In 2019, Wei Wei was sentenced to death in Japan for killing a family of people living happily, including children. After the execution warrant was signed, Japan's Minister of Justice Masako Mori said it was an extremely cold and cruel act.
Although Japan has a death penalty system, the conditions for sentencing and execution are very strict, and the death penalty is rarely imposed for any circumstance. The execution of the death penalty can be delayed for a long time even for the most ** criminals.
Wei Wei was sentenced to death by a Japanese court in 2007, but was not executed until 2019. If China's standards for an immediate execution were followed, he would have lived a full 12 years longer.
In terms of his time, he has "earned" 16 years of life. This case is yet another reminder that any form of violent crime is unacceptable and must be punished by the law.
Due to Wei Wei's involvement in the ** case, Sino-Japanese people-to-people exchanges have been profoundly affected. After the incident, the censorship of Chinese students studying in Japan became stricter, and many students, especially those from Changchun, were denied visas.
Chinese students who are already in Japan are also having difficulty finding part-time jobs, and even borrowing books has become difficult. The **case involved in Wei Wei is a case of inhumane annihilation**, and the version of the conclusion is different from the conclusion, and with Wei Wei's execution, it has become more mysterious.
As convincing as these versions sound, they are still confusing.
In the early morning of June 20, 2003, Matsumoto's father came to pick up his grandchildren from school as usual. However, he rang the doorbell for a long time that morning and no one answered, so he had to open the door himself and enter the house.
However, the emptiness of the home made him feel unusual. Usually, the daughter-in-law should already be cooking breakfast at this time, and the children should also get up to get ready for school.
He carefully inspected each room and found that the living room, bathroom, and granddaughter's room all looked messy. What scared him the most was that he found some suspected blood stains in the bathroom.
This is a family, and he immediately called a few **, but he couldn't contact his son's family. He didn't dare to delay any longer and immediately called the police.
* When arriving at the scene, the medical examiner quickly restored a shocking scene: there were blood stains in the entrance of the living room, indicating that there had been a fierce fight; There were also signs of a struggle in the bedroom of the two children, and saliva and urine on the floor showed someone badly injured and unconscious, causing both conditions; The bathroom has the most blood stains, and even after rinsing and wiping, there is still a noticeable residue; No cash has been lost in the home, and the Mercedes Benz of great value has not been found.
A family of four disappeared, with no cash at home, leaving only a bloody scene, which was obviously a serious ** case. **An investigation was launched immediately. According to Matsumoto Shinjiro's father, he passed on the barbecue restaurant he had run for many years to his son, and the barbecue restaurant had been doing well under his son's management, and his son used the money he earned to buy this large house with a single family, and replaced the most ** Mercedes Benz car in the first two years.
However, due to the effects of mad cow disease, the barbecue shop closed down, and the son and daughter-in-law changed careers to start a clothing business.
The son once vowed that the network marketing business would go well, but he didn't expect it to backfire, and a large number of stockpiles were not sold, which made his financial situation in trouble.
As they dig deeper, they discover that Shinjiro Matsumoto's financial situation is even worse than his father thought. In order to solve the bankruptcy of the barbecue restaurant and the deficit of the clothing business, he had to mortgage his house, barbecue shop and Mercedes Benz to the bank for loans, and borrowed tens of millions of yuan in usury.
The pressure of loan sharks forced him to buy an insurance policy worth 190 million yen, and he had to pay a monthly premium of 140,000 yen. The term of the loan shark is about to expire, but in reality he is bankrupt.
* Based on these circumstances, it is speculated that Shinjiro Matsumoto may have killed his wife and children and fled because he could not bear the pressure of debt.
Shinjiro Matsumoto's father was convinced that his son would not do such an extreme thing. According to him, his son is not showing any signs of going to extremes, and he still has several properties and large savings in Fukuoka that are enough to solve any financial difficulties.
He believed that if there was a real debt problem, his son would turn to him for help. However, the answer was found more than ten hours after the incident. They found two bodies in a dock, one of a man in his forties and the other of a teenage girl.
One of the man's feet and the girl's hand were handcuffed together, and a dumbbell was wrapped around the handcuffs. The man was covered in bruises, and his head was beaten and deformed; The girl had bruises on her face and strangulation marks on her neck.
It was confirmed that the man was Shinjiro Matsumoto and the girl was his daughter. It was found that Shinjiro Matsumoto had died of drowning, and that he had not lost his breath when he was thrown into the sea, although he had been beaten before his death, and his head was dented and fractured.
The death of Matsumoto Shinjiro's father and daughter is full of suspicions, and based on the bruises on the daughter's face and the location where the bodies of the father and daughter were found, it is suspected that his wife and children also suffered misfortune. After searching, ** found the bodies of Matsumoto Shinjiro's wife and son on the nearby seabed, which was shocking, especially the body of Matsumoto Shinjiro's wife, which made experienced criminal police feel the chill.
A family of four was brutally killed, and Matsumoto's wife and eight-year-old son were handcuffed and sunk to the bottom of the sea with dumbbells wrapped in the middle. Judging from the scene, his wife may have been forcibly drowned in the bathtub, while her body was violently beaten and more than 30 pieces of flesh were cut off, and her front chest was also erased.
Similarly, his son was covered in bruises, as if he had been trampled on by a strong man, and the strangulation marks on his neck were the cause of his death. Because the family **killed and destroyed the family,**suspected** that he might have a deep grudge against Matsumoto Shinjiro, so he began to investigate his social connections.
Eight fingerprints were left at the scene of the crime, five of which were acquaintances of Matsumoto's Shinjiro family, but none of them had the time or motive to commit the crime. The other three fingerprints belonged to strangers. It was also discovered that Shinjiro Matsumoto's wife had the DNA of three strangers in her fingernails.
In order to solve this mystery, ** will focus on finding these three strangers. The handcuffs and dumbbells on the corpse provided important clues. Start researching the stores that sell these items.
A few days later, ** got important information: the handcuffs and dumbbells on the body came from a small shop just a kilometer from Matsumoto's house, and the owner clearly remembered that the buyer was a young man in his twenties.
After a brief conversation, the shopkeeper discovered that the man's speech and accent indicated that he was a foreigner. The shop's surveillance cameras also recorded the man's image.
A young man became a major suspect in the murder case, and a wanted warrant containing him was immediately issued. It didn't take long for a foreign student to report to **, and the person on the wanted notice looked very much like Wang Liang, a Chinese student studying at a Japanese language school in China.
This murder case has caused a huge shock in Japan, and the public is full of expectations for the detection of this case. The pressure on Fukuoka ** was very high, but after identifying the major suspect, they were in high spirits and immediately rushed to arrest Wang Liang.
However, ** was a step late, and Wang Liang had already left Japan a few days ago to return to China. ** Wang Liang's situation in Japan was investigated first, and it was found that he was 19 years old from Changchun, China, who entered a Japanese language training school in Fukuoka in 2002 and had been expelled from the school before the crime.
Then, ** searched the apartment where Wang Liang lived and found a large number of hairs in the apartment. After comparison, Wang Liang's DNA matched the DNA of the dander in the nails of Matsumoto Shinjiro's wife.
In addition, the DNA of Wang Liang's roommate Yang Ning also matched the physical evidence at the scene. **It was found that Yang Ning and Wang Liang were fellow villagers and were close in age, and they took the same flight back to China a few days ago.
* While investigating the surrounding relationship between Wang Liang and Yang Ning, he found a student from Henan, China, named Wei Wei. Wei Wei had a close relationship with Wang Liang and Yang Ning, and among the fingerprints of the three strangers found at the scene, Wei Wei's fingerprints were also among them.
In addition, Wei Wei's DNA was also found in the dander between the fingernails of Matsumoto Shinjiro's wife. Although Wei Wei has no exit record, he has no whereabouts, so he was immediately arrested.
However, when Wei Wei was in **, he still had a flight ticket that was about to take off to China, but in front of the evidence, he chose to remain silent and refused to disclose any facts of the case.
In the end, through DNA comparison, it was determined that Wei Wei was one of the three.
The key to whether a breakthrough can be made in the case lies in whether Wang Liang and Yang Ning can be arrested. Although Japan has informed our country of the case, because the suspects either remain silent or flee, they do not have a clear understanding of the ins and outs of the case.
During this period, there was a rumor of the case that many Japanese people were convinced. This introduction pointed out that this was a ** case caused by underworld loan sharks, and three Chinese students were assigned as killers to create a murder case.
According to the theory, after Matsumoto's death, the high insurance will take effect, and in order to pay the compensation, the underworld loan sharks need to first pay off the debts of the policyholders so that they can recover the principal and interest in full.
In addition, there is a possibility that the claim may be to kill people or create the illusion of burglary. There is also some evidence to support the claim, such as the sighting of an Audi parked in front of Matsumoto's home on the night of the crime and then left with his Mercedes.
The rumored underworld lady murder scene guidance, assisting in the disposal of the body after the killing, this news is circulating in Japanese society. And Wang Liang, the murderer in China, is rumored to have fled back to China.
Soon after, a company employee reported to **, saying that the new young man in the company claimed to have killed someone while drinking, and this employee had a conflict with the young man, so he wanted ** to investigate.
Despite the lad's claims to be just drunk nonsense, ** decided to "visit" him. As a result, when ** appeared, the young man instantly collapsed to the ground. **After investigation, it was found that the identity of this newcomer was Wang Liang, who committed the murder in Japan.
After Wang Liang**, he did not resist and confessed to all the crimes. He is at the heart of this case, which not only led to the tragedy of Matsumoto Shinjiro's family of four, but also ruined his two accomplices.
Wang Liang's family runs a construction company and has a lot of money. His behavior has always been very bad, and when he was studying in Changchun, he often caused trouble and bullied the weak. In 2002, his family paid for him to go to Japan to study, but in Japan, he was not sufficiently restrained and became more presumptuous, not only not concentrating on his studies, but also often bullying his classmates and flaunting his authority.
The money his family gave him was enough for his daily expenses, but he indulged in a life of spending time and drinking, frequenting bars with a Chinese underworld background, and once he had money, he quickly ran out.
Yang Ning and he met in Changchun, and after arriving in Japan, Yang Ning began to be positive, because his family was a cadre family, and the living expenses given to him were not enough to support his study and life, so he worked while studying.
Under extremely difficult circumstances, he was admitted to a private university in Japan. However, because of his dissatisfaction with the language school dormitory, he chose to live in an apartment with Yang Ning.
However, Yang Ning was confused by Wang Liang's ** and fell into the magic barrier. On one occasion, Yang Ning complained to Wang Liang about the discrimination and abuse he suffered while working at a hamburger restaurant, and Wang Liang instigated Yang Ning to retaliate by stealing.
Although Yang Ning was afraid that this behavior would ruin his studies and feel sorry for his family, Wang Liang despised him for this kind of thinking, calling him "gutsless". Under Wang Liang's encouragement, Yang Ning decided to steal.
The next day, he deliberately left a window unclosed when he got off work, and then sneaked into the store with Wang Liang, pried open the safe, and stole nearly 200,000 yuan in yen.
A successful attempt led Yang Ning and Wang Liang on the path of crime. They chose to steal student dormitories and rob Chinese students who came out of Internet cafes late at night. As time went on, they recruited Wei Wei, a Chinese student, to join their criminal gang.
Wei Wei is from Xinmi, Henan Province, and his family conditions are superior, four years older than Yang Ning and Wang Liang. He joined the army for three years and achieved excellent results in provincial sanda competitions after retiring from the army.
Wei Wei excelled in his studies, and his Japanese language grades were unmatched in Dalian's language schools. After two failed attempts at Fukuoka University, he enrolled in a junior college in Japan majoring in computer science.
Once, Wei Wei was drinking in a nearby Chinese bar, Wang Liang was also there, and after hearing from the people at the bar, Wei Wei was very good at kung fu, so he took the initiative to talk to him, hoping to learn some skills.
At that time, Wang Liang was fighting at school and met an opponent who had learned wrestling, and suffered a loss, so he decided to find a teacher to learn kung fu. He was attracted by Wei Wei's temperament and ability, so the two became friends.
I'm the kind of person who likes to bully people. There are more than 100 Chinese students in our language school, most of whom are honest people, and I want to be the king here. ”
* Later, Wang Liang said to the police officer who handled the case.
Wei Wei, who was studying in Japan, lacked friends, and once accosted a Chinese female student in a bar, but after being rejected, he slapped someone a few times, and was called to the police by the female student, and even almost deported.
However, after meeting Wang Liang, Wei Wei's suppressed emotions were released, and he began an indulgent life with Wang Liang and Yang Ning. However, after learning of the two men's criminal acts, Wei Wei did not hesitate to join them.
Together, the three stole the office of the language school where Yang Ning had previously attended, but because they failed to open the safe, they only stole 50,000 yen in cash. Yang Ning warned that if they continue to do so, Japan may find them.
At this time, Wang Liang had already been expelled from the language school for fighting, and his visa was about to expire, so he proposed to do a big one, and then the three of them returned to China together. Wei Wei was in dire need of funds because his family's factory had closed down, his economic situation was in trouble, and he was in urgent need of funds, so he immediately agreed to Wang Liang's proposal.
Although Yang Ning wanted to quit, he was worried about being looked down upon by the two, so under Wang Liang's inducement, he also agreed to participate in this plan. Originally, the three planned to rob Wei Wei of the business money of the ramen shop downstairs of his apartment, but Yang Ning suggested that because they often ate at that ramen shop, they were easy to recognize.
Therefore, Wang Liang suggested that they go to the homes of rich Japanese people to rob, and kill everyone after robbing, so as to avoid being discovered.
Wei Wei didn't object to killing, but Yang Ning wanted to quit because he was afraid. Wang Liang first said "righteously" that it didn't matter if he quit, and then threatened Yang Ning that if they didn't do it together, if they were found out, they would have to tell about stealing with Yang Ning before, and Yang Ning would also be imprisoned and expelled.
But Wang Liang told Yang Ning that if they did it together, they would return to China and change their names after killing them, and there would be nothing to do, so there was no need to be afraid at all. Under Wang Liang's words, Yang Ning returned to the plan.
Wang Liang was also the one who chose Matsumoto Shinjiro's house, he and Yang Ning saw the Mercedes-Benz car driven by Matsumoto Shinjiro many times, he judged that the car was worth millions of yuan, and thought that the owner was rich, so he and Yang Ning tracked down to Matsumoto Shinjiro's house.
Finding that Shinjiro Matsumoto lives in a big house, the two feel that they have found a rich robbery target. After a few days of stepping on the spot, the three of them learned the basic situation of Matsumoto Shinjiro's family.
They believe that Matsumoto Shinjiro is small and easy to deal with, and that he doesn't come home until after midnight almost every day, and that he only has his wife and two children at home before he returns.
Therefore, they plan to go to Matsumoto Shinjiro's house first** women and children, and then ambush Matsumoto Shinjiro who is returning home. They don't think there should be any problems with it.
In addition, Matsumoto Shinjiro's house is a distance from the neighbors, and they can't alarm the neighbors if they make a little noise, which is a favorable condition for committing the crime, and also makes them determined to attack Matsumoto Shinjiro's house.
Wang Liang learned from his friends with Chinese underworld figures that a common method of disposing of corpses was to sink them to the bottom of the sea with handcuffs and dumbbells, so he decided to use this method to dispose of corpses.
He bought handcuffs, dumbbells, and wire, and asked Yang Ning to buy daggers and rope. At 11 p.m. on the day of the crime, they opened the window and entered Matsumoto's home.
They first came to the bedroom of the two children, the girl was awakened and shouted loudly, Yang Ning, who was walking in the front, knocked the girl unconscious with a punch, and the bruises on the girl's face came from this punch.
The boy was then awakened and shouted, and Wang Liang strangled the boy's neck with a rope, and the large swath of saliva and urine at the scene was left behind before the boy was strangled to death. Wei Wei went up and held down the boy's hands and feet.
Wang Liang scolded Wei Wei not to shake and told him to deal with the women in the family. Shinjiro Matsumoto's wife was taking a bath and did not hear the child's scream. They burst into the bathroom, dragged her out of the bathtub and pressed her to the floor, took turns assaulting her, and forced her to ask where the money was in the house.
A harrowing family tragedy. When Shinjiro Matsumoto's wife was violated, she resolutely resisted, and even if she was beaten by the three, she always maintained a resolute look.
However, when she learned that her child had been killed, she was completely devastated, forced to be questioned alive, and rolled on the ground in pain and refused to reveal the whereabouts of the money. Wang Liang brutally attacked her head with a dumbbell, and she still insisted.
In the end, Wang Liang drowned her in the bathtub. When Shinjiro Matsumoto returned home, he was also ambushed by the violent attacks of the three. Wei Wei slammed him on the head with a dumbbell until he was unconscious.
Subsequently, Wang Liang dragged Matsumoto Shinjiro's daughter in front of him and threatened him to give him at least a few million or else strangle her. This tragedy is heart-wrenching and also reveals the dark side of human nature.
Wang Liang had no mercy and first tortured Matsumoto Shinjiro's daughter to the point of dying, in order to threaten Matsumoto. Matsumoto Shinjiro was terrified and begged Wang Liang to spare his daughter.
Wang Liang was in a hurry, and in front of Matsumoto Shinjiro's eyes, he strangled his daughter with his own hands. At this time, Matsumoto Shinjiro, with the same anger and despair as his wife, endured the punches and kicks of the three of them, and smashed dumbbells wildly until he passed out and did not speak again.
Seeing this scene, the three of them could only forcibly press Matsumoto Shinjiro into the bathtub and drown him alive. However, the trio did not know that Shinjiro Matsumoto did not actually die at the scene of the crime.
In this annihilation, the three of them grabbed a total of 40,000 yen, equivalent to more than 2,000 yuan. Wang Liang then divided the money between Yang Ning and Wei Wei, and the rest went to himself.
Under the interrogation of **, he confessed all the facts of the crime and helped find Yang Ning's whereabouts. He was sentenced to life imprisonment for his major meritorious service.
However, Yang Ning's fate was very different, and he was immediately sentenced to death. Years later, Wei Wei was executed in Japan, leaving behind only a letter from home with only one word on it: "Repentance."
