u/Heptacat-1985 — 11 days ago

This case has always fascinated me looking up female mass murderers. None of the posts I’ve looked at had in-depth detail, but I was able to find more information on it. Hope its okay.

This is the complete case of Dong Yangling, The Fuzhuo Factory Arsonist. She is one of the world’s worst mass murderers outside of terrorism and war. One of the most notable aspects is shes a woman. The crime takes place in Fuzhuo, China, a province of Fuijan.

She was born in 1974, in the Chengxiang, a District of Fuijan, China. Her family were merchants, but weren’t able to make enough money from it. Because of it Dong had to drop of Elementary School due to the family’s financial problems to pay for her tuition. Do to being short on money, they would basically take advantage of their friends in return for a small amount of money that would be lost shortly after. The family was selfish and greedy, often alienating their friends because of it. The Yangling’s didn’t mind since they took pleasure in their selfishness. Dong was influenced by her parents, selfishness and greed and took it to heart. Over time, she also developed the habit of being greedy and being selfish. For example, when she went to a relative's house, she would always ask for money. When she brought something home, her relatives thought she was just a child, so they didn't say anything. Meaning they just dismissed her behavior since she was a child and didnt correct it. Dong’s parents did not criticize her behavior, but actually praised the destructive act.

Over time, Dong would try to apply for Jobs, only to be fired afterwards, mainly because of her greed.

 “After growing up, because of this bad habit, I changed many jobs. Because of my dishonesty, no boss wanted such an employee, so I was always fired.” - Dong Yangling. 

 Her parents soon paid one of their relatives to find a job for Dong, leading her to work at the Fuzhuo Textile Factory, as a yarn spinner. Surprisingly, Dong loved her job at first and was a very hard worker. Though her bad habits would surface eventually. She was also unable to make much friends there due to her domineering and unreasonable personality. Dong started taking small scraps of fabric and other textiles at work, and began selling them with the help of her mother. Dong’s mother praised her daughter for her thievery as Mrs. Yangling processed the scraps for sale. Dong became more and more sly and arrogant with her crime. She would then start to bring a large bag to work every day, and would bring home a large amount of cotton at night. Dong would even sabotage her own work, deliberately spinning the yarn the wrong way, (large amounts) so it could be scrapped and she would be able to sell it. This happened very often, leading to the amount of workers need for the job to drop, due to the amount of product being scrapped. This made the workers furious and unhappy because of her behavior. Due to this, many reported her hoping she’d straighten out. The director apparently knew about this and many times he let her off scot free. There were many factors to this: 1, she was a relative of one of the employees (assuming higher up if she got of scot free), 2, because she was a teen, and 3, because she was a lower wage worker and the others were higher wage.

However one faithful day (assuming December 12) a large shipment of acrylic yarn was missing, making the director shocked. He found out it was Dong who stole it and was much more confrontational about it.

 “You usually just take some scraps, but this is a shipment that is going to be sent out, it is very important, please return the package of acrylic yarn quickly.” - The Director

 Dong took this the wrong way, and thought he was intimidating her, so Dong  relied on the power of her distant relatives and did not pay attention to the factory director at all. She waved her hands indifferently and said that it was impossible to get it back because it had been sold. He finally had enough of Dong and immediately fired her. Dong was seething from this. She felt like she didn’t anything wrong and that the director had no right to fire her. This bitter resentment began the point of no return for Dong Yangling.

The Fire

On the early morning of December 13, 1993, at 3:50 A:M, Dong Yangling quietly slipped into the factory with a pack of matches. She walked over to the warehouse where the cotton was before striking a match and throwing it on the cotton. She stood there for a few minutes watching the fire consume the cotton. It later spread and she escaped out of fear of dying in the fire. The fire soon spread throughout the factory around 4:15 A:M,  causing treacherous damage. An alarm was set off around 4:36 alerting firefighters to the scene. The fire was at its fiercest, as firefighters had to use water cannons to subdue the blaze. The fire started to subside around 6:30 A:M before being extinguished at 7:00 A:M. They were able to rescue 34 women from the factory with 8 of them injured. Sadly, 61 women died in the fire. They suffocated from the fumes from the burning textiles, as they slept in their dormitory. The damage and cost of the fire was about  3.036 Million Yuan about 500,000$ in U.S Money.

 It took about two days to investigate the cause of the fire as they ruled out electrical problems and cigarette butts. They were able to trace it to Dong Yangling, and arrested her on December 15. She didn’t confess to the crime at first, but as she was being tried on January 14, 1994, she immediately confessed, saying she did it on impulse and didn’t expect someone would die from it. She also said if they didn’t fire her, she wouldn’t have done it. Dong Yangling was soon sentenced to death. Her execution was swift as the police took her out from the courtroom and immediately shot and killed her. Her last words were “Unjust!”

Also some of them are the main perpetrator with the boyfriend being the accomplice. Unlike the previous list, only a few have mental illness (Guadalupe and Elizabeth). The rest have despicable reasons for their acts.

I want to split the articles for the 2019 UNCC Shooting so their can be a separate topic on Riley Howell Similar to Aaron Feis and Victoria Soto. Riley is notable for being a hero of a mass shooting in the time when mass shootings were at its worst, and having been honored in Star Wars lore.

This is the second of three attempted mass shootings to happen in the span of 2 weeks that was foiled by a civilian.

Riley was honored for his bravery and sacrificed being put in Star Wars lore as the Jedi “Ri-Lee Howell.”

On April 28th, 1996, at the time 29 year old Martin Byrant shot and killed 35 people -most being elderly - and wounded 23 people at Port Arthur, a tourist town in Australia. Bryant than stole a vehicle at the site's tollbooth and drove to a nearby service station where he killed a woman and abducted her partner. He continued to fire at passing vehicles before finally returning to Seascape with his hostage, who was then killed. He set fire to the property but was captured the following morning.

The Port Arthur Massacre is the deadliest mass shooiting in Australia.

Bryant pleaded guilty to the killings and received 35 life sentences without parole; his motives have been subject to debate. The massacre led to a reassessment of Australia's gun laws.

He is notable for being one of the many perpetrators of some of the worlds worst mass shootings to be alive, since Stephan Paddock, Gabriel Wortman, Thomas Hamilton, Mutsuo Toi, and Woo Bum Kon are dead.

The Port Arthur Massacre was the deadliest mass shooting Australia saw until the 2025 Bondi Beach Shootings that killed 15.

Rest In Peace to the lives lost.

This is a list of the oldest known mass shooters in America. The Demographic for many mass killers is usually 20-40 give or take. But these men are the rare exception. Some of their killings are known while others are forgotten to the passage of time.

In Order:

Samuel Cassidy - 57 - Perpetrator of the San Jose Railroad shooting in 2021. Killed 9 of his colleagues before committing suicide As the police were surrounding him.

Kurt Myers - 64 - On March 13, 2018, Kurt Myers set fire to his home before shooting two people at a barber shop and killing two at a car wash in Herkimer County. He was then killed by police after he shot their K-9.

Stephan Paddock - 64 - On October 1st, 2017, Stephan Paddock opened fire on a county music festival killing 60 people making it the worse mass shooting in the United States. He then committed suicide after his massacre.

Chun Li Zhao - 66 - On January 23, 2023, Chun Li went on a spree killing 4 people at one farm before killing 3 more at another farm. It occurred less than 2 days after Huu Can Trans Shooting spree. Chun Li is notable for being the only one alive on this list.

Anthony Polito - 67 - On December 6th 2023, seeking retribution and revenge , killed three people at the University of Nevada. The victims were not on the list of people he was going to kill was on his list. He was then subsequently killed by police after being in a shootout with them.

William Okie Bevins - 70 - This is an interesting one. He was at the time the oldest mass shooter in America before 2011. He was a former miner and from information I found killed at least 7 Men in a store in Printer, Kentucky back in October of 1981. He soon passed away in 1989. Apparently he was convicted of murder back in 1930.

Huu Can Tran - 72 - On January 21, 2023 in Monterey Park California, A disgruntled former patron of the Star Ballroom dance studio he used to frequent, shot and killed 11 people before committing suicide a day later after FBI trucks cornered his van.

Carey Hal Dyess - 73 - The Oldest Known Mass Shooter - On June 2, 2011, Carey Hal Dyess Shot and Killed his 5th Ex Wife, Her 3 friends and her divorce lawyer in Yuma County Arizona before killing himself in the outskirts of the town.

Its a curiosity that these men would kill in their old age. Its possibly a factor that they had nothing left to lose. Any other old killers I forgot?
