Reporting caveats
All detailed case reporting comes from Minghui.org, a Falun Gong-affiliated outlet; terms it uses to characterize legal procedures are attributed to the source rather than stated as independent findings. The family-reported health concerns in prison (vision and cognitive decline) are attributed to the family via the report. No official court documents, state-media reports, or independent corroboration have been located. The dossier uses both 徐金凤 and 徐金风; the reports concern the same person and case chain.
