Chapter 407 Drowning Case
The case happened three years ago.
On June 28, three years ago, someone reported the case to Yongsheng Swimming Pool.
A customer drowned in the pool.
The case happened within the jurisdiction of the Detective First Squadron, and the then captain Li Hong led the team to respond.
The file records the situation at the time in great detail.
The drowned man was Li Fenglin, male, 51 years old.
He was the owner of a massage parlor.
Li Hong and his team did a very detailed background investigation of the deceased.
Li Fenglin had opened a coal mine in another province in his early years and accumulated a considerable fortune.
Ten years ago, because the coal industry began to be sluggish, Li Fenglin sold the coal mine and left the province and returned to Liancheng.
After that, he opened a massage parlor.
Li Fenglin's wife was Zhao Linmeng, who was 28 years old at the time, and the two were remarried.
When Li Fenglin died, the two had been married for less than two years.
Li Fenglin and his ex-wife had a son named Li Qiang, who was 30 years old at the time.
According to the records in the file, the process of the case was very simple and detailed.
Li Fenglin arrived at Yongsheng Swimming Pool at 12 noon on June 28.
There was a surveillance video at the entrance of the swimming pool, which recorded the specific time when Li Fenglin entered the swimming pool.
After entering the swimming pool, Li Fenglin went into the locker room and changed into a swimsuit.
There was no video in the locker room, but there were four surveillance cameras installed around the swimming pool of the swimming pool.
The entire swimming pool can be said to be presented in the surveillance equipment without blind spots.
At 12:28, Li Fenglin changed his clothes and came out of the locker room.
Go directly to the swimming pool.
In the video, it can be clearly seen that Li Fenglin did about ten minutes of warm-up exercises from the locker room of the swimming pool to the front of the swimming pool.
In the middle, Li Fenglin chatted with his swimming fitness coach for a while.
After that, Li Fenglin went down to the swimming pool and started swimming.
Because the incident happened on Monday, there were fewer people swimming.
There are 16 swimming lanes in the entire swimming pool, but only seven people are swimming.
Each person is in a separate swimming lane.
There were nine people at the scene in the swimming pool management at the time.
In addition to the seven swimmers including Li Fenglin, there was also a swimming coach and a lifeguard.
Li Fenglin came out of the locker room at 12:28, did a ten-minute warm-up exercise, and the time he entered the water was shown on the monitoring at 12:38.
After entering the water, Li Fenglin first swam breaststroke for more than ten minutes.
Then he started backstroke.
At 13:15, he left the pool and went to the vending machine beside the pool to buy a bottle of water.
Maybe he was really thirsty. The case file records that Li Fenglin drank the whole bottle of water in one gulp.
Then he entered the water again.
Moreover, from the video, we can see that Li Fenglin dived into the pool this time.
When Li Fenglin entered the water for the second time, the swimming coach was next to Li Fenglin and took a look at Li Fenglin who jumped into the pool.
According to the coach's explanation, he thought Li Fenglin was practicing diving at the time, so Li Fenglin didn't care after he dived in.
At this time, the lifeguard who was originally sitting on the observation bench just climbed down from the bench when Li Fenglin entered the water.
He came to the corner of the swimming pool and took out a bottle of water. After drinking a few sips, he returned to the observation bench again.
This time was very short, only about two minutes.
But something happened within these two minutes.
Li Fenglin just dived into the swimming pool and never surfaced again.
It was the lifeguard who first discovered something was wrong. Why was there suddenly one less person swimming in the swimming lane?
"Coach Zhang, has the student you led finished swimming? Why is he missing?"
This is the original video footage in the surveillance video.
When lifeguard Yang Linsheng found something wrong, he immediately asked coach Zhang Hong.
Zhang Hong, who reacted, immediately jumped into the swimming pool.
However, it was too late at this time.
When lifeguard Yang Linsheng saw Zhang Hong jump into the swimming pool, he immediately climbed down the observation bench and jumped into the swimming pool at the same time.
Three minutes later, the two worked together to lift Li Fenglin out of the swimming pool.
Among the six people swimming nearby, one climbed out of the pool, ran to the locker room, took out his cell phone and called the police and the emergency number.
The time at this time was 13:21.
After Yang Linsheng and Zhang Hong carried Li Fenglin out of the pool, they immediately started cardiopulmonary resuscitation.
The whole time lasted for 12 minutes.
Until the ambulance arrived.
However, it was too late. Li Fenglin was already dead when he was carried out of the pool. Yang Linsheng and Zhang Hong's non-stop cardiopulmonary resuscitation could not save his life.
Then, Li Hong led the team to the scene.
The body was inspected on the spot.
The file recorded it like this.
"There was foam in the mouth and nose of the body, and the skin was chicken skin."
"The deceased's pupils were equal in size and round, the cornea was transparent, and the pupils showed obvious signs of dilation."
"The rigor mortis appeared early, the livor mortis was light in color, and the skin was pale."
All the signs of the body proved that this was a very typical drowning death.
Moreover, the entire process of Li Fenglin's drowning was recorded by surveillance video, without any omissions.
Basically, it can be determined that this is just an accidental death.
Later, we just need to contact the family of the deceased, and they will discuss compensation with the swimming pool.
However, the final development of the case has changed.
The parents of the deceased Li Fenglin had long passed away.
The only living relatives are his wife Zhao Linmeng and son Li Qiang.
Zhao Linmeng has no other opinions on Li Fenglin's death.
He advocated the division of civil compensation responsibilities with the swimming pool.
But Li Fenglin's son Li Qiang disagreed.
According to the records in the file, Li Qiang believed that his father could not have drowned for no reason.
The reason is that Li Fenglin has been learning swimming in this swimming pool for five years.
His swimming skills are very good.
Last year, he also won the third place in the swimming competition held by Yongsheng Swimming Pool.
So he thought that his father could not have drowned in a normal swimming process.
Li Qiang insisted on performing an autopsy on Li Fenglin's body.
Since it was a strong request from relatives, Li Hong naturally could not refuse.
However, something went wrong during the autopsy.
During the autopsy, traces of Li Fenglin's ribs and sternum fractures were found.
There will be no problem with this.
Li Fenglin was carried out of the swimming pool by lifeguards and swimming coaches, and cardiopulmonary resuscitation was performed on him continuously.
If the cardiopulmonary resuscitation is performed with great force, it will generally cause certain damage to the sternum and ribs, and may even cause damage to the liver or lungs.
Li Fenglin's internal organs were not damaged, but there were some fractures and cracks in the sternum and ribs, which were not a big problem.
There was a large amount of fluid in the lungs and stomach, which were consistent with the characteristics of drowning.
However, in addition to this, the detective in charge of the autopsy found excessive keratinization and peeling on the palms and soles of Li Fenglin's body.
At the same time, there were tiny grain-like keratin protrusions at the base of Li Fenglin's fingers.
Some of the particles have skin damage and are ulcerated.
This is not simple.
This thing is not a skin disease.
It is arsenic carbuncle!
Or it is called arsenic carbuncle.
It is a characteristic manifestation of arsenic poisoning.
And the so-called arsenic poisoning is actually arsenic poisoning.
Li Fenglin was actually suffering from chronic arsenic poisoning.
In addition to the above characteristics, chronic arsenic poisoning can also cause many complications, one of the most important of which is muscle spasm!
Afterwards, the autopsy detective dissected Li Fenglin's limbs.
There was a more direct discovery!
