A Chinese lesbian has been sentenced to death for stabbing her ex-lover 196 times when she was denied gambling money.
Wang Lei, 26, was viciously stabbed 196 times by her ex-girlfriend Fang Yao, 28, when they met to discuss money, a friend told the Daily Mail.
Knife-wielding Fang stormed after her ex from the ninth floor of a hotel to the ground floor.
She slashed the pretty gambling addict in the neck and torso. Wang died at the scene in a pool of blood and her ex-lover made a run for it.
The murder occurred in the early morning hours of Jan. 30, 2018 in Yongzhou, Hunan Province.
Fang was busted later that day.
She was found guilty of intentional homicide and sentenced to death with a two-year reprieve by the Yongzhou Intermediate People’s Court at a first trial on December 20, according to court papers.
At the end of the two-year term, the sentence will be reduced to life imprisonment if the individual does not commit further crimes within the period.
But for Fang, the fly in the ointment has been her victim’s family: they want the killer to fry.
Wang’s parents said they were unsatisfied by the court’s decision and insisted that Fang had to die.
“My daughter died tragically under Fang’s knife. Fang’s parents have not even said ‘sorry’ to us since the incident took place,” Wang’s farmer father wrote on social media.
“I hope the court can give Fang a death sentence and execute her immediately to let the murderer pay the price of life.”
One of the dead woman’s best friends agreed.
“The ruling was not severe enough,” Tang Liping said.
“A death sentence with a reprieve will be reduced to life imprisonment. Life imprisonment will then be reduced to fixed-term imprisonment.”
She added: “We can’t let a killer out of the jail in, for example, 15 years to hurt more people.”
The court heard that Fang became a gambling addict in 2017 and borrowed piles of money from the victim.
When Wang refused any more loans, she was murdered.
Fang owed nearly $300,000 to Wang and other friends. None of the money was paid back.
