If the defendant refuses to plead guilty, will "zero confession" be sentenced?

Article 55 of the Criminal Procedure Law stipulates: "If only the defendant confesses and there is no other evidence, the defendant cannot be found guilty and punished; If there is no confession from the defendant and the evidence is true and sufficient, the defendant can be found guilty and punished. " In other words, whether the defendant can be found guilty depends on the evidence of the whole case. If there is only a confession, no true and reliable witness testimony and no other objective evidence to support it, the defendant cannot be found guilty. If there is no confession, but there is other evidence, and other sources of evidence are legal, and the cross-examination evidence is indeed sufficient, the defendant can still be found guilty.

The defendant refused to plead guilty.

As long as evidence can be obtained: there is evidence to prove that the behavior committed by the criminal suspect is a crime and what kind of punishment is needed; The evidence used for conviction has been verified by legal procedures; Other reasonable doubts have been ruled out about the identified criminal facts. Meet the requirements of reliable and sufficient evidence. Even if he refuses to plead guilty without recanting his confession, he should be punished according to law.

Although it is said that the punishment can be customized by not pleading guilty, a case of not pleading guilty will inevitably increase the difficulty of detecting the case. In criminal cases, I think the confession belongs to flawed direct evidence, that is to say, although the relevant criminal facts can be directly obtained from the confession, whether the confession can be adopted depends on whether some other evidence can be fixed to prove the authenticity of the confession. For example, in a murder case, a corpse or a criminal tool is found on the basis of a confession, then these physical evidence and the confession confirm each other, and then the confession strengthened by the evidence can be used as evidence to identify the facts of the crime.
