BEIJING (AP) -- An appeals court in China overturned the death penalty
Tuesday in a drunk driving case, sentencing the defendant instead to life
imprisonment.

Sun Weiming, 30, was sentenced to death after being convicted for a fatal
accident last December that killed four people and injured another in
southwestern Chengdu. It was reportedly the first time a death penalty had
been given in a drunk driving case in China.

On Tuesday, the Sichuan Provincial Higher People's Court overturned the
sentence on appeal, giving him life in prison instead, China Central
Television reported on its noon newscast.


Cut this guy free! He could win in a landslide to become a senator from
Massachusetts!
