According to the New York Post, Zhang Bo and Ye Chengchen, a Chinese couple, were put to death in 2020 for plunging their two kids from a residential tower’s fifteenth story.
Zhang was found guilty of killing his two children, a boy, age one, and a girl, age two. Ye, on the other hand, was found guilty of encouraging Zhang to kill his children because she saw them as “obstacles” to their future.
They have reportedly been put to death by legal injections.
After a protracted appeals procedure that ended in a second trial for Zhang and Ye, the pair was sentenced to death in 2021 but were just executed this week.
Zhang had started seeing Ye outside of his marriage without telling her about his previous union.
Zhang had started seeing Ye outside of his marriage without telling her about his previous union. When Ye learned of it, he forced Zhang to file for divorce from his wife and then pushed him to kill his kids.
Zhang stated that he was asleep at the time of the murder when the kids fell out of the window and that he didn’t wake up until he heard screaming coming from the downstairs.
Zhang had asked to look after his daughter on the day he killed them both, according to the mother of the children.
“The moment I heard my kids were thrown out of the 15th floor by their father and the mistress, I couldn’t find any words to describe my feelings,” she stated.
“I had no idea what my children had gone through from the fifteenth floor.”
