Usually with these older cases the outcry would only come way after it was carried out. The poor lady suffered a lifetime only for it to end in a terrible outcome.
In a few more recent cases from the 2000s to 2010s, there have been a few cases of wives killing abusive husbands in self defense and having their sentences lightened (from heavy sentences reduced to 3-8 years) after their circumstances are reviewed and with some public outcry (easier access to information during recent times). The Yu Huan case from above is another example.
