So, they get death, and the life inprisonment, and a fine.

So, this raises q's...

1) Capital Punishment, not for murderers (i.e. one), nor for serial killers, but for those who endanger millions for profit? Hmmmmm.....

2) other questions.

The scandal, in which melamine was added to raw milk to make it appear higher in protein, led to the deaths of six babies

So their actions, however indirectly, led to six deaths and 300,000 children becoming seriously ill. I don't agree with the death penalty, but in just about any country those crimes would result in a long time in prison.

The former boss of the Sanlu dairy at the centre of the scandal was given life imprisonment.

Was she aware of what was happening? What made'em decide to give her life and the others a death sentence?
