According to Chinese local media, China Daily, the Shanghai resident Zhu Xiaodong, who is only 30, strangled his wife Yang Liping, who was also 30, to death at their home.
The incident occurred after a series of quarrels in their Shanghai Hongkou District home in late 2017.
After he had strangled her, he then wrapped her body in a bed sheet, and then stuffed her into a freezer on his balcony for 105 days.

During the three months that his wife’s body remained in the freezer, Zhu used her money to travel and have affairs with various other women, according to The New Paper.
“He spent lavishly without restraint and showed no signs of remorse,” the court reported.
Zhu also took over her social media accounts to prevent suspicion from arising. He pretended to be his wife while responding to messages from friends and family.

It was only three months later that he decided to turn himself in. Zhu turned himself in to local authorities after his father-in-law invited the couple to his birthday dinner on the evening of Feb 1, 2018.
After Zhu’s arrest, the victim’s family called for premeditated murder, citing the fact that the freezer was bought two months before the murder.
Zhu denies that, claiming that the freezer was bought to store meat for his reptile pets. The court sentenced Zhu to death last Wednesday, August 22, 2018.
