post-autumn reckoning. Only in the great purge carried out by Alexander II more than ten years ago, the number of executions exceeded 1,000.

Now there are more than 5,000 people to be executed. If this is completed, it is estimated that this will be a world record that has never been seen before and has never come later.

Of course, this is a precondition - "anti-corruption and gangsterism" and "trial by the court".

Prime Minister Karl replied affirmatively: "Yes, Your Majesty! According to the criminal law of the Empire, all 5,316 people above should be sentenced to death.

In addition, 4,328 people fall into the category of death penalty and life sentence. "

Prime Minister Carl is also very helpless. The evidence has been found. There is no need for special targeting, and these guys can be sent to the guillotine.

The Vienna government faced a difficult problem. Killing all of them would have too much impact. The execution of a thousand people in front of them caused a sensation in the European world.

If more than 5,000 people are wiped out, or if it is simply enough to collect 10,000 people, then international public opinion will not be able to fry the pot, and there is no shortage of mouth guns in any world.

Showing mercy is also not acceptable, which involves the issue of the dignity of the law. The evidence is in front of us and we will not deal with it. After this precedent is set, who knows what impact it will have in the future?

There is a commutation, the problem is that these guys are not enough! You can't let the emperor use his privileges to commute these people's sentences, right?

Rubbing his forehead, Franz could only sigh that there were so many scumbags in Austria that so many criminals were easily caught.

Franz asked: "These people are all identities?"

Prime Minister Carr: "Among these felons, more than 5,000 people have a triad background, and most of them are gang leaders and thugs who have murder cases.

Mainly engaged in the collection of protection fees, underground casinos, usury, drug trafficking, counterfeit banknotes and other illegal activities.

In addition, there are more than 3,000 thugs raised by capitalists. Nearly half of these people have triad backgrounds at the same time.

The number of capitalists and officials who need to be sentenced to death is actually not too many, and they add up to less than 1,000 people. Among them, there are slightly more capitalists and officials.

In fact, less than 100 people were seriously involved in the case. "

This result did not surprise Franz.

As long as the underworld members have a murder case in hand, they will basically not be able to escape. Even if it is an accident, it will not work, after all, other crimes have to be accumulated.

For these people, the Austrian government has always punished severely. Anyway, they are the scum of society, and there is no need to worry about manslaughter.

In contrast, the capitalists and officials involved in the case, even if they have problems, are mostly economic problems, or they are involved in the underworld, and few people are directly responsible for the murder case.

There are so many capitalists and officials who want to lose their heads. Most of them are too involved in the underworld, and they are jointly and severally liable in the law, and they are brought in together.

As for whether someone will lose their heads because of the huge amount of corruption, Franz can answer with certainty: No!

The Anti-Corruption Bureau and the police are not just idle food. There are too many industries to cover.

The source of the huge amount of unknown property is itself a firefly in the dark night, and it is difficult not to be targeted.

Everyone knows that Austrian officials don't do anything when they collect money. Even if it's legal, ordinary people don't dare to give bribes at all.

Even if someone gives it to you, you must first consider whether you have encountered phishing law enforcement. This kind of thing is often done by the Anti-Corruption Bureau.

Corruption and bribery can only squeeze wool from a few reliable people, how much oil and water can be squeezed out?

After careful calculation, Franz found that it seemed that protecting these people had no value except to cause trouble for himself.

As for international public opinion, go ahead and say it if you like it. Anyway, you can't stop it because your mouth is on someone else's body.

No matter how many criminals are executed, no one will really come over to point fingers. Those who dare to interfere in Austria's internal affairs do not exist these days.

"Judicial justice cannot be desecrated, and this time we will use these people to show the outside world our determination to maintain judicial justice.

Round up the whole number, it will be more deterrent. It just so happened that this matter became the benchmark for Austrian law. "

After listening to the word "benchmark", Prime Minister Karl swallowed the words he had prepared. Justice also needs blood to forge.

This is the opposite of the law not blaming the public. If the people involved are more merciful today, the deterrent effect of the law will be greatly reduced, and more similar incidents will occur in the future.

Rather than burying hidden dangers in the future, it is better to cut through the mess now. It's useless for these people to stay anyway, and there is no shortage of labor in Austria now.

"Yes, Your Majesty!" Prime Minister Carl replied cautiously
