Since March 1, 2005, Mrs. Bai Junjie has been illegally held in the Taihang Women's Prison, No. 2 Ward, in Baodingman City, as well as the No. 2 Squadron for over three months. Under orders from warden Lan and directors Yan Xiuqing and Hui Shuju, there are six to seven "transformed" former practitioners that surround Mrs. Bai Junjie daily to brainwash her. Director Yan Xiuqing stated that they would not stop until they had "transformed" (1) her. Under the brutal persecution, Mrs. Bai has suffered greatly, both physically and mentally. Her blood pressure went up to 240-250, and her heart showed abnormalities. She has no freedom whatsoever and her family is not allowed to visit her.

Mrs. Bai Junjie was arrested by the local police station on January 28, 2005. Her husband went to look for her on January 30, and the police told him that she was sent to the Shishanli Detention Centre the day before. They gave him her belt, gloves, and keys, but did not provide a receipt for the 1000 yuan (2) that they confiscated from her. On February 2, her husband found Wang Fengjun, the director of the police station, and asked to see his wife. Wang Fengjun replied that she would have to request the arrangement. On February 5, the police called and told him to go to the police station at 9:00 a.m. the next day, and that certain leaders would accompany him to go to the detention centre. He went to the detention centre with Wang Fengjun, instructor Hu Jingshen, deputy director Shi, and several other policemen. Once they arrived, he realized that it was the day they had arranged to force-feed his wife, who had been on a hunger strike for nine days already. Dr. Song Jun from the No. 3 Hospital and another female physician were ready for the force-feeding. Four people carried Mrs. Bai Junjie out, and her husband was shocked and dismayed when he saw his wife's current condition. His wife looked completely different from someone who was strong and whose face used to be glowing with health. She was very weak and told her husband in sputtering words, "They won't let me sleep, they lay me on the floor. My liver area hurts badly. They don't care..." She then pointed to the deputy director of the police station, Shi, and said, "He beat me." Her husband asked why he beat her, and Shi snuck away without answering the question. Her husband also told the doctors that his wife used to have a serious heart condition and hypertension before she practiced Falun gong, and told them to be careful with her.

At around 4:00 p.m. on February 16, Jiaodong Court Second Criminal Court Presiding Judge Wang Jian and a clerk came to see Mrs. Bai's husband. They told him that the court hearing would start the next day at around 9:00 a.m. for the trial and that he could look for a lawyer. He was speechless, as he was given less than 24 hours to find a lawyer for the show-trial.

As a result of the persecution, Mrs. Bai's family has been reduced to poverty and is debt-ridden. In order to pay the debt, her husband sold their house and became homeless. During the persecution, where can you find a lawyer willing to defend a Falun Gong practitioner?

On February 17, 2005, they started the trial, which was held at the detention centre. At that time, Mrs. Bai Junjie had been on hunger strike for twenty days. She was in a semi-comatose state, and was carried out by four people that laid her down on the concrete floor. Her breathing was feeble, and she was shaking all over and convulsing. She could not reply or defend herself. Mrs. Bai Junjie gathered up her strength and said, "I practice 'Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance'. I am not guilty." Judge Wang Chunxiang, presiding judge Wang Jian, chief of the court Li Wusheng, and others pretended that they did not hear her and went along with their arranged agenda. They sentenced her to seven years in a labour camp. Afterwards someone from the government revealed that Mrs. Bai's court verdict was decided ahead of time by the City Political and Legal Committee.
