Father of the victim

Huang Guoqiang, father of victim Huang Yang, does not accept the petition signed by Fudan University students and teachers. Huang Guoqiang, a middle school teacher, lives with his wife in Zigong, Sichuan province. He told local media that the proposal to let killer Lin Senhao take care of him and his wife in the future, as a replacement for Huang Yang, is a ruse to get the court to lift Lin's death penalty.

"I do not agree with the students who said Lin is not an extremely cruel person," Huang said. "If he is not cruel, why did he put so much poison in the drinking water? If he is not cruel, why didn't he stop my son from drinking the water? If he is not cruel, why didn't he tell the doctors what poisons he put in the water, while my son was groaning in pain on his sickbed?"
