How those earlier days can shape someone’s personality, how childhood traumas are, never forgotten, from the Front Page Sections, translated…
As a woman from Hsinbei City was taking her two-year-old home, they’d bumped into two robbers, Yeh and Huang who robbed them with a knife, and it’d affected the young boy, every time he’d passed by the place where he and his mother were robbed, he’d stated, “Bad Guy!”; the Shihlin D.A.’s office indicted Huang and Yeh based off of a serious robbery, and asked the courts to enforce the sentences, the woman told, that she feared, that the events of her being robbed had, become a big shadow inside her son’s mind.
The indictment pointed out, that Yeh (age thirty) has priors in drugs, theft, along with multiple offenses, this March, he was released from his jail sentence for a drug possession, couldn’t find a stable job, he’d rode with the nineteen-year-old, Huang from his hometown, and started committing the crimes.
Last month on the third, at seven in the evening, Huang rode his older sister’s motorcycle, covered up the license plate with black duct tape, with a watermelon knife, went to Danshui, to find his targets. They’d first cased out the man, Chou who was on the phones by the side of the road, Yeh started waving the watermelon knife, and the victim had thought, that he was looking for a payback, that he was mistaken.
Yeh stated, “I’m on the run from the laws, I need the money.”, because Chou was threatened, he didn’t dare fight back, handed the nine hundred dollars he had. Later on, Chou asked, “Can you give me a hundred bucks for food?”, Yeh looked Chou over, said, “We both had it hard”, and returned the man he robbed, a hundred dollars.
Later on, Yeh and Huang saw a woman with a young child at Hsin-Chun Street, the two of them followed the mother and child all the way, to an unpopulated area, Yeh flashed his knife to rob the woman. The woman accused, that Yeh was standing next to her son, waving the knife, she didn’t dare say no, handed her wallet to him; she’d once begged him, “Just take the money, and hand me back my wallet”, but Yeh refused. The police chased the leads for three days, and caught him.
This is considered traumatic for the young child who watched his mother get threatened and robbed, and that, is why, he’d developed this distrust toward strangers, and, it will take the child, a VERY long time, to regain the trust he’d lost in the world again, or, maybe, he may never be able to, regain that trust back again………
