Real Cases of Evil People Suffering Retribution

Persecuting and killing innocent people who follow Truthfulness-Compassion-Forbearance cannot escape the justice of retribution. Please read the following cases of people doing evil who've suffered retribution.

(1) Anhua County 610 Office Manager Suffers Retribution

Anhua County 610 Office manager Chen Yongsheng closely followed Jiang Zemin's gang to persecute Falun Gong. Starting in 2001, Chen Yongsheng rampantly arrested practitioners and ransacked their homes. He also swindled practitioners' relatives into buying him meals that cost more than one thousand yuan each time, and bribing him. His subordinate killed practitioner Zhou Wuliang but still has not been charged. Dozens of practitioners were put into labor camps and sentenced to jail. More than one hundred practitioners were sent to brainwashing sessions, and their homes have been ransacked and belongings stolen. These people all suffered various degrees of persecution, mentally, physically, and economically. Practitioner Guo Xihua was arrested and taken to Baimalong Forced Labor Camp in Zhuzhou. Practitioner Chen Ruizhen and her father who is in his eighties also was arrested in April 2008.

Chen Yongsheng did many vicious things for which he suffered retribution. On November 3, 2001, fire broke out in his home. Chen's father was burned and most of the family's belongings were turned to ashes. He remained unrepentant and continued persecuting innocent people. In 2002, the clothing store that his wife opened caught on fire and suffered severe loss.

Chen Yongsheng got drunk in February 2002 when he returned home. He fell down the stairs and broke several ribs and legs bones. He was hospitalized for several months. He remained unrepentant and said he didn't believe in retribution.

His wife fought with him for most of 2003, because he was having an affair. In 2007, his wife was sent to a labor camp because of her gambling. In 2008, Chen Yongsheng resigned from the 610 Office. His twenty-year-old daughter suffered severe mental issues.

(2) Zhou Shubing from Anhua Police Department Hit by a Car--Now in a Vegetative State

In order to be promoted, Zhou Shubing from Anhua Police Department, closely followed Jiang Zemin and the CCP to persecute Falun Gong since the persecution began in July 1999. He was the one who beat practitioner Zhou Wuliang to death in 2001. He didn't stop there, and continued persecuting innocent people. Zhou Shubing was responsible for persecuting Falun Gong practitioners at that time. He prepared false materials that resulted in dozens of practitioners being sent to labor camps and jail.

What harms others will eventually come back to harm oneself. Rather than being promoted, Zhou Shubing was downgraded. As a result he was disgruntled and often got drunk and vented his anger. One day in April 2005, he was hit by a car after he had been drinking. He was only 42. He's been bedridden since the accident and can't take care of himself. He's now in a vegetative state and has to be taken care by his parents who are in their seventies.
