Yu Huaying's child abduction and trafficking case
in the Guiyang Intermediate People's Court
The first instance of the retrial was opened
Yang Niuhua, who was abducted and trafficked by Yu Huaying, came to the court to participate in the trial. She hopes that Yu Huaying will be severely punished and the death sentence will be upheld, so that traffickers will not dare to abduct and sell children again. "When I think of a broken family and a parent who died with hatred, can I not hate it?"

Details of the case: Using the identity of a neighbor to deceive trust, and using "buying a sweater stick" as a bait
In the early winter of 1995, 5-year-old Yang Niuhua and her sister Yang Sangying followed their parents from their hometown to Guiyang. Soon after, Yu Huaying moved next door, and she said that her daughter was about the same age as Niuhua, so she often came to visit the door. The sisters were defenseless against the neighbor.
One day, Yu Huaying took "buying a string for knitting sweaters" as a temptation and led Yang Niuhua out of the house. In this way, "Yang Niuhua" has since become "Li Suyan", and was abducted and trafficked by Yu Huaying from Guizhou to Hebei, thousands of miles away. It wasn't until she was 31 years old that she found her way home.
But when she really got home, the reality made her so painful that she couldn't breathe: her 39-year-old father Yang Xinmin died depressed, and her 32-year-old mother Xiong Mianyi also went with a broken heart. Her sister, Sang Ying, became an orphan when she was 11 years old.
Now, the family's old house has also collapsed, and the family of four can no longer be reunited. That feeling, Yang Niuhua described as "I can't swallow it in one breath, I can't lie down, I can't sit down."

Yang Niuhua vowed to "seek justice" in front of her parents' graves, and she actively assisted the police in collecting clues and personally sent human trafficker Yu Huaying to court.
In a frenzy! The first child sold by Yu Huaying turned out to be her own son
On September 18, 2023, the Guiyang Intermediate People's Court convicted Yu Huaying of child abduction and trafficking in the first instance, the circumstances were particularly serious and the impact was particularly bad, and Yu Huaying was sentenced to death and deprived of political rights for life in the first instance.
On November 28, 2023, the case was heard in the second instance of the Guizhou Provincial High People's Court.
On January 8, 2024, the Guizhou Provincial High People's Court made a second-instance ruling on Yu Huaying's child abduction and trafficking case and remanded it for retrial. The court held that the original judgment omitted the facts of the original trial defendant Yu Huaying's other crimes of abducting and trafficking children, and some of the facts were unclear, and that a retrial should be made in order to clarify all the facts of the appellant Yu Huaying's crimes.
The court's reference to the omission of the original verdict refers to the increase in the number of children suspected of abduction and trafficking by Yu Huaying from 11 to 17. During the trial, Yu Huaying's criminal process of abducting and trafficking children was disclosed in detail. Unbelievably, the first child sold by Yu Huaying turned out to be her biological son.
It is reported that the verdict in this case will be announced at a later date.
For thousands of families

High-risk places where children can get lost
mall
Many parents tend to ignore their children when trying on clothes or buying goods, and children are easy to leave the parents' sight at this time.
supermarket
Large supermarkets have many shelves spaced, children are not easy to distinguish, they can't see each other, and children are easy to get lost at this time.
Bus station, train station
The station has a large flow of people, and parents tend to neglect to take care of their children when they are in a hurry or in a hurry, which makes traffickers have an opportunity.
Parks, playgrounds
There is a lot of traffic in the playground and many games, so children are easily distracted and run around.
A common scam by traffickers
Pretending to be an acquaintance
Scammers can usually call out the child's name. They will tell their child that they have been asked by the child's family to take the child home or to a certain place, and that they have obtained permission from the teacher or parent. Use such an "authoritative temptation" to deceive your child's trust.
Material inducements
Delicious sweets, tempting snacks, novelty toys, playground attractions...... Children tend to lose their guard against these temptations.
On July 19, 1994, in Duyun City, Guizhou Province, Chen Binglian set up a stall on Baiziqiao to do business, because no one was at home, her 11-year-old eldest son Xiao Zhengtao took his 5-year-old brother Xiao Zhengjun to play near Baiziqiao, when three strangers suddenly appeared and enthusiastically handed the child popsicles. Within a few minutes, Chen Binglian's youngest son was abducted by Yu Huaying with a popsicle.
Theft of children
Criminals will abduct children when parents are not strictly guarded, and some people will snatch children directly from the back seat of the car or from the arms of parents.
Take advantage of kindness
Take advantage of the child's innocence and kindness, and take measures such as letting them lead the way. For example, "Kid, do you know how to get to such and such a place?" If the child answers that he knows, the criminals will take the child to take him.
Coercion and intimidation
By intimidating and intimidating the child, the child is forced to comply.
Precautions for preventing abduction
In the parent's line of sight
When parents take their children out, do not forget to observe their children's movements while only enjoying the scenery and taking pictures, and should keep their children in their sight at any time, and if necessary, please place a small note or information card with family contact information on their bodies.
Don't be gullible with strangers
Tell your child not to talk to strangers, not to eat food handed by strangers, not to tell strangers about their homes, and to be wary of contact with strangers.
There are tricks at home alone
Don't open the door to strangers, and don't reveal to strangers that you are home alone. Teach your child to call their parents or 110 for help in case of emergency.
Keep family information in mind
Teach children to remember their city, neighborhood, house number, parents' name, phone number, workplace, etc., so that they can contact their family in time in case of accidents.
Parents should be informed of their whereabouts in a timely manner
Make an agreement with your child in advance, for example, you must not go with others without parental notice, go to the same school or play outside with your classmates, and inform your parents of your whereabouts in time.
The right people to turn to are important!
On or near campus – ask your teacher for help
Outdoors – Ask the police for help
Public – Ask for help from a security guard
Shopping malls, playgrounds – ask the staff for help
Miscellaneous – Seek help from the service site
In fact, there is much more to the people who ask for help, and parents need to teach their children to be "flexible". On July 30, a lost girl in Quzhou, Zhejiang Province successfully used an ATM machine to save herself.
Today, most banks have an emergency button in their self-service branches, and above the "emergency call" button, there is also a red emergency alarm button.

Call the police immediately
You do not need to wait 24 hours after the child goes missing, please call the police on 110 immediately, tell the child's age, physical characteristics, clothing, etc., and provide a recent bareheaded photo of the child.
Radio search
If there is a radio at the place of the incident, the person can be searched for with the help of the broadcast. Be sure to make clear the child's characteristics and provide the contact details of the parents when broadcasting.
Adopt the "Ten People Four Chase Method"
There is one person in each of the 4 directions of the southeast, northwest and northwest, within 2 kilometers, looking along the main road; 4 people went to the nearby train station and bus station to look for it to prevent the child from being taken to other cities; 1 person called the police; One person stayed where he was or stayed at home to wait.
Effective use of the Ministry of Public Security's "reunion" system
The system was developed by the Ministry of Public Security to meet the requirements of the era of "Internet + anti-abduction", once the information on the disappearance of a child is released, the platform can assist the public security organs to push the information on the disappearance of the child to a certain area around the place of disappearance through new media and mobile application terminals as soon as possible, so that more people can accurately obtain relevant information, provide clues in a timely manner, and assist the public security organs to solve the case as soon as possible.

Parents please make sure the child
Be in your own line of sight
Teach your child not to be gullible about others
