被告三人於東沙海域等待接運毒品時遭海巡攔截,查獲海洛因、大麻等總重近600公斤毒品。
李姓中國船員涉運輸一級毒品,因害怕被判死刑不敢認罪,直到一審判無期徒刑才改口求饒,他與孫姓船長、侯姓船員走私近600公斤毒品,在東沙海域被攔截,台南高分院二審改判李男19年6月、侯男16年6月,孫男維持17年。
檢警調查,孫男等人在東沙海域等待接運毒品時被海巡攔截,船上搜出498塊海洛因、399包大麻、15包硝甲西泮及17包混合安非他命的白色粉末,總重近600公斤。台南地院一審依運輸第一級毒品罪,判處認罪的船長孫男17年、負責煮飯的侯男17年6月,始終否認的李男則被重判無期徒刑。
李男見一審被判無期徒刑,上訴二審連忙改口認罪。他向法官哭訴,一審是因為太害怕被判死刑才不敢承認,自己只有小學畢業,一時糊塗犯案,約定每月1萬元的薪水根本沒領到,家裡還有3名未成年子女及年邁父母要扶養,請求法官從輕量刑。
同案的侯男也上訴喊冤,表示受李男邀約上船只負責煮飯,因證件被上游「代理」扣走、遭老闆逼迫才聽命,加上母親替他擔心哭泣患眼疾、妻子罹癌,希望再減刑。孫男則主張在看守所羈押期間罹患多種疾病、視力變差,且積極供出毒品來源,請求減刑。
二審合議庭認為,李男只是聽命行事的船員,毒品在海上被攔截未流入台灣,上訴後已認罪,判無期徒刑太重,改判19年6月。侯男在去年9月第一次警詢就認罪,符合自白減刑,改判16年6月;孫男身為船長非邊緣角色,海巡署台南查緝隊也證實他供出的上游毫無具體線索,因此駁回上訴。
