It seems to me that the Chinese government is not managed well. Yes, the Shenzhen researcher should have been stopped, but I see no reason to put him in prison.
He went to prison for embarrassing the Chinese government. If this happened in America or EU, then they would go to prison for performing unethical experiments on humans. In modern times, for good or for bad there is a large process before we try something on humans. As the past has shown that there have been a lot of death, and often unjust selection on who to experiment on. And many are suffering from the consequences after the fact.
Hold up... are you actually under the impression that you need to PAY for a trial by jury in the US? And that people are required to sit in jail for YEARS waiting on trial based upon financial resources??
That's an impressive level of stupidity.
The sixth amendment to the constitution guarantees a citizen's right to a trial by jury regardless of personal finances and also provides a right to a "speedy" trial... which is further protected from delay by the speedy trial act of 1974.
You don't need to Pay for a jury trial... However if you want a layer who just wasn't picked out of a pool of available lawyers being paid a "charity rate" to cover you for any prolonged legal action, you are going to need to pay a lot more. If you get the court provided lawyer his interest is to get this job over with as quickly as possible so they can work on something more profitable. So they will probably just try to settle out of court, or get you to plead guilty and take a lighter punishment.

Most Americans can't afford a proper jury trial. They often can't even afford bail, so they sit in jail for years waiting for a trial date.
Much better to just take a plea deal for an immediate reduced sentence, whether you are guilty or not.
Per capita, America incarcerates four times as many people as China.
