Lü Debin (Chinese: 吕德彬; May 1953 – 17 October 2005) was a Chinese politician and academic, who served as vice governor of Henan Province. In 2005, he was executed for murdering his wife. At the time, it was reported that Lü was the highest-ranking official charged with homicide since the establishment of the People's Republic of China.
Born to a poor family in Yinu Village, Dama Township, Yanling County, Henan Province, Lü became a village cadre as a teenager and was admitted to the Henan Agricultural College (now Henan Agricultural University) as a Worker-Peasant-Soldier student. He later attended Kansas State University, where he received master's and doctoral degrees.
