Yang Xinhua was one of China’s worst serial killers. He was responsible for the murders of 67 people in the course of a three-year rampage that began in 2001 and ended with his capture in November 2004. Yang used tools such as an iron hammer or a meat cleaver to murder entire families. He had moved around since 1999 and committed crimes in 26 cases in the rural areas of Henan, Shandong, Anhui and Hebei provinces. Little is known about his motives, but earlier reports said Yang had been dumped by his girlfriend and “desperately wanted to retaliate against society.” Police have described him as mentally unbalanced. Yang had been imprisoned twice on charges of burglary and rape, and turned to murder after his release in 1999. He was captured and executed in 2004.
