• 0:55
  Speaker 1: afternoon of December first, nineteen ninety nine, a middle aged
• 0:59
  Speaker 1: man named Lee was standing in the back office of
• 1:01
  Speaker 1: a small restaurant in Da Chung County, which is in
• 1:04
  Speaker 1: southwestern China, when he suddenly heard somebody yelling in the
• 1:07
  Speaker 1: seating area. They were screaming for the manager and that
• 1:10
  Speaker 1: was late, so he hurried out of the office.
• 1:13
  Speaker 2: To see what was going on.
• 1:14
  Speaker 1: When he rounded the corner into the seating area, Lee
• 1:17
  Speaker 1: immediately saw this customer sitting at a table with a
• 1:20
  Speaker 1: plate of food in front of him, and he was
• 1:22
  Speaker 1: slamming his fists against the table over and over again,
• 1:26
  Speaker 1: and he was screaming that his food tasted so disgusting
• 1:29
  Speaker 1: that even pigs wouldn't eat it. And hearing this, Lee
• 1:33
  Speaker 1: felt totally exhausted and overwhelmed because this was literally the
• 1:38
  Speaker 1: tenth time today that a customer of his had complained
• 1:42
  Speaker 1: about the food tasting bad. In fact, there had been
• 1:45
  Speaker 1: so many complaints back to back to back that Lee
• 1:48
  Speaker 1: hadn't even had time to speak to the chef and
• 1:50
  Speaker 1: figure out what was going on here. And so Lee
• 1:53
  Speaker 1: walked over to the customer's table and he bowed to
• 1:56
  Speaker 1: show respect, and then he said he was so sorry
• 1:58
  Speaker 1: for the inconvenience and told the man that his meal
• 2:01
  Speaker 1: was on the house. When the door slam shot behind him,
• 2:04
  Speaker 1: Lee kind of just looked around the restaurant and he
• 2:07
  Speaker 1: realized that his normally very busy restaurant was actually now
• 2:11
  Speaker 1: completely deserted, and so Lee was totally frustrated and he
• 2:15
  Speaker 1: just turned around. He marched to the back of the
• 2:17
  Speaker 1: restaurant and he flung open the door that led to
• 2:19
  Speaker 1: the kitchen, and right inside he saw the chef standing
• 2:22
  Speaker 1: at the counter cutting up some vegetables, and Lee, by
• 2:25
  Speaker 1: this point was just so mad and frankly so worried
• 2:29
  Speaker 1: about what was happening to his restaurant that when he
• 2:31
  Speaker 1: got in there, he just started yelling at the chef.
• 2:34
  Speaker 1: He told the chef that he better have a really
• 2:36
  Speaker 1: good explanation for why everything he cooked that day had
• 2:39
  Speaker 1: tasted so horrible, otherwise he was getting fired. But the
• 2:43
  Speaker 1: chef immediately set his knife down and just put his
• 2:46
  Speaker 1: hands up and was like, look, it's not my fault.
• 2:48
  Speaker 1: He said he had also noticed that the food tasted
• 2:51
  Speaker 1: really weird, but he didn't know why. All of his
• 2:55
  Speaker 1: ingredients were fresh. He hadn't changed any of his recipes, like,
• 2:58
  Speaker 1: he didn't get it. However, the chef said he had
• 3:01
  Speaker 1: talked to some other chefs who worked at different restaurants
• 3:03
  Speaker 1: in the area and they were saying the same thing,
• 3:06
  Speaker 1: that people are saying their food tastes bad and they
• 3:08
  Speaker 1: don't know why. So the chef said, like, whatever's going
• 3:11
  Speaker 1: on here, it's affecting everybody. And so the next morning,
• 3:15
  Speaker 1: Lee met up with a bunch of these other restaurant
• 3:17
  Speaker 1: managers in the neighborhood to talk about the problems that
• 3:20
  Speaker 1: they were all having with their food, and very quickly
• 3:23
  Speaker 1: he realized, one it was true that these other restaurants
• 3:26
  Speaker 1: were having this same issue, and two they all learned
• 3:30
  Speaker 1: that they were all sourcing one ingredient from the same place,
• 3:34
  Speaker 1: and so they all figured that it was this ingredient
• 3:37
  Speaker 1: that was the problem, and they needed to get together
• 3:40
  Speaker 1: and call the supplier and figure out what was wrong.
• 3:43
  Speaker 1: Later that same day, a man named Yong Guai show
• 3:47
  Speaker 1: walked along a rugged dirt path of a steep hill
• 3:50
  Speaker 1: not far from the restaurant that Lee managed. Yong worked
• 3:53
  Speaker 1: for the supplier that Lee and the other restaurant managers
• 3:55
  Speaker 1: had called, and now he was going to inspect this
• 3:59
  Speaker 1: ingredient they thought was making all of their food taste bad,
• 4:02
  Speaker 1: and Young admittedly really wasn't sure what to expect. The
• 4:05
  Speaker 1: supplier he worked for didn't usually get any complaints, and
• 4:09
  Speaker 1: the specific ingredient that these restaurant managers were worried.
• 4:12
  Speaker 2: About was normally very good.
• 4:14
  Speaker 1: But Young did think it was possible that maybe the
• 4:17
  Speaker 1: ingredient could have been tainted somehow, you know, maybe because
• 4:20
  Speaker 1: rats had gotten into the building where they stored it
• 4:22
  Speaker 1: or something.
• 4:23
  Speaker 2: So young heiked to the top of the hill where
• 4:25
  Speaker 2: there was a tall concrete storage building.
• 4:28
  Speaker 1: He climbed up a rusty metal ladder to the top
• 4:30
  Speaker 1: of the building and then opened up a door and
• 4:33
  Speaker 1: went inside. It was dark inside, which he expected, so
• 4:36
  Speaker 1: he pulled out his flashlight and he turned it on,
• 4:38
  Speaker 1: and he sort of expected to maybe see some rats,
• 4:41
  Speaker 1: but when he looked around, he didn't see any. However,
• 4:44
  Speaker 1: he did see something right beyond where he was standing,
• 4:47
  Speaker 1: basically right inside this room.
• 4:49
  Speaker 2: There was this large.
• 4:51
  Speaker 1: Canvas bag that definitely should not have been in there,
• 4:55
  Speaker 1: and so young he just reached out instinctively and began
• 4:58
  Speaker 1: to poke the bag and something out of it, And
• 5:00
  Speaker 1: for a second, Yong couldn't even process what he was seeing.
• 5:04
  Speaker 1: But then all at once he understood, and suddenly everything
• 5:08
  Speaker 1: made sense. He scrambled out of the building, went down
• 5:10
  Speaker 1: the ladder, and ran to go call the police. It
• 5:13
  Speaker 1: would turn out the ingredient that all the restaurants had
• 5:16
  Speaker 1: in common was their water, and so when Yong went
• 5:19
  Speaker 1: into the water tower and saw that canvas bag, well,
• 5:23
  Speaker 1: what came rolling out of it was a decomposing human head,
• 5:27
  Speaker 1: which meant for two full weeks every restaurant nearby had
• 5:32
  Speaker 1: been cooking their food with water that was tainted.
• 5:36
  Speaker 2: By a rotting corpse.
• 5:38
  Speaker 1: The police would later determine that the body belonged to
• 5:40
  Speaker 1: a man from another town who had been robbed and
• 5:43
  Speaker 1: killed by three members of an organized crime group. Those
• 5:46
  Speaker 1: three men were found they were arrested, found guilty, and
• 5:49
  Speaker 1: sentenced to death. On the evening of March fifth, nineteen
• 6:05
  Speaker 1: fifty eight, a twenty two year old man named Kasim
• 6:07
  Speaker 1: bin Osman was eating dinner inside of his home in
• 6:10
  Speaker 1: a small town in modern day Malaysia when he suddenly
• 6:13
  Speaker 1: heard somebody frantically pounding at his front door.
• 6:16
  Speaker 2: Kasim was not expecting any.
• 6:17
  Speaker 1: Guests, but he also wasn't really surprised by the noise
• 6:21
  Speaker 1: because Kasim was something called a bomo, which was basically
• 6:25
  Speaker 1: like a shaman. He was very well known and highly
• 6:28
  Speaker 1: respected in town, and so it was not unusual for
• 6:31
  Speaker 1: people to show up at his house sort of unexpectedly
• 6:34
  Speaker 1: asking for help with various spiritual problems.
• 6:37
  Speaker 2: So Kasim got up and he.
• 6:38
  Speaker 1: Went to answer the door, and when he did, he
• 6:41
  Speaker 1: saw four men standing on his porch and he vaguely
• 6:44
  Speaker 1: recognized them like he'd seen them around town before. One
• 6:47
  Speaker 1: of the men introduced himself as Cor Aguan, and Cor
• 6:50
  Speaker 1: said he needed Kassim's help because last night his wife
• 6:53
  Speaker 1: had gone missing. He'd spent all day searching and still
• 6:56
  Speaker 1: couldn't find her, and so he hoped that maybe Kasim
• 6:59
  Speaker 1: could help. And when he heard this, Casim felt a
• 7:01
  Speaker 1: little bit uncomfortable. Generally speaking, he was very confident in
• 7:05
  Speaker 1: his abilities as a healer, which was primarily what he did.
• 7:09
  Speaker 1: He was like a spiritual healer, but he never helped
• 7:13
  Speaker 1: find a missing person before. So Kasim was honest and
• 7:16
  Speaker 1: told Korr that he really didn't know if he could help,
• 7:19
  Speaker 1: but he would try. And so Kasim invited all four
• 7:22
  Speaker 1: men into his home, into his living room, and then
• 7:24
  Speaker 1: while they were sitting down, he went into his supply
• 7:27
  Speaker 1: room and he grabbed some matches and this large bowl
• 7:29
  Speaker 1: that was filled with charcoal, and then with these supplies
• 7:33
  Speaker 1: he went back and met the group. Casim then instructed
• 7:35
  Speaker 1: everybody to sit in a circle on the floor. He
• 7:37
  Speaker 1: explained that he was going to do a meditation ritual
• 7:40
  Speaker 1: that was meant to help him clear his mind so
• 7:43
  Speaker 1: he could tap into the energies around him. Ideally, he
• 7:47
  Speaker 1: said he would be able through this process to connect
• 7:51
  Speaker 1: to Korr's wife's energy, so he could maybe find her.
• 7:55
  Speaker 1: And so the group, after sitting down and sort of
• 7:57
  Speaker 1: understanding the instructions, Kasim a match and then lit the
• 8:01
  Speaker 1: charcoal on fire that was in this bowl.
• 8:03
  Speaker 2: Then Cassim actually leaned his head over this you know.
• 8:06
  Speaker 1: Smoldering bowl of charcoal and began taking in these huge
• 8:10
  Speaker 1: breaths of smoke. And he kept inhaling the smoke until
• 8:14
  Speaker 1: he felt so lightheaded that he was about to pass out.
• 8:17
  Speaker 1: And right as he's on the verge of losing consciousness,
• 8:21
  Speaker 1: an image flashed through his mind.
• 8:23
  Speaker 2: For a split second.
• 8:24
  Speaker 1: What he saw was this this light green field that
• 8:27
  Speaker 1: seemed to extend, you know, into.
• 8:29
  Speaker 2: Infinity, just a massive green field.
• 8:31
  Speaker 1: And so at this point Casim he snapped his head back,
• 8:34
  Speaker 1: stopped breathing in all the smoke, and he told Korr
• 8:37
  Speaker 1: and the other men that he knew where they needed
• 8:40
  Speaker 1: to go. About fifteen minutes later, Kasim, Korr, and the
• 8:43
  Speaker 1: other man walked into a light green field that was
• 8:47
  Speaker 1: identical to the one Kasim had seen in his mind.
• 8:49
  Speaker 2: It was a huge rice paddy right on the edge
• 8:51
  Speaker 2: of town.
• 8:52
  Speaker 1: And so when they got to this rice paddy, they
• 8:54
  Speaker 1: split up and just began looking for I guess clues
• 8:57
  Speaker 1: or maybe four Corp's wife.
• 8:59
  Speaker 2: They didn't even know.
• 9:00
  Speaker 1: And very quickly one of the men yells out that
• 9:02
  Speaker 1: he's found something, and so Kasim and Korr and the
• 9:05
  Speaker 1: others they joined this guy and they look down and
• 9:08
  Speaker 1: they see there's like this, this pile of straw that's
• 9:11
  Speaker 1: covering something pretty sizable in the rice patty. Eventually, one
• 9:15
  Speaker 1: of the men reached down and began removing the straw,
• 9:18
  Speaker 1: and at the base of it, underneath this big pile
• 9:21
  Speaker 1: was Kor's wife, and she was covered in blood and
• 9:24
  Speaker 1: she was dead. About thirty minutes later, a police officer
• 9:27
  Speaker 1: named J. C. Sabui sat inside of an interview room
• 9:30
  Speaker 1: at the police station with Korr, the dead woman's husband.
• 9:33
  Speaker 1: By this point, Sabui had been briefed on the details
• 9:36
  Speaker 1: of this case. He knew that Kor's wife had gone
• 9:39
  Speaker 1: missing about twenty four hours earlier, that the town Bomo
• 9:42
  Speaker 1: had apparently had this vision that led them to the
• 9:45
  Speaker 1: rice patty where her body was found, and that officers
• 9:48
  Speaker 1: had actually already determined that she'd been beaten to death.
• 9:51
  Speaker 2: Now, Sabui was trying to hone in on.
• 9:54
  Speaker 1: Potential suspects, and the victim's husband was the most obvious
• 9:58
  Speaker 1: place to start, so sa Corr to tell him more
• 10:01
  Speaker 1: about the circumstances around his wife's disappearance. Corer explained that
• 10:05
  Speaker 1: the night before, she had left on her own to
• 10:08
  Speaker 1: go for a late night walk and never came home.
• 10:11
  Speaker 1: He said he didn't know of anybody who would have
• 10:13
  Speaker 1: wanted to hurt her, but he did have a theory
• 10:15
  Speaker 1: about her murder. He said his wife normally wore a
• 10:18
  Speaker 1: lot of jewelry, but when he'd seen her body in
• 10:21
  Speaker 1: the rice patty, he noticed all of her jewelry was gone,
• 10:24
  Speaker 1: so he wondered if maybe she'd been robbed.
• 10:27
  Speaker 2: Sabui thought the idea that this woman just.
• 10:29
  Speaker 1: Went on a random nighttime walk by herself right before
• 10:33
  Speaker 1: she went missing and turned up dead, it just seemed
• 10:35
  Speaker 1: sort of unlikely, and it also seemed like Corr was
• 10:39
  Speaker 1: just really eager to throw.
• 10:40
  Speaker 2: Suspicion off of himself.
• 10:42
  Speaker 1: But the robbery angle also did sound plausible, I mean,
• 10:45
  Speaker 1: turning up with no jewelry on when she normally wore
• 10:48
  Speaker 1: jewelry suggests the robbery. So Sabui decided to follow up
• 10:52
  Speaker 1: both on the husband and the robbery angle, and he
• 10:55
  Speaker 1: and his team would spend the next four days searching
• 10:58
  Speaker 1: for evidence against Korr and for this missing jewelry, but
• 11:02
  Speaker 1: they came up totally empty, and so ninety six hours
• 11:05
  Speaker 1: into this investigation, they basically had nothing to show for it,
• 11:09
  Speaker 1: and so as a result, he sort of felt desperate,
• 11:12
  Speaker 1: and even though he didn't normally believe in the town
• 11:14
  Speaker 1: Bomo's visions or magic, he felt like, you know, it
• 11:18
  Speaker 1: was one of his visions that led to this body.
• 11:21
  Speaker 1: You know, maybe he actually is as good as he
• 11:23
  Speaker 1: says he is. Why don't we ask him what he thinks.
• 11:26
  Speaker 1: On the morning of March ninth, so this is four
• 11:28
  Speaker 1: days after courus wife's body was found, Subui knocked on
• 11:32
  Speaker 1: the town Bomo's front door, and when Kasim answered, Sabui
• 11:36
  Speaker 1: explained the situation about how you know, there was missing
• 11:39
  Speaker 1: jewelry and maybe it was a robbery and they didn't
• 11:41
  Speaker 1: know what and they asked if Kasim would be willing
• 11:44
  Speaker 1: to help, since, I mean, after all, he had already
• 11:46
  Speaker 1: found the body. Now, Kasim was not particularly eager to
• 11:50
  Speaker 1: be a part of this investigation. I mean, he openly said, like,
• 11:53
  Speaker 1: I don't solve crimes. I'm a spiritual healer. But you know,
• 11:57
  Speaker 1: he had to admit that he's already gotten He's the
• 12:00
  Speaker 1: one whose vision led to the finding of the body,
• 12:03
  Speaker 1: and so he told Sabui that of course he would try.
• 12:05
  Speaker 1: So Sabui watched as Kasim left the door and went
• 12:09
  Speaker 1: into his house and then came back with a bowl
• 12:11
  Speaker 1: of charcoal, and before long, Casim had lit it on
• 12:14
  Speaker 1: fire and was deeply inhaling the fumes coming off of it.
• 12:18
  Speaker 1: And after a minute or two, when Kasim was like
• 12:21
  Speaker 1: totally messed up from breathing in all this smoke, he
• 12:24
  Speaker 1: looked up and he said, he's had another vision, and
• 12:26
  Speaker 1: so he jumped up. He left his house and began
• 12:29
  Speaker 1: walking down the street, and Subui just followed right behind him,
• 12:33
  Speaker 1: and Sabui watched as Kasim would stop in front of
• 12:35
  Speaker 1: each house and for a few moments he would just
• 12:38
  Speaker 1: stare at the house, and then eventually he would just
• 12:40
  Speaker 1: move on to the next one. Kasim looped all around town,
• 12:43
  Speaker 1: just stopping and staring at all these houses for literally hours,
• 12:47
  Speaker 1: and to Subui, he was starting to feel like it
• 12:50
  Speaker 1: was a mistake to bring Kasim in because it just
• 12:53
  Speaker 1: seemed like this isn't going anywhere. His ability to find
• 12:56
  Speaker 1: the body happened pretty much right away.
• 12:59
  Speaker 2: What is this like? What is he doing?
• 13:00
  Speaker 1: However, out of nowhere, Kasim stopped in front of yet
• 13:03
  Speaker 1: another house, stared at it for a second, and then
• 13:07
  Speaker 1: turned and told Sabui, this is where the jewelry is.
• 13:11
  Speaker 2: And this actually.
• 13:12
  Speaker 1: Made Subui feel very intrigued because of all the houses
• 13:17
  Speaker 1: that he thought Kasim might eventually stop in front of
• 13:20
  Speaker 1: and suggest there was some clue inside, you know, let
• 13:23
  Speaker 1: alone the jewelry inside this particular house had never entered
• 13:28
  Speaker 1: Sabui's mind. So given the weirdness of where they now
• 13:31
  Speaker 1: were standing, Sabui called for backup, and then he and
• 13:35
  Speaker 1: a team of officers searched this house and lo and behold,
• 13:38
  Speaker 1: they found Kor's wife's missing jewelry inside, just like Kasim
• 13:42
  Speaker 1: had said. And so despite Sabui's you know, growing skepticism
• 13:46
  Speaker 1: around what Kasim can actually do, I mean, this was
• 13:49
  Speaker 1: now the second time that Kasim had sort of had
• 13:52
  Speaker 1: this big breakthrough in the case from his visions like
• 13:55
  Speaker 1: that was incredible. But the problem was the house that
• 13:59
  Speaker 1: Kasim had led them.
• 14:00
  Speaker 2: To where the jewelry was was Kassim's own house.
• 14:04
  Speaker 1: It would turn out Cour's wife really did go on
• 14:06
  Speaker 1: a walk by herself on the night she disappeared, but
• 14:09
  Speaker 1: during that walk she passed by Cassim's house, and when
• 14:13
  Speaker 1: she did, Cassim attacked and killed her, and then stole
• 14:17
  Speaker 1: her jewelry and hid her body in the rice patty.
• 14:20
  Speaker 1: Apparently he thought pretending to help with the investigation would
• 14:23
  Speaker 1: make him look innocent, but the police quickly realized he
• 14:27
  Speaker 1: wasn't magical, he.
• 14:28
  Speaker 2: Was just guilty.
• 14:29
  Speaker 1: After his arrest, Cassim would give a full confession, and
• 14:32
  Speaker 1: he was ultimately convicted of murder and sentenced to death.
• 14:49
  Speaker 1: At eight am on August twenty second, nineteen seventy four,
• 14:53
  Speaker 1: a young man named Leo Fong sat on a long
• 14:55
  Speaker 1: bench inside of a public mortuary in Hong Kong. He
• 14:59
  Speaker 1: was sitting with about a a dozen of his closest
• 15:01
  Speaker 1: family members, and they were all facing the front of
• 15:03
  Speaker 1: the room looking at an open wooden coffin. Inside of
• 15:06
  Speaker 1: the coffin was the body of Fung's older sister, thirty
• 15:10
  Speaker 1: four year old Liu Fumin.
• 15:11
  Speaker 2: Today was her funeral and it.
• 15:13
  Speaker 1: Was supposed to be a time for Fung and his
• 15:15
  Speaker 1: family to come together and privately mourn their loss. But
• 15:19
  Speaker 1: they couldn't do that because they were literally outnumbered by
• 15:22
  Speaker 1: the amount of newspaper.
• 15:24
  Speaker 2: Reporters who were also in the room.
• 15:25
  Speaker 1: And the reporters were milling around, taking notes and even
• 15:29
  Speaker 1: taking pictures of the body in the coffin, And this
• 15:32
  Speaker 1: really upset Fung because in his mind, the reporters were
• 15:35
  Speaker 1: not treating his sister like a person. They were treating
• 15:38
  Speaker 1: her like, you know, the salacious headline she'd become ever
• 15:41
  Speaker 1: since her death. So one week earlier, Fung's sister, Fumin,
• 15:45
  Speaker 1: had been found strangled to death in a hotel room
• 15:48
  Speaker 1: in Hong Kong. She had clearly been murdered, but that
• 15:51
  Speaker 1: was not what had made her case such big news.
• 15:52
  Speaker 2: What had made it news.
• 15:54
  Speaker 1: Was the fact that Fumin had been found without her face,
• 16:00
  Speaker 1: had cut off her eyebrows, her eyelids, her nose, and
• 16:03
  Speaker 1: her lips, and so now as she lay in her
• 16:06
  Speaker 1: open coffin, she looked grotesque. Since she didn't have eyelids,
• 16:11
  Speaker 1: it looked like she was staring straight up at the
• 16:13
  Speaker 1: ceiling with these huge glassy eyes and without lips, it
• 16:17
  Speaker 1: looked like she was baring her teeth in this horrible.
• 16:20
  Speaker 2: Morbid smile.
• 16:22
  Speaker 1: But for Fung and probably the rest of his family,
• 16:24
  Speaker 1: the worst part of all of this was not even
• 16:27
  Speaker 1: you know, the media attention.
• 16:29
  Speaker 2: It was the police response.
• 16:30
  Speaker 1: They hadn't arrested anyone for the crime, yet his sister's
• 16:34
  Speaker 1: murder was still unsolved, and so as Fung is watching
• 16:37
  Speaker 1: these reporters mill about treating his sister like she's just
• 16:41
  Speaker 1: some you know, freak show, and he's thinking about how
• 16:43
  Speaker 1: disrespectful her killer was to her body, and how the
• 16:46
  Speaker 1: police seemed so incompetent.
• 16:48
  Speaker 2: It made him just so mad. But there was one
• 16:53
  Speaker 2: thing that did bring him comfort, and that was the
• 16:56
  Speaker 2: fact that he had.
• 16:57
  Speaker 1: Actually come up with a plan that he will would
• 17:00
  Speaker 1: help him solve his sister's murder, and today he was
• 17:04
  Speaker 1: going to put that plan into action. Fung sat quietly
• 17:07
  Speaker 1: with his family throughout the funeral service and tried his
• 17:09
  Speaker 1: best to ignore the reporters. And then, finally, when it
• 17:12
  Speaker 1: was time for everybody to say their final goodbyes to
• 17:15
  Speaker 1: his sister, Fung walked up to the front of the room.
• 17:19
  Speaker 2: He reached into the pocket of his jacket and he
• 17:22
  Speaker 2: pulled out a giant knife.
• 17:24
  Speaker 1: The next evening, on August twenty third, a police officer
• 17:27
  Speaker 1: was doing her regular nighttime patrol through a neighborhood in
• 17:30
  Speaker 1: Hong Kong that was not very far from where Liu
• 17:33
  Speaker 1: Fumin's funeral had been held the day before. And as
• 17:35
  Speaker 1: this policewoman was walking along, she glanced down an alleyway
• 17:40
  Speaker 1: and she saw something that made her immediately stop.
• 17:42
  Speaker 2: On her tracks.
• 17:43
  Speaker 1: There was a guy who was just laying on the ground,
• 17:45
  Speaker 1: basically laying in this limp heap, and when she walked
• 17:49
  Speaker 1: up to him, she could see there was blood all
• 17:51
  Speaker 1: over him and some of his limbs were twisted and
• 17:54
  Speaker 1: contorted and obviously broken. I mean, he looked like he
• 17:57
  Speaker 1: had fallen from a great height. The policewoman immediately called
• 18:00
  Speaker 1: an ambulance and then ran to the man's side, and
• 18:04
  Speaker 1: sort of unbelievably, she found he was still alive, and
• 18:07
  Speaker 1: so she asked him what happened, and the guy, who's
• 18:10
  Speaker 1: obviously in pain, he just kind of looked up towards
• 18:13
  Speaker 1: like the building right next to them, and as he's
• 18:15
  Speaker 1: looking up, he said a woman had pushed him. When
• 18:18
  Speaker 1: more officers arrived on the scene, they went to search
• 18:21
  Speaker 1: for this woman who apparently was up on the roof,
• 18:24
  Speaker 1: but there was no evidence of a woman or any
• 18:27
  Speaker 1: kind of struggle at all anywhere on the top of
• 18:29
  Speaker 1: the building or in the top floors of the building.
• 18:31
  Speaker 1: There just was no sign that anything had happened. It
• 18:34
  Speaker 1: was not until the police went to the hospital and
• 18:36
  Speaker 1: reinterviewed the injured man and he gave them a fuller
• 18:40
  Speaker 1: statement about exactly who this woman was that they understood
• 18:45
  Speaker 1: why it all had to do with Leo Fung, the
• 18:48
  Speaker 1: brother of the murdered woman, and what he had done
• 18:51
  Speaker 1: with that knife at her funeral. So, when the injured
• 18:55
  Speaker 1: man sort of came to in the hospital and he
• 18:57
  Speaker 1: had stabilized a little bit, and the police showed up
• 19:00
  Speaker 1: up and asked him to give more information about who
• 19:02
  Speaker 1: pushed him off the roof.
• 19:04
  Speaker 2: This was his description of the woman, the woman who
• 19:06
  Speaker 2: pushed him.
• 19:07
  Speaker 3: He said, she had these big, horrible glassy eyes and
• 19:11
  Speaker 3: this awful toothy grin, and she had no eyebrows, she
• 19:15
  Speaker 3: had no eyelids, her nose was gone, her lips were gone.
• 19:18
  Speaker 2: She looked horrifying.
• 19:19
  Speaker 1: Obviously, he was basically describing the murdered woman.
• 19:23
  Speaker 2: Liu Fumin.
• 19:24
  Speaker 1: But she was dead, like literally dead when he got
• 19:27
  Speaker 1: pushed off the roof, and so the police are like,
• 19:29
  Speaker 1: that's not possible. A dead woman could not have pushed
• 19:32
  Speaker 1: you off the roof. But wait, her brother, the murdered
• 19:35
  Speaker 1: victim's brother, Liu Fung, at the funeral when he pulled
• 19:39
  Speaker 1: out that knife. He then went on to perform this
• 19:42
  Speaker 1: ancient Taoist ritual where he stabbed the knife into his
• 19:46
  Speaker 1: sister's wooden coffin, which he believed would unleash her spirit
• 19:50
  Speaker 1: so it could go find and take revenge on her killer.
• 19:55
  Speaker 1: And apparently it worked, because the man in the alleyway,
• 19:59
  Speaker 1: after described being effectively the ghost of this murdered woman,
• 20:03
  Speaker 1: then gave a full confession saying.
• 20:05
  Speaker 2: He was her killer.
• 20:07
  Speaker 1: He would say that the reason he did it is
• 20:09
  Speaker 1: because she rejected his marriage proposal, who means killer was
• 20:13
  Speaker 1: ultimately arrested, convicted of manslaughter, and sentenced to ten.
• 20:17
  Speaker 2: Years in prison. Thank you so much for watching.
