This could potentially be really serious:
LiAngelo Ball Reportedly Could Face 3-10 Years in Jail for Shoplifting in China | Bleacher Report What complete idiots. They are in a foreign country, a communist country, one that has very strict laws. Shoplifting here in America is a Petty Misdemeanor which usually is a slap on the wrist and/or a fine and almost never jail time. Even if you would get jail time for shoplifting we are talking days in jail, not years! This is China, this is not America. If these three UCLA basketball players are found guilty, they are going to need all the help they can get from the US. If they weren’t UCLA basketball players with probable connections, from what I have read and listen to they would get 3 to 10 years without question. Now will they get that? It may come down to the UCLA president making calls but extra help will be needed. |

Otto Warmbier was definitely tortured. Horrible situation.
I just read that the prosecutors in China, their conviction rate is roughly 99.2%. Wow. A woman there got sentenced to 10 years in prison for stealing a cell phone and apparently that was a light sentence. |
