A man surnamed Cao from Sichuan in mainland China was dissatisfied with the fact that he became a dwarf and his wife had a strong personality 24 years ago, which led him to kill his two months pregnant wife and flee amid lowlands. self-esteem and resentment. But the warmth and coldness of the world he experienced during his escape prompted Cao Nan to write an apology letter to his in-laws: “I feel sorry for the two elders.” But he didn’t know that his father-in-law had died of an illness and his mother-in-law was suffering from amnesia due to an illness until he was arrested.
According to the “Guiyang Evening News” report, Cao Nan met his wife surnamed Li who was 3 years younger when he worked in Beijing in 1993, and then married as the family’s son-in-law and lived with Li’s family. However, Cao Nan, who had no job after marriage, relied on his birth family for food and lodging, had no right to speak, and was ridiculed by neighbors as “useless and unstable”, became increasingly dissatisfied with his wife and of the Li family. under the pressure of himself and the outside world, he not only often quarreled with his wife over trivial matters and the idea of divorce.
Li’s family revealed that Cao Nan later became an irritable man who did not take care of his wife when she was ill and often experienced domestic violence. The deceased fled to his aunt’s house to complain about domestic violence a few days before his death. She unexpectedly returned before her father intervened to coordinate her While she was at home, she was killed with a fruit knife by her husband who was alone in the house, causing the tragedy of a corpse and two lives. On the other hand, Cao Nan ran away after taking away his deceased wife’s belongings and all the gold jewelry on the night of Xiaoshu in 1997.
Cao Nan successively fled to Shaanxi, Guangdong and Jiangxi during his 24 years of desperate travel, and worked in various remote areas undercover for a living. Although he got rid of the Li family, he was dominated by the fear of being found out, and he became a dejected person who “didn’t dare say that he didn’t get a salary and lived like a dog with its tail between his tails.” After six months, I wrote a letter to my in-laws to repent.
In the letter that Cao Nan asked his brother-in-law to forward to his in-laws, he said: “Brother-in-law, after receiving the letter, please plead guilty before the two elders on my behalf. I am sorry for the two elders… And when he was arrested in Jiangsu last September, he also asked to see his in-laws, but what he didn’t know was that his father-in-law and brother-in-law had died of illness for the past 24 years, and his mother-in-law also couldn’t recognize it because of Alzheimer’s disease, and could not remember anything that had happened in the past. The court sentenced Cao Nan to life imprisonment and deprived him of his political rights for life in June this year.
