It was also discovered that the man had received 3.2 million won (approximately 330,000 yen) in living expenses each month from his ex-wife and son.
According to the indictment received by News1 on the 25th from the office of National Assemblyman Joo Jin-woo of the People's Power Party, suspect A (62) had been involved in the crimes of the National Assembly from August 2021 to 2023.
For about two years until September, he had received 3.2 million won each each month from his ex-wife and his deceased son, totaling 6.4 million won (about 670,000 yen) in living expenses.
After divorcing his ex-wife in 2015, Suspect A did not have a fixed job and received 3.2 million won a month from his ex-wife and son.
Most of the money was used for entertainment and living expenses. After his ex-wife found out that he had received duplicate living expenses, she stopped providing the living expenses on November 15, 2023.
Despite this, suspect A did not engage in any economic activity and was reported to have been receiving living expenses from his sister since January last year.
Furthermore, Suspect A deceived himself into believing that his ex-wife would continue to provide financial support, and
He began to fall into delusions that he had cut off financial support after he became an elderly teenager, leaving him in a situation where he had no financial support. He also felt that his ex-wife and son had encouraged him to only play the role of a father, but in reality, he had been left to live alone and isolated.
He believed that the suspect had set up a knife on his healthy adult son, and that it would be difficult to achieve his goal with a knife. However, in August last year, he saw a video on YouTube related to a homemade gun.
Then he remembered that he had some shotgun bullets in the warehouse that he had bought 20 years ago. On July 20th, the day of the incident, he told his son, who was throwing him a birthday party, that he was going to the convenience store.
Suspect A loaded a gun with live ammunition in a public parking lot and returned to his son's house. He rang the doorbell and fired a shot at his son when he came out. The son leaned against the wall and begged for help, but
He then shot Nono again in the right chest. The circumstances surrounding the attempted murder of four people, including his wife, two grandchildren, and a foreign tutor, were also revealed. Suspect A was shot while the foreign tutor was fleeing through the front door.
He also pushed hard against the door to the room where his daughter-in-law and grandson had fled, using his strength to keep the door from closing, instilling fear in them.
Suspect A, who was not able to get his way, immediately fled and went to Seoul.
He was arrested in Seocho-gu. Police investigation revealed that suspect A had 15 flammable items, including plastic bottles filled with paint thinner, detergent, and milk bottles, at his home in Dobong-gu, Seoul.
He confessed to having installed the pawnbroker and ignition device in order to burn down the belongings of his ex-wife and son that were left in the house.
Suspect A is currently facing an additional charge of attempted murder, and the issue at stake is whether he will admit to this in court.
Suspect A is said to have denied the charges of attempted murder of other family members, saying that he "only tried to kill his son."
In addition, whether Suspect A's motive for committing the crime was due to financial support or delusions may also have an impact on the sentence.
It is expected to have an impact.
