基隆市黃姓男子去年9月被警方查獲1把模擬槍,黃男偵審時均坦承持有,被檢方依黃男違反槍砲彈藥刀械管制條例起訴。不料,案件進入法院審理後出現大逆轉,基隆地方法院發現,負責鑑識的警方人員在鑑定模擬槍前,境未依法簽署「具結文」,致該份鑑定報告失去證據能力;在排除鑑定資料後,只剩黃男單一自白,缺乏補強證據,依法判決黃男無罪。
判決指出,檢方起訴主張,黃姓男子明知具類似真槍外型、構造與擊發機構,且足以改造成具殺傷力的模擬槍已於2024年1月間公告查禁,竟仍在網路上向不詳賣家購買1把模擬槍持有。警方去年9月23日上午8時許,持基隆地院核發的搜索票至黃男住處搜索,當場查扣該把模擬槍;訊後將黃男依未經許可持有公告查禁模擬槍罪嫌起訴。
法院審理時,黃男坦承持有該把扣案模擬槍,甚至當庭表示警方出具的模擬槍初步檢視紀錄表及鑑定函文具有證據能力,但法官檢視卷證時卻發現重大程序瑕疵。
法官指出,依刑事訴訟法規定,機關實施鑑定之人在鑑定前依法必須「具結」,否則該鑑定意見不得作為證據;即便當事人事後同意該書面報告有證據能力,也僅是免除鑑定人到庭陳述,並不能免除鑑定前必須具結的法定義務。
法院再函詢基隆市警察局確認後,證實本案鑑定資料並未附有鑑定人於鑑定前依法具結的結文,也無從認定鑑定人曾依法具結,因此該份鑑定報告依法失去證據能力,必須排除。法官認為,排除鑑定資料後,卷內僅剩黃男的自白,並無其他補強證據可證明扣案槍枝確屬公告查禁的模擬槍,依無罪推定原則,判決黃男無罪。可上訴。
