Beijing — A court in central China said Friday that a Chinese kindergarten teacher who had poisoned 25 of her students, killing one, was executed. A notice posted outside the No. 1 Intermediate Court in the Henan province city of Jiaozuo said Wang Yun's sentence had been carried out Thursday.
Wang, 40, was convicted of putting toxic sodium nitrite in porridge served to children at Mengmeng Pre-school Education on March 27, 2019, following an argument with a colleague identified only by the surname Sun over "student management." While other students recovered fairly quickly, one student, identified only by the surname Wang, died from multiple organ failure after 10 months of treatment, the notice said.
A high-school dropout, Wang had previously poisoned her husband with the same substance bought online two years ago. He survived with mild injuries.
