the Shanghai No. 2 Intermediate People's Court, China, sentenced Shen Daming to death with a reprieve of two years for murder.
The Jiangsu Province native met his victim surnamed Liu in August 2004 through a matchmaking agency. Shen reportedly lied that he was a company manager engaged in the elevator business and that he was in urgent need of some money as his employee had been hurt in an accident. Liu sold her property and gave Shen 147,000 yuan (US$18,148) but said she wanted to visit the injured employee with Shen. Upon seeing that his lie was about to be revealed, Shen killed Liu and took the money.
