随着英国曼彻斯特皇家法院的审判进入最后阶段，30岁的丽贝卡·乔恩斯面临着与两名未成年男生发生性行为的六项重罪指控，她对此均表示不认罪。    A recent in-flight medical emergency highlighted how traditional Chinese medicine techniques can complement emergency care in unexpected settings.    Four faculty members from the Beijing University of Chinese Medicine responded to a medical emergency aboard an overnight Air China flight from Paris to Beijing, using a combination of conventional assessments and TCM therapies to help an 11-year-old passenger whose condition later stabilized.    At about 3 am Beijing time on July 20, cabin crew issued an urgent call for medical assistance after the Chinese girl, who was returning from a performance in France, developed chest pain, alarming her family.    Four BUCM faculty members immediately came forward: Wang Ting, the university's vice-president; An Chao, deputy director of the International Cooperation Department; Chen Younan, associate dean of the School of Acupuncture-Moxibustion Tuina; and Zheng Fengjie, dean of the School of Traditional Chinese Medicine.    After checking the girl's blood pressure, body temperature and heart rate, they identified persistent pain in the chest area as her primary symptom.    The team administered oxygen and placed a TCM pill under the girl's tongue to promote blood circulation and relieve pain.    They also applied acupressure and massage techniques, focusing on several acupoints including Neiguan, located on the inner forearm about two to three finger widths above the wrist crease, between the tendons of the palmaris longus and flexor carpi radialis muscles.    According to TCM theory, stimulating the Neiguan acupoint is believed to help regulate heart function, calm the mind and relieve chest discomfort.    Working in the cramped cabin, the four physicians took turns kneeling beside the girl while monitoring her condition. Her chest pain gradually subsided. After the aircraft landed in Beijing, the crew arranged for ground medical personnel to continue her treatment. Later reports revealed that her condition had stabilized.    Wang said the emergency response demonstrated that TCM can play a role in certain acute situations when used alongside standard medical assessments.    "The treatment combined sublingual administration of a traditional Chinese medicine pill with acupressure techniques," he said. "Together, they helped relieve the child's symptoms by promoting blood circulation and easing the chest pain."    He added that many people associate TCM mainly with chronic disease management and health maintenance, while overlooking its potential applications in emergency situations.    "Herbal medicine, acupuncture and tuina are not limited to long-term care," Wang said. "We hope more people, both in China and abroad, will gain a better understanding of the role traditional Chinese medicine can play in emergency care."    The July incident was not the first time faculty members and students from BUCM provided medical assistance aboard flights.    On June 28, 2024, doctoral student Cao Feng used acupuncture to help revive a woman who had lost consciousness aboard a flight from Beijing to Lanzhou in Gansu province.    And on Oct 9, 2024, student Gao Yingjun administered acupressure to assist a Russian passenger suspected of having a stroke on a flight from the Maldives to Shanghai.    More recently, on Jan 1 this year, doctoral student Yang Yao used acupuncture on the Neiguan acupoint to help treat a passenger experiencing a hypertensive emergency aboard a China Eastern Airlines flight.    For the university, these incidents illustrate how medical professionals trained in TCM can contribute when emergencies arise unexpectedly, even thousands of meters above the ground.                    。此案围绕一位前教师与青少年之间的关系展开，陪审团周五将进行审议，决定其命运。

在过去数日的法庭审理中，陪审员们深入了解了这位教师的心理状况及据称与青少年发生的多起性接触事件，证据与辩词交织，引人深思。尤其引人注目的是，乔恩斯与第二名所谓的受害者，即未公开身份的男孩B，育有一女。

情感纠葛与信物。

B | 陪审团得知，乔恩斯曾向一名青少年寄送了一封充满激情的情书，称其为“我所梦想的一切”。检察官Joe Olman在庭上朗读了这封信的部分内容，信中乔恩斯表达了对16岁男孩B的深情：“你的每一寸都是完美，你是我所有愿望的实现。”乔恩斯承认，尽管她与男孩B发展了感情并在其离校后怀上了他的孩子，但她否认在其就读高中期间与其有染。

男孩B则声称，两人在他尚为小学生时便已发生关系，且描述了包括亲吻在内的亲密互动。此外，双方还因未出生孩子的未来产生争执，乔恩斯被指威胁称若男孩B结束关系，她将自残甚至自杀，让孩子成为他的责任。

社交媒体的秘密交流。乔恩斯承认通过Snapchat与15岁的男孩A秘密沟通，而这一行为及其与男孩B的类似交流均瞒着双方家长。

C | 男孩们与她之间存在明显的暧昧，如男孩A称呼她为“性感”，而男孩B的信息内容则更为露骨。乔恩斯在庭上坦承，作为专业教师，她不应涉足此类交流，对此她负有责任。

奢侈礼物与约会之夜。法庭透露，乔恩斯赠予男孩A一条价值345英镑的Gucci腰带，并被监控录像捕捉到与他在特拉福德中心购买该物品的画面，检方视此为“诱骗”行为的一部分。此外，她还策划了一场包含性暗示刮刮卡、玫瑰花瓣和隐藏字条的“约会之夜”与男孩B共度，最终以宣布怀孕的消息作为“惊喜”，这一系列行为突显了双方关系的复杂与不当。

失去一切的代价。乔恩斯在庭上哭泣着讲述自己刚出生的女儿在24小时内被带走的经历，她每周仅有三次、每次三小时的探访权。她身着粉色婴儿帽出现在法庭，以此象征对孩子的思念，否认此举是为了博取陪审团同情，强调这是她与女儿情感联系的一种方式。

案件中的细节，如乔恩斯在性行为前的警告语、与男孩们的相互吸引以及她对自己孤独渴望关注的心理状态的揭示，共同构建了一个复杂的情感与法律责任交织的故事。乔恩斯承认自己的错误，同时也坚称与男孩B的性关系是在她离职之后，且关系恶化是由于对方变得控制欲强。

此案不仅关乎个人行为的道德界限，也触及教育者职责、青少年保护及法律制裁的深远议题，等待陪审团的将是艰难的判断。
