近些年来，随着大众传媒的发达，某些刑事案件由于媒体的报道迅速成为社会热点问题，从而形成舆论影响司法审判的印象。然而，无论是通过社会舆论表现出来的“民情”还是“民愤”，都是法官在量刑过程中应当考虑的民意。文章通过逻辑分析和实证研究的方法，从法理和司法实践的角度阐明了民意作为量刑依据的正当性，提出这种民意应当是普通民众在充分了解案情的前提下根据朴素的正义观念、善恶标准和道德情感对被告人应当如何接受刑事惩罚所形成的意见。文章提出，合理的民意应当具备三个方面特征：为“公益”而非“私益”；为“公意”而非“众意”；为“常情”而非“矫情”。

In recent years, some criminal cases became hot social issues due to the media coverage to form the impression that public opinions can affect the justice. However, whether the"public sympathy"or the"public anger"is the public opinion should be considered by judges in measurement of penalty. The authors clarify the legitimacy of public opinion as a basis for sentencing from the perspective of jurisprudence and judicial prac-tice by methods of logical analysis and empirical research. The conclusion is that public opinions in measure-ment of penalty should be ordinary people's views on how to punish the criminal defendant in accordance with the concept of justice, standards of good and evil, and moral feelings on the premise of fully understanding of the case. The authors propose that reasonable public opinions should have three characteristics:the"public good"rather than"private interest";as"general will"rather than"public opinion";as"common sense"rather than"hypocritical sense".
