Beijing Vice Mayor Gets Suspended Death Sentence Anyway...
Well guys, despite rather sympathetic coverage by the Legal Daily, perhaps the product of a thick envelope from lawyer, former Vice Mayor of Beijing Liu Zhihua will get a suspended death sentence due to "well grounded, sufficient" evidence. At least he won't be carted to the executed ground immediately like Cheng Kejie. In two years, perhaps for "humanitarian" reason he will be moved to the general prison population.

记者从最高人民法院获悉，21日上午，河北省高级人民法院对北京市原副市长刘志华受贿一案宣布二审裁定，维持了一审法院的死缓判决。
2008年10月18日，衡水市中级人民法院于对刘志华案宣告一审判决，认定刘志华利用职务便利为他人谋取利益，索取和收受他人财物折合人民币696万余元，其行为构成受贿罪，情节特别严重，应当适用死刑刑罚。鉴于刘志华案发后能主动坦白部分犯罪事实，绝大部分赃款、赃物已追缴，对其判处死刑，可不立即执行，遂判处其死刑，缓期二年执行，剥夺政治权利终身，没收个人全部财产。
一审宣判后，刘志华不服，提出上诉。河北省高级人民法院经审理认为，一审判决认定的事实清楚，证据确实、充分，定罪准确，量刑适当，审判程序合法，裁定驳回刘志华的上诉，维持原判。 (徐日丹)

I happen to know 任继宁. It is not surprised to me that he got his BA at his 29. I am also surprised that he could make it and even got a MBA degree. His score of entry examination to Chinese colleagues in 1988 was verey very low. His entry to a top Chinese university is because of his family ties.
