Chinese Couple Executed for Throwing Toddlers from High-Rise Balcony

A Chinese father and his mistress were executed after being found guilty of throwing his two children to their deaths from a high-rise apartment window in 2020. The father and his mistress saw the children as an obstacle to their relationship and staged the incident as an "accidental" fall. The Supreme People’s Court upheld the death penalty, ruling the motive for the killings as despicable and deserving of severe punishment.
