19th September 2024 – (Qingdao) A 25-year-old man, Li Mouyong, was sentenced to death by the Qingdao Intermediate People’s Court on October 18 for the brutal murders of two kindergarten teachers in Pingdu, Shandong Province.
The court found Li guilty of intentional homicide, stripping him of his political rights for life.
The tragic incident occurred on 11th December, when Li forcibly entered the rented accommodation of the two teachers, fatally stabbing one, Li Moufei, before proceeding to kill another teacher, Liu.
Li was apprehended by police while attempting to flee to another location.
According to the prosecution, Li’s actions were driven by feelings of resentment stemming from personal difficulties. He had developed a vendetta against his former classmate, Li Moufei, and his cousin, Li Mouhui.
Through stalking and surveillance, he obtained Li Moufei’s address and had previously purchased a knife in preparation for the attack.
On the night of the incident, after Li Moufei opened the door, he entered and began his assault.
Liu attempted to intervene, managing to wrestle the knife from Li but ultimately lost her struggle and was killed.
Liu’s father has expressed a desire for justice, hoping for the death penalty for his daughter’s murderer and seeking recognition for her bravery.
