The amazing story of #JackieChan and his son #JayceeChan who was caught in drug scandal

Jaycee chan is an actor and singer who works in Cantonese and Taiwanese music industry (his mother is Taiwanese actress)
#AryanKhanArrested #AryanKhanDrugCase
In 2014, Jaycee was caught by Beijing police along with fellow actor KaiKo
They found 3 ounces of marijuana in his apartment
Kai Ko was released after 14 days
But Jaycee faced huge criminal case of allegedly hosting others to consume marijuana which as per cheenese law carries
life imprisonment or death penalty
Cheena and Arab countries have some of very severe anti drig laws

Unfortunately it was Jackie chan who had to face the music as he was Good-Will ambassador of cheena in its fight against drigs

Unlike Bollywood actor fathers who
use every crooked idea and tricks in books to save their sons
Jackie chan first gave a public apology on his son’s behalf and said let law take whatever action it has to on my son
And promised to never use his influence, money or good will to save his son
So Beijing police applied a case of accommodating drig consumption against Jaycee
He spent in 32nd birthday in jail
And after 6 months in jail his trial began in Jan 2015

Chan confessed that he broke the law and he should be punished for his actions and that he would not do
it again. His parents did not attend their son's hearing although the Jackie Chan was in Beijing

It was later revealed that during his jail, Chan wrote a three-page remorse letter to his mother in which he promised that he would not repeat his mistakes in the future and
he promised to change and read 100 books to become a good person

He was sentenced to 6 months jail and fine and was released after spending nearly an year in jail

After his release he issued a public apology by saying that he had "no reason" and "no excuse" for his law
breaking and his arrest had "a negative impact on society. He promised that he would be a law-abiding citizen and he would focus on spending Chinese New Year with his parents. He stated that prison life was "harsh" and that his father did not use any connections to help ease
his sentence.

After Chan's release from prison, he lived with his mother in Taiwan, keeping a low profile, and often wearing a mask to avoid being seen in public.

In April 2011 in Beijing during an award ceremony Jackie stated that he would be donating half his money
to charity when he dies, instead of to his son.

Jackie explained, "If he is capable, he can make his own money. If he is not, then he will just be wasting my money”

Yes even great people like Jackie Chan can have bad apples in their families
But it is how you bring them back to be good people that matters
Now compare this to how our politicians actors rich people treat their wayward sons and to what extent they go to protect them
That is the biggest flaw in our society
