Editing Praetor Lupu (section)

== Criminal career ==
Lupu entered Porno Bucharest in 2008, the year Marku founded the department within the Bucharest Butchers.<ref name="pob-history"/> He carried out his first execution in 2010, at the assigned age of sixteen. On 21 April 2012, his ceremonial eighteenth birthday, Marku gave him a Luger and appointed him head of internal purges and commander of the Wolf Pit. Lupu accepted the pistol with a nod and left without speaking.

Seven older executioners resisted his appointment by refusing orders and delaying executions. After Marku warned that he would intervene unless Lupu ended the resistance, Lupu summoned all seven to the Wolf Pit the following day and ordered them to submit or be killed. Four accepted his authority, while three continued to defy him. Lupu strangled the first and killed the second by striking the man's head against the concrete floor. When the third tried to escape, Lupu caught him at the door and fatally stabbed him in the throat. He then asked the survivors, "Mai are cineva probleme?" ("Does anyone else have a problem?"). The four surviving executioners did not challenge his authority again.

Later in 2012, Lupu sought permission to establish his own unit because the existing disposal arrangements left bodies and evidence unsecured. With Marku's approval, he recruited seven men for the Hyena Crew and trained them himself, retaining sole command. The crew carried out abductions and disposed of remains in lime pits in [[Ilfov County]], while its members also destroyed hard drives recovered after purges. Lupu chose the name because he associated hyenas with consuming everything and leaving nothing behind.

Lupu obeyed Marku without disagreement and committed rape and murder in his service. He is estimated to have raped more than 200 people as an adult. From 2015 to 2025, he held three adult women captive in his basement, where he subjected them to repeated sexual violence and forced pregnancies. He killed an unknown number of their infants in rituals associated with Glöbberism. In 2018, he fatally injured a 23-year-old woman during a prolonged sexual assault while under the influence of drugs.

On 9 August 2020, Marku sent Lupu to [[Shenzhen]] to kill [[Liu Weimin]]. Lupu found Liu picnicking with his family in a park and shot him in the back of the head. He also shot Liu's son and mother before abducting Liu's daughter and taking her to Marku's house in Shenzhen.

The [[Fish Collective]] found and freed the three women Lupu had held captive in 2025, after Marku's death.
