Shi Yuejun: 14,000 People Hunting One Man Across China | Crime Documentary

Описание: In late September 2006, the rural villages of Jilin Province in northeastern China became the scene of one of the most horrifying crime sprees in the nation's history. Over the course of just six days, a single man with a knife would leave 12 people dead and 6 others severely injured, sending shockwaves through the entire country.
​
Shi Yuejun was not your typical criminal. At 36 years old, he worked as a butcher and livestock slaughterer in Liuhe County, a quiet agricultural region in Tonghua City. Standing at 1.72 meters tall, Shi possessed professional knife skills honed through years of working with meat and animals. But when business disputes with local residents turned bitter, those same skills would be turned against human victims with devastating efficiency.
​
Between September 24 and 29, 2006, Shi embarked on a calculated rampage of revenge. He didn't choose his victims randomly—each target had a connection to conflicts related to his butchering business. Armed only with his butcher's knife, he moved through small villages and remote farmhouses, attacking entire families with brutal precision . Men, women, and children all fell victim to his blade as he methodically eliminated anyone he held responsible for his grievances.
​
The scale and speed of the killings triggered a massive response from Chinese authorities. The Ministry of Public Security issued a Class-A warrant—the highest level of nationwide alert—and mobilized over 14,000 personnel for the manhunt. This unprecedented operation included more than 12,000 militia members, military units, and local volunteers, along with 2,000 police officers who scoured the mountainous terrain of southeastern Jilin Province.
​
For six terrifying days, Shi Yuejun remained one step ahead of his pursuers. He used his knowledge of the rural landscape to his advantage, hiding in dense cornfields and navigating the forested mountains of the Changbai region. While 14,000 people hunted him, the death toll continued to climb, and panic spread through local communities as residents feared they might be next.

On September 29, 2006, the manhunt reached its climax when police finally cornered Shi in the mountains. His capture brought relief to a terrified population, but the horror of his crimes was far from over . The legal proceedings moved with extraordinary speed—on November 25, 2006, just two months after his arrest, Shi Yuejun was sentenced to death. He admitted to all charges but rejected the label of "demon killer" that the media had given him.
​
On December 20, 2006, at approximately 10:00 AM, Shi Yuejun was executed by firing squad on a hill near the funeral home in Liuhe County. Local residents gathered to witness the execution, and when the shots rang out, collective relief swept through the crowd. The Jilin Butcher's reign of terror had finally ended .
​
This documentary examines the complete timeline of Shi Yuejun's crimes, the unprecedented manhunt that brought him to justice, and the chilling psychology of a man who transformed professional butchering skills into instruments of mass murder. Through verified sources and detailed investigation, we reveal the true story of six days that shocked China and left 18 families forever changed.
