💨 Abstract

A Hong Kong court sentenced social worker Jackie Chen to 3 years and 9 months in prison for rioting during the 2019 pro-democracy protests, overturning her initial acquittal. Chen, a member of the Battlefield Social Worker group, was found to have used a loudhailer to encourage rioting. Three other defendants were also sentenced after pleading guilty.
