  Toy Titan Takes Life
Zhang Shuhong, head of a Chinese toy company, killed himself over the weekend.

Lee Der made 967,000 toys recalled earlier this month by Mattel Inc. because they were made with paint found to have excessive amounts of lead.

....The recall by El Segundo, Calif.-based Mattel came just two months after RC2 Corp., a New York company, recalled 1.5 million Chinese-made wooden railroad toys and set parts from its Thomas & Friends Wooden Railway product line because of lead paint...

Do you ever wonder if some of these shamed executives who are supposed to have killed themselves...didn't actually kill themselves? But were made examples of?

The Chinese are perfectly willing to execute them in public without due process, so no, they're not killing them surreptiously.
