Infomation in this entry is neither correct nor complete. Please be alert, the Chinese wikipedia was already occupied successfully by the PRC government. The Chinese version of many entries in wikipedia was "protected" to reflect false information from the PRC government. I suggest wikipedia to investigate the misconducts of the Chinese super users.
I undid your change. Footnotes are not for editorial comments. Readers may evaluate the veracity of sources for themselves. I wrote this article based on Western mainstream media sources, which are cited in the article. What happens in the Chinese Wikipedia is of no concern to us in the English Wikipedia.

Yang was denied a fair trial, so the title "murderer" is nor applicable legally.
He could have killed the police by accident.
The policemen may have been killed by someone else and the blame was put on him wrongly.
So I propose to remove "muderer" from the title. Arilang talk
Well, he was sentenced for murder, and readers may evaluate for themselves the merits of his conviction. But in the interest of better disambiguation from King Yang Jia, I've implemented this. Sandstein 20:03, 5 April 2009 (UTC)[reply]
