Biography

Hu, originally raised in a poor family from Chongqing, married a woman in 1993 and later fathered a child in 1995.[4] In that same year, he was charged for theft and then sentenced to eight years in prison.

Murders

Three years into his sentence, Hu escaped prison and fled to Sichuan in June 1998, carrying on his criminal escapades.[1] In May 2000, Hu stole nearly 10,000 yuan from the philatelic store in a Yuechi County Post Office. On December 1, 2003, he robbed a Jintai Jewelry Shop in Yuechi County of more 400,000 yuan, while also murdering the shop owner Fu Jianguo and guard Yang Lin.[4][3]

On January 13, 2005 Hu entered the Yuechi County post office and attempted to rob the vault, killing two police officers Cheng Zeping and Zhang Yong that were present. In April, he attempted to rob a jewelry store in Guang'an, but the plot failed.[2] On September 6, Hu killed three union guards (including Jiang Weiyang and Zheng Ying) at the White Temple Credit Union. Afterwards he robbed the place of more than 180,000 yuan and fled.[3]

Execution

Four days later, Hu was arrested by authorities.[2] On December 7, 2005, he was sentenced to death, he was deprived of political rights for life, and all his personal property was confiscated.[3]

Before the verdict, an interview with him was conducted, in which he confessed to everything. On April 14, 2006, Hu was executed.[4]
