Why did Liu Yong commute his death sentence through retrial?
There is a sharp contrast between the Liu Yong case and the Simpson case. China is a country that attaches great importance to entity, and the United States attaches great importance to procedural legality. The values of the two legal systems are different. If Liu Yong comes to the United States, he may be acquitted. As for taking bribes, it's hard to say without evidence. It can only be said that the Liu Yong case is largely influenced by public opinion, and the real rule of law should be independent. What is said upstairs is quite right: "It is sad to change the sentence because of public opinion", but any law serves a certain society. Since it is in China, it is bound to be influenced by public opinion, because "the law is outnumbered by the public" and "popular support" are, in the final analysis, the result of different values. In other countries, he may not die.
