Li enacted the final step of his plan on May 5, 2021, throwing his wife overboard during a ferry trip from Dalian in northeastern China to Yantai. He carefully calculated the site from which to push the woman onto the sea, as it conveniently evaded the vessel’s 200 surveillance cameras.

Despite Li’s claims of her death being accidental, autopsy records showed bruises that pointed toward the woman struggling before the fall. The speed with which Li hurried to claim his wife’s death certificate also raised the police’s suspicion, with the man saying he needed the process to be sped up due to “local customs that required cremation.”
