If you were to opine based on his life story it certainly seems like he's guilty considering that he's had eleven convictions for drug & DUI charges and jail time... for selling drugs. It's hard to take that into consideration and treat this guy like an innocent tourist who was coincidentally used as a patsy for a drug deal gone wrong.
China putting a previously convicted drug dealer to death for allegedly dealing drugs is not tugging on my heart strings.
The other two I don't know enough about them to comment.
For me, I lose no sleep over him being convicted, and sentenced to a lengthy prison term. What bothers me is that his sentence was arbitrarily changed from prison to death after the dispute over Meng Wenzhou had begun. That’s just state-sanctioned murder.
