Wow, it’s pretty uncommon that they actually execute these guys, no? Aren’t they usually changed to life in prison unless there’s some additional offense?
Yup, mostly it’s a two year reprieve where the the execution would only be carried out if there are additional violations or if the convicted was uncooperative. According to the article, the court said:
“The amount of bribes received by Bai Tianhui was extremely large, the crime’s circumstances were particularly serious and the social impact was particularly severe.”
So they decided to go straight to capital punishment.
