Topic	Vietnamese woman sentenced to death for $44 billion bank fraud
ForsakenHermit 04/20/24 5:57:30 PM #14:	Umbreon posted... I'm not comfortable with the idea of someone being executed over money, but I also can't help but wonder how such laws would go over here. I'm guessing the argument for a death penalty is "You can't bribe death itself". Vietnam is still de jure Marxist Leninist and though they have more or less embraced capitalism, the influence of Marxist-Leninist thought isn't as far gone as people think. Embezzlement on that level is still a crime against the people and punishable by death. China is the same way, presumably Laos is as well. --- Beware the fanatic!
