After killing his brother, he calmly threw away the body; imprisoned, gang-raped, and abused the female high school for 4 months; in order to go to the Internet café to play games, brutally killed the teacher, and even claimed that "we are not yet 14 years old, even if we kill people, we don't have to go to jail"... These evil deeds, which even adults are afraid of, are committed by children.
The naïve and evil "evil child"
The 14-year-old girl brutally killed her 11-year-old brother
On April 2, 2018, a court in Shaanxi heard a special homicide case.
On trial was a 14-year-old girl. She brutally murdered her 11-year-old brother.
Only because her brother found herself playing with her mobile phone in the bed, she was afraid that her brother would file a complaint with his parents.
After the little girl finished the terrible acts of chasing her brother with a kitchen knife, throwing her brother off the bridge into the river, and burying the body on the spot after confirming her death, she was calm and calm, as if nothing had happened.
Even in the trial, the girl acted very calmly, without the slightest fear or panic, and even answered all the questions very clearly.
"Minor" and "murderer", two identities in a 14 girl, overlapped together.
What should have been the most innocent age, but the most heinous evil deeds, for such minors, we call "evil children".
The terrible "bad boy" phenomenon:
We're not yet 14 years old, and we don't have to go to jail for killing people
In fact, over the years, the "bad boy" incident has happened many times.
The eerie crimes of a young age, the cruel modus operandi, always appear on the headlines, stinging everyone's nerves.

In the case of three minors in Hunan who killed their teachers for money, one of the perpetrators said when committing the crime: "We are not yet 14 years old, even if we kill people, we do not have to go to jail." ", it is terrifying.
On the evening of October 18, 2015, a tragic incident occurred at a primary school in Shaodong County, Hunan Province, and the body of teacher Li Guiyun was found in her office.
Her hair was all stained red with blood, her body was blue and purple, and there was still blood on the ground. There are obvious clean-up marks at the crime scene, and the prisoners try to hide their crimes.
What no one expected was that in the eyes of the police handling the case, the perpetrators were three students under the age of 14.
The reason for this is that the three teenagers want to make some money to play games in Internet cafes.
"The average child is frightened, but he acts as if nothing has happened, as if nothing had happened." The police officer handling the case at the time said.
The cruel means of killing are in great contrast with the age of the perpetrators: there is no revenge against each other, sudden sticks, punches and kicks, disregard for forgiveness, robbery for money, covering their faces until death, covering the scene, and then going to class and surfing the Internet as usual...
One of the details is chilling. Liu Yu, one of the perpetrators, once said this sentence on the same day: "We are not yet 14 years old, even if we beat people to death, we do not need to go to jail." ”
There have also been horrific cases of "evil children" abroad.
In the winter of 1993, Jon Venables and Robert Thompson, who had just turned 10, became Britain's youngest murderers.
On February 12, 1993, the two young boys who had skipped class arrived at a shopping mall.
When pranks such as vandalism and dirty chairs can't satisfy the duo, they kidnap 2-year-old James Bougel to have fun.
They smeared paint on little James's face, pulled off his shoes and pants, and forced him to eat the stolen batteries... Until James Jr. was tortured to death.
However, this is not enough. The two evil boys placed little James's body on the railroad tracks and covered his bleeding head with stone slabs, hoping that the train would run over in order to create the illusion of an accident.
Throughout the process, the two did not look like 10-year-old children at all, and even after little James did not breathe, the two calmly discussed how to get rid of their suspicions.
Later forensic identification found that there were a total of 42 wounds on James Jr.'s body, most of which were concentrated on the head, accompanied by multiple fractures and puncture marks, and there were also signs of sexual assault on the genitals.
The "Ayase Cement Murder Case" that shocked the entire Japanese society has been adapted into movies, manga, books, etc. many times. Pictured above is the cover of manga "17-year-old woman imprisoned and killed" adapted by manga artist Yoji Kamada based on this incident
In the 1980s, the "evil boy" incident that occurred in Japan shocked the entire Japanese society.
On the night of November 25, 1988, the nightmare of 17-year-old Japanese high school girl Shunko Furuta began.
She was kidnapped by Hiroshi Miyano, Jean Kokura, Shinji Minato, and Kyoshi Watanabe, four high school dropouts who were still minors, and imprisoned in Minato Shinji's home.
From that day on, what awaited Junko was endless abuse.
Beatings were commonplace, and the four evil boys also poured oil on Junko's thighs, hands, and other parts, and constantly lit them with lighters, and Junko's body was full of burns.
In addition to physical torture, they also constantly destroy the defense line of Junko's psychology.
On December 5, a tram rear-end accident occurred inside Higashi-Nakano Station in Tokyo. Hiroshi Miyano said to Junko, "Your father died on that train. It's reported on TV, do you want to watch it? ”
He saw Junko's uneasy expression and asked her, "How are you feeling now?" Junko replied, "I'm very sad." Miyano said, "Actually, I lied to you." ”
Then Hiroshi Miyano, Ogura, and Shinji Minato kept repeating "dead" and "still alive", causing Junko to have a psychological breakdown.
After enduring four months of imprisonment, rape, beatings, burning, and other atrocities, Junko was tortured to death and finally thrown away in a cylinder oil drum sealed with cement.
The atrocity was known as the "Ayase Cement Murder Case."
Due to the seriousness of the case, coupled with the fact that the people involved were all minors at the time, and the crime lasted for a long time and the methods were cruel, it had a great impact on Japanese society at that time.
Behind the appearance of the "evil child"
It is the lack of parental roles
While people are shocked by the "bad boy" case, they are also actively looking for answers: why can these young children commit such atrocities?
Re-examining the facts of the case, it is not difficult to find that most of these "evil children" grew up in similar family environments: their parents cared too little for them and indulged too much.
The parents of the three minors in the Hunan Juvenile Executioner Incident were too busy running for their livelihood to take care of them, and they could only live with their elderly grandparents every day.
Skipping school to play CF in an Internet café is their favorite activity. The motivation for killing the teacher was to get money to go to the Internet café.
Jon, the youngest murderer in British history, was snubbed because of the breakdown of his family, and not only that, his father often rented violent and bloody films to watch at home in order to relieve his depression, and Jon often watched it with his father.
It has been pointed out that the well-known American thriller "Child's Play3" was found in Jon's apartment.
In the Ayase cement murder case in Japan, the four murderers all grew up in an environment where their parents had a bad relationship and their families were broken, and they dropped out of high school and spent their days idle.
At the time of the crime, Minato's parents actually knew that this group of teenagers had imprisoned a girl in their home, but they still chose to ignore it, gave up giving up help, and let a flower girl be tortured and withered by them.
Chinese believe that "in the beginning of man, nature is good", but "good" cannot be understood literally as "good", but a blank piece of paper, and there is no cognition of good or evil.
Numerous studies have shown that when children are young, they do not have the ability to clearly distinguish between right and wrong, and they lack the ability to "empathize" with others.
A fourth-grade "bear child", in order to verify whether the pregnant woman will miscarry after being knocked down, deliberately pushed the pregnant woman. He was completely unaware that this was wrong, nor did he consider what serious consequences it would have.
For him, he is just out of curiosity, for fun, which is not "evil".
And "miscarriage" in his understanding is nothing more than the pool of red blood that slowly expands under the body of the fallen pregnant woman in the TV series.
Some time ago, the "bear child pushing pregnant women" incident caused heated discussion
Therefore, in the face of children born as pure as white paper, parents should take responsibility and guide their children to grow up in the direction of "goodness".
It's not just about telling them what's right and what's wrong, it's also about getting them to understand why as much as possible.
Excerpt from Chen Jie, Zhou Ping. A study on children's empathy ability and parent-child relationship[J].Early Childhood Education,2015.2:16-17.
Children lack the ability to empathize with others at a young age
Parents guide education correctly
Only in this way can we reduce the soil that creates "bad boys"
In the day and night with their children, careful parents are more likely to notice the words and deeds of their children's daily lives.
Even juvenile murderers who are considered "evil children" are not born with the most evil people.
These abusive children may not be aware of the consequences of their evil deeds, but they lack the capacity to empathize with their victims.
This ability to empathize directly determines the establishment of the child's concept of right and wrong. This requires parents to actively guide their children at an early age.
In the clichéd "bear child" problem, parents always take "the child is still young, don't worry about him" to excuse their children's mistakes.
However, if the follow-up education cannot be followed up in time, today's small fights and small troubles may also evolve into eye-popping evil deeds in the future, and today's naughty bear children may also transform into "evil children" who create tragedies.
A casual search of news about bear children can get a lot of results, many of which have a lot to do with poor parental supervision.
The education and care of parents plays an extremely important role in the growth of a child.
Weibo @ Ono Meizi learned to spit on a small story that went viral on Twitter in Japan:
A family of three was shopping at the grocery store, and the five-year-old girl had been clamoring for a necklace. The mother tried to stop, but the child still threw a lot of energy.
And her parents did not shirk saying that "these things are too early for children to buy", nor did they easily promise "if you want to buy them, I will buy them for you", but patiently reasoned with the little girl:
"Mom and Dad have what they want, and they work hard to earn money to buy. Baby, you always have to buy new toys, but after two days you don't cherish them.
I don't want you to treat this necklace like this, so if you really want to, help your mother work every day, take pocket money and buy it yourself. ”
This is an exemplary parent's approach to education, choosing to be reasonable and induce the child to realize that what they did before was wrong between the two extreme ways of spoiling the child and rejecting it rudely.
Not only that, but parents also provide a good way to solve problems and guide their children to think about similar things in the future.
"A young sister in Japan who runs a grocery store at home, today met a family of three to buy things, and the little daughter sprinkled Lai to buy and buy... After reading it, I think it is an ideal pair of parents." @Ono girl learns to complain
When some of the child's wrong behavior is discovered, the parents will be correctly educated and guided in time, and the probability can be corrected as soon as possible and the correct concept of right and wrong can be established.
The younger the child, the easier it is to correct it. On the other hand, if children who lack a sense of right and wrong are allowed to act arbitrarily, the cost of correction and education will be much greater after becoming "evil children".
Since you have chosen to bring your child into this world, please take the corresponding responsibility and stop turning the originally lovely angel into a cruel demon.
