[Reporter Xie Junlin/Taipei Report] Supervisory committee members Lin Guoming and Cai Chongyi investigated the murder of two police officers in Tainan City by a prisoner surnamed Lin in the Mingde Foreign Service Prison, and found that the Correction Department and its affiliated Mingde Foreign Service Prison, Tainan Prison, and Tainan District Prosecutor's Office , the National Police Administration, and the Tainan City Government Police Department have deficiencies in the implementation of relevant important businesses. The proposal is corrected, and the relevant dereliction of duty personnel are required to be dealt with.

In addition to requesting the Executive Yuan to supervise and order their subordinates to review and improve, the two supervisory committees also asked the procuratorial organs to investigate the relevant evidence such as "the police driving recorder and the non-perpetrator's video at the time of the suspected exodus case" and referred them to the Ministry of the Interior. Supervise and order the dereliction of duty personnel of the subordinate review department. In addition, the section "Issuance of contact records related to the case and whether the callee is involved in colluding with an accomplice" is also sent to the Ministry of Justice for transfer to the subordinate procuratorial agency for continued investigation of the case.

The Prison Court reviewed the contact records of Lin Yuan’s mother and the case personnel and found that on the day Lin Yu did not return, the Mingde Foreign Service Prison immediately contacted and notified the Southern Inspection. The date of execution of the prosecutor’s authorization based on the law exceeded the power of the prosecutor, and he did not report to the prosecutor or ask the prosecutor to make a decision in person, violating the provisions of the penalty execution manual, and did not take the initiative to confirm the actual situation of the visit to the Mingde Foreign Service Prison until the police were arrested. At the time of the killing, the arrest warrant was not released for the first time in 7 days, which caused regret. It not only damaged the image of the procuratorate, but also violated the regulations for a long time. After the incident, all the prosecutor's authorization stamps held by the clerk with no source of evidence were taken back.

The investigation pointed out that, according to the prosecutors of the Southern Prosecutor’s Enforcement Section, all local prosecutors’ offices across the country have this mode of operation. The official document has not been notified to the correctional agency, and it is also inconsistent with the regulations on the matters that the procuratorial agency should pay attention to in handling wanted cases. The relevant implementation aspects have not been fully implemented, and there are also violations.

The investigation found that the current qualification review conditions for the selection of foreign service prisons are loose, and the review mechanism for legal norms and preliminary and review review is not perfect. There were still 6 years, 5 months and 10 days of crippled sentences. The crippled sentences were too long, and the escape risk factor was high. The Corrections Department of the Ministry of Justice and its affiliated Tainan Prison and other relevant enforcement agencies selected forest officers for foreign service prisons. , it is difficult to match the purpose of the foreign service prison system, it is difficult to conform to the social concept, and it is also contrary to the legislative intent of the Prison Execution Law and the Foreign Service Prison Regulations.

Two supervisory committee members said that after the Lin staff failed to return on August 15 this year, the Mingde Foreign Service Prison also failed to notify the police at the residence of the escaped prisoner; It was not implemented, and the relevant coordination and search mechanism was not comprehensive enough, resulting in the killing of two police officers. The relevant competent and supervisory agencies did not face up to the gaps in the selection mechanism, and took positive actions based on their rights and responsibilities. There is a major breach.
