Man pleads guilty to Oklahoma marijuana farm ‘executions’ that killed 4

Court records show Chen Wu, who is also referred to as Wu Chen in some records, entered the plea Friday, Feb. 9, for four counts of first-degree murder — deliberate intent and assault and battery with a deadly weapon. The Kingfisher Times & Free Press reports a judge sentenced Wu to life in prison without the possibility of parole for murder and two years for assault and battery. The sentences will be served concurrently. Court documents identified the victims as Quirong Lin, Chen He Chun, Chen He Qiang, and Fang Hui Lee.

The sheriff’s office called in the Oklahoma State Bureau of Investigation (OSBI) for assistance, and they took over the case. An OSBI statement said the suspect was inside the building on the farm “for a significant amount of time before the executions began.”
