You can't really compare the two countries. The US has 4x (531/100k) the number of prisoners per capita that China (119/100k) has.

And crime in almost every category is 3-18x higher (+ 83x more assaults than China)

The only category china ranks higher in is corruption and bribery and oddly the number of judges and prosecutors employed.

The definition of assault and the reporting rate are completely different. You can’t compare those numbers just looking them up on the Internet.
