Guy kills his wife using knife, stand her 70 times in front of his 2 and 5 year old kids. He was sentenced to 15 years, probably will be out in 8. Not only does he send a text to his in laws -who are now taking care of his kids- saying he will reunite the family by killing them too so they do not have to live with this incident, but also somehow managed to claim and get his wife’s laobao money, several million retirement fund, into his pocket before going in. Yes, they have the wife’s hard earned money to her killer. ---

This guy must have been some ninja or something. But then I imagine being on a ship with a crazy swinging his knife covered in blood, probably desperation would make the others jump ---

It’s not very likely, is it? And sailors will know that if you jump off a ship you’re probably going to die. Could have been mass panic I suppose. EDIT: The guy with the knife must have been Steven Seagal. ---

> [@BiggusDickus](#): > > That’s a weird story. One guy goes nuts with a knife and 23 other guys can’t deal with him? You don’t get into arguments with a Filipino. It ends up in a knife fight more often than you’d expect, and you have almost no chance of defending yourself in such cases. But yeah, you would think somebody on board would have security training and would be prepared for this sort of thing? People can go a bit nuts when they’re cooped up in a tin can for a while. I doubt we’ll ever find out, but I’m willing to bet the argument was over something completely trivial. ---

I think most of these fishermen were scrawny underfed humans who were not sailors like navy personnel would be The attacker with a knife might have been like Brutus big and tough And he may have knifed the first few who challenged him so nobody wanted to challenge him further They couldn’t find anything to use as a weapon and there was no concerted action The assailant didn’t put up much of a fight when the coast guard boarded the boat Faced with people with guns he knew the game Was over He shouldn’t ever be set free ---

Man you can kill a bunch of people with a knife if you have the element of surprise, and knife makes no sound so by the time people realize what’s up, a bunch of people are dead. Never underestimate the knife. [Previous page](https://tw.forumosa.com/t/crimes-in-taiwan-2021/203428.md?page=1) [Next page](https://tw.forumosa.com/t/crimes-in-taiwan-2021/203428.md?page=3)
