During the Spring Festival of 2022, a 1-year-old baby girl in Fujian was poisoned by thallium. The police found that it was poisoned in the milk powder of his aunt Wang Yao.
Today, Ah Mao is quadriplegic, has a variety of sequelae, and is often hospitalized.
In September 2023, the Fuzhou Intermediate People's Court sentenced Wang Yao to death for intentional homicide in the first instance. Red Star News learned that the Fujian High Court of the second instance of this case has been heard in April 2024, and the verdict has not yet been announced.
The 1-year-old girl was "thallium poisoning", and her family urgently asked for medicine
On February 22, 2022, a netizen in Fuzhou posted a message for help, hoping that some netizens could provide a channel to buy Prussian blue, and many netizens began to help find it.
The "test data results" released by the netizen showed that the patient was a 1-year-old girl, and after urine and blood tests, "urine thallium 12800μg/L, blood thallium 1857μg/L". 3 hours later, the netizen posted again that the drug had been found, and left a message: "The police have opened a case for investigation." ”

The girl mentioned in the help message posted by the netizen is Ah Mao.
On February 28 of the same year, he was born in Ling Chen, Wang Chen.
Thallium nitrate was purchased online and poisoned into milk powder
According to the first-instance verdict, Wang Yao has searched for materials related to thallium nitrate, colchicine and other poisons many times, and also searched for online materials such as "My husband and children have passed away, can I inherit the property of my in-laws".
According to public information, thallium is a slow-onset highly toxic substance with insidious symptoms. Thallium is colorless and odorless when dissolved in water, and it is not easy to detect after being drunk.
According to the first-instance verdict, in November 2021, Wang Yao spent 465 yuan to buy 3 grams of colchicine online from a trading company in Xi'an, and in January 2022, he spent 1,700 yuan to buy 25 grams of thallium nitrate from the above company through WeChat.
On February 4, 2022, just after Amao's first birthday, at noon that day, Wang Yao took advantage of the fact that others were out to eat and there was no one at home, and threw thallium nitrate into the can of Amao milk powder. On the same day, Ah Mao developed symptoms such as diarrhea and fever after eating milk powder and was sent to the clinic for treatment, and then transferred to Fuzhou Children's Hospital for treatment.
Thallium was detected in Ah Mao's blood, feeding bottles, milk powder, and the toilet in Wang's home.
Ah Mao was in a coma for a while and was diagnosed after a week in the PICU. After the hospital found out that it was thallium poisoning, they told their families or that it was poisoned, but they didn't believe it, and finally the hospital called the police.
The uncle died "accidentally" and was identified as a death from multiple organ failure caused by poisoning
After Wang Fang was arrested, he confessed to poisoning his brother-in-law, and the "accidental" death of Mao's father Lin Jianwei was brought out more than half a year ago.
According to the first-instance judgment, on March 10, 2021, Wang Yao spent 775 yuan through WeChat to purchase 5 grams of colchicine online from the above-mentioned trading company. On March 18, Wang Yao went to the store and secretly pinched a small pinch of colchicine and put it in Lin Jianwei's rice bowl. That night, Lin Jianwei had severe diarrhea and went to the clinic for treatment.
On June 25 of that year, Lin Jianwei drank beer and ate two servings of crayfish at home at night, and the next day he went to the hospital for diarrhea and vomiting, treated as appendicitis, and transferred to the First Affiliated Hospital of Fujian Medical University on June 27. Only two days later, Lin Jianwei died after rescue efforts failed.
According to the first-instance verdict, in March 2022, thallium was not detected in Lin Jianwei's ashes, and the content of colchicine in blood isolates (plasma) and (blood cells) in his retained blood samples exceeded lethal blood concentrations.
According to an expert review opinion from a forensic appraisal center, Lin Jianwei died of multiple organ failure caused by colchicine poisoning. According to the materials submitted for testing, it cannot be ruled out that he was poisoned again before his death.
The first trial sentenced him to death and paid more than 700,000 yuan in compensation
In April 2023, the Fuzhou Municipal People's Procuratorate indicted Wang Yao, and Ah Mao and her mother Yang Zao filed an attached civil lawsuit. In May 2023, the Fuzhou Intermediate People's Court held a first-instance trial of the case.
The court of first instance held that the expert opinion could be accepted as an inspection report. Although Wang Yao did not confess to poisoning Lin Jianwei again, other evidence corroborated each other and formed an evidence chain to confirm his re-poisoning behavior, which is sufficient to determine that Lin Jianwei's death was caused by Wang Yao's poisoning. The available evidence has not found other circumstances that may cause death, and it should be determined that there is a criminal law causal relationship between Wang Yao's poisoning and the result of Lin Jianwei's death.
Regarding poisoning Ah Mao, Wang Yao once argued that after accidentally shaking all the thallium nitrate into the milk powder can, he was worried that Ah Mao would die if he ate it, so he dug out half of it. In this regard, the court held that after searching for information such as the lethal amount of thallium nitrate several times, he still poisoned him knowing that thallium was dead, and Wang Yao should be found guilty of intentional homicide and an attempt to commit a crime.

The court sentenced Wang Yao to death for intentional homicide in the first instance. In the part of the attached civil lawsuit, the court supported the compensation of more than 700,000 yuan.
Two years after the poisoning incident, the girl was hospitalized with a limp of limps
According to the first-instance verdict, after evaluation, nearly a year after the incident, Ah Mao thallium was poisoned with serious sequelae such as quadriplegia, and it was identified as a first-degree serious injury, constituting a first-degree disability.
The appraisal certificate issued nearly a year after the case showed that Ah Mao still had problems such as poor consciousness content, backward gross motor development, unsteady head up, inability to turn over, and poor control ability. The hospitalization certificate of Fuzhou Children's Hospital in Fujian Province diagnosed him with severe pneumonia, sequelae of toxic encephalopathy, symptomatic epilepsy (secondary epilepsy), etc.
Mao is currently quadriplegic and has a variety of sequelae.
Recently, Ah Mao was hospitalized with pneumonia again and was admitted to the ICU again. Mao's grandmother, Huang Yue, said that she had asked many hospitals, but there was no good treatment. In the past two years, I spent about five or six hundred thousand yuan for Ah Mao, not counting the cost of a nanny.
At present, Amao's family is still waiting for the second-instance verdict.
