At the crossroads of life, the 'chemical boy' became a link in the chain of drug production
2025-05-29
In August 2023, a private message from a stranger changed everything - a netizen asked Xiaonan to purchase chemical raw materials under the guise of wanting to conduct experiments. Until the police came knocking on the door, Xiaonan suddenly realized that he had become a link in the chain of drug production. Xiao Nan (pseudonym), who should have been fully preparing for the college entrance examination, never expected that her passion for chemistry would intersect with the drug manufacturing case. It was not until the police appeared at Xiaonan's doorstep that this slightly darker skinned and honest looking young man realized he had crossed the legal red line. For over a year, Xiao Nan's worries about her future fate left her restless and even suffering from mild depression. He asked himself countless times: Can I still take the college entrance examination? Can my life still go on a normal track? It was not until April this year that Yang Yi, a prosecutor from the Laocheng District Prosecutor's Office in Luoyang, Henan Province, who was thousands of miles away, came to Shenzhen, Guangdong and read him a conditional non prosecution decision. After signing a joint assistance agreement with the local prosecutor's office, Xiaonan's anxious heart finally relaxed - he could finally focus on studying and participate in his life exam. He, who loves chemistry, has become a part of the drug manufacturing chain. Xiao Nan, who grew up with his parents in Shenzhen, has been fascinated by chemistry since middle school. The molecular structure, reaction principles, and complex chemical equations have left him addicted. Due to his excellent chemistry grades, he also served as the chemistry class representative in the class. In her first year of high school, Xiaonan used her saved pocket money to purchase experimental equipment online, set up a "home laboratory" on her balcony, and uploaded some esterification reaction experiment videos to social media to spread chemical knowledge, gradually accumulating many fans. In August 2023, a private message from a stranger changed everything - a netizen asked Xiaonan to purchase chemical raw materials under the guise of wanting to conduct experiments. Xiaonan's family conditions are average, with his father working in a factory and his mother taking care of him and his 4-year-old brother at home. In order to supplement household expenses, although Xiaonan knew that chemicals such as hydrochloric acid and toluene were subject to national control, she still purchased more than 200 kilograms of hydrochloric acid, toluene and other chemicals for him according to the address provided by the other party without obtaining a permit for the operation of precursor chemicals, and profited more than 3000 yuan from it. To Xiaonan's surprise, this "studious" netizen set up a drug making laboratory in a rented house in the old city area of Luoyang, purchased drug making tutorials and raw materials online, synthesized the new drug etomidate for personal use, and resold it to others. Until the police came knocking on the door, Xiaonan suddenly realized that he had become a link in the chain of drug production. In December 2024, the case was transferred to the Old City District Prosecutor's Office for examination and prosecution, posing a difficult problem for prosecutors. When Yang Yi first met Xiao Nan, the young man had been exhausted from months of psychological pressure. According to social surveys, Xiaonan has excellent academic performance and treats people sincerely. Both teachers and classmates have high evaluations of him; According to the family background investigation, Xiaonan's father worked to support the family, while his mother was busy taking care of her young son. Although she knew about the chemistry experiment, she never asked in detail, which ultimately led to a big mistake. We only hope to give our child a chance to reform... "Xiaonan's mother choked up and pleaded with Yang Yi. Yang Yi is well aware that this decision will affect the direction of the young man's life - if prosecuted, Xiaonan will not only face criminal punishment, but also lose her qualification for the college entrance examination; If not prosecuted, a balance needs to be found between judicial fairness and educational rescue. After a comprehensive review, the Laocheng District Procuratorate believes that Xiaonan meets the conditions for non prosecution: surrendering, being a minor at the time of the crime, voluntarily returning the stolen goods and admitting guilt and punishment, and having no subjective malicious participation in the drug manufacturing chain. After reporting to the higher-level procuratorial organs and holding a non-public hearing, the court made a conditional non prosecution decision against Xiao Nan in accordance with the law, and set an eight month probation period. However, how to ensure the effectiveness of the assistance has become a difficult problem for Yang Yi - Xiaonan is about to take the college entrance examination, and if he is required to frequently travel to Luoyang for supervision and inspection, it will inevitably affect his preparation, and his family's economic situation will also be difficult to support his cross provincial travel. In response, the Old City District Procuratorate initiated a remote assistance program and proactively contacted the Guangming District Procuratorate in Shenzhen to propose a remote entrusted assistance plan. On the morning of April 20th, Yang Yi and his colleagues boarded a flight to Shenzhen with a special "exam paper" for the judicial relay spanning 1500 kilometers. This' exam paper 'is a two-way journey that concerns the warmth of justice and the future of youth. In order to reduce interference with Xiaonan's exam preparation, Yang Yi specially scheduled the time for the weekend. During the home visit, Xiaonan's father tightly held Yang Yi's hand and said, "We are also responsible for the child's mistakes. Thank you for giving him the opportunity..." "After comprehensive consideration, we plan to make a conditional decision not to sue you. We hope you can put down your psychological pressure and focus on preparing for the exam. ”Yang Yi's words immediately made Xiao Nan shed tears, and she nodded solemnly. The next day, at the Juvenile Prosecution Studio of Guangming District Procuratorate in Shenzhen, the prosecutor read out the conditional non prosecution decision on site. The procuratorial organs, judicial social workers, Xiao Nan and her father from both places jointly signed a conditional non prosecution supervision and inspection agreement. Subsequently, the procuratorial organs customized a "preparation+guidance" plan for Xiaonan and coordinated with judicial social workers to provide him with pre exam psychological counseling on the spot. At the end of the teaching ceremony, Yang Yi took out a notebook prepared in advance from his briefcase and gave it to Xiao Nan: "Life is like a chemical experiment. Occasional mistakes are not terrible, the important thing is to find the right reaction conditions." Xiao Nan held the notebook and her eyes turned red. "Prosecutor Uncle, I will cherish the opportunity you give me, study hard, get into the ideal university, become the pride of my parents, and not disappoint your expectations!" Cotton wool outside the window swayed gently in the wind, and sunlight shone through the glass on the school emblem on the boy's chest. This judicial relay that crosses mountains and seas finally brings lost youth back to the track. (New Society)
