Not long ago, Zhang Yuhuan received the new mobile phone that Song Xiaonv bought him to help him adapt to life, which made him feel "as if he was back to the old scene when the couple were together."
And Song Xiaonv talked about her contribution to Zhang Yuhuan over the years, and said firmly: "A woman, for the sake of her children, for her husband, can work hard, I am not afraid."

  5 Brother Zhang Yuhuan: Zhang Yuhuan is in good spirits

  Zhang Yuhuan’s brother, Zhang Minqiang, said that Zhang Yuhuan had been out of touch with society for too long. When he left, he still rode a bicycle at home and didn’t even have a mobile phone.
According to Zhang Minqiang, Zhang Yuhuan is not as good at electronic products as two or three-year-old children. "Yesterday, he just started to learn to use a mobile phone. I felt so sad when he posted a video. He didn't know how to use it. He put it to his ear to listen. I looked so distressed. I wanted to walk away, so he grabbed my hand and wouldn’t let me go. When I looked at him, I thought of my two-year-old granddaughter. The videos of her and dad are very smooth. Zhang Yuhuan has a two-year-old child. Not as good."

  Zhang Yuhuan has difficulty adapting to society: like a newborn needs a little education

  Zhang Yuhuan woke up before 6 o'clock in the morning on August 6. He fumbled for the placement of toothbrushes, toothpaste, towels and other daily necessities at home. His son Zhang Baogang told him patiently, but when he turned his head, his father seemed to have forgotten. Zhang Yuhuan said that it may be because there were too many things just going home, or because he was "inside" for too long, his memory after coming out has deteriorated.
He took a small piece of cardboard and used round beads to write down the names of his daughter-in-law and grandchildren one by one. He couldn't remember the names of his daughter-in-law and grandchildren one by one.
Before Zhang Yuhuan went home, his two sons Baoren and Baogang had negotiated to buy a smart phone for his father so that he could video with his grandchildren far away. On the first day home, Zhang Yuhuan learned to call under the guidance of his son. Bao Gang stored the phone numbers of all his relatives in the family in advance: Minqiang, Xiaofan, Xiaonu, Baoren... from
Nanchang. In August, the heat was hard and the old house did not have air conditioning. Bao Gang let his father blow the electric fan to enjoy the coolness. Zhang Yuhuan stared at the electric fan and asked curiously: "How can this fan shake his head?" The
nearly 27 years of jail was as sharp as hell. A knife separated Zhang Yuhuan from modern society, and his thinking seemed to remain in 1993 before the accident. He told Zhang Baogang that the most important thing was to solve the housing problem. He planned to spend 20,000 to 30,000 yuan to build a new house on the foundation of the old house. Zhang Baogang smiled helplessly, "Dad, now it costs hundreds of thousands to build a house in the countryside."
"Ah, hundreds of thousands?" Zhang Yuhuan looked at his son in surprise, as if hearing astronomical figures.
Zhang Baogang said that his father just came out, just like a newborn, he needs to teach him a little bit, "When he knows that he doesn't make money now, he will change his mind." He and his brother plan to take turns over a year. "Accompany" his father until he adapts to life after he comes out.

  The court explained the three major reasons for changing the sentence

  After Zhang Yuhuan submitted a criminal complaint to the Jiangxi Higher People's Court on August 22, 2017, the Jiangxi Higher People's Court made a retrial decision on March 1, 2019, and a public hearing was held on July 9, 2020.
  During the retrial process, Zhang Yuhuan and his defense attorney proposed that Zhang Yuhuan’s guilty confession was caused by torture, the material evidence in the case could not be related to the victim or the criminal facts, there were contradictions between the main evidence, and the original trial was to protect the defendant’s right to defense, etc. Violation of legal proceedings, affecting fair trial, etc.
  In the retrial judgment, the Jiangxi Provincial Higher People's Court held that the facts that Zhang Yuhuan committed in the original trial were unclear and the evidence was insufficient. According to the principle of "no suspected crime", Zhang Yuhuan cannot be found guilty. The Jiangxi Provincial Higher People's Court listed the reasons for changing Zhang Yuhuan’s innocence:
  First, the sacks and hemp ropes used as tools for the crime were found to be unrelated to the case or Zhang Yuhuan; the original trial found that the victim scratched the back of Zhang Yuhuan’s hand on the basis of human injuries The inspection certificate can only prove that scratches can be formed by hand scratching, and are not exclusive;
  second, the first crime scene identified by the original trial, the public security organs did not find or extract any evidence related to the case during the on-site investigation;
  third, Zhang Yuhuan’s two guilty confessions had obvious contradictions in the location of the murder, the tools of the crime, and the process of the crime. The truthfulness of the confession was doubtful and could not be used as a basis for
  conviction . The presiding judge Tian Ganlin stated that there was no direct evidence to prove the case except for Zhang Yuhuan’s guilty confession. Zhang Yuhuan committed a criminal act, and indirect evidence could not form a complete chain.
