It is understood that the deceased is a 69-year-old woman, her 30-year-old second daughter (Chen) and 3-year-old grandson. Daughter Chen divorced after giving birth to a child earlier, and later registered her marriage with a young man Zhang, and moved to the house where the crime occurred more than a year ago and lived with her mother. Chen and Zhang have no fixed occupations, and Chen's mother is responsible for taking care of her grandson and sleeping in the same room on weekdays, and the husband and wife sleep in the other room.
It is reported that Zhang, 24 years old, has a history of fraud and owes a large amount of debts, and was once listed as a warning account for selling his account to a fraud syndicate. He once borrowed NT$400,000 (about 90,000 yuan) from his mother-in-law and did not repay it, and the two sides had a dispute because of this. After obtaining the surveillance video of the building where the crime occurred, the police pointed out that Zhang left his residence on May 6 and left in a taxi.
Zhang confessed to killing the three after arriving at the case, and he confessed that on the morning of May 1, because of a quarrel with his wife, he impulsively strangled his wife to death with his bare hands. In the early morning of the next day, he had a dispute with his mother-in-law over debts, strangled his mother-in-law in anger, and killed the mother and daughter in a row.
Zhang killed 3 people in a row, and even stayed at home with the corpse for 3 days as if nothing happened, thinking that the corpse was concentrated in the bedroom, and there was no smell. At noon on May 5, he even invited someone to his home to remove the dead fish in the stinky fish tank.
At noon on May 6, Zhang took his wife's NT$100,000 and Pomeranian "glutinous rice" at home, and took a taxi to Banqiao Station to escape to Taichung by high-speed rail. On the morning of the 12th, the police broke into the door with a warrant and seized the mobile phone of his wife, who had been taken away.
Zhang didn't forget the dog he took away when he fled,
But instead it has become the key to the police solving the case.
The police revealed that it was quite difficult to find someone by surveillance, but the suspect was holding a yellow puppy while leaving his home to take a ride at Banqiao Station, which was quite conspicuous.
Police said the dog was kept by the 69-year-old who was killed, the suspect's mother-in-law. After the suspect was caught, the dog was brought back by his eldest daughter.
The police said that although the man surnamed Zhang confessed to strangling three people, the prosecution examined the three swollen and decomposed bodies on the morning of the 12th, and found no external injuries, and there were no strangulation marks on the neck, so it was impossible to determine the cause of death. There is a discrepancy between the statement of the man surnamed Zhang and the preliminary results of the prosecution, and it will not be further confirmed until the autopsy is released and the report is released. Further investigation is ongoing.
