Chinese teen starves mother to death in fury at brutal Internet addiction boot camp

A 16-year-old Chinese girl starved her mother to death after tying her to a chair for a week, in fury at being sent to an Internet addiction treatment center where she was beaten and mistreated, Chinese media reported.

Treatment centers aimed at curing teens of Internet addiction or other behavioral problems have become  popular in China, but many are poorly regulated, military-style "boot camps," where corporal punishment is common, media reports say. They have become increasingly controversial since a series of scandals broke in recent years.

The girl from northern Heilongjiang province killed her mother Friday, according to Thepaper.cn. She had previously stabbed her father with a knife after a dispute. He was hospitalized.

The girl's parents had become increasingly concerned about her behavior after she dropped out of school. On the suggestion of an aunt, they decided to send their daughter to the camp, which claims to have cured 7,000 children of Internet addiction in the past two decades.

In February, the girl was forcibly taken away by two strange men in a car and driven to the camp in faraway Shandong province, only escaping four months later, the paper reported. In an online journal, she later complained that trainers had beaten students for no reason and ordered those who did not behave to eat in front of the pit latrine.

In a journal post published on Aug. 25, she wrote:  "When you mentioned it to your relatives, they all said: 'Isn't it all in the past? We love you, you should forget all those things.'"

The post went on: "I will use their money to practice boxing and martial arts, and ambush them later. I will make them disabled, if not die."

The girl shot photographs and video of her mother tied up in the chair, demanding thousands of dollars from her aunt to release her, ostensibly so she could go to a physics school in the city of Harbin. The money was sent, but by then the girl discovered her mother was already dying. She called an ambulance, but it arrived too late to save her mother.
