Recently, the news that two post-00 students were sentenced for ** crimes has attracted widespread attention. 
On the afternoon of April 16, 2023, Dong, Li, Liang, Lei, Feng, Zhu and others went to a roller skating commune in Xining City to play, and dispersed at 0:00 a.m. on the 17th, and at 1 a.m., Dong, Li and Liang met with Zhu, Feng, and Lei through WeChat to go to Lei's house to drink. At about 4 o'clock in the morning, Zhu slept in the second bedroom after drinking, and Dong and Li encouraged each other to have sex with Zhu through WeChat in the living room. After that, Dong went to Zhu's sleeping room, and after forcibly having sex despite Zhu's resistance, he exited the bedroom and entered the living room, and Li ran into Zhu's sleeping room again, wanting to forcibly have sex, but Zhu's fierce resistance failed. After the case was discovered, the relatives of Dong and Li respectively compensated the victim Zhu for 10,000 yuan for mental losses, and Zhu expressed forgiveness for the acts of the two defendants and requested that criminal responsibility be mitigated, mitigated, or exempted. 
The two defendants were sentenced to prison terms for committing ** against the victim's will while intoxicated. There is no doubt that such violations of the law should be severely punished at the legal level. However, at the sentencing stage, the court took into account a number of specific circumstances, with one of the defendants receiving a sentence of 6 years and 6 months in prison, while the other received a sentence of 5 years and 6 months. The difference lies in the specific conduct at the time of the crime and the different roles of the two persons in the court. However, one of them was not satisfied with the verdict and decided to appeal to a higher court. He hoped that he would get a reduced sentence or other outcome in his favor through the appeal, but unfortunately, the appeal did not turn out to be what he expected. The court rejected his appeal and firmly upheld the verdict at first instance. 
This incident is not only shocking, but also makes people think deeply: how to protect the rights and interests of victims through legal means?First of all, this incident allows us to see the severity of the law's crackdown on ** crimes. Two post-"00" students were sentenced for committing ** crimes, which is a severe punishment for criminal acts and a voice of justice for the victims. The law is a strong backing for the protection of victims, and we should unswervingly uphold the authority of the law so that criminals receive the punishment they deserve. However, this incident also shows us the importance of protecting the rights and interests of victims. In ** cases, victims often face significant physical and psychological trauma and need more attention and support. We should establish sound laws and regulations to provide more protection and assistance to victims, so that they can stand up bravely and defend their rights and interests in the face of crime. At the same time, we should also strengthen sex education for young people to improve their sexual awareness and self-protection ability. Young people are the future of the motherland, and their healthy growth has a bearing on the future of the country. We should strengthen sex education for young people, so that they can understand sexual knowledge, master the methods of self-protection, and avoid being harmed by ** victimization. In short, the incident of two post-00 students being sentenced for ** crimes has sounded the alarm for us. We should strengthen legal awareness, protect the rights and interests of victims, strengthen sex education for young people, and jointly create a harmonious and safe social environment.
