Actor Jackie Chan's Son Facing Death Penalty for Drug Charges in China

Actor Jackie Chan's son, Jaycee, was caught smoking a joint with Taiwanese actor Ko Cheng-tung at a foot mass in Beijing. They weer both arrested but Ko Cheng-tung was released after just 2 weeks. Jaycee remains locked up to this day, Maybe because he was holding 3.5 ounces of weed and he has also been charged with harboring drug users and accommodating drug users, and these are the charges that could keep him in prison for years to come or cost him his life. In China, they equate drug offences the same as killing a person. So if you are convicted of trafficing in drugs, you could die for it. Dayum, I think that is a bit much. Because what if you are convicted of selling dime bags of weed? Should you really die for that? I dont think so. Although, I have seen cases here on my reality show, the First 48 where people have been killed for owing a dealer just $50.00. So who knows for sure, maybe China is right?? Jaycee is also an actor like his dad Jackie, so the Chinese government might make an example of him when it comes to the outcome of the charges against him. Hey Jackie our thoughts and prayers are with you and your family during this trying time.
