Killed Uncle Who Raised Me for 28 Years... "I Don't Know Him," Rambling Nonsense

History of Past Mental Illness Diagnosis

The nephew who killed his uncle, with whom he had lived for decades, has been detained and prosecuted.

On the 28th, the Criminal Division 3 of Suwon District Prosecutors' Office (Chief Prosecutor Jeong Hwajun) announced that Mr. A (in his 60s) was detained and prosecuted on charges of murder. Additionally, based on the results of a psychiatric evaluation indicating the risk of reoffending and diminished mental capacity, a request was made for treatment custody and the attachment of an electronic monitoring device for Mr. A.

Minister of Justice Cho Kuk's fifth cousin, a key figure in the 'private equity fund suspicion,' has had an arrest warrant requested by the prosecution, and there are expectations that Professor Jung Kyung-shim, Cho's wife, will soon be summoned.

Mr. A is accused of killing his uncle, Mr. B (in his 70s), with a weapon at a residence in Yeongtong-gu, Suwon-si, Gyeonggi Province, between late January and early February. It was found that he wrapped the body in a blanket and left it on the veranda of the residence for about a week.

The police responded on the afternoon of the 7th of last month after receiving a report from Mr. B’s son stating, "I can hear the ringtone of a cellphone inside the house, but my father is not answering." They forcibly opened the locked door and discovered Mr. B’s body inside.

Investigations revealed that Mr. A had lived together with Mr. B in a rental house under Mr. B’s name for 28 years. After Mr. B’s parents passed away, he had been taking care of his nephew Mr. A, who had no steady job.

Mr. A, who had previously been diagnosed with a mental illness, reportedly gave incoherent statements during the police investigation, including claiming that Mr. B was a "stranger" to him.
