Hailing from Changji, Li was admitted to the Beijing Institute of Technology in 1999, majoring in computer science. In the next semester, he began to work part-time. In the second year of his sophomore year, he dropped out of school and was arrested in 2003. He was shot on August 20, 2004.[1]

Li committed his first murder when he was 14, but did not commit another crime until 2002. In that year, he was raped by four men and decided to kill them for revenge, killing two others as well. Li's murder method was to cruelly cut off the victim's sexual organs. Expert analysis showed that he wasn't cared for during his childhood, he went down the murderous path.[2]

Youth

Since childhood, he was raised by grandmother in Shandong, and one day he was sent back to his parents in Xinjiang. His mother had been diagnosed with a mental illness, which made her lose her temper, lick things and beat Li at home. During this time, he was scared to be around his mother. After he began to attend high school, his mother's condition was stabilized, but his father began drinking alcohol excessively. Despite Li complaining about this, he was not beaten, but on several occasions his father picked up a kitchen knife and threatened his son.[3]
