Here we still have, someone who’d, pleaded, INSANE! Law and Disorder, murder charges, off of the Front Page Sections, translated…
The twenty-year-old male, Lin two years ago, used the gazebo in the Kaohsiung Cultural Center, had a physical altercation with the elderly man in his eighties, Fu, was fined by the police, and he’d felt upset, a little over a month later, he’d gone to the gazebo, and, poured the sulfuric acid onto the elderly man, the elderly died, suffering from severe burns; the first trial found Lin guilty, sentenced him to life, the High Subsidiary Courts in Kaohsiung considered that Lin had been diagnosed with mental illness of depression, and others, and considered that he’d, paid the family of the elderly over two million dollars N.T., yesterday, the courts changed his sentence to fifteen years. This can still be appealed.
“We shall never settle with him!”, the son of the deceased elderly person stated, as he learned of the new verdict, believed that fifteen years was too lenient; he said that the families received over $2.35 million N.T.s in civil court, and that didn’t mean, that they were, willing to, settle with the man who’d, murdered their father, and, as the verdict had been mailed to them, they will read through the papers thoroughly, “to understand why it was that the courts spoke on behalf of the murderer”, and they’re thinking about, appealing.
When Lin committed the murder, he was only eighteen, just passed his entrance exam, and gotten accepted to Kaohsiung Medical University; the verdict pointed out, that on the morning of July 7th, Lin was practicing the fire dance in the gazebo, and the eighty-year-old elderly, Fu chased him off, they two started engaging, later, Lin received the fines of $3,000N.T. from the police department; on the morning of August 20th of the same year, Lin went again to the gazebo, with a tazer, he’d, attacked the elderly from the back, then, poured sulfuric acid onto the man, there were, thirty-five percent surface burns on Lin, he was rushed to the hospitals, where he’d, died.
Back then, the sulfuric acid Lin poured on the elderly, had gotten onto his foot, he’d gone to the restrooms, washed it off, and, went to the hospital on his own, on September 5th of the same year, Lin was arrested by the police. The first trial found Lin was clinically depressed, and other psychological disorders, but the psyche evaluation found no proof of diminished capacity, that it didn’t, qualify him for a reduced sentence.
The second trial believed, that Lin had been bullied long-term, which caused his thought processes to be too rigid, and paranoid, he’d shown signs of long-term depression, borderline personality disorder, that although as he’d murdered the elderly man, he’d not shown a diminished capacity for his own behaviors, but, there was the trigger for why he’d behaved, in such a violent method.
The district attorneys appealed for the death penalty, and, Lin’s families appealed, that injuries causing death does NOT qualify as murder, which the Collectivist Courts had overturned on both, but, considering the reason for the offense, the way the murder had, occurred, and how he’d already, paid $2.35 million N.T.’s to the families, and he’d carried a good attitude, he received a reduced sentence.
And so, because you have a MENTAL condition, and under the circumstance, you’d, murdered someone, so the courts gave you, a reduced sentence, considering how you’d carried a good attitude after you’d, murdered the elderly man, and you’d, paid his family the money too? How’s that justice, huh? A man is DEAD!!!
