Other inmates, incited by team leader Hu Runmei, knocked out a few of her teeth. The guards forced her to do an excessive amount of work in an effort to "transform" her and stop her from cultivating "Truthfulness, Compassion, Forbearance," but they couldn't move her firm will to cultivate Falun Gong.
