PS.LIVE INVESTIGATION: The Appeal Hearing of 17 Defendants in the Yu Menglong Murder Case Exposes a Deepening Web of Cover-Ups.
The world is watching with bated breath as the appeal trial of the 17 defendants accused of murdering actor Yu Menglong has erupted into a storm of revelations, allegations of corruption, and a confession so shocking it sent social media into meltdown.
Today’s hearing — broadcast live for the first time since the case began — has not only reopened the wounds of a beloved artist’s death, but also lifted the curtain on hidden forces that may have manipulated the truth from the very beginning.
A Courtroom Filled With Tension
From the moment the session opened, the atmosphere inside the high court felt electrically charged. Family members, investigators, journalists, and millions watching online sensed that something was about to break.
As the 17 defendants were brought in — some trembling, some stone-faced — the presiding judge warned:
“This court will not tolerate deception. Every false word spoken today will be exposed.”
Observers say the judge’s stern tone signaled that the appeal hearing was not merely a procedural review, but a reckoning.
The First Shock: A Confession That Should Have Come Years Ago
The courtroom exploded when one of the key defendants, long considered a minor accomplice, suddenly changed his testimony.
Breaking down in tears, he declared:
“We were told what to say. We were told whom to protect. If we spoke the truth, we would be ‘taken care of’ next.”
This single statement shifted the entire direction of the hearing.
For the first time, it suggested openly that the murder was not an isolated act, but part of a coordinated cover-up involving money, intimidation, and powerful individuals who had yet to be named.
Online communities immediately erupted, with hashtags trending globally:
- #JusticeForYuMenglong
- #17Defendants
- #ExposeTheCoverUp
Hidden Forces Begin to Surface
Multiple excerpts from the interrogation, now public, showed glaring inconsistencies between earlier testimonies and the new confessions.
Investigators hinted at three major red flags:
1. Suspicious Financial Transfers
Bank records show several defendants received large sums of money — deposits made days before and after the murder. The origin of these funds remains unclear, but investigators confirmed that none of the payers have been charged.
2. Evidence Manipulation
During cross-examination, one defendant admitted that they were ordered to dispose of certain objects and “modify” the crime scene.
Who issued those orders?
When questioned, the defendant only replied:
“You already know who.”
3. Pressure From “Higher-Ups”
Several defendants claimed they were offered leniency, protection, or anonymity if they agreed to a coordinated version of the story.
One defendant described being threatened with harm to his family if he refused.
This has led to widespread belief that the original investigation was compromised.
Public Outrage Reaches a Breaking Point
Outside the courthouse, crowds gathered chanting:
“Bring the truth out! Bring the truth out!”
“No more lies!”
Online, millions demanded that the authorities reveal the identities of the individuals behind the alleged cover-up.
Editorials across Asia and Europe questioned:
- Why did it take years for these confessions to surface?
- Who suppressed the evidence?
- How deep does the conspiracy go?
The court confirmed through official statements that the investigation is now expanding beyond the 17 defendants.
Yu Menglong’s Family Breaks Silence
For the first time since the appeal began, Yu Menglong’s family appeared before reporters. His mother, visibly shaken but resolute, said:
“My son did not die because of one moment of violence.
He died because too many people protected the guilty.”
Her words surged across social media, igniting renewed demands for accountability.
What Happens Next?
Legal analysts predict:
- More arrests could follow.
- Several investigators from the original case may face disciplinary hearings.
- The unnamed “higher forces” could soon be summoned for questioning.
Meanwhile, the court has announced that tomorrow’s session will include full confrontation interrogation — where each defendant must answer direct accusations from the others.
Viewership for the live broadcast is expected to break national records.
A Nation Watching for Justice
Today was not just a court hearing — it was a turning point.
For years, the death of Yu Menglong has been surrounded by rumors, inconsistencies, and unanswered questions. But now, with the confessions unfolding and the power networks behind the scenes starting to crack, the truth seems closer than ever.
As the judge ended the session, he declared:
“This court will pursue the truth until the last shadow is gone.”
The world now waits — watching, questioning, and hoping that justice will finally prevail.
