Read all about it I find it interesting that a liberal news outlet such as ABC News would point such a level finger at another country's justice system, even if that other country is China. I'm sure China's injustices are numerous, but the example in this story is hardly more egregious than anything the US has ever done. The US has convicted and jailed for decades hundreds of people based on flimsy eyewitness testimony, faulty evidence, and a myriad of other injustices. China's civil rights violations go far beyond the wrongfully convicted; they are sweeps of protesters exerting what we would call 1st Amendment rights; they are imprisonments of journalists and other free thinkers who dare to challenge the Chines Communist Manifesto, the forced abortions on women to meet a one-child limit. That is what ABC News should highlight. There's little difference between the US and the story in this article, and a huge difference between the US and China's civil rights violations. Any time you must place your life in the hands of the government, it's flip of a coin on whether or not you will receive fair justice.
