The killings were placed in Shenzhen, in Guangdong province, between 1999 and 2003. Four of the eleven victims were women and seven were men. At the opening of the hearing in March 2008 Wu said he had acted either for money or in anger, and he was sentenced to death.
A single Xinhua News Agency dispatch of March 20, 2008 is the whole of the accessible record. Searches in Chinese return nothing further. Chinese courts do not publish judgments in cases of this kind, no confirmation of the execution has been reported, no victim is named, and and the method is not recorded anywhere, so none is asserted here.
The count of eleven rests on what he said at the opening of his own hearing, not on any published evidence, and it should be read as a figure announced rather than one established. The entry is kept on that basis.
