According to the Modern Express, according to Jiupai News, Xiaoyu (pseudonym), a girl from Guanyun County, Lianyungang City, Jiangsu Province, rode an electric bike in the opposite direction a few months before the college entrance examination this year and hit and killed a pedestrian. Because she actively rescued the victim and took the initiative to compensate with her family, she was forgiven by the victim's relatives and was not prosecuted. She eventually took the college entrance examination and was successfully admitted to a university. Recently, Xiaoyu received an admission letter from an undergraduate college in Nantong.

Some people praised the judicial organs for their humanity and praised the victim's family for being reasonable. Others questioned the rationality of the verdict: "Although he was about to take the college entrance examination, he killed someone after all. Why should we forgive him?"

On the 20th, Jiupai News tried to contact the Guanyun County Procuratorate, but no response was received as of press time.

Liu Hongchun, associate professor at the School of Law of Yunnan University and senior consultant of Beijing Zhongwen (Kunming) Law Firm, told Jiupai News that he believes that the verdict in this case is based on the law, takes into account both legal, reasonable and emotional factors, and is legal, reasonable and compliant.

Jiupai News looked through the 12309 China Procuratorate website and found that in traffic accidents, there are also similar cases where the parties were forgiven and not prosecuted after killing or injuring others.
