Nguyen Viet Hung (32 years old), residing in Dien Lam commune, Dien Chau district, is married. Hung's wife is 4 years younger than her husband. The couple has a child together, about 1 year old. The life of a young family with 3 members is the dream of many people.

But the peaceful life of the couple was disturbed by Hung's unreasonable jealousy. The husband's blind jealousy along with hisconflictin life causing the young family to fall into tragedy.

The reason was that Hung suspected that Mr. Bui TN (31 years old), residing in Dien Kim commune, Dien Chau district, had an affair with his wife. The suspicion grew, so at noon on February 11, Hung had the idea of ​​going to find Mr. N. to resolve the conflict.

Thinking and doing, Hung stopped by a relative's house to borrow a motorbike as a means of transportation. On the way, he stopped at a house, pretended to go to the toilet, and took a knife, which he hid in his pants.

At around 12:40 p.m. the same day, Hung went to Mr. N's house. At that time, Mr. N. was singing karaoke alone in the living room, so Hung looked through the crack in the door and said: "Brother, open the door for me to ask a question." Thinking that he was an acquaintance, the homeowner opened the door and was immediately slashed on the head and shoulder by Nguyen Viet Hung with a knife. Being slashed unexpectedly, Mr. N. pushed Hung out into the yard and tried to run away but failed.

Although Mr. N. resisted and shouted, "Speak slowly," Hung still slashed him three times on the head, neck, and hip. He was repeatedly stabbed by the unknown person, causing the victim to fall to his knees.

The incident only stopped when Mr. N. got up and pushed Hung away and ran out into the street to call for help. Afterwards, Mr. N. was taken to the hospital by local people for emergency treatment. Authorities determined that the victim's disability rate was 26%. After committing the crime, Hung threw away the knife and went home. Afterwards, the subject turned himself in to the police, admitting to his crime.

Price

With the above actions, Nguyen Viet Hung was prosecuted and brought to trial for the crime of "Murder". Standing before the witness stand, facing the panel of judges, the defendant admitted all the crimes as charged in the indictment. However, explaining his actions, the defendant said that he had only heard rumors and had no evidence that Mr. N. had a relationship with his wife. The defendant stated that that day, because he wanted to clarify all suspicions, he met Mr. N. to talk.

The judge immediately asked: "The defendant said he wanted to meet the victim to talk, but why did he take out a knife and slash him repeatedly when the victim opened the door?". In response to the above question, the defendant was silent for a moment and then said that he had lost his mind due to anger.

According to the defendant Hung, before the incident, there was a conflict between the defendant and his wife. The reason was that the defendant's wife had a dream about lottery numbers and told a friend. Knowing the story, the defendant advised his wife not to do so, as it would help them become addicted to lottery and gambling. From the above conflict and the suspicion that his wife was "cuckolding" him, the defendant committed an illegal act.

Quietly sitting in court as a victim, Mr. N. bowed his head several times. He stated that he did not know the defendant or his wife. He lived and worked in Hanoi, only occasionally returning to his hometown, but he did not understand why Hung was unreasonably jealous. The defendant coming to his house and then holding a knife to slash someone shocked him and greatly affected his health, spirit, and honor.

According to the victim, after the incident, many people gossiped about him, affecting his family's life. The victim said that the incident caused by the defendant had seriously affected his reputation and honor. Therefore, the victim asked the defendant to publicly apologize to him. At the trial, the defendant turned to apologize to Mr. N. and said that he had been misunderstood. The defendant asked the court to consider reducing his sentence so that he could return to rebuild his life soon.

The panel of judges determined that the defendant's act of stabbing the victim multiple times was a crime of "Murder". The victim survived thanks to timely emergency care. Therefore, a severe sentence is needed for general deterrence and prevention.

However, considering that the defendant had many mitigating circumstances such as honestly confessing, repenting, turning himself in, and at the same time, influencing the family to partially compensate the victim for the damage... Considering the entire case, the panel sentenced Nguyen Viet Hung to 9 years in prison for the crime of "Murder".

Because of blind jealousy, Hung was pushed into prison. Then, when he turned back, it was too late, the defendant had to accept the days of losing freedom behind prison doors.
