新生訓導處位於臺東縣綠島鄉，1953年2月中旬，第一大隊新生齊維城發起「一人一事良心救國運動」，要求政治犯在身上刺「反共抗俄」等標語，以作為宣傳之用。處方同時藉此驗收感訓成果，結果新生反應冷淡，活動以失敗收場，處方歸咎於第四中隊新生陳華等人刻意破壞造成，於是對新生展開整肅行動，1953年7月將陳華等人移送保安處法辦，此即學界所稱「綠島再叛亂案」。

就在陳華等人被移送法辦前夕，處方又以整肅殘餘勢力之名，突擊檢查十一中隊，搜獲宣傳大陸土改成功字條及反動信件，經秘密偵訊之後，斷定係十一中隊匪俘李一飛及第六中隊叛亂犯陳澄銓等密謀組織「綠島自求解放委員會」等非法組織，負責人陳澄銓，遂於1953年12月將陳澄銓等人押回臺灣法辦，此即本文所稱「陳澄銓案」。

陳澄銓等人被移送保安處及軍法處審訊時，陳澄銓、張坤修、林茂松、陳登龍、李壽官、葉金柱、陳進財等人分別上陳在新生訓導處受刑經過自白書、報告，指證歷歷，最後軍法處判決陳澄銓等人在新生訓導處「受迫亂供」，缺乏具體事證，而判決無罪。由此觀之，本案為名副其實的假案，本文透過檔案管理局提供相關檔案史料，探討新生訓導處建構假案的原因及過程，進而揭開新生訓導處感訓教育鮮為人知的恐怖面紗。

New Life Correction Center is located in Green Island Township, Taitung County. In mid-February 1953, The First Battalion of New Student, Chi Wei-Cheng, initiated "One Person One Act, Conscience for Country" Movement, demanding that political prisoners have slogans such as "opposing Communism and fighting Soviet Russia" tattooed on their bodies for propaganda purposes. The Center used this opportunity to assess the results of thought reform, but the response from the new lifers was tepid, and the activity ultimately failed, with the blame placed on deliberate sabotage by new students from the Fourth Squadron. Consequently, a crackdown was launched on the new lifers, and in July 1953, Chen Hua and others from the Fourth Squadron were transferred to The Security Section for prosecution, an event known as the "New Life Correction Center Rebellion Case" in academic circles.

Just before Chen Hua and others were transferred for prosecution, the Center launched a sudden inspection of the Eleventh Squadron under the pretext of eliminating residual forces, where they discovered propaganda materials promoting the success of land reform in mainland China and reactionary letters. After secret interrogations, it was determined that the captured, Li, Yi-Fei, from the Eleventh Squadron and the rebel, Chen Cheng-Chuan, from the Sixth Squadron were plotting to organize an illegal group called the "Green Island SelfRedemption Committee", with Chen Cheng-Chuan as the leader. Subsequently, in December 1953, Chen Cheng-Chuan and others were brought back to Taiwan for prosecution, known as the "CHEN CHENGCHUAN Case" in this document.

When Chen Cheng-Chuan, Chang Kun-Hsiu, Lin Mao-Sung, Chen Teng-Lung, Li Shou-Kuan, Yeh Chin-Chu, Chen Chin-Tsai and the others were interrogated by the Security Section and Martial Law Section, they each submitted confessions and reports detailing the torture they endured at New Life Correction Center, providing clear evidence. In the end, Martial Law Section ruled that Chen Cheng-Chuan and others had provided "coerced false confessions" at New Life Correction Center, lacking concrete evidence, and therefore, they were acquitted. Thus, this case truly was a fabricated one. Through archival materials provided by National Archives Administration, this document explores the reasons and processes behind the construction of fabricated cases by New Life Correction Center, revealing the little-known terrifying aspect of thought reform at New Life Correction Center.
