Yang Xinhai: It all started with theft
He worked in a variety of places, depending on where you were offered work, including in a coal mine. He was first jailed for theft at the age of 20. He had to do field work in Xi’an. He was released three years later in 1991.
He started begging with several teenagers during the day and stealing in the evening. In the same year, he was arrested again and again had to work in the fields, this time in Hebei Province. After he was released again, he was jailed again in 1996 for attempted rape, this time in the Zhumadian region. After three years, in 1999, he was released from his five-year sentence.

Chinese serial killer Yang Xinhai was also called the monster killer because of his brutality. He was one of China's most notorious serial killers.
Yang Xinhai decides to kill
Due to the many years in prison, Yang Xinhai has lost all social contact with family and friends. His girlfriend from home promised to wait for him when he came back. However, when she found out about his terms, she no longer wanted to know about him and married another man. Now Yang Xinhuan made a decision - to kill. His murder victims were poor farming families whom he surprised at night and killed with a hammer, shovel or ax - he didn't care about men, women or children. The main thing was that there were no survivors.
A routine check arrests the biggest serial killer in China
On November 3, 2003, Yang Xinhai was taken to a routine police checkup because he was behaving abnormally. He has been proven to have committed 67 murders and 23 rapes, and has admitted all that he did. On February 1, 2004, Yang Xinhai was sentenced to death. He was shot in the neck on February 14, 2004.
