There is no doubt about it — the three UCLA players screwed up big time. And now the players may be facing additional charges.
UCLA Bruins freshmen LiAngelo Ball, Cody Riley and Jalen Hill were arrested earlier this week on shoplifting charges in China, where their team spent the week prior to Saturday’s opener against Georgia Tech. But things have gotten worse.

Could have been worse. They could have been tearing down posters in North Korea in which case they would not be coming home standing up.

Those boys sure picked the wrong place to shoplift
“They were laughing and tweeting out that being confined to the hotel was no big deal.”
Their demeanor is a very big deal to Chinese prosecutors. Any reduction of sentence is a balance of value of items stolen (not looking good), video evidence (exists), their confession and remorse for their actions (which they just blew in documented tweets)
This is a good article with input from a Hong Kong human rights expert who studies China judicial system.
Yeah, harvest their baby makers.............
At least the Chinese are getting an idea of what we have to deal with here in the United States. Maybe we can ship our problem population over there for correction.
Yes, ship them over for correction *and* retention.
Publicity will likely spare these rogues, otherwise they might be “taking two knees” next to a ditch before receiving some 7.62x39.
“Of course this outcome will not be assured if the government of the US does not cave in to some demand for their freedom.”
I guess China can try, but I doubt they’ll get our latest missile control technology from Trump, as they would have gotten from Obama (or Bush).
10 years minimum....
US prisons should have 12 hour shifts, 6 days a week of manufacturing. They should pay for themselves earning a small amount of money to start a better life after incarceration.
Ignorant coddled yutes inculcated with victimology. Feeling oppressed but acting superior. I don’t believe the Chinese judicial system grants waivers for spoiled foreigners.
LOL! I was being facetious. :)
Of course Trump will be called a racist when he won’t do a thing to get them out.
UCLA basketball players lack of education goes back to at least the early 80’s

“They aren’t hugely embarrassed. They were laughing and tweeting out that being confined to the hotel was no big deal.”
I guess, besides no one telling them there are cameras all over China, no one has told them of their electronic surveillance.
...but they will soon find out!!!
If there is a basketball version of "Major League" in the next few years, how would the dialogue go?
"Where did you play last season?" "Chow Mein Penal".
Keep the thugs over there would be good with me. We don’t need’ em
But they are entitled because racism.
