Canadian national Robert Lloyd Schellenberg, was convicted of trying to smuggle about 222kg of methamphetamine from China to Australia. He had been initially sentenced, two months ago, to 15 years in jail. He appealed the sentence at the Liaoning High People’s Court, which concluded that the initial sentence was too light. A retrial in a lower court has (now) put him on death row.

calling a death sentence “arbitrary” and begging for help from the international community is already doing nothing.

Trafficking 500 pounds of meth is serious business.If he is,in fact,guilty (and one can never be sure with Chinese courts) then he shouldn't be surprised by a harsh sentence.

I have zero problems with the Chinese courts on this one.

Drug dealers get off too light here.

If the guy was truly caught trying to smuggle about 222kg of methamphetamine from China to Australia, then he should be put to death or at the least get a life sentence with no parole.

If he did it, what he was doing was the same as killing people. I have zero sympathy for him.

well, the timing is incredibly suspicious. maybe the Chinese only enforce their customs inspections and drug laws when they’re pissed off about something else and need a scapegoat, but it seems highly improbable.
