From the beginning of the trial and throughout the entire trial, Nguyen Xuan Tu (born in 1979, residing in Phu Son commune, Tan Ky district) kept crying. His face showed obvious fatigue and sadness. Perhaps the past few days were a torture for Tu when he learned the truth that he had lost his mother forever. And the one who killed his mother was none other than himself.

Tu is the fourth of six children of Mrs. Bui Thi L. and her husband. Having little education, Tu mainly earned a living by doing hard manual labor when he reached adulthood. About ten years ago, Tu got married to a wife who was 6 years younger than him. Life was still difficult, so Tu's family lived with his parents in the old house. Every day, Tu did many jobs to make a living, while his wife took care of the housework and raised the children. The peaceful life of that family continued until that fateful day...

Tu cried as he recounted the heartbreaking story. It was the evening of October 6, 2020, when Tu attended a wedding in a neighborhood. He returned home late at night and had a lot of alcohol in his system. Seeing his wife teaching the children, Tu went to bed. About 15 minutes later, because he was thirsty, Tu woke up and went downstairs to his parents' house to get a drink of water.
At this time, a conflict arose between Tu and his biological mother. A moment later, Tu went out into the yard and threatened to slash his mother. At that time, Mrs. L. was sitting in the house and said: "You slash". Tu replied: "I'm coming out". When Mrs. L. had just gone out, Tu took a machete and slashed her 3 times in the shoulder, back, and stomach, causing the victim to fall to the ground, blood flowing all over her body. Only when he saw his mother fall to the ground and die did Tu regain consciousness. Knowing that he had murdered his mother, Tu was scared and remorseful, lying down, hugging Mrs. L.'s body and crying.

At the same time, Tu's wife heard the noise and ran out to witness the horrifying scene. She immediately called the neighbors for help. After that, Tu stood up, went into the kitchen, took a sharp knife and stabbed himself in the stomach with the intention of committing suicide, but was discovered by people and taken to the hospital for emergency treatment. The investigation agency determined that the cause of death of the victim was "severe shock due to multiple injuries".
Late tears
At the trial that day, Tu cried continuously, showing remorse, crying for the sins he had committed, crying for killing his mother just because of anger while drunk.
The defendant stated that he did not have any major conflicts with his mother, but that he was drunk and lost control of his actions. The defendant stated that he swung the knife.cutThe defendant was unconscious, only when his mother lay down, bleeding did he suddenly wake up. All of Tu's siblings urgently begged the jury to consider reducing the sentence so that Tu could return home soon to take care of his children.

Listening to her husband’s testimony, the wife repeatedly lowered her head and her shoulders shook. In just a moment, she had to witness the heartbreaking scene of her family. Attending the trial as a person with related rights, she asked the court to reduce the sentence for the defendant. The husband of the victim, who is also the defendant’s biological father, did not attend the trial but did not ask the defendant to pay any compensation and filed a petition to reduce the defendant’s sentence.

Receiving the forgiveness of the victim's representative, Tu burst into tears, bowed his head and apologized to his entire family. In his final words, the defendant asked the court to consider reducing his sentence so that he could return home soon to take care of his elderly father, pay respects to his deceased mother, and make up for his mistakes with his wife and children.
The panel of judges determined that Nguyen Xuan Tu's actions were particularly serious, killing his biological mother, causing public outrage... requiring a suitable sentence. However, during the investigation and trial, the defendant confessed honestly, repented, and the legal representative of the victim filed a petition for a reduced sentence.


Considering the entire case, the aggravating and mitigating circumstances, the panel sentenced Nguyen Xuan Tu to 20 years in prison for "Murder". Regarding civil liability, because the victim did not request it, the court did not consider it.


Because of his drunken anger, the defendant took the life of his own mother, and for the rest of his life, he will never stop regretting his wrongdoing. That wound will forever be in his heart.
