Rich people in China hire body doubles to serve jail terms!!

Being wealthy is a great advantage anywhere in the world, however it turns out its even more of an advantage in China where rich people do not have to serve their jail terms when sentenced.. All they have to do is hire a body double (someone who looks a lot like them). more when you continue..

As shocking as it may sound the practice of hiring body doubles to serve jail time in the place of rich and powerful individuals is well-documented in China. So if you thought Nigeria’s legal system was corrupt, think again.

Apparently, China’s wealthy can get away with just about anything, even serving jail time, as long as they’re willing to part with a small fraction of their fortune. Sure, that’s not very surprising, considering even in some Western countries where the legal system is considered impartial, the rich and famous are often shown leniency. Only in China, the so-called “1%” has a different way of dealing with unpleasant situations, like serving time in prison. Instead of wasting their time behind bars, they just pay stand-ins who, for the right sum are willing to take their place. Yes, apparently that’s possible.

imagine that..what do you guys think of this? to be poor na bad thing oh! choi!!
