赤柱監獄
After the transfer of sovereignty over Hong Kong in 1997, the law required Chief Executive Tung Chee Hwa to determine the terms of Won and Cheung. Won's parents appealed to the McBride and Myers families for forgiveness for Won. In 1998, the families announced that they have forgiven Won, and appealed to Tung for a lesser sentence. Tung agreed, and decided that Won would be incarcerated for 27 years and Cheung for a minimum of 30 years. Won would later say upon release from Stanley Prison in 2004, in front of the press, that receiving forgiveness was both touching and hard to accept, and that he would use the opportunity to reintegrate fully back into society. He was later offered clerical work in a law firm through the government's Criminal Rehabilitation Service.
