Q: How long is a life sentence in China?

So Bo Xilai has just been given a life sentence for corruption. But how long is that? In many countries a life sentence is actually until you die, it is more like 15-20 years. Will he get out????

 

Also, what do we think his living conditions will be like? 

10 years 29 weeks ago in  General  - China

Long enough to find someone to be his body double so he can flee to Zurich, Switzerland with his money.

Sometimes the next morning after receiving sentence depends how good your lawyer is.

A life sentence in China is every year that is spent here - or so it seems!
