In China, the reform of the system of lifelong responsibility for the quality of handling cases and the system of accountability for wrongful cases, which requires “whoever handles cases shall be responsible and whoever breaks the law shall bear the responsibility”, has been highly expected by all sectors of society. Misjudged criminal cases are the psychological “high-tension line” and “primary source of pressure” of many prosecutors and judges. In the investigation of wrongful cases, some prosecutors and judges exposed serious psychological problems and did not get professional and standard psychological counseling and correction. At present, we should perfect the Chinese wrongful case accountability model with the concept of due process, construct the psychological support and service system, and make clear the characteristic principle and application system of psychological counseling.
