“How could Li Bodao not let her go? I really can’t see what kind of person he is.” said the official who handled the corruption and bullying case against Li Bodao, the president of the Correctional Court, before the Judicial Yuan launched an investigation.
The official could not believe that the highest-ranking dean, who was appointed by the president and was in charge of the punishment of civil servants in the country, with a monthly salary of more than NT$300,000, could have such a bad record, including corruption, sexual harassment and workplace bullying. He sighed. It was beyond everyone’s expectations.
The Taipei District Prosecutor’s Office has listed Li Bodao as a defendant on corruption charges and is tracing the flow of the gift certificates he bought with special fees.
According to the investigation of this magazine, Li Bodao most often made sarcastic remarks to his subordinates when asking for leave. The closer colleagues were, the more difficult it was for them to ask for leave. Some colleagues could not stand Li’s verbal bullying and could not sleep at night, but they dared not speak out. In the disciplinary court, Forming “one court, two worlds”, Li was highly regarded in the eyes of his fellow judges, but not in the eyes of his colleagues who were not judges. Someone from the disciplinary court once described the situation under Li Bodao’s administration as “dire straits” to this publication. Punishment Court.
The Punishment Court has 10 judges, 2 preferential judges, and about 40 officials, section chiefs, clerks, drivers, and co-workers who do not have the status of judges. People familiar with the matter revealed that Li Bodao faced those who had the status of judicial officers. He looks like a good senior with an amiable and humble attitude. He speaks softly and smiles. However, he has a harsh attitude towards nearly 40 colleagues who are not judicial officers and is very intimidating.
Among the 40 people who were not judges in the Correctional Court, at least five were bullied by Li Bodao, mostly when they were on leave. The Judicial Yuan determined that workplace bullying was involved and formed a task force to investigate and found that the bullying case was indeed true. Fan Lida, the husband of the victim in the sexual harassment case, once posted on Facebook, saying that Li Bodao hated administrative staff asking for leave. He often made things difficult for department heads when asking for leave. One official only took 7 hours of leave in a whole year, and it was divided into four hours and four hours. 2 hours and 1 hour three times. After this official was bullied and made things difficult when he asked for leave, he worked overtime every day the next year, no longer asked for leave, and did not declare overtime pay.

According to the investigation data of the Judicial Yuan, a supervisor of the Correctional Court originally asked Li Bodao for a day off to accompany his parents to visit their graves, but Li Bodao teased him face to face and said: “Who would use the week to sweep their graves? Aren’t you going to educate your parents?” ? To sweep the grave, you have to use the holiday to do it!” The supervisor finally couldn’t help but retort: ”Dean! I won’t ask for leave, this is okay, right?” But Li still kept saying sour words.
In addition to supervisors being bullied by Li Bodao, even the most junior workers and drivers were also victims. Among them, a staff member was responsible for managing Li Bodao’s office affairs. He was careful and responsible, very dedicated, and was highly recognized by his colleagues, but he was bullied by Li Bodao. , suffered physical and mental blows.
Another person who was made difficult by Li Bodao was the former accounting director of the Correctional Court. According to the information obtained by the Judicial Yuan, this accounting director had different opinions with Li because of his strict accounting management, and they had a lot of friction with each other. He has served in the system for many years and his performance and reputation are both good. He was originally scheduled to retire honorably at the Correctional Court, but was transferred to the Supreme Court without warning and was deeply affected. In addition, a supervisor at the Correctional Court had to take leave to take care of someone in his family who was sick, but was criticized by Li Unable to set an example for his colleagues, this supervisor could not bear to be approved for transfer, but Li suppressed the transfer order for nearly two months.
In addition, Li Bodao’s driver had to take leave to take care of his father because of his serious illness, but Li did not allow him to take leave. So forget it, and said sarcastically: “Who has no parents?” “Don’t you have any other brothers and sisters in your family who can take care of you?” Why should you go?”
The Judicial Yuan contacted the relevant parties in the bullying case one by one. Although two of them expressed no intention to appeal due to factors such as being transferred, the Judicial Yuan still kept complete records to avoid repeating the mistakes of sexual harassment cases that seriously damaged judicial prestige. Because the person did not file a complaint within one year of the incident, the legal statute of limitations was not established. A total of 2 cases were determined by the Judicial Yuan to constitute workplace bullying, which caused physical and mental trauma to colleagues. They have been transferred to the judge evaluation committee for evaluation. If the evaluation is established, Li Bodao may He was then transferred to the Prison Court for impeachment, and then went to the Punishment Court to hear how to deal with him.
