In recent unfortunate news, 34-year-old A and his 63-year-old mother B were arrested for the attempted murder of his 72-year-old father E.
According to reports, the mother and son pair conspired to murder his father and acquire insurance money as the son had trouble gathering finances for a marriage fund. Son A and mother B as well as 43-year-old accomplice C and 32-year-old accomplice D were officially taken in by police at the Daegu Dongbu Police Station on October 16.
The mother of A is said to have instructed C on how to kill her husband, including informing accomplice C about her husband's normal driving route. In a twisted turn of events, A's mother requested she herself was murdered after her husband's assassination failed. A's mother is reported to have suggested her son call a hit on her instead to receive 600 million Won ($532,580.64 USD) in insurance money.
Son A and accomplice D as well as mother B agreed to split the insurance money among the surviving conspirators, agreeing to kill A's mother two months after the father's attempted murder on August 6. The plan was for accomplice D to ram into B with a vehicle, but it failed when she moved out of the way as she was drunk. The son then requested another attempt at murdering his mother from accomplice D, threatening to murder D if he refused.
THIS IS SOOOO TWISTED!
I mean, the mother even volunteered to be murdered!
