#353: CHAINED Woman Found In Shed Of Tiktoker’s Home, Went Viral, Then Disappeared From Internet

24:26She had this very, like, sweet-looking face, very soft features, double eyelids, a round face, a small mole in the corner of her mouth. and the missing persons report stated she went to school one day and just never came home. Netizens did a comparison of the facial proportions. So this is like, I know it's kind of tricky to see if this is like viable, but usually the proportion of like your chin to your lip to ratio, they say it does get bigger as you age, but it stays pretty consistent. Like the gap between your nose and your top lip, it stays pretty consistent. You know, these types of proportions in your face and they put the missing posters, missing poster flyer picture as well as the chained woman's picture that was screen grabbed from the video and they looked kind of similar I'm not gonna lie to you so like okay maybe this is the woman and it's not Miss Young because nobody believes the county with anything they say they don't even believe that this is Miss Young because if she's human trafficked do you think that they would put her real name on the marriage certificate get out of here no they wouldn't the chained woman was also said to have a thick Sichuan accent and the missing girl was from that region.

25:31So now the authorities are getting even more dragged because it looked like the internet was doing more for this woman than they were, which the internet was. So they were forced to come out with a third statement. They said, Miss Young has been identified. And that's not her name. Sorry, guys. Sorry. Sorry. Don't hate us. Okay. They're saying the name that they gave first time was not it. Yeah. What? Yeah. And it's not my fault. Not my fault. Not my fault, Guys, it was the county registration person's fault. It's not my fault. Her real name is Xiao Hua Mei. We're going to call her Mei. And she's from the Yunnan province.

26:07Now, both of her parents are dead, and a report claimed that a neighbor on the request of Mei's parents went out to find Mei a good husband. You know, her parents were worried because Mei wasn't a good catch. She was battling some mental illnesses. She had slurred speech. So the neighbor and Mei went out to search for her husband, and in the process they got separated, right? You know how that happens. And the neighbor never called the police to let them know. Never let Mei's parents know either. Just came back home and was like, yeah, she's married. Mei's parents had no idea to whom, to where, like nothing.

26:41And to show you a map, to get from the province that Mei was originally from with the neighbor to the place she was found, it was across the country. And China is a big country. The county also claimed that Mei lost her teeth due to a genetic issue and not abuse. And other than that, they said that she was in a good mental and physical state and like, guys, move on. Where are the Kardashians? Move on, everyone. Nothing to see. They also claimed that they did DNA testing and all eight children were Mays. And I still don't know what the county was thinking. This was just not a great announcement.

27:17And the public, they still didn't understand. Okay, if this is true, why did nobody care that May was gone? and also how did she get from the other side of china to this village and you know what here's a really good question why the f*** was she chained like none of this answers why the f*** she was chained none of it so because she was missing she can be chained because she's mentally ill she can be chained like what are you saying and mind you up until this point nothing was happening to mr d he was a free man with no consequences in fact oddly during this time um a wedding company had asked him to be a him to be a spokesperson a wedding company the public went insane they said how can a scum who chains his wife up and treats her like a birth giving machine talk about happy marriages what on earth is going on right now but back to the chained woman who is she so was she li ying whose face matched up according to the netizens or was she may you know li ying's uncle came forward to ask for a dna test because based on the videos and photos he was sure that was his niece who had been missing since she was 12.

28:19You know, the one that was walking home from school. Again, this announcement only made people question the county more. Everything, everything that the county said just felt so fishy at this point. Even if they start telling the truth, nobody would believe them. That's how people felt. So the county issued a fourth statement, February 10th of 2022. They said, hey everyone, calm down, okay? This woman is not Li Ying. Jeez, this is Mei. We found Mei's half-sister, we did a DNA test, and it confirmed that this woman is not Li Ying, but Mei. Who, I mean, technically, by all definitions, went missing, but it was just never reported.

28:54And okay, fine. You know how he said there was no human trafficking involved? Maybe there was a little. We don't know. We're gonna look into it, okay? So it just left a bad taste in everyone's mouth, because in the beginning, the county was like, oh my god, absolutely. You guys are, the county was literally gaslighting the internet. Like, you guys are crazy. There's no human trafficking what are you talking about and now now that people are getting upset and the the anger the outrage is not dying down they're like we will um it's a good point we're gonna look into it you know but still no answers if this is may and she did go missing because her neighbor took her out of the city or the village who took her why didn't the neighbor report her missing why didn't she call the police what happened from that day that she went missing to all the way to today because that's decades and how come mr d is not arrested like what has this woman gone through Let the woman speak.

29:42It was so frustrating that a few volunteers drove all the way to the village, tried to break into the hospital that May, the chained woman, was in, that was heavily guarded, which, by the way, and they snuck in, tried to talk to May, but they were kicked out, and those volunteers went missing for a week. They lost contact with their friends, their family. They stopped posting online, wouldn't talk to anyone. They went dark for a week. They were arrested, right? Yeah. Wow. Which of course, this incident blew up even more. Two women tried to save a woman and now these two women are in jail with God knows what happening to them.

30:18So this incident blows up more. Meanwhile, other netizens are getting riled up. The DNA results were never posted and even Mae's sister said that she had DNA taken from her and the police told her that's her half-sister, but they never provided the actual physical results. And everyone that knew Mae said that when she was younger, it just doesn't make sense. Like, this doesn't feel like it's May. So what if the county is just lying all over again? The public was dead set that this was Li Ying, and all the trust in the local officials was out the window and gone, and nobody was trusting them ever again.

30:49And then scandal after scandal and discrepancies, and then people started doing the math. They're like, wait, if this is May, and they said that she went missing in this year and she was this old, if you do the math with all her children, that means that she had her first kid in her 20s, and then she had back-to-back kids in her 40s? That doesn't even make sense. People are like, I don't even understand. And she wasn't even going to the hospital for the kids, for seven of her kids. So she's in her 40s having like a peak in fertility out of nowhere and then giving birth in the shed? What's going on?

31:27So from 42 years old to about 50 years old, she gave birth to seven kids? Like none of this is making sense. Are we sure that this is May? Like people were just getting more and more confused. And then internationally, it became a whole thing. So this got so much attention nationally. And it also happened to coincide with the Beijing Winter Olympics. A lot of the big publications internationally, I believe the New York Times was one of them. And they had posted articles that were titled, and I quote, Who is the real China? Eileen Gu or the Chained Woman? And a quote started circulating. When no one is paying attention to the chained woman, people could see her on the internet.

32:07But when the whole world is paying attention to her, we can no longer see her. A lot of allegations were that China was censoring and suppressing the story, especially after it went a little bit more international. With enough outrage, they kind of had to do something. Even though they were suppressing the story as much as they think they could have, I think. Okay, personally, allegedly, they were suppressing the story. People were still outraged. They were not getting over it. So the province came out. So this is basically like it going from a county investigation to like a state investigation.

32:33The province came out and was like, hey, we're going to investigate. Don't worry. We got this. Trust us. The public was a bit more optimistic that there would be results. And a week later, results came out. A 6 ,000 word detailed report on their investigation. So finally, the truth had come. The chained woman was Mei from Yunnan. The DNA showed that the woman was Mei and not Li Ying And as for the picture that showed that Li Ying and the chained woman were similar in appearance Apparently it was edited before it was posted So the viral picture that was circulating with the proportion lines and everything That was kind of altered a bit So it's a bit misleading So what the hell happened to Mei?

33:16Her parents had gotten divorced Mei moved to a new city with just her mom And at the age of 17 Everyone who knew her said that She was a very physically and mentally well young girl She gets married at 17 That marriage lasted about two years And when she divorces and joins her mom again Everyone is shocked They're like, this is not the maid that we knew She has slurred speech She has very different behavioral discrepancies I mean, they believe that she was suffering from If not one or many mental illnesses So a year later, a neighbor named Sang Sang took her to a neighboring village by request of Mei's mom.

33:52Mei is like, listen, Mei needs a husband. She's getting old. She's not a good catch. Take her to like one of the villages and see if someone will marry her, you know? Please. And the neighbor, Sang, was not just a neighbor. They were a human trafficker. Wow. They had already done a prison stint for child trafficking. And that is how 21-year-old Mei became a trafficking victim. Sang sold Mei to a man in a local village for$620. And after about four months May ran away and somehow She wandered around 400 miles away From where the first purchase happened And a couple took her in This is a restaurant owner And for a month she was okay She was eating, you know, she was being housed She was helping out around the restaurant And then they decided to sell her to migrant workers At a nearby construction site Basically she was sold again To construction workers And these construction workers were like Let's take her to our hometown which is the village that Mr.

34:47D lived in. And they were like, we don't really want her, we don't really need her, so let's sell her to someone in the village. They sold her to Mr. D's dad when he was still alive. So Mae had been sold like an animal three times. And finally, she was sold to Mr. D as the wife. Now, on the registration forms, she was forced to use a fake name so that nobody knew who she was because, you know, it's illegal to buy a wife. And from there, it just seemed like her life was pretty horrible. It wasn't as horrible as being chained up because it seems like she gave birth to her son in a hospital. And at that hospital, because of China's one-child policy, they put an IUD into her body, which means she can't get pregnant again.

35:26It's like those little copper things that they stick in your cervix. And about 10 years later, the IUD was ineffective. So we don't know when she started getting chained up. It could have been like a year after she gave birth to her son, six months. It could have been like five years. But we know that she was chained for a while. The IUD became ineffective and she was having this surge of reproductive hormones and she was getting assaulted. And she gave birth seven more times from the time that she was 34 years old to the time that she was 43 years old. The longest gap between kids was 14 months, which is insane.

36:03Before she was chained up And if she had not been found by a TikToker She had no idea how many more years Or how much longer she would even survive being chained up Once the report was released The authorities confirmed that they did arrest Mr. D for abuse As well as several other county leaders Who did the investigation They carried it out the way they did As well as people who were willing to turn a blind eye On marriage registrations Like these people that worked in the marriage registration office They knew what was going on They didn't ask her for her ID because they knew that she was a purchased woman.

36:34This case drew a lot of attention to the fact that in these villages, just all around the world, not just in China, it is still not uncommon to buy wives, to buy human beings. And just in this province, since 1986, close to 50 ,000 women have been sold and bought by traffickers. And that's just the ones we know of. Even villagers who knew said that they weren't surprised. This isn't something new or wild. They said in villages women are sold like pigs and dogs because they saved the village Because what kind of woman wants to live in a village and have a bunch of kids so that they can work in the fields?

37:11No woman But Mr. D will probably get off light because in the criminal law of China It reads that the crime of buying abducted women and children shall be sentenced to a fixed term imprisonment of not more than three years Are you freaking kidding me? Sometimes it's jail. Sometimes it's public service so what yeah in this like province area so i mean this is basically kidnapping yeah and assault sexual essay it's kind of a loophole from what i read and tell me if my research is incorrect on this one because it was getting really complex because it's like the code of law and it's constantly changing and also translation i did have professional translators with help me on this one but kidnapping a woman you get a higher sentence but for some reason when you buy a kidnapped woman like it's like a different sentence so when you're the kidnapper you get a different sentence i feel like worse that's what i'm saying but it's like it's kind of a weird like a really weird thing i don't know why a lot of people in china are saying this is the case that really showed the true colors that a woman is still considered less than a panda and even two parrots and to make things worse some netizens even took to the internet to blame the chained woman they said now that the case is clear did the public get what they want just because of your so-called morality and wokeness the family is torn apart the children don't have a mother and the man doesn't have a wife and the children don't have a father and you know what the most pitiful person is the chained girl if one of her eight kids had been successful she would have been well taken care of for the rest of her life but that that hope it's all gone now insinuating that since she's been freed, she has no hope that one of her kids will succeed and support her later on.

38:50I can't believe this. Yeah, so if that's true, okay, let's just chain everyone back up. Another person wrote, besides, no matter how righteous the government is, family ties are not as important anymore these days. There's already no love from the mother and now the father's gone. What will the children feel? Probably not good. To that someone responded, finally someone with brain cells, they wrote, The young children are innocent, but the kidnapped mother is more innocent. To sympathize with her best is to stab the chained mother. And that is the story of the TikToker who chained a woman up and almost got away with it.

39:32Wow, that is so dark. I don't even know how to like feel about this case or how to dissect this case because there's so many different weird levels to this. And just, I think definitely just the fact that it was happening during the Beijing Winter Olympics, it just adds such a even more depressing, like... Anytime when there's a crime happening, it feels like there's like 10 worlds going on. Like, how can all these things happen in the same world? Just doesn't make sense.

40:11I'm going to play you the video of this woman's last words, and I don't even speak Chinese, but for some reason, it just like got to me. My fiance showed me this. I had no idea what crime she committed. I had no idea why she was about to die, but just watch.

40:35Do you want your family gor Redo? I hope my family will protect me very well 날yderman Do you have any questions? Do you have any questions? What did you ask for? Why did you ask for the result? I don't know. I don't know. You just said that you wanted to leave. You would like to leave. Really? Why are you so happy?

41:16See you onени

41:37so this clip goes viral and just to give you some context this woman right here is a hospital worker that's about to be executed and she was asked if she had any last words and she just responds really emotionlessly like she's no longer even here on the planet like she's accepted her fate she just says i hope my parents are doing well like i feel remorse for my parents i feel sorry to them. And that was it. It's like the most standard textbook type of response. But the interviewer who worked for the news station decided to push on, to press on. So she brings up this woman's boyfriend, the one that was about to be executed for murder because they killed somebody together.

42:16And the interviewer says, I know I probably shouldn't tell you this, but just, you know, cause you're going to die anyway. Your boyfriend is no longer being executed. His sentence was commuted to life in prison. And you just see this woman's face. She starts crying like tears of joy, of happiness. She's like nodding and crying and it's oddly emotional and oddly moving. She said, at least one of us is going to live and I'm not holding him back anymore. 30 minutes later, she was executed. And this huge clip almost became like a morality debate for years to come. Like, is this woman evil? Is she not evil?

42:53Did she deserve this? I mean, it seems like she has a soul. She's like so excited that her boyfriend's gonna live. Is her boyfriend evil? Did he manipulate her? Did she manipulate him? So let's answer all those freaking questions because it gets wild. It all started at the hospital, the freaking hospital. So Dr. Fang is like a big name in the hospital. I mean, his name wasn't on the building or anything like that, but he ran the hospital technically. He was the director of the hospital personnel department. He was very well compensated for his position And he was able to negotiate like a ton of benefits when he took this job.

43:26So he's walking around shoulders tall like he owns the goddamn place. I mean, he is he is an accomplished guy. I will give him that. He grew up in China, graduates college. And he's like, I'm going to go to the United States. He goes, he starts going through the ranks and he eventually ends up at Columbia University to do research. Later goes to Harvard University to study molecular biology. What does that even mean? Then he gets married to an ophthalmologist, right? and then the two of them just have kids. Listen, they're like winning the American dream. And then he gets a call from his old college in China.

43:59And they're like, we want you back. We want to give you a prestigious directorial position. Like, we miss you. We heard you've been doing great things in the United States. Come back. So he couldn't say no. His wife is confused. Like, what do you mean you can't say no? Our kids want to be here. Our kids are practically American. You know, their whole lives are here. My practice is here. Do you not care that I'm a fucking ophthalmologist? Like, hello? no like what do you mean you're not gonna say no and he ends up going he's like yeah whatever i'm taking the kids i'm sure you'll find your way back to china too because you just like need us so much and the wife was like absolutely not uh needless to say it resulted in a pretty messy divorce obviously so dr fang goes back to china gets into his little workplace and he loves it i mean immediately everybody respects him they all praise him with these powerful words like Dr.

44:48Fang you were born to be a leader I don't know Nowadays after all those cult stories I'm like anytime I hear someone was born To be a leader I'm like you gotta run the other way You gotta go as far away from that person As possible because I don't think that's a good thing Anymore They're like Dr. Fang you are someone I would Blindly follow You're so smart I mean he was intelligent He was you know competent he was Respectful he was a natural leader Something they say it was normal to see nurses and other doctors just excitedly greeting Dr. Fang in the hallways. But there was always like this one, one employee that was a bit more lively, a bit more cheerful than the rest.

45:27She looked like she freaking loved her job, which is rare. And well, being head of the personnel department, he was like, I like that. I like that energy. I wish everybody had that energy. That's how I pump up the vibes in this hospital. So when his 40th birthday came around, Dr. Fang's like, I'm going to go out with all my coworkers and we're going to get drunk. He's like, hey, that random girl that always greeted me so excitedly, looks so happy to be at work. What's her name? Let's freaking invite her to the party. So her name was Guoshuang. I'm going to call her SG because, listen, I'm going to trigger this guy with my pronunciations the whole time.

46:04So SG was 22 years old. She's just trying the best that she could. I mean, who isn't at 22? Like, who's just living the best life? I mean, that's what she was doing. It's 2005. She graduates from college. She studied medicine, but she didn't go to med school. She studied nursing, but she didn't go to nursing school. So she was kind of stuck in the middle. Like I can't go be a nurse. I can't really have these title jobs, but I want to work in the hospital. So she gets an opening at this very hospital and her parents are retired at this point. She's feeling the pressure. She's like, I got to provide for them.

46:34So they're getting old. She's down to take anything at this point. She sees this position and it was, it's kind of like a position where you're just administration, but not even really. you're an assistant to administration. You're doing some paperwork here and there, but you're fetching coffees. You're cleaning up messes, literal messes. It wasn't prestigious. It wasn't in the field that you wanted, but at least it was in her hospital. So she was a part-time worker, a temporary worker, which meant the pay was even less. She had no benefits, no control over her schedule. She didn't even know if she was going to even work 20 hours that week.

47:05She could have just been cut from the schedule. But SG was the type that felt like if I work hard, they're going to make me full-time so she puts up with all the horrible treatment all the being the end of the group having to fetch people's coffees you know and every single day she saw any superiors in the hallways she would just be so excited like hello mr dr fang like happy to be at work so when dr fang invites her to his 40th birthday party i mean she's freaking over the moon this meant her hard work is finally paying off she's gonna go make this amazing impression on her superiors and hopefully she would get that full-time position, right?

47:40She didn't know that Dr. Fang wasn't thinking about a full-time position, but rather a position for being his girlfriend. So during his birthday party, he just kept pushing more and more drinks on SJ. And I feel like it's similar to Korean culture. SJ found it really hard to turn down his superior's drinks when he kept insisting that she take another shot and another shot. And she's with her work bosses. They're all doctors. She felt safe. I mean, think about it. Even if she's drunk and she tripped and fell, they knew what to do, right? They could clean her up. If she had alcohol poisoning, they knew what to do.

48:13I mean, can you think of a place that you would feel more safe drinking than in a room full of doctors? But SG was still worried when she felt her vision started to blur and she's like walking and tripping over the stools and over the table ledges. She's like, okay, keep calm. Like, it's okay. I got to put a good impression. I got to walk straight. But why did she feel so drowsy? so dr fang couldn't take it anymore he laughs and he gets up and he's like all right party's over i guess you guys have fun on me i'm gonna take the rookie sg home guess she's not used to the way that we party as doctors if i'm right so everyone's waving they're not thinking anything of it i mean this is a nice guy yeah have fun like sg's in good hands sg thought so too she just remembered being in his car and then the next thing she remembered was waking up in his bed and immediately she was crying immediately.

49:03There was no like, oh my God, what happened? She knew what happened. Come on. So instead of driving SG home, Dr. Fang thought, why not bring her to my house? She's already losing consciousness. It'll be so easy to rape her. And in the morning, I can just tell her that she came on to me. Like he knew what he was doing was bad, but whatever. That's how the world worked. That's what he's thinking to himself. Besides, SG would probably be so embarrassed that she slept with her boss that she would scurry out of his apartment, he had no idea that SG would wake up bawling her eyes out. That was not according to the plan.

49:34I mean, 23 year old SG is laying in that bed. Her life just feels like it's been shattered to glass. Her hope in the world was gone. Not only is she traumatized, but this is like the worst way to be traumatized. She's thinking if I can't even trust a respectable man, my boss, who on this planet can I trust? I mean, she just had this image of Dr. Fang as a mentor, were a leader, someone who looked out for his subordinates, but then that just shattered like glass. It's like everyone in the world is so full of deception and nobody is good and you can't trust any. She was having like a quarter life crisis.

50:07She was genuinely having a moment of like, what the fuck? She thought rapists were people that looked really gross and they come up to you and they harass you and cat call you and they like spike your drink. She never thought it would be her respectable boss who studied at Columbia and Harvard and everybody respected him. Dr. Fang was shocked too. Not at himself for being a disgusting, deplorable human being, but I guess he really didn't think that SG would have such a strong reaction to the assault. He thought that she would just blame herself and push it under the rug, which honestly is so sick when you think about it.

50:39So to try and diffuse the situation, Dr. Fang offers SG a compromise. He's like, she's too emotional she is unpredictable i don't know if she's gonna go tell the cops i don't know if she's gonna go tell my bosses so to keep her quiet he's like i'm so sorry i'm so sorry that this happened to you you know violence against women is never okay i take it very seriously but how about i help you out i can try to make sure that you're offered full time the minute a position opens up as she left dr fang's apartment and she didn't agree she didn't say anything she just like literally left in tears but when she gets home you know she's thinking about it and this is the part that people really come at SG for.

51:17They say she must have not hated the assault if she went back for more. But SG, from that point, decided to sleep with Dr. Fang now. Psychologists say that there's like a ton of reasons that victims will actually choose to sleep with their assaulters after their trauma. One of the main ones being, if I choose it this time, then it feels like the last time it happened, the actual assault, was an assault, right? Like, it makes me feel like I'm regaining the power. And if I chose it this time, that means I didn't actually experience this intense, unconsensual thing last time, right? It's not that bad.

51:50It's like a way for your brain to protect yourself. Things like assault are so nuanced, I feel like we're just touching the surface. We have stories where people, victims fight the whole way through and immediately go to the police after. But in most cases, I think it's because so many people know their assaulter or their lives are connected with the rapist that it just becomes so nuanced and complicated. if it's a boss that could jeopardize your career if it's a schoolmate that could ruin your reputation make you a social outcast if it's a family member that can uproot the entire family ecosystem i mean we're just it's too complex right so people seem to do things that almost seem unfathomable to other people but all i'm saying is nobody really knows what they would do in that situation unless they've been in that situation so sg starts an intimate relationship with dr feng And I think there was another reason for it too, other than her trying to convince herself that she had the power here.

52:44Psychologists agree that this is very normal for victims who are assaulted by people who have power over them. So Dr. Fang had offered SGA a full-time position at work. And at first she was disgusted and traumatized. But maybe when she got home, she reasoned with herself like, listen, this terrible, horrible thing has happened to you, but it's in the past. Like you can't even change it. What can you do? There's no way to go back and rewrite history. you can't go to the cops they're not going to believe you you can't go to your boss he's your boss you know it's like his word against yours this is rape culture so so yeah you've been assaulted humiliated and now you're unemployed if you do something or maybe you get something out of it maybe you can win something right take advantage of the situation if you sleep with him maybe he will feel forced to give you a full-time position yeah it's like your brain trying to yeah survive basically yeah and like try to like reason okay well if i get something out of it then it's fine but from the outside what a lot of people saw was oh this is a girl who's like sleeping her way to the top and she's mad that people found out about it or that it stopped working but before then sg was promoted to a full-time position it's so frustrating so people were really coming at her for the fact that she did get promoted to a full-time position now dr fang being the complete asshole that he is.

54:05I don't even know what to say. Like he's a freaking wad. Okay. He didn't even give her the full benefits. He was like, Oh, since you're transferring like to part-time to full-time, I'm just going to like give you full-time. But usually all the full-time people that were hired, they got housing benefits. They got an allotment for housing. They got all of these things. They got amazing different health cares. She got nothing. She just got a full-time position. And she was just grateful to have 40 hours a week where she was guaranteed to get paid as long as she did her job well. So now, with this full-time status, SG is hopefully hoping that she can transfer to a different hospital soon, one that's connected to this one.

54:44She wanted to see what Dr. Fang could do about it. This would be the least that he could do after traumatizing her for the rest of her life, right? She just wanted a full-time job and to transfer so that she didn't have to be around him anymore. But Dr. Fang was getting annoyed. She was asking for too much, and essentially, he slammed the door shut in her face. So SG tries to move on, she doesn't have to see him anymore because he's upset with her for demanding too much for demanding too much you know they would just nod at each other awkwardly in the hallways and that was about it so all the while this is happening he just blew it out so all the while this is happening she goes out with her cousin one night to blow out some steam and they run into zi zhan wang wang zi zhang and we're gonna call him zi so they know each other's cousins anyway wait, he's like a nice guy.

55:31He's freaking 18 years old. And SG at this point is 25 or something or 23. So again, a little bit, a little bit, he's very young. That's all I have to say, but it's fine. He's of age. They start dating and, and SG just felt like Z was mature. He was someone that liked to take care of others and take care of her. And he was listening to her. She felt secure enough that a month after dating, she just told him everything. This is what happened at work. This is what Dr. Feng did to me. And then two weeks later, she brings him a pregnancy test. It was positive. She knew it was in Z's. The only person that it could be possibly was Dr.

56:08Feng's. She goes to Dr. Feng and she tells him, and without even a moment's thought about it, about if she wanted it or like how terminating a pregnancy can be so traumatic for patients, nothing. She had no power over her body. He dragged her to the hospital and forced her to get an abortion right then and there. and this was when all hell broke loose. SG was a freaking mess. Like I think all of that trauma was behind this like powerful wall and she was trying to hold on tight and then eventually this, this is the straw that broke the camel's back. So she's telling Z about everything that's going on and like he's listening intently.

56:45You could see his ears are turning red. Like he's angry. I mean, who wouldn't be? Like what kind of boyfriend would it be? He felt genuine, pure hatred for the first time in his life. That's how he describes it, like genuine hatred. And that is how the whole tragic story began. Both of them say that it was they that brought up the whole idea of killing Dr. Fang. SG said, it was me. I hated Dr. Fang. I wanted to get, you know, revenge. I wanted to ruin him or at least make sure that he could never assault someone again. If you know what I mean, I wanted to castrate him. Does that make sense? I told Z what I thought about it and he asked if this was the only way that I could move on and to heal and to be a whole person again and I said yeah that is that's the only way and I want you to help me she claims that Z thought about it for a while and finally he agreed and they started planning meanwhile Z said we both felt like Dr.

57:42Feng needed to die in order to like let this darkness get out of SG's mind I mean she needed this she wanted to kill him so together we started planning so even now it feels like z is like kind of covering for her now i mean regardless of who started the planning it was in motion and there was no stopping it 23 year old sg and 18 year old z went out together to buy a large hammer and some surgical blades they genuinely wanted to castrate this guy they didn't want to kill him they just wanted to take his little thing off so that he could never hurt another woman again september 30th 2006 at 4 p.m after work sg tells Dr.

58:16Fang that she needs to show him something. And it's very important that she had to drive him there and show him it. I don't think that Dr. Fang wanted to go, but I think that he was curious because what if he didn't go, she would go to the police. What if she was unstable? What if she was showing him like a shrine? What if she was showing him, you know, evidence that she had of the assault? So he hopped into her car and he's like, uh, who's the guy in the back? Oh, don't worry about him that's my little brother okay okay that's weird and the three silently head off in the car that sg is driving with dr fang in the passenger seat and z in the back just sitting quietly he's not even talking but then slowly as they're getting out of the city and you see less buildings less people walking around less cars on the road and you see wooded areas and fields and nobody for miles dr fang starts to get nervous uh where are we going and z said he talked first.

59:13He said, Dr. Fang, I know what you did. And we want to make something clear to you. We're giving you a chance right now that you're going to make SG a formal employee with full benefits within three business days and let her transfer to another hospital with housing accommodations and everything. And if you do that within the next three business days, we're not going to hurt you. So yeah, consider this a threat. I can't do that. Even if I genuinely wanted to, I don't have the authority to do something like that. Okay, then I guess it's too late. And in the backseat, Z takes out the surgical blade and slices Dr.

59:44Fang's neck from behind. And Dr. Fang puts his hand to cover his neck. It's now literally splurting with blood. They said that the blood was getting on the windshield all over the dash. I don't know what he cut, but it was a vein. And Z used this opportunity to grab his wrist, Dr. Fang's wrist, and slash it. And Dr. Fang starts screaming, oh my god, oh my god, you slashed my aorta. I need to stop the bleeding quick. And he successfully is like reaching for everything he's like trying to hold on to his wrist and his neck he opens the door and in this chaos he jumps out of the car into the field nearby so dr fang is literally squirting blood just running through this field now he tries to get a few cars to stop and help him but nobody did they're like this feels like straight out of a horror movie z runs out of the car chases him down and uses the hammer to beat up dr fang's head like literally bashing his head And when he was confident that Dr.

1:00:37Fang was not going to be able to get up and get help or survive any of this, he walked back to SG's car where she was waiting and they just left. They just drove off with Dr. Fang in the field to die. They said that they drove in silence and the smell of the blood was making both of them so nauseous. It just was like that rusty smell, almost metallic. They drove to an abandoned roadside, lit the bloody car, literally the bloody car on fire, and just walked off. they had no plans no thoughts just each other and homicidal vibes honestly they walked back to the city they were arrested within a few days i mean a lot of the hospital staff knew that sg and dr fang were having an affair so it's pretty easy to consider them suspects and connect the dots neither of them tried to hide anything they just immediately confessed and on august 17th 2007 both of them were sentenced to death so it seems like the story is over right i mean kind of but the internet picked up this case and ran with it.

1:01:35I mean, there was kind of this clear divide in the middle. Half of the people were saying things like, evidence? What evidence? I didn't see anything. All I see is one less rapist gone in this world. Who's crying about that? I'm not crying, are you? Killing for love after someone raped your partner is hardly a crime to be executed for. They said they should execute rapists with this level of passion. Some people said, and these are all quotes and translated the one who should die is dead it's the rapist why should we lose more people in this world if he hadn't raped her she wouldn't have lost her mind and killed him i don't see the problem here listen the killers were too young too traumatized to know better but guess who wasn't too young and too traumatized the doctor who raped her some people were kind of in the middle like you know she did commit a crime they do need to get punished they do need to get consequences, but considering the fact that she was raped by this man, I don't think the death penalty, it's a bit too harsh.

1:02:34And then you had the other side of people who were very much victim blaming, seeing things like, well, she kept sleeping with him. Then is she truly traumatized for being raped? Maybe she wasn't even raped. Maybe she was just upset that people found out that she was sleeping for a full-time position. I think that she did this for greed. She just wanted to get promoted and promoted without putting in the work. And then when he stopped promoting her and sending her everywhere she wanted, she killed him. You know, the young boy was dragged into all of this by the black widow. She's pathetic, hateful, manipulative.

1:03:02I mean, she tried to sleep her way to the top and it backfired. So she gets her boyfriend and ruins this guy's life by convincing him to kill. Okay, side note, that comment is so telling because nowhere in that sentence is there any responsibility put on the men in this case, the 18-year-old that physically killed someone, nor the 40-year-old that abused his power and then threatened a woman. like none of that at all like how so they kept going i mean how does a 23 year old find a find a teenager attractive it means that she was looking for someone young and impressionable that she could control she was looking for someone to help her kill she was using her sex appeal to get to this 18 year old she wasn't satisfied until dr fang was dead besides there's no proof of the anyway.

1:03:48I mean, it caused up such a start that Z's appeal was taken up by the Supreme Court, and in the last minute before both of them were scheduled for their death sentences, Z's death sentence was commuted to life in prison. And that was the moment that we saw earlier. So those crying of tears of joy and saying, at least I don't have to drag him down anymore. I'm so happy he gets to live. She was just so happy at the end.

1:04:45I mean to me when I saw that That I've just personally never saw someone's last words, you know, right before an execution. Yes, I've never seen a state criminal execution's last words be that emotionally charged. Usually you have the serial killers who are sick and twisted till the end that are like, I ain't got nothing to say, but I love my mom. Or you have the ones that are like, I feel bad for what I did. I found God, love Jesus, bye. And the fact that her emotional switch went from cold, no emotion, to all of a sudden overflowing of emotion. Like a lot of people, I think they were also saying like the love they have.

1:05:29Is it because she really, really loves him? Some people say that the feeling is that maybe she actually, she did convince him to kill. So now she feels like at least I don't have to. Does that make sense? Like I'm the only one that have to, you know. Bear the death. Yeah. for this it's just so sad i mean okay do i think that what they did was wrong and twisted yeah i do would it have been better if they castrated dr fang probably yeah because he's dead now and he has kids and it's just all around don't kill people but i think it's also telling that they're so young and they truly felt like they had no other way like the fact that she was traumatized and raped and then they feel like they have no other way and they're backed into a corner and the only way to escape this trauma is to kill him that says a lot about society and the justice system because if she had an outlet to just punish him he gets fired from his job he is no longer her boss she gets some sort of support like i think she would have been fine yeah i saw some comment also said that if this case happened today like 2022 uh she probably wouldn't have to been death penalty yeah she probably would have gotten life in prison probably but it's probably not gonna get You know execute it so and that is the story of what happened to just the most Intense last words I have ever heard What do you guys think of it?

1:06:52Do you feel like she has some sort of remorse in her? Do you feel like she has a soul? I mean she was so emotional about her boyfriend not being executed Do you think it was real love? Do you think it was a trauma bond? Do you think she manipulated him and then felt remorse afterwards? I don't know. Let me know in the comments So, let's go.
