Kangjingli Jane Doe was a woman who was found brutally murdered in a garbage dump in Kangjingli, China. She is a confirmed victim of serial killer Hua Ruizhuo.
Case[]
On 12 April, 2001, an elderly villager at a garbage dump on the northeast side of Kangjingli came across the body of a woman. Reportedly, her head had been smashed in and a wire had been tied around her neck. Her case would not be tied to Ruizhou until his confession months later.
Between 1998 and 2001, Hua Ruizhuo would kill 14 women alleged to have been sex workers that he picked up on and around the Yansha Bridge in his white company truck. His motive for the murders is believed to have stemmed from his former girlfriend secretly working as a sex worker before separating from him, thus he formed a hatred of female sex workers, especially those who resembled his girlfriend. His method of killing his victims would be brutal and included beatings, stranglings, forcing foreign objects into their genitals, and some victims being dumped in septic tanks. It is unclear how many of his victims suffered the forced insertion of items and beatings. Ruizhuo is reported to have been arrested and confessed to the murders on 26 July 2001. He was executed by firing squad on 31 January, 2002.
