   The Control Yuan of Taiwan warned to impeach of Taiwanese prosecutors' abuse of inner conviction (doctrine of discretional evaluation of evidence;  free evaluation of evidence through inner conviction ) since 2003. (Epoch Times, 1-17-2003)

      In the past 3 years, the US, Taiwan's 2 major parties (KMT, DPP), and even prosecutors themselves have often slammed Taiwan's prosecutors as a political tool (see table below), in other words, Taiwan's prosecutors lack of working ethics and personality,  their inner conviction certainly should be reviewed and examined critically.

   Here is the case of abusing inner conviction ( beweiswurdigung, doctrine of discretional evaluation of evidence ) and misinterpreting an article of law, suspiciously !  by three prosecutors famous on mass media.

Case Study - brief
The defendant (accused), a server of Taiwan's 5 star American brand hotel restaurant, repeatedly sniffed loudly at two victims (dinning customers) in public.   The chief prosecutor and two prosecutors concluded the case "not to be prosecuted" merely by the defendant's facial appearance (a one-second smile) about 15 minutes after the crime was committed, on the video evidence DVD.    
Is this an abuse of free evaluation of evidence through inner conviction ?

The defendant (accused), a server of Taiwan's 5 star American brand hotel restaurant, repeatedly sniffed loudly at two victims (customers) in public while bringing a check them.   According to dictionary of Oxford, Cambridge,  Collins,Dr. eye, Dict.site and best Chinese dictionaries, "sniff at " expresses "contempt", and according to New York Times, Forbes, etc,  there's no way this will happen in world famous 5 star hotel restaurant or even in an average restaurant,  not to mention Taiwan was a "country of etiquette", therefore, it should be an intentional offense against reputation ( public insult, defamation or deliberate humiliation), most likely on political purpose.    

 

rules for restaurants

New York Times,
 10-29-2009

... gracefully, the less noise the better

... Do not compliment a guest's attire or hairdo or makeup, you're insulting someone else

... Don't gossip  ... within earshot of guests

... Don't have a personal conversation with another server within earshot of customers

... Never bring a check until someone asks for it, then give it to the person who asked for it

Forbes, 9-3-2012

... serve customers not annoy them

... it's a matter of being attentive and looking for signals

... when you bring the check, either wait a moment from a little distance... or come back right away

 

 

The argument earlier by the defendant about "sniff repeatedly at" customers is due to having a cold.   But on the Police Interrogation Transcript the defendant 'forgot' that and changed the excuse to be an " allergy".  (I'm sure the defendant did the crime intentionally, and she won't take a lie-detector test). 

 

Ignoring witness testament (testify the crime) and other evidences, without summoning the defendant to the court, the chief prosecutor and two prosecutors concluded the criminal case "not to prosecuted" merely by looking at the defendant's facial appearance (a one-second smile) showing on the DVD.    

 

One second's facial appearance includes (what prosecutors "think" so):

(1)  a smile.

(2)  no disdainful and mocking expression on the face.
 
Then,  prosecutors jumped to the conclusion -  no crime.

But ――  this short video image was taped by the victim about 15 minutes after the crime was committed.  The suspect's mood is different.

 

The mistakes that Taiwan's prosecutors made :

 

(1) Mistake 1 :  Chief prosecutor's and 2 prosecutors' inner conviction (doctrine of discretional evaluation of evidence) seems ridiculous !  
                         The facial expression now, might not be the same as that of 15 minutes ago.

 

(2) Mistake 2 :  A smile for one second can not prove innocence.   Lots criminals in Taiwan were making crimes with a smiling face (pls. see justice files below).

  crimes with smiles

1.  Tao-yuan courthouse, 2014 桃園地院刑事判決103年審易字 2436號, 103年偵字2034號公訴書明載,遭公然侮辱罪定罪之被告「面對面比中指大概三秒鐘,眼神是對著我們的, 而且還對著我們微笑」...
2. Taipei courthouse, 2010 台北地院刑事判決99年易字2283號明載,「觸摸A女下體,再前行數步後,復對A女注視並微笑...造成A女心生畏怖,感受冒犯,但不敢聲張... 以自鳴得意之姿,對女性尊嚴橫加踐踏」。
3. Kao-hsiung courthouse, 2018 高雄地院刑事判決107年易字 423號明載,「被告林秋菊於現場監視錄影畫面時間約11:33:53-54期間,竟突然以其右手朝被告汪瑞和比劃並微笑地說話,而於其出現笑容前後,均又以雙手朝被告汪瑞和做出雙手掌均以食指比1的動作一下,據此足認證人汪瑞和證述被告林秋菊此時又對其辱罵懶較長懶較短...」。
4. Kao-hsiung courthouse, 2011 高雄地院刑事判決100年易字 1158, 1159號明載,「在公共場所,對素不相似之被害人A女及B女,身體隱私處任意觸摸,其行徑大膽囂張,目無法紀...且於觸摸後尚對A女微笑,以其自鳴得意之姿...」。
5. Tai-Nan High court, 2010 高等法院台南分院99年上易字483號判決: 「你怎忍心對一風燭殘年的老同事,一再撻伐羞辱,而沾沾自喜呢?」
   

 

(3) Mistake 3 :  there're many different kinds of smiles, the defendant is a server in  5 star hotel restaurant, certainly wears an occupational fake smile all the time.    Besides, if a crime happens not for resentment or enmity, the victimizer ( probably just a tool or dog following political orders and knowing not too much ) won't show a hostile look. 

 

(4) Mistake 4 :  facial expression can be fake or be different by persons

     1.  Most major media reported at 3-20-2017 that Taiwan police conducted a routine check on the street, and got a suspect merely by his facial appearance ( probable strange light or mysterious gleam in the eyes), however, the "suspect" is a secretary of the state (cabinet minister of Taiwan).   Major media and a political party criticized Taiwan state apparatus should follow objective facts, evidences, not by their "experiences" or "inner conviction" (doctrine of discretional evaluation of evidence). 

     2.  Newsweek and New York Post reported at 9-7-2018 that the US regularly conducts lie detector tests on CIA, FBI etc 16 institutions, but similar polygraph machine functioned bad again and again in Taiwan because of human factors ―― subjective judgments, the polygraph test usually takes 38 ~ 130 minutes, one test (羅明村案) taking 9 minutes less resulted in a terrible mistake.   In contrast, the chief prosecutor and 2 prosecutors took only one second to subjectively concluded criminal case, if they really have this kind of magic "extra-sensory perception" , US president D. Trump will be happy to hire them with high pay to replace the lie detector machine, the saving costs can build a US-Mexico border wall.

     3.  It's easy to find some legal cases, e.g., Taipei court judgment (台北地院刑事判決99年易字3542號), that the criminal faked his facial expressions on the face of experts.

     4.   Not only criminals faked facial expressions, United Daily reported former president Chiang Kai-Shek (蔣中正) showed a very sad look on the memorial ceremony of Bai Chon-Xi (白崇禧), his political rival, but in the next day Chiang scolded severely Bai "the biggest guilty general for the loss of Chinese Civil War" .

 

 

(5) Mistake 5 :  According to DVDs (both April 2018 and June 2018), the defendant twice admitted sniffing at victim for having a cold, but later in police station changed the previous phrase to "it's for allergy".   Inconsistent statements prove the defendant to be a liar.      In any 5 star restaurants, the server should rest at home or have a mask on the face if having a bad illness, but the server did nothing, if it's not that bad, the server won't sniffed at victim repeatedly and loudly about once per one second for a long time (for the victim).   The prosecutors have not investigated the server's medical records.

        

(6) Mistake 6 :   The server studied in best dining & tourism university, and had working experience in another well-known hotel, how come has no basic knowledge or common sense the server should not sniff loudly at any customer, besides, the defendant asked and cashed infinite credit card from the victim too early - about 45 minutes after the restaurant opened.   This never happened in Euro., the US, other Asian countries , as well as Taiwan's other 5 star hotels I've been, e.g., Mandarin Oriental ... An article about rules for restaurants in The New York Times,  10-29-2009: " Never bring a check until someone asks for it".

 

(7) Mistake 7 :   There're some other similar or same actions (sniff) in the 5 star hotel and other places (including gov.) against the victim, a foreigner testified this at the police station and another suit case was brought to the court already.   Does any one believe more than one server in world famous hotel restaurant repeatedly sniffed at customers?

 

This case, most likely, is part of an accomplice structure, or systematic crimes, political oppressions upon me.  Particularly the crime scene is a widely known landmark of White-Terror era   It's very ironic if any today's high-ranking power trying to advocate transitional justice on one hand, but  to politicize a legal case on the other hand.   

Please ref. to the victim's article concerning "political oppression or persecutions in Taiwan" (No.1 rankings on US Bing, Google, Yahoo, Euro. MetaGER, Russia Yandex...), it's within reason to believe that this case is part of political plots.    For exact meanings pls. read Chinese version.

 My comments

 

According to the chief prosecutor's and two prosecutors' official documents, one among 3 main reasons not to charge the defendant is that the victim did not show any unhappy feeling and expression after being insulted repeatedly (see pic. above).   This apparently is a mistake made by chief prosecutor and two prosecutors all on mass media before,   because, according to Taiwan's criminal law, even the victim does not understand or correctly interpret the humiliation (defamation, public insult which is similar to American Laws around libel & slander), the victimizer is still guilty.

Are they trying to deliver some hidden messages ?
There's no doubt the prosecutors has not made clear the facts.   Is there any more doubtful points in prosecutors' processing procedure?   Legal experts around the world can find out the hidden truth.
